the brightest stars can burn out

but stays warm...

A nice funeral
Your framed picture
Couple of candles burn out
We move on to the next thing....

When I am idle and alone…

That is when the good possibilities are ruled out. 

It is like watching a hundred shooting stars burn out forever....

still, non-dynamic study
of my
liquid leftovers sliding down her collapsed body   
burn-out lust 
wasted hardcore vigor  
for an ancient misinterpretation of genitals....

at a thousand feet – burn out

You can’t burn out
if you’re not on fire

Jim roaming wild
pyre to pyre

The only way out
the only way in

Flaming the moment
—death rebegins

something you cant digest.

Soon, I’ll stop this speed poetry.
Ink will dry into gun powder.
One last spark fueled by mental friction.
Poof.
Whoosh.
Up goes inspiration in conflagration.
Just ashes remain, unfit to even nourish Sari....

Wiped the tears from my eyes.
Starting over clean without your lies.
Have to go,I can not stay.
I love myself in a brand new way.

Do not let the color turn beige.
The rainbow is bright,
And There is gold at the final bout 
Fight, fight and keep fighting .
Do not let your life to turn into a meaningless silhouette....

I'm not as strong as you think you are 
Seems like the stars are just meant to burn out and here we are daily...
Fading away... 
What was that?
Please repeat and explain what it is you're try to say...
Plotting the course...
On my way to... 
Just...
Hear your voice…...

Life is full of cross roads 
Its to short to waste time kissing toads
I want a love that will last
Not start out great and burn out fast

You say you love me and I do you
Then why do we do the things we do
Is it fear that pushes us 
Or was this love founded on trust...

Relentless days,
sleepless nights.

Longing-
peace,
never achieved.

Oh-bright Fire.

Never burn out-

Fortitude-
Passion-
Never waiver.

For within,

Relentless days-
Sleepless nights-

Lays a Fire,
brighter than Sun,
purest of Moon's glow.

Oh-bright Fire....

In the nighttime sky
Fiery stars bleed
Casting aside what binds them
Freeing themselves
From distant prisons
Never to come back
Jumping from invisible woes
Platforms deteriorate
Free-falling forever
Into outcast oblivion
Taking in the atmosphere
To burn out
And disappear...

here we go agin 
what do I get myself in 
once more I've got her crying
I gess I burn myself 
let me fly away 
fry out through the day 
melt away to no where 
what is that moon beam 
in green eyes 
my goddess in hur 
let me fly away 
my hart beat day by day 
to hur sweat warmth...

I had to flicker like a bengal light,
to feel as jolly and as cold 
first snowflake setting on the nose
to melt...

Once stars have vanished from our sights,
what mattered was not quality of clouds,
but weight of doubts 
has kept us safe enslaved
and promptly
                  burning out....

** This is a short poem that I wrote to brighten my friends day. Hopefully it will brighten yours as well.





Breathe and let your light burn out your problems.

Smile  for I will be right by you to help you out.



Now go ahead and  shine,

And let me see how your amazingness can light up this world....

In shadow, shade and angled light,
memories echo, when given time.
They persist, though out of sight,
when even bells will loose their chime.

To torture, teach or reprimand?
Why then comes, the weathered old?
The heart and soul hold scars and brands,
when even stars burn out, turn cold....

Rise up and smile
But dive back down.
There's no way out,
So keep that frown.

Close your eyes
And see her now.
You could neglect
If you knew how.

Don't burn out,
Love this cloud.
Live to one day
Make her proud.

Hold out your hand
And feel the ground.
It is nothing but
A dream you've found....
