courage of convictions gone
stand by and watch so many die
we ask ourselves the reason why...

your convictions
survive with
squinted eyes
making the
heart flourish but
the spirit dies
that truth shall
be nourished...

Without convictions, a man resembles

an aimlessly sailing boat, in which both the rudder

and

the anchor is missing!

Does it seem strange?
Men will sell their souls,
for votes.
Twisting their beliefs
into a rumpled heap.
Lubricated lies,
when they are greased,
slither and slide,
like a snake....

When we find our convictions attacked,
we rely on a deck neatly stacked.
There’s a cool little bias
that will always supply us
with a handy alternative fact....

surrounded by confusion 
surrounded by illusion 
surrounded all the time 

escaping my convictions
escaping my conclusions 
escaping nine to five

creating inner peace  
creating inner joy
creating debating lie...

Reflections replete with
reasoning can end deep
rooted convictions and
really show us that in
reality what we have been doing
repeatedly is illogical and needs to be
relooked and maybe 
refined.

Still have convictions - though often astray
Jesus prepared me come Judgement Day

Bust the wall of sin
Binding you within

For Him I'll sing
Let joy ring!

Devil's devices in heaven lost
Because Jesus paid the cost...

With a voracious appetite,
You start to consume my soul.
Eating away at my convictions,
And swallowing them whole.

My hunger grows as well,
As you slate your thirst.
And you fill my emptiness,
To the point I may burst....

Radiating warmth a personality so bright 
Overflowing charm to all in sight.

Courageous heart in every fight 
Her spirit strong and convictions right.

Enchanting grace her greatest might
Lover and seeker of God’s Light....

Cradled
to be a man;
with knowledge of wisdom.
True convictions lasting daily
never questioning why or answering
with an unintended motive.
Sacrificial and brave
which was born and
Cradled

'THINKING OUT LOUD'
~~~~~~~~~

If I could live by the courage of my convictions,
only the fittest would survive.
Am I a hypocrite? 
Yes,
but then aren't all humans when it comes to their
OWN FAMILY!...

My young daughter 
Can take care
Of herself
But she does not 
Whereas my 
Old age mother
Can’t take care 
Of herself
But still she does
Why so
because of wrong convictions
towards life
that are taught to us

(By Kishan Negi)...

Reflections replete with
reasoning can end deep
rooted convictions and
really show us that
reality has no
resemblence to what we
read in scriptures and books,

I watch her undress
Malevolence unbound
I want to caress
Morals confound

I watch her provoke
sinful depositions
I want to invoke
Lust's convictions

I sit and I stare
reluctantly still
My love, I shall dare
And beauty shall kill...

One can not fight in a war
when one does not believe in what one is fighting for.
One who would rather serve time in a jail cell
than throw their moral convictions to hell
is just as much a hero in my eyes
as any brave veteran recognized....

Emotions to fill the vastness of a lake.
       I think of you drowning in that lake.
       I offer you my hand, and
  lacking the courage 
 of your convictions
 you say no.
 And you wallow 
 in your sorrow,
   and the banks overflow....

He walked with the dignity of a 
kingdom as old as the written word.

The goodness and figure of a father,
he died under the sighs of the pharaohs.

The sacrificing Christ of his convictions,
unflinching, faced the lions of his legions....

Into your boat I found myself venturing, oh life

Rowing against the currents of your afflictions

Many times I thought you wished me to drown

Though you desired to forge my convictions!

The grass in not green on the other side
they'll tell you that to make you greedy it's a lie
they'll try to get you to turn on all your convictions
so you can become defenseless only to be controlled
by those who only know darkness the heartless claiming to be victims....
