Short Repayment Poems

I splat the slim cigarette's ashes onto the pavement,
Little to no care of my own psychological impairment,
While living through life with no means of any repayment.

I asked you to remain my student
But you wanted to teach
The balance between us changing
Our past out of reach
I gave what I could to your memory
And you borrowed the rest
Repayment to be due on arrival
  —as you fly from the nest

Been there for years,
Every laugh, every tear
Supportive and true, 
This I have found in you.

For all you have done, 
Repayment, you have asked none.
I hope to be here,
Every laugh, every tear
Need help, call on me
Dear friend, you will see
Supportive and true I am to you too....

Delicious sweets of red and green:
I know not where else they be seen.
Such amount and diversity!

Great caretakers of peace and love.
Their faces beam bright from above.
A friendship great between us lies.

Grand treasures from those brown;
yet, for repayment we cut them down.
Is usury just gratuity?...

If I was a loan shark
I would fail
some can ask exorbitant prices
I cannot ask for money at all

Some loan sharks demand thirty-percent interest
I would not even be able to ask for my initial investment.
always been shy about asking for repayment.

I would have to gift everyone their money
and I would go broke
it is my way...

As the lore goes,she is a ghost of the past, 

trapped in the form of a mountain 

her curse long ago cast. 



Man's punishment she will never forgive, 



We ask the mountain for her coal, 

and she sees her oppurtunity, 

to avenge her cursed soul. 

When we take the coveted and prized mud, 

the mountain requiers a repayment, 

and she demands it in the form of blood....

Planning your demise is like 
walking on a tight rope    
realising there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old self-
defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time....

To ask for help,
is not an easy thing,
but life is unpredictable,
and can trash your dreams.
One misfortune,
can leave you in such a mess,
then you realize,
that need, you must confess.
Every now, and then,
one good heart will prevail,
that generous one,
will make your bail.
Always remember,
repayment is due,
because their kindness,
rescued you.
Stand by your word,
honor their trust,
pay them back,
this is a must....

The Death


It will knock everyone’s door
It may be today or later
It is neither an end nor a loss
Just a change in the changing world
In death, nothing we loose and
Nothing we gain
It is just a repayment to the lender
We can dodge to a certain extent but
We cannot evade once for all
It has no affection or aversion
It will come and takes with him with just
