Heart

Heart you are the destroyer
Heart you’re a killer
Why are you doing this to me?
Why don’t you do your functions? 
Stop to interfere with my other organs?

You are making a festival of diseases to my body
While you are incurable
You’re exposing me to high blood pressure
It requires a hypothetically proven cardiologist to operate you
Every time when I see something of beauty you intrude my mind

You’re making wrong decisions for me
You’re purpose is to pump blood and
Is to remove the waste products that I don’t need
Not to see outcomes of a decision before you commit them
Now I am friendless because of your companion jealousy

People asks themselves what can pass through me without an attempt 
My friends think that I am a copy cat because of you
A stone is sufficient to be your replacement if you were not my life support 
organ
Heart Stop intrusions and let my mind make decisions for me

At Night

At night life goes beyond limits
Shameful and fearless evaporates
Boys and girls tiptoe out of their abode to peculiar places
Blankets dances all the night

Even the gloomy is hailed with glamorous compliments
The sinner has a prerogative to sin
The dark hides us from the views
Only two witnesses are present
The moon and the stars

Aids

I am not afraid of Aids
You inflicted man with terror
By destroying the most beautiful thing on earth
That is love
This doesn’t matter whether you are poor or rich

Man used to share sentiments and to proof their blood connection through 
making love
It’s the will of God that conception of a man derives from making love
You’re jeopardizing the art of the Almighty
You keep on killing them thinking that you could be the only stabilizing factor 
on earth
You are wrong I am prepared for you

Come!! Come!! Come!!
Defeat the weak and those who are in denial of your existence
I  test timeously to see whether you’re brave enough
Boffins has discovered a mechanism to ambush you
You fear ARVS like a nightmare of a prisoner

You decide to hide in the cheeks and joins
So that you can remain unconquered
Time is near 
I wish to be there by the day of your elimination
To embrace  my happy face and the  tears of joy

Silent Love

My sweet, my sour, my sore
I stalk, you run, and you hide
You appear, I fear, I pause
You smile, I choke, and I freeze

I wish, I could tell, I can’t 
I wish, you could see, my sensations
My love, my comfort, my care, for you
My fictions, my thoughts, our world

You pass; I am relieved, I am angry
I hit myself, I stupid, its fine 
You don’t appear, it hurts, and I am sleepless
You’re my day, by day, diversion,
I always believed, you were not mine

The gallant, took you, away
I wish, I could have, told you
That, I love you…………..
