Brave It Up:We Want a Change

I have always wanted to speak, 
Speak on behalf of them, 
I wish we could all sit and think, 
I wish we could all see what I see but I know we do but chooses to ignore, 
My heart cannot take it no more, 
Am tired of having pity them without a way out,
Am tired of working pass them everyday and giving them alms, 
It's a shame for me and stepping them like stones, 
Am tired of acting with a brave heart full of pain.

I want to speak up for this people, 
I wish others haven't turned it to business but it's out of unemployment, 
I wish we could put our efforts too,
Just take a look behind and see, 
They might seems so worthless but thousands of them die day by day .

I wish we all had the fear of God,mother nature has blessed us with more than enough, please do let it reach us,
We beg for our right, 
The wretched, unprivileged, unacknowledged, 
They all want to live a life. 

We pack up your wrong doings, do worship us as gods,
We make ways for you do bless us with the goodness,
We lifted you with our emotional heart. Stop making it a dead heart,

We want to speak up,
We want to be considered as humans, 
We want to make use of the marvellous brain we are blessed with,
We want to impact on the economy, 

We are behind you when happiness and joy runs in you but you come running to us in pain and grieve, 
You have left overs the poor are pleading to have,
You choose where and how you live your lives, when we are still struggling under the bridge.,
You live a life worth a thousand wretch. 

I wish I could speak out louder, 
We aren't going no where,
Life isn't for eternity but you live as if it is,
Life has enough to offer, 
We have a way out, I have a way out
Bring back our unconditional motherly love bestowed on us.

I wish we could all speak up 
I wish we would be free to live right,
I wish I would be the speaker,
Speaking on behalf of them, 
We want no war,
I wish to make the change, 
It tears my heart to wake up and meet the same old shit...
Brave it up

He Killed Himself and Ran Away

He wanted everything and he claimed he had it all,
He wanted perfection and he thought he could have it ,
He wanted freedom with endless happiness ,
He mounted courage bigger than mountain everest ,
He granted wishes so he did all with money and fame ,
He thought he lacked nothing,
Though, he served his God 
The time  came and he fell him love, he actually was lust
She drained him with no penny left,
Life was so unfair he thought, 
Demanding he could go back and not search for  love but he didn't fall, his heart did,
He went around but no one helped, 
How deceiving life is, he figured out 
They all ran away, ran from his present, 
He propounded a law ,
But it all vanished when she came to give in a penny, 
He lost all hopes,he felt wasted
He was completely lost 
He was very ashamed of himself and very mad at the same, 
He gave up,
He killed himself and his soul ran away
His other half was ashamed too so he buried himself 
His name was all talked about and decided to live in history forever 
He killed himself and ran away

Man Down

It was a mirage,
We fell in love,
We didn't care,
We just wanted to be.

We were rejected,
We were mocked, 
We were shamed, 
We were separated,

Tribalism was it all for,
I couldn't judge any further 
but still I didn't want to let go any longer,

It was a nightmare ,
When he gave up and walked out of my face,
I was already dead as I stood, 
I was told he was getting wed just in the name of class,
I stopped my breath, so I was numb
So could no one read me,

I can't have him,no one will popped in my head,
I ran home and got a gun,
I actually didn't mean it but I shot him,
In the name of love, four bullet sounded, 
And I came to realise, I had killed my world
The man was down, 
I just shoot him down,

I fall to the ground and watched from afar,
Suddenly I stood up and picked a race, 
I was racing after the man I just shot, 
My life that I killed 
I ran after him and he faded him the wind

Boom!!!
I was shoot, 
I was on the ground immediately, 
I was shoot by the supposed bride, 
I smiled at her and said thank you cause I could suffer the pain with him

He was down, so was i
Man down, love down
We fell in love and death was never the end of us 
Just the beginning which just began with no end.....

Here Again

Here we are again still sticking to the past,
It's glued to the present 
Our future we still dare not think about ,
It's all set and down they claim,
It's such a dark place to wander they said
No wonder our regrets are tearing, 
No wonder our present is lacking ,
And our future still hoping,
We did it all for love I know
We did it all for their happiness 
I did it all for freedom and  togetherness
But where are they??
Where are the people I suffered for??
All is set and down they did claimed
And they all packed and leave
They moved on, I didn't 
But I came to realise we were different so I forgave and never forgot, 
But there i am climbing up to once more ,
And they are all gathering around me, 
Calling themselves a friend, 
And that was all they claimed, 
But I made them realise I wanted no friend, 
They might have felt betrayed but they themselves were the betrayals

Memories

Memories of the old days which I thought had long gone has found me 
And picking on me, 
It's hurting and smiling, 
It's a wonderful bitter memory, 

For all reasons I wanted you gone but none was true,
For all hopes I wanted to take a glimpse at the past but it faded
I thought it faded,
Here's the memory
The long gone me,
The one who cared extremely, 
The one who will stop at nothing just to make others happy,
The one who lived a life full of guilt, ,
That was me,
My memories, my history 
Which couldn't be judged by me myself ,

Delighted I Am

They've  all gone hidden but can hear the sounds,and some still dive, 
The birds singing 
The tree dancing and rejoicing,
The wind, making us feel the moment 
I can't stop but to enjoy this moment wished it was never ending,
My dress danced to the rhythm of the wind and my heart couldn't stop smiling, 
I am well delight,
What more will I wish for?
I'm  loving this moment ,
The breeze has made me breathless 
Carrying them,wish you could carry me, blow me and let me dive endlessly through the sky,
Have fallen for the sight of this,
My heart is in love with this moment so is my soul. 
Delighted I am

My Pen of You

It was a gift,
A token,a pen
A pen in which I had to make my inks,
I decided I made myself the ink.

We met by fate,
We made a vow,i made a vow
A vow forever, 
I re- modify our love,i cured my scars, 
My pen was losing ink,i was bleeding profusely, 
Bleeding trying to make things right,

Am in love with you but you are in love with another, 
I bury you inside,
My blood was drained without a drop left.

My pen of you was the beginning and the end,
It was just a gift,i could have repudiate it but it was my fate to live serving you...

No Hope Lost

I once thought of running down the street and facing the on coming vehicle, 
I once had the thought that I was all a bad luck,
I once looked at myself In the eye and said am nothing but a failure,
I always run cause I know I had failed again,
I watched everything fly away just cause of my bigger ambition, 
They hated me not but my ambition, ,,
They gave me several reasons of. disappearing, 
Have always loved unconditionally regardless of the pains and regrets 
I was no beauty to no one's eyes
I once lost the hope of pushing on,
I had broke down alone and no one to comfort me , 
I once scarified everything just to keep them going and dropping myself ,
A hope lost is always hard to regain,
I did try giving up several occasions , 
But my present knew my future was glamorous, 
I once had the thought of giving up 
But here I am today.
And I thought what if I had given up?
I would be have been as hopeless as a desert ,
No hope lost.

My Beautiful Scar

My scar,
The memory of my past,
The reminder of my pain,
The avoidance of the wrong doing
pushes the good away

My scar which pushes the lovable ones away,
Because my scar is on my heart,
Boldly written on my heart,
I'm half dead and half alive

My scar is seen as an ugly sight
But I see it as a beautiful sight
My beautiful scar,
A lesson I have learnt,
My beautiful scar the love I have lost for years and still longing to have has stabbed me,
Leaving me with a scar!

The scar I see as a beauty
Because it is a sign of love,
The power of not letting go,
The never ending love.

My beautiful scar!

Again

Watch it glow slowly and softly,
Watch it shine brightly and sweetly,
Watch it fade sadly and faithlessly ,
Watch it all gone with sorrow and pain,
But I won't let you leave in pain,
I had rather keep you and have all the sorrow to myself 
Because I want you to  glow and shine once again,
You are above all regardless what it is...
