You can run but you can’t hide

You can run but you can't hide

You can deny but pain won't leave your side

You can laugh but the heart will ache

You can ignore but the memories won't fade

You can scream, shout and cry but you can't run from the sky

Thoughts in my head

So many thought in my head fighting to be expressed

Unsure I remain as to act upon them fearing the consequences

Who will they hurt?

Which can of worms will they open?

Call me selfish, call me evil

For I don't want to get hurt more

Enough pain I have had, i need no more

Yet I seek no revenge..

Though i have never felt a stronger urge to use profanities to express myself

I feel i have lost myself in a black hole, emotionally and mentally

What have i done to get this upon myself?

I had the perfect plan which crashed and burned along the way

Leaving me in the dark hole I am in

Something humid, something cool..


When we met he made me hot with his cool cool talk

We went for dinners and went on walks,

Leaving our name written in chalk

His kiss, his touch, his look and his hug

His love, his care, his passion and his lust

His laughter, his anger, his mischief and his stare

His eyes, his lips, his chest and his hair


Feeling danger, excitement and almost like a tart,

I fell into his arms giving him my heart

Something humid, something cool,

His charisma turned me into a fool

Poverty

The rich are happy, the poor are sad
The rich party as the poor stare
The rich waste but the poor starve
The poor slave as the rich laugh

Why this divide of rich and poor?
The world is all's to share and love
Love thy neighbour, love thy friends,
Love the poor.... give them a hand

They deserve a chance from you and me.
Don't turn your back to their pleas

I

I is the lion

I is the wind

I is the sun

I is king

I is pink

I is blue

I is me or is I you?

I is dance

I is music

I is the girl who laughs like a lunatic

I is the voice

I is the words

I is the thoughts of the world

I is the cupcake

I is the cookie

I is the sister

I am the mummy

I is whoever you want me to be,

Your dream, your reality

But who is I, who is me?

I is all I want to be

My Sunflower


Fascinating is the sunflower
Bright as the sun,
Whom it follows around

Standing tall and proud,
Drinking up the warmth
Be it in the open fields,
Or the pretty vase in my house

Fragrant it may not be,
But it has its own beauty

A natural wonder, a bright marvel
A creation of mother earth,
That is the sunflower

My Rose

http://wiphotographers.multiply.com/photos/album/4/Rain#12

Red as blood is my rose
Its fragrance filling this prose
Its beauty shining like a torch
Lighting up what I see not

My rose delights with beauty
Yet thorns too bite with cruelty
Kiss of my rose is purer then dew
Its touch is soft as silk

Captivating, seducing
Passionate and loving
My rose is what it is,
Simply a beauty

My Body, Your Body

Creative Writing Poem 1.
Background on poem: Titled 'My Body, Your Body', the poem is about my body and your body. My body is my body but your body is the Singapore History Museum. That was all the brief we got. We were told to go to museum and use that as inspiration for the poem. So on Saturday I spent 2 amazing hours at the museum. The result of all this is the poem below. I hope you enjoy reading it.

My Body, Your Body

What is a body,
an object occupying space?
My body, your body both the same
Yet we differ in what we hold inside us
Me, I hold emotions and a life living
You, tales and stories of lives past

Bodies, yours and mine, are nothing without our souls
Just empty spaces waiting as moulds
My body, your body await the unknown
To give our existence a reason for being

Each day passing adds something to my body, your body
My body lives for the now as with time
Your body lives for the past as gone with time

Still I ask what is your body, my body?
An enigma with treasures hidden?
Or
Just an empty shell?

Time

The seconds tick by,

Taking along the minutes and hours,

The days and weeks

The months fly by and the years follow

We age with time,

Living our lives

Making our memories on which to live by

Time is precious that we know

Yet why is it that we treasure it not?

Zest

The zest for life, the zest for living..
The zest for love, the zest for loving..
The zest to plan, the zest for executing..
The zest to dream, the zest for fulfilling..

Makes the difference in achieving and being left sitting

I want..

I want to cry cause I miss you so
I want to smile cause I love you so
I want to die cause I'm without you
I want to laugh cause of the memories with you
I want to live cause I want to live with you
I want to love cause I know I love you
I want happiness cause I know you want them too
I want to dream cause you're there to dream with me
I want to want cause I know you will give it all to me
I am the luckiest cause you make me

Its not....

its not lust, its love
its not for me, its for us
its not for a day, its for each and every day to come
its not to hurt, its for happiness of everyone
its not a game, its a dream we want
its not just a dream, its our life we planned
yet today it stands against the bitterness of truth and reality
what will, what will not happen we know not
today it ends or maybe tomorrow
know we do in us its forever and ever more

Straight from the heart


hume jinse pyaar hai
jinke liye humari jaan hai,

unse he humari pehchan hai
unke bina hum kya hai,

shayaad humne kabhi keha nahi
lekin unke bina jeena nahi,

hume hum se zyaada jaana
duniya se zyaada chaahna,

yehi unka kaam hai
aur yehi unki pehchan hai,

hume jinse pyaar hai
unka humpe bahut ehsaan hai

The journey of life

No one knows what the future holds
but we know the future holds a lot for each and everyone of us
we just have to wait and watch
no use in cribbing or stressing about it
all in good time, as they say

We can never say which way life will go,
what it leads to
we can simply enjoy the journey
be on the alert at all times, cause ignorance is bliss only in dreams
hold the reins to try to counter the negative externalities on the way
take some risks but only when they seem to make a teeny weeny bit of sense
smell the flowers along the way
don't feel shy to enjoy the air

Each turn on the journey will bring with it something new
some times good, other times bad
either way you'll learn something
the trick is in being open to whatever life brings in front of you at that turn
its no use closing your eyes, cause you'll only crash and hurt
to learn you have to embrace everything with open arms,
so what if you have to kick it out with tears later on?

We each have one life
its up to us to make the most of it
no matter what we tell ourselves, its our choice
at the end of the journey we answer to no one but ourselves
so why do we shy away from living our lives the way we want for ourselves
don't forget the people around you,
god might have littered your life with thorns together with the roses
it is these very people who hold your hand when you walk bloody feet,
it is them who stand at the side with those silent smiles, watching you smell the roses

But most importantly don't forget yourself,
the special someone god created to live this life
the strength each one of us has within us to be someone
someone who we will be proud to be
someone who god will be proud to have created

Be true to yourself
for there is no bigger joy in life

Sardi ke us shaam

sardi ke us shaam jab unpe nazar padi,
hum bhol gaye ke yeh sapna tha ya hakikat thi.
jadoo kuch aisa tha unki aadao ka,

hume abhi tak nahi pata unki adaaein mujhe ghayal kar gayi

on that winter evening, when i my eyes fell on him,
i forgot if it was a dream or reality
the magic of his mannerisms was such,
that i still do not know that his mannerisms wounded me

Poem for an angel

Well the following poem was written for an angel... so read on.

Jab tak hai zindagi, a dil jiyeja,
zindagi ka pyara goot piyeja.

Zindagi milte hai ek bar,
ese pal-pal jiyeja.
Gujare huai gammo ko bhul kar,
Niye kal ko jiyeja.

Jab tak hai zindagi,a dil jiyeja,
zindagi ka pyara goot piyeja.

A dil fir ek aasiya bana,
pyara sa ahsash fir dil mai jaga.
Zindagi ruk nahin jati,ek saathi k jaane se,
Aayega koi zindagi mai fir bahane se.

Jab tak hai zindagi,a dil jiyeja,
zindagi ka pyara goot piyeja.

Udase ko chod kushi ko apna,
A dil tu fir muskura.
Zindagi bahut hassi hai,
ese pyar se gale laga.

Jab tak hai zindagi,a dil jiyeja,
zindagi ka pyara goot piyeja
