‘ My mind plays those moments
back on rewind,
and lingers on your face,
for just a little while.’

Together We Can
Fathers, mothers and brothers are killed,
Lands left fallow, no field is tilled.
Blood and bodies cover the streets,
Here come the terrorists and there go the cheats.
Life has become a graveyard for us,
No one to call upon, no one to trust.
Kids are tortured and made to beg,
A woman without an eye, a man without a leg.
I believe together we can fix it all,
together we can fight a war against war.
We can get them to stop shattering our lives,
Not individually but together this time.
When widows cry they make us realize,
That humans are not of virtue but full of vice,
Can we not love all the blacks and whites?
Yes, together we can change the flow of tides.
United we stand, divided we fall,
Haven’t we heard enough of that all?
Together we can bring peace from within,
and make the world a better place to live in.

No Reminder
Pain does not knock at your door ,
it is sudden and astonishing
and that is what hurts the most.
~Saadia
I Know
‘Do you hide yourself,
behind the curtains of words,
to relieve the pain
that fills you?
I know the answer,
and yet it is true,
some of your feelings,
are too strong,
for even the paper,
to hold for you.’

I tried to become a kid
Childhood nostalgia 🙂
Petals are shaking with the wind
In the middle of the garden , I again feel like a kid
Collecting flowers and enjoying the breeze
Jumping in puddles, legs soaked till the knees
I danced under the sun
The rays touching my cheeks
The glow on my face, eyeing all the treats.
I dreamed, I smiled, I played, I cared
I tried to become a kid once again
To forget the fact that caused me pain
I couldn’t run into my mother’s lap
And again live that carefree life

We All Are The Same
We are different, we possess multitudes and we contradict ourselves and others. We hardly point out similarities between ourselves and others but actually we all are the same. Not in what we are, not in what we feel but in what we need. All of us work hard, sweat and preserve ,.. for what? Simply for happiness. We all are different but all we do and all we have done , is for happiness. I wish that all of us pursue our common goal 🙂

4) If you fail or pass, suffer in the Page of Lame.
5) If you win, wallow in the Page of Fame.
My entry:
Many things in my world count so much in making my wish to accomplish into what truly is. All of us wish for happy days, no bumps, no cracks and an infinity days full of guffaws along with tons of joy.I wish that our tiny wish turns into truth. All of us would hold a soft spot for it , I am firm of that.
.
This post is kind of sprawling in no direction but I do love the letter E . Kind of hard to do without it…..
MY NOMINEES:
Good luck 🙂
Don’t Give Up On Yourself.
People will try to bring you down, to rise above you, to demolish your spirit, to crumble your confidence to pieces. I have faced this bitter reality a lot more than my memory can possibly flash back at me. You have gone through that too. No matter how big or small. Small people belittle your ambition and make you believe that you are not worth all you are given credit for. But that is just a creation, a vision that they plant in their small and miserable minds. I never tag people as ‘ small’ or ‘evil’ but people reflect their real selves.People will try hard and will go beyond even their own limits to make you feel pain and regret. When people do that, simply take a sweet revenge…… learn from that moment of the past, collect those torn fragments and the stones thrown at you to build your future, to be an architect of your further life. To be more lucid, never let negativity and other people’s opinions and acts towards you make you fell deprived or melancholic. Work smarter towards your dreams, change them to reality and let the people who bring you down watch in awe. It might seem hard. It isn’t actually. When you know your direction , YOU can prove those people wrong and force them to hang their heads low.
Obviously, life is no fairytale. Believing in a happy journey is nothing more than hard. Easier said than done. Pretty obvious. But when you know what you are doing, care for what you do, are ready to work hard for it, there is nothing that you can’t do if you just have the determination to prove those people wrong. I wish you all very productive lives, lives that reflect perfect kinship of the mind, body and soul.
