My Poison
Ask me about my poisonAnd I’ll reply – thinking;More than what I should,More than what I must! I ponder over what-ifs,I ponder over maybes;I create situations unrealistic,Replay until on them, I fix. I suffer in my mind,I go through the pain;Of things and people,Even though it may never rain. I run through blazing trails,Of moments…

Trapped Freedom
Stopped, stuck, trapped, cagedWithin the gleaming bars of mindChained down with knots of thoughtsGlued down to temperamental ties Fighting a war of lost causeFighting from the wrong sideFighting with the human worldWhen the devil gleefully rests inside Where does freedom reside?Where is the strength to turn tides?In this chaotic confused world?Who will fight by my…

A Dying Flower
A dying flowerThrown in the binAfter been adoredCherished and grinnedA gift to the lovedA symbol of winAfter being pluckedAway from its kin Blooming on the treeSwaying with the windA thousand petalsGrowing out of the rindInside the little budTo the branch pinnedBy the gentle riverOn the outskirts of Sindh And yet it was a dying flowerBeing…

I see you
I see you drooping,All green and yellow,Swaying and swinging,Through the mellow. I see you stand tall,Up and super tough;Withstand it all,The smooth and the rough. I see you surge,Continue to grow;Yet wisdom you splurge,To all high and low. I see you everyday,I hear you talk,Tis a day of giving,Is the motto you rock!

I wore a hat
I wore a hat, a yellow hat,With a big bow on the rim.A floppy hat, A pretty hat,Oh! With a lovely brim! I wore a hat, a shady hat,To keep me from the sun.A huge hat, a fashionable hat,Yay! Let’s have some beach fun! I wore a hat, a plush hat,In the speeding winds,A flying…

It makes me want to staywhere I should be leavingand be afraid of doingwhat might be the right thing. It ties me down in my very…

Blame game
“You always blame me for what happened”; “Why am I always responsible for anything that goes wrong?” If this is what something you keep telling or wondering, chances are you are the one blaming yourself rather than others around you. You need to recognize the pattern of automatically holding yourself responsible for everything around you.…

Things are meant to be
If things are meant to be,Nothing you do matters;However unlikely they seem,Even if they are in tatters. All the obstacles you counted,And all the negatives you saw;There’s always a way that works,That’s the goddamn law! If people are meant to be together,They will end up so;All they must do is trust,And just go with the…

Friends
They put you down,They lift you up;They turn you around,And make you a clown. They embarrass you,And put you in trouble;Make fun of you,And burst your little bubble. They make you laugh,They make you cry;They understand your heart,Even when your eyes are dry. They support you,Through thick and thin;And have your back;Even when you are…

Get up and go to the gym;Do that work pending since.Start something that makes you keen;Let’s just redefine our routines! Today, make…
