Friend to the End
They say that friendship will stop our downfall,
It is a stone, a rock in sands of time.
His stone begins to fade to dust and falls
With each loud crash of sound and booming chimes.
The seconds turn to hours, time spins so fast
I can’t decide; I’m always torn in two.
The anger builds. I fear this will not last.
The storms rage on and still I have no clue.
This strife and pain I want to shed and scream
“O why?” I’m stuck in time, a cold place where
Unheard, I cry. The Agony of dreams:
Our bond is lost, just rubble and despair.
A friend’s a friend until it is the end…
The end is now. We part our ways my friend.
I wipe away your tears
Do not give up this fight so soon my dear,
For I am here to catch you when you fall.
With every pain, I wipe away your tears.
Push against entwined ropes that bind to fear.
We must struggle through; this is no time to stall.
Do not give up this fight so soon my dear.
Your heart to dust, I mend it through the years.
It breaks again. You can't help but recall...
With every pain, I wipe away your tears.
The pain will end if I, not he, am near...
…Again fond pasts of love, of him, enthrall.
Do not give up this fight so soon my dear.
I am with you, a promise that is clear.
Please trust your heart with me, I'll stop it all.
With every pain, I wipe away your tears.
Darkness gone, rays of light reveal your cheer.
A burden shed, I saved you from downfall.
You won the fight and made it through my dear.
No pain... no need to wipe away your tears.
Delirium
Clip clop
Swish swosh
Cough, sniffle
Apologies
Chuckle
Slam! Crash
Of metal
Shh…
I’m being watched,
Take a look
At yourself in the mirror
What do you see?
Asshole,
Anger in the eyes.
Punch him, crack him in the
Face.
Internal voice screams
Walk away
Toward,
Nothing
Everything
Anything.
Why?
Pause
Pause
Rewind
Fast forward
Play
Always late.
Close eyes, the mind,
Arrow points the way
Of how to act
Feel, think, be.
Fire in the heart
Frozen solid.
Fall behind
Alone
Dark
No growth, dead.
Warning to slow down
Faster, faster
Spin out of control.
Stop.
Turn engines on
Speed away
Splash of puddle
Wet,
Always raining
No sun,
Come back
Too far.
Everything’s broken
Can’t be fixed
Maybe recycled,
Filtered
Running through gutters
Cascading
Screeching to a halt…
Gotta keep flowing
Going
Don’t look back
Push forward.
Where are they?
Where is this place?
Fluttering in the breeze
Flapping
Fluttering by
Flutterby
Butterfly, here?
Unbelievable
Believe it
Go full circle.

As it is, as it should be
I owned nothing yesterday, nor do I own a thing today.
I only had my heart as mine, but I’ve lost that as well.
The emptiness is what you have left
Forgive me if I stutter from all the clutter in my head
Immortal language of love, what have you done to me?
Words escape me
Disguised in a poem
In a Veiled silence saying more than a thousand words.
Silently imploding,
Quietly exploding into a sweet melody
Chanting nothing but your name.
Lips graze, eyes blaze
Harmonious flames
Pounding unmatched tempos of the heart
Racing in self control
Showing the lustful beats
Your sweet words make
My knees weak,
My heart beat faster every minute.
Even if thy lips speak or not, your eyes divulge the story
Speaking the immortal language.
I’ve seen the paths that your eyes wander down,
I want to come too.
Quenching that primal hunger…
To taste the lips of the lily girl,
Who will forever be an unsolved puzzle,
Draped in mist,
Strolled through the deep forest of my mind.
Maybe to really know I have to let go
And tell my heart: “Relax,
She’s within your grasp.”
Wishes do come true,
Someday I’ll prove it to you
As our dreams blend into the realms of reality.
River reaching ocean
The waves of your love drown me.
You are my anchor
You are my soniya (pretty girl)
Muhjay tum sey pyar hai
