The Inexplicable Problem

After a traumatic work day
Going back to my humble home
A familiar cry reaches the ear
Oh! It’s the sound of my mobile phone

“Who could this be”? I questioned
It’s a call from a private number
“Its I… I’ll call you…” was all she said
But the voice was far too familiar

Though it wasn’t a normal flash
The voice produced too many pictures
I ran my memory in a speedy form
But none matches such features

Whose fault then was it?
Mine! Or that of the caller
Was it the network coverage?
Or that of the moving car

Had I known, would have trekked home
No! Jumped out of the car in motion
If only she wouldn’t call me back
Wouldn’t have been in this commotion

Though it gives me great thought
And lots of funny inspiration to write
That was the longest suspense of all
My ceiling had a million sheets that night

Could this be the caller’s intention?
To know the state of my patience
But if an vital message is to be passed
Then why this inconsequential suspense

But whatever this is
Chaos is the state of my mind
I wait meticulously for her call again
If only this poem she would find

SOMEONE NOBODY KNOWS

She sits daily with loneliness
And smiles at nothing at all
She stares at the critical gaze of men
From the mirror that hangs on the wall

She waits for someone who is nobody
And for decades everbody comes or goes
With hope to be free one day
She’s somebody nobody knows

Down to the cares of life she falls
Like someone the world threw away
Nobody comes to the rescue
None bother’s to look down where she lay

Though she cries, tries helplessly
To wipe memories off her shadow
A shadow the world leaves behind
Is the accolade from her fellows

She is someone nobody knows
Cries where nobody can hear
Someone is dying alone in pain
In this life and nobody seem to care

What Matters!

It matters more the words you speak in part
For it determines what you have in your heart
It matters more the choice of your Faith
For it determines your fate

It matters more the friends you keep
For it determines your dream while you sleep
It matters more the clothes you put on
For it talks about your inner man more

It matters more what things you see
For it determines what you believe
It matters more what you hear
For it determines your fear

It matters more what thing you touch
For it determines you thought very much
It matters more what you taste
For it determines your waste

It matters more what you smell
For it determines your instinct very well
It matters more what you talk about
For it might put many in doubt

It matters more what life you live
For it determines what you will receive
It matters more what you take in
For it determines the formation of your skin

It matters more what you know
For it determines what you show
It matters more what you do
For it tells more about you

Pls Forgive me

Darkness fills the sky
As it seems stronger than daylight
Coloured pictures of the past
Threatens to fade into black and white

Weary and overwhelmed with fatigue
As time smugly stands still
Coldness fills the lungs
Pushing the heart to inaudibly fall ill

Lingoes of regret and anger
Fills the once pretty face
As words of deterrent oozed out
Turning Excellency into disgrace

It is tedious to conciliate this anger
With an effortless quixotic line
Being a daily expression
Petrified of not being sublime

Seeing this astonishing world
In a unpretentious perspective
Bleedings of the heart isn't obscure
Though in pain won't be restive

Pleading from the dept of heart
Don't shy away this time or snub
Scrutinizing egotist ambitions
With tender arms dreaming to hug

Let the horizontal and perpendicular
Which forms a cross
Truss our heart in Christian love
Which in return forms the two of us

Extraordinary but Human

They are extremely strong
Though in pain would not cry
They are vulnerable to hurt
When told a funny white lie

To attest their love
They would swallow their pride
They loathe creating awareness
When there is something to hide

They are susceptible to criticism
When they please egotism
They smile in disguise
To remove the shame from their eyes

They do most of the talking
And in half they listen
They are hyper-active intoto
Barely trice beaten

They value their flesh and bone
Better than luxurious gold
They are often too anxious to know
The mysteries that are seldom told

They keep to their promises
Never changing their mind
They are the most precious gift
Any mature woman can find

Self confidence builds them
A little nag tears them apart
Though bravado in character
They are blessed with a fragile heart

What is

There isn't a beginning without an end
There isn't an enemy that wasn't once a friend
There isn't a pride without a fall
There isn't a walk without a crawl

There isn't a smoke without fire
There isn't a love without a desire
There isn't a sacrifice without pain
There isn't a lightening and thundering without rain

There isn't a time that'll forever last
There isn't a future without a past
There isn't a future without a present
There isn't a flower without a scent

There isn't a death without suppurate
There isn't a pain the heart can't tolerate
There isn't an ecstasy without satisfaction
There isn't humility without elevation

There isn't a Spoken Word without a thought
There isn't a teacher that wasn't taught
There isn't a warrior without a bloody sword
There isn't a tree without a bud

There isn't a rose that isn't gotten from thorns
There isn't a lily that isn't gotten from mud
There isn't a giving without receiving
There isn't a word that isn't worth believing

There isn't a broken heart love can't mend
There isn't a hungry soul that can't be fed
There isn't a lost that can't be found
There isn't a thing that can't make a sound
