A Single Drop

A tear rolled out of my eyes
I don’t know why
It rolled off my nimble lashes
Not oft but rare in random flashes
I see myself in states like these
The tear resting on my cheek
Not moving, not knowing where else to be
Not trying, neither drying, not rolling free
Wonder have I hardened such
Has wisdom taken over sensitivity?
Years gone by have changed me so much
Have I no more of them left in me?
I feel weighed by reverie
Then I smile at the joke of thee.
I am the sort who laughs with all
And tears are meant only for me to see
But what shall be of this one that stalled
Standing still and solitary.

i Live

Get out of your daily mold
Wear the shoes that you once sold
Choose the road you want to be
Be thy self...create history

Twinkling star guides the way
Stormy nights and through the day
Be the star of your self
Pave the path and stack the shelf

Move to learn and to stand
Move the mind to a foreign land
Move to have...have some more
Move yourself out of that door

Life is limited, he once said
Join the dots and earn your bread
Stories of him be told
Millions of apples sold

As time flies...You realize
10 years have passed you by
Pick up right now and build it up
Have to see a half full cup

Coz all we are is dust...

Today together, tomorrow burst.
Remember wen i told u...
i am not just i, u r not just u

I am bigger than you can see
I can create history!

We are family

Oh how it hurts the mother
To see one child hit another
To be drenched in such hatred
Both she cared for and fed
Both of them she watched as they grew
She gave her all to those two
Now they fight for power and for land
For money and who’s got a better stand
What is the point of this game
Whether its me or you…hurts the mother just the same.

It’s sad what is happening in Egypt, what happened in Xinjiang, in Thailand… In Afghanistan, between Iran & Iraq, in India, in Pakistan…between them…So many more wars & uprisings have happened. Who died…somebody’s brother, sister, mother, father, daughter, son… Aren’t we all first 'one'?
