The Chained Dove

On the window above stands chained a dove

Looking with dreams of flight but no strength to fight

I stare into the eye and I feel a mocking smile

Flutter of wings or is it saying something

The words which mean and still I cant see

I walk by ,forgetting it I try

The next day I stand again

With the same smile it looks my way

Wanting to ask what it means

The meaning of smile I just cant see

The mystery troubles me even in sleep

One day I see the hand near the place where dove stands

Its owner a frail young man looking out into the sun

Trying to understand what is being done

Then I realize the mystery of the smile

Mocking me day and night

Its chains are what we can see

But the chains are holding us in reality

It flutters its wings attempting a flight

We dont try to escape with all our might

Too busy we are looking into the room

That unaware are we of the world that zooms

In this daily life ours dont spend sometime with loved ones

The smile told me we think we are free

But still held in our misery

Some show what it is others just hide beneath

Rare are the people who can take a flight

Fly high and reach the sky.

Belief

I am what I am

It matters not who you are

I lead my life the way I want

Follow your path I cant

I am a free bird that soars high in the sky

Will fall once in a while

But to get up I shall always try

There will always be a hope

Guiding me along the path it shows

A wish for sunlight

Giving me strength to fight

Darkness is what it seems to you

Indicates light will be here too

Ambers of faith refuse to die

Ignite them to get light

Giving them the air

Into the eyes of success will stare

It may not be my time

But whats there to cry

I will laugh when its my turn

Will look directly into the sun

DREAM

A moment its there
The next its gone
What it was
Was it what you want?
You never know what was there
But something you have lost
Search for it anywhere
Might you win your cause
But it really hurts to see
When you do not
Dream up the things you want
Never give up
When you are down
Dream again a new dream
Because one of them
Might be for what you are

New Beginning

Its a new day a new beginning

Can feel the breeze

The chirping of birds calling

The fragrance of morning dew

Breaking free of what was holding me

Its another day to find my way

Another chance, wish to dance

With rhythm of beats, promising a treat

Looking forward to change coming my way

Holding hope and its not dope

This is my turn to let positive churn

Holding high my head like a fearless I tread

With a bright smile ready to head miles

With a song on my lips wont let this optimism dip

Can hear words of some,they say my day has come

Wish

Still can feel the pain
That grips me within
No matter how happy
The smile always falls thin
Have these wonderful moments
Which I can not cherish
This is just a dream
Is my wish..

Thought that I have left behind
The memories which clouded my mind
Each day I make a promise
I will let them be history
But the very next moment I find them
Staring right at me
This guilt of holding on when you ought to let go
In my eyes does it show

I am a dreamer and I weave dreams
When they fail do I scream
I wish everything's just fine
But will it ever be that you are mine?
These words I can never say
So I write with a hope
That read them u may.....

Disease

Here we see the people fight
For what they call just and right
In this state of affairs
The chill from the vibes
Pulling each other down from their chairs
But how thick is their hide?

Today they murder
Tomorrow they shout
No value attached to our soldiers
Thats their political clout
Masses hold no value
Minority appeasement and vote bank generation
Is their main issue

The lack of interest of unity
Eating from inside
The country
Like a termite
Its a disease that we are letting grow
Like a cancer spreading
In time its effect will show

Please Answer Me

Deep in the soul I search
Look for things unknown
Not knowing where they were
Kept in the secret door thats closed
Lost my way and lost the keys
Losing all the gifts I had with me
What I have lost was never with me
But what it is
Would somebody tell me please

There is an unknown hollow
Tell me what was it that filled it before
The water is now so shallow
I used to fish in it long ago
Things are changing
Winds are blowing
I am losing all contact with sanity
Why is it
Would somebody tell me

I am afraid to reach for unknown
Earlier adventures used to be a thrill
Now am scared to move out
Doing that makes me shrill
What is making me so
Was earlier my alter ego?
Is this the real reason
That I feel the feelings amiss
Confused I am please help me solve this

I can keep on laughing
But is it I that I am laughing at
Looking in the mirror
Is it the joke I am looking at
I a confused and mixed
Never felt lonely like this
In this crowd of people
Is there anyone who makes me feel fit
I am looking for answers to questions unknown
Please answer me am ithe only one alone?
