Echo Through Eternity



Inspite of afflictions of the heart
despite its protege called "Pain"
Let no man who ever loved
believe he loved in vain

For every thing you sow 
you need not always reap
let there be peace in letting go
and pride in choosing what to keep

You have felt the wind rush
when you soared high
You have survived the hollow depths
during the low tide
So if they chose to walk away
that shouldnt undermine you
The tag of " A Survivor" 
doesn't even begin to define you

They walked away from you in the dark
forget them in the light
But why admonish the love you held so dear?
Take control, take pride.

Being in a relationship is one thing
Loving them - another
The former ends when you end it
The latter involuntarily lasts forever

Whether you Hate the crime or Chide the lover 
what you had was more than some dispensable entity
Love on child, 
for how you loved  in this Life (not who)
Shall echo through eternity

Better Tomorrow



Sometimes it’s hard to find a reason

To look up and force a smile

When all your senses are telling you

It may not be worthwhile

But you'll keep your head above water

It’s not your time to drown

There’s gotta be an easy way to

Wipe off distant frowns.


Some say the only way is up

When you’re in so very deep

We both' ll be thrown a ladder

Something I expect to see.

At some point we will choose to climb

When we're ready to mend the hurt

Why should we both be satisfied

To stay knee deep in dirt.


You should know that I have promised

In time, from my mind, I'll set you free

Fill your mind until it’s time

To exit your heart’s poverty

I see your plans before me

You should know that I care

So lift yourself up until it’s time

To answer your every prayer.

A Love Divided



There,
You stand
 united, 
by the sum of broken promises
waged by withdrawals of despair

Here,
I lie
 divided, 
As the planet you once called home
That's nearly out of air
