And ...

(Image Source: http://fineartamerica.com)

And a ray of hope flickers in the sky

And I sprout wings, and I learn to fly

And fly do I in our distant past

And dive back into the story that failed to last

And I go through the nooks and corners that glow

And I try to run, but oh am so slow

And calling out your name, I swim across tears

And I try one last time, abandoning all fears

And it was too late

And you started to hate

And you said you can't

And this wasn't what I want

And I wake up with souls new found

And they made me believe that the world is round

And ah, that's a rumor, the earth is flat

And couldn't this be an excuse for an unearthly chat

And we can soar beyond the stars

And a new found journey that won't be a farce

And we sail smooth in our garden of trust

And I know it's true, 'cause I have seen worst

And I sprout wings, and I learn to fly

And a ray of hope flickers in the sky.

Snow Fairies

Snow fairies

Hold my numb fingers

Warmth of love.

Warmth of love

Crystal icicles

I dream free.

I dream free

Of peace and joy here

Winter bliss.

Born To Live

Not turning back
We march ahead, ahead, ahead
Our voices speak softly
For those downtrodden steps
Clinging to our souls
Let's swim through the hardship
That hatred possesses
In your evil minds, disobedient
Having tasted the nectar
You add poison to it
To burn poor lives
With folded hands they pray
But why would you care?

You sink in the echo
Of your darkened rhythm
Swinging across the grave.

We will haunt you,
Tear you apart
Don't go by our silence
We are born to LIVE.

We unite against your evil
To decide the fate
Of mankind, of this world
Apocalypse delayed
Resurrection of humans
And humanity.

We got to slay the demons.

Early Plum Blossoms

Early plum blossoms

In valley of silken stars

Dancing with the wind.

Dancing with the wind

Snow fairy matching our steps

Polar bear whispers.

Polar bear whispers

Melody of this winter

Early plum blossoms.

I Drive Down The Memory Lane

photo by Andy Magee

I drive down the memory lane

Swerving across dawn and dusk

Beyond dreams, some insane

Destiny mild, and at times brusque.

It rained last night, the roads are wet

"Drive Slow," is that what they said

And yet I let to be guided by my fate

Life is free, it doesn't get paid.

The tree calls out names

Loudly, sharply, piercing the soul

Of travelers who rushed towards fame

Losing their identities in the black hole.

The road is marred with hopes that failed

Pieces lie strewn in brownish mud

Through vivid promises we have often sailed

Sometimes shedding water, and at times blood.

I pick up the shards to build our castle

Of love, life and everything

We will be safe in this vessel

And listen to the song that you promised to sing.

Yes yes yes, the time is right

There are lessons to be learnt from this pain,

Let's not ever give up without a fight,

And I promise to drive you through the memory lane.

Insecure

Insecure

Sailing across time

Fearing fate

Cracked ribs chill

Soft feet tread on thorns of dreams

Tomorrow, unknown.

If Wishes Were Stars

If wishes were stars

I would pluck them from heaven

Diamonds for your ring.

Diamonds for your ring

Your ecstatic eyes sparkle

My heart hums love tune.

My heart hums love tune

Wandering in wishful bliss

I, losing my way.

I, losing my way

Come across your pink cottage

You open the door.

You open the door

Unwrap twinkling messages

Sweet glances stolen.

Sweet glances stolen

Fairy flies back to her moon

Turns wishes to stars.

A Cat Who Always Wore Blue

A cat who always wore blue
Ran across the town "mew mew"
Chasing the rat
With the golden hat
Welcome to Tom and Jerry adventures anew.
