Until You Came Along

I'm sitted 

Crying my pain away

While you are out there

Smiling

It's your day.

You robbed me,

Went ahead and,

Touched what is not yours,

You scarred me forever,

Leaving me with wounds,

That not even time can heal.



When you finally get your wife,

You are never going to remember me,

You will not think of,

How you snuck into my room,

Not think of the touch,

The touch that I loathed,

How you defiled me,

For days and days on end,

You aren't going to remember,

Little me,

Writhing under you.



I never understood

What was happening?

I mean,

How was I supposed to know that,

That is private?

How was I to know

It wasn't right?

It wasn't supposed to happen?

I was but a mere child,

Innocent,

Untainted,

I was pure,

Until you came along.

True Beauty

We think we know True Beauty? True beauty is Praying in congress Side by side, foot by foot and Shoulder to shoulder. True beauty is Giving salaam to that Stranger you see on the street Or that beggar down there below. True beauty lies in Sparing a coin From that bundle you've got To give the poor. True beauty comes only if We visit the sick and show them we care. If we attend funerals and funeral prayer Despite not knowing the deceased. True beauty will be ours Once we strengthen our kinship And be good to our neighbours. If and only if we Refrain from procrastination, Change that "I'll do it tomorrow" to "I'm currently working on it". True beauty is Smiling to those strangers out there Good or bad, Old or young, Man or woman. True beauty will be ours Once we stop the lies and insults, Once we stop speaking ill of each other. True beauty, True beauty can be attained. We just have to work on it.

GAP

I won't be wrong when I say that parents and children now have become enstranged. It's like none knows the other anymore. Strangers under one roof. Aliens to each other. It's sadening really. I mean, your first ally's supposed to be your parents and the other way round.  Conflicts between parents and their children are rising so fast that it seems to be the norm. It's not surprising nowadays for a kid to scream and shout back at their parents just because they're not comfortable with the set rules. It goes without saying that such a relationship is toxic to both parties; depression for the parent wondering where they went wrong and the little one going astray. But if we sit down and find the root cause of all this, I believe we can curve our way out of this hole. It needs to be realised that the blame falls on both sides and has to be rectified.  Has it ever occurred to you that the main reason is the cloud of an unpleasant family history looming over them? H

That one person.

There comes a time when you just meet this one person and like magic, you are intrigued. That one person who takes to you a whole different level of happiness. The one whom you can talk to about anything and everything. Pour your heart to and never have a doubt. The one who sees behind that happy mask you have on. The one person who knows you as you and not what you depict. The one who sees you fail but still encourages to keep going ahead. They know of your flaws and still accept you as you are; no discrimination. The one you can fall apart before them and they'd sew you back to whole. The one who moulds who you are; partly determines who you shall be. The one you want have deep conversations about life with. That one person you want to annoy forever. Who makes your heart beat just by the sight of them. Who makes you smile even when you are down low. Who calls you in the middle of the night just to ask you if you are awake. That one person you are comfortable wearing pjs before th
