Eiffel

Beneath light and dark shades,

I see luminous entities

Showering down from heaven,

And onto the magnificence

A gargantuan structure

A place of divinity,

That lays ahead of me.

Stop

Everything feels very quiet,
My lips are moving but I can't say anything.
It has passed all boundaries,
It has passed all that is humane.

Everything isn't as genuine,
The way I used to see it, but now I can't unsee.
Stop it this moment!
Stop it right away!

Poverty is what has flourished,
Terror is amidst us everyday, our day to day lives.
What did just happen?
Don't let this happen.

I seek for your sympathy,
We can prevent only what we choose to prevent.
For some air I am choking,
For only some air I am breathing.

Sunlight

We’re the first ones to start a new legacy,

They left us before we could complain.

Our wits are our allies, the unknown our enemy,

Others are gone but we’ve decided to stay.

So as long as you and I are comfortable,

In making mistakes and doing what haunts us.

The goal ahead you see, might just be achievable,

We don’t need to keep watching our past.

Because it’s about time that we let the people know,

That we aren’t afraid to stand up on our own.

That we can do anything, our past has to show,

As long as you and I think together as one.

The Dream

When my eyes are open

I look into this vast world

Not with gingered eyes

But how it looked in my dreams

Just the way it was.

When my eyes are open

I live to see another day

Another morning sunshine

Cool air to breathe

Good food to eat.

When my eyes are open

I welcome my spirit

To be what it wants to be

Without judgement

Without fear.

When my eyes are open

I can be the change

That I want to see

And I relish

Every single moment.

But when my eyes are closed

My heart beats faster

As it processes all that change

And tells me a story,

A dream that I want to live in

Forever.

A Rose for You, A New Life for Me

Words cling on to me for dear life

What you said will remain on the tip of my tongue

As I remember you, and imagine you

In my arms so tight, that I can exhibit wishfullness

To you my sweet love, oh bear thee

The rain has come and parted our ways

But my love for you has not departed,

And you will always be wanted

By me in so many years later

When we will talk together,

Like nothing has happened,

Like time had stopped,

Our conversations as endless as our thoughts,

Your beauty as endless as the stars at night,

We will be together

As one.

How I Lived Through Those Days

Dusty pathways crowded by litterbugs,
Rays shooting through gaps of the hand,
Waiting for the old lover; comfortably seated
With both arms parallel on the sides
We wait for her to come by.

Children playing with small animatronics
Waiting for life ahead; not a dash of worry
On their pure, calm foreheads smooth.
Crying at small mishaps that come by
I still wait for her to come.

She will make me feel happy
After all, I live for another day with her
What will she ask of me? What about these people?
What do they wait for?
Extermination is imminent.

Perception and Cognizance

A face that works both ways,

The one that stays calm even on a stormy sea,

Is also the one that roars while below, on a quiet reef.

Trapped deep, very deep under water

And seems to stay that way.

Hey There, Baby Girl!

This baby girl, her arms are short

Of prejudices she must go through,

Of the evil eyes she’s exposed to,

She does not know what she’s worth.

                                  

Hey baby girl, I’m here for you

You’re a goddess sent from god above,

A little trickster with lots of love,

Only if you knew.

Baby girl lend me your hand

We’ll diminish bias and feticide,

I’ll help you nourish that beautiful mind,

You’ll just have to take a stand.

Your consciousness is too high for this world

They simply just don’t understand,

Be in charge and take command!

Your safety is my word.

Hey there, Baby Girl!

You will grow up one day and then,

The world will be overpowered by men,

But you will have to tell them again,

That you are the greatest gift to this world!

With Parenthood

What may this plain sympathy suggest?

What sugar and spice can treat?

What you have done is for your own best,

To be able to relish my defeat.

I was just mad at you for breaking me

With you taking me to that next level.

Of all of the things I thought I could see,

I couldn't see what you were trying to unravel.

You brought me in a world where I was,

Just a newborn with flickering spirits.

But you challenged me head on as,

I honestly thought I couldn't cope with it.

But with every passing melancholy hour

My mind was simply taking time to adjust,

That there's something really sweet (and not sour)

That can be gained with only your trust.

So thank you for pushing me when I needed it,

When I said that I just can't keep up,

With you

So, Thank you and I will say no more.

A Photograph

You and I standing alone
In a world of false creed
In a world of no sympathy
Yet we feel as one.

You and I standing alone
In a picture that seems perfect
Away from all the racket
We are fine.

And I know that you feel helpless
But this photograph of us
Away from all the fuss
Has proved to be more
Than mere images of ourselves.
