Foes and Friends

Once again I find myself lost
on the many roads of this world
I told myself a million times
never would I falter from the right road

Yet at every turn I take
There stands the tempting thorns
How crazy am I to walk over them
and then cry over my bleeding feet

Will I never be perfect as I wish?
Do I really have to commit any sin
Does one have to kill someone to be bad?
Isn't just not doing your duty terrible enough?

Lost, Restless, Scared have become my friends
My enemies have become my friends
Would that I never went through this
but then how would I appreciate faith, courage and persistance

That is what I want
whom I want
so the next time a few words flow
they shall be for my friends and not enemies

Fear

The day starts with a fear
will I be good today or bad
I try to stop the tear
that makes the soul sad

Why a sudden loss of control
the determination drained almost
I wish there was a police patrol
that would monitor my lost

They say I have become old
to know what I ought to do
yet unknow to them i'm sold
to my impluses, restlessness and so

I know am not that bad
but I am not to my very best
It is that constant gap that i dread
for I see the expectations in the rest

The day starts with the fear so known
Will myself again be disowned?

Today is my birthday
I turned twenty five
another year went by
a few smiles, a few tears

The lines on my face have deepen
the loss of a friend
the gain of fame
a new image, a new name

a day closer, to my death
a day away from my birth
amazing isn't it this life of the world
ever mysterious, ever unknown

moving ahead,marching ahead
yet unsure, where is my goal
I'm no one great
my name will be lost in a thousand names

I look to favour from my Lord
may I do as much
to have His kind glance on me
and leave this world victorious as him. Amin.

I opened my tiny eyes
And saw her smile
And I knew, I never would need to worry in life
She would take care of me
Till my very last breath

I saw his smile
And I knew he was in love with me
I played hard to get
But he was always patient with me

They both shouted and scolded
They both encouraged and motivated
They both asked me to get down to earth
They both said I was 'perfect'

No one in this world can love
Like they do
If there is any unconditional love
They define it

I love them how much,
I don't know
But I know, that they love me
With everything they have

Sometimes I wonder
Why should they
And they smile and tell you
'Coz you’re mine'

I pray to my Lord today
To keep them happy always
The smile on their face
And happiness in their hearts

For the most beautiful gift God has given us
Are parents.
