Our War For "Peace"

Don't you think
It's time to forget,
Time to let go,
To leave behind the fights,
That started long ago.?
Why do we fight,
Like witless children
Over ruined walls.?
Why have we closed
Our hearts to the endless cry,
Of beaten humanity.?
Why do we raze the lands,
Like monsters on loose.?
Why has our brothers' blood
Not moved our heart?
Why do we burn, in the fire of revenge,
Those who never wronged us?
Why do we fight each other
When none of us have a reason?
Peace? God? Why?
Why do we act like strangers,
When someone our own,
Pass by, drenched in blood,
Shed out of the baseless fury
That we have nurtured in our hearts
Like a sapling of burning vengeance?
Why do we hold the swords,
Stained with the blood of strangers.?
Don't you feel that after all these years,
It is finally time to forget,
To forgive and  let go,
And to start anew.
Please.

I Stand Alone

I stand alone,

I wish someone would hold my hand

And guide me through this storm.

The chill sets the bones on fire,

Is there no one to cuddle me warm.

I weep in the corner, silently;

I wish someone would sit there by me.

The clouds shriek, the heavens rip apart. 

I am scared of the sudden light in the darkness.

Will no one hold me? love me?

I am vulnerable and weak,

My hope were long gone

Today, I stand alone.

A Gazillion Miles Away

When I sat that night, alone in my room

I stared out of the window, into the dark.

My eyes beheld the stars, shining faintly,

But My mind went back to you.

I remember your laugh, your eyes and your lips,

Your soft hands and their feel on mine.

I remember the time you stood up for me,

When even I had left my side,

I remember you crying, hugging me close,

To make sure that I was with you, as you were for me.

I remember our closeness, the time and its stillness.

I remember we parting, tears everywhere.

Today I am here, You- I don't know where.

But as I sit, remembering you, I know

You must be too, thinking of me,

somewhere in this world,

A gazillion mile away.

The Beginning of A New Chapter.

There are millions of eyes looking at me, but I have got only two to stare back. There are people thinking of me-right at this moment, but my mind is far away, wandering amidst the unknown. The world is small, yet it is big enough for me. Life is short and yet a long struggle for me. You are you. Let Me be Me. I have always been Me. I can't become a "You"  just because you want Me to. The world is mine to enjoy, my life is mine to spend. This is Me and this is Mine. Welcome!
