Longing...

I longed to talk to him

and I longed for him to listen

I longed to see that assurance in his eyes

All I got was disapproving looks

no empathy, just unwanted smirks

I longed for him to hold me and tell me 

that it would all be fine one day

All I got was a list of reasons proving why I deserved it, 

it was all my fault.

I longed for him to say Bravo, its a job well done

All I got was a passing congrats with an underlying 'whats great about that'

I longed to be cherished

but was always told that I should only give,

not expect anything in return.

I longed for love, a bit too long

I have nothing left but this little song,

But as they say life does go on.

And love, well that never dies,

so with life the longing too goes on!

Union of Souls

Can you hear the waves kissing the shore
The gentle love they make today

Can you feel the joy of the butterfly
As it mates with the blossoming rose

Can you see the birds twitter away
Fondling together as one soul

Can you smell the chocolate as it melts
Becoming one with the ice cream cone

Oh can you taste the salty tears, as they run down your happy eyes?
Are your senses aware of my existence, around you, forever, even when I'm no more!

I wonder

I wonder
Wonder why the eyes fill with tears
Why the throat chokes when the heart cries
I wonder why certain things never change no matter how earnestly you pray
Why do we trust people only to be bertrayed not once but again n again

I wonder why we hide our deepest sorrow
Why deep inside
Our souls are lonely and sad

I wonder why true love doesn't exist
Why relations are nothing but bounderies to your free will

I wonder when I see happy faces
Wonder how much pain they hide so cleverly

I wonder when I see
Gestures of kindness
Wonder what selfish motives are behind it

I wonder why I live
Why all this sorrow doesn't take me!

But I was Wrong

I thought he needed me

But I was wrong

I thought he respected me

But I was wrong

I thought I was his world

But I was wrong

I thought it was love

But it broke my heart

And left an emptiness, a permanent scar

I am measured by only what I give

And I give-in, fail against an ego so stark.

I thought it was love

But I was wrong

I thought days would be full of life

But I was wrong

I thought our minds would think alike

But our hearts search different dreams

I thought...

But I was wrong.
