Wish for My Tots
Budding years grow with no indifference.
If, stretch your arms giving all room,
stay content for everything you win and own
Every sphere of life holds something new,
awaiting to unfold till you blow.
Your every milestone is a riddle
that you ply, in the kindergarten now.
Look out for a pleasure that make you smile,
your innocence for color, repulsive for bias,
might win few fellows for future endeavor.
Your head and nerve need its own harmony,
to catch up the flow of life, with little efforts of cordial spin.
Your life cycle may rhyme as “Wheels of bus go round and round”.
Budding years wait for your own canvas,
to make no indifference in life.
Arise and awake to make your own choice of destiny
Oh! my little tots.
Where there is time and silence there is thought.
Meditating upon the best grooves I've experienced.
My life has been a long road of love and dispares.
Situations all too enjoyable at peak comfort.
Situations to distressed to enjoy remembering.
To every mind there is a common urge to ascend.
The time happening is a reflection of emotion.
I want a very wholesome and complete future.
My mind is boggled on infinitely for a good idea.
she’s a little taller
a little wilder
she hears stop and just keeps walking
she hears go and takes off running
she does not
take your bullshit
she is not the host
of other people’s dreams
anymore
but she writes them like
they are destinations
she has decided
living is worth more than what could happen
she does not dance like
no one is watching
she dances like
you are watching
and she wants you to fall
just a little bit in love with her
every day that passes
I have the
diamonds sitting in
my lap and I
still will not stop looking for
the coal / when I sleep it
is his skin seeping
into the abyss/ when
you leave it is you in
my head but not on my
fingertips that slip
down down down / the open
door has you glancing and
I can feel myself
writing us out of
your story / there is
something out there I
am not ready to face
without fighting a lose-
lose situation / but this
one is not a question
of uncompromise it is
just me / me standing
hopes-deep in the
sand losing everything so
can you tell / can you
tell me which hinges
to push and pull so
I can have you
back again
The bones landed on the cards. The Fool.
The Sun.
The Chariot to bring them around
in front of me
so my heartbeat would even out
and my hands would stop rivaling
the dry leaves clinging to the sleepy oaks
at the edge of my yard.
They stand against the November wind
sweeping in to usher out October.
Here’s the thing about fortunes:
their fraying corners are soft against your fingers.
I remember the time,
When the world was much simpler,
As little kids we had it all setup for us,
Now see see the world in its true face now,
How it all changed with a few years going by,
I wish I still had the chances I had 5 years ago,
But now I take the chances today give,
Hoping I make the right call,
That I don't regret in 5 year,
Choices I can sit my kids down too,
Say this is what I've done,
Worring will I get disowned by my son,
Or hear Dad, that's so cool,
I want to be just like you,
But life is so fast how can I keep up,
It feels like I'm drowning someone,
I need help someone save me,
By the time I know my fate,
I will already know,
If I made it or if I'm a failure,
Did I let the river run,
Or did I take control,
And stear my own destiny,
To my own goals,
To my own end,
The day I smelled the gasoline forty feet up
I said
I don’t want to miss you like them
I don’t want to be the one
to push you to the wall
Sometimes all you need is a chance
and I speak a different language.
When you’re around
you know my stride is full of you
Maybe if I take half a step
we could change,
we’ll be afraid
of getting to where our hearts storm the drains.
I said
I don’t want to miss you like them
but if that’s what it takes
to live something worth seeing
to write something worth reading
to say something worth telling…
I will gladly take
the heartbreak on my hands.
You say that you’re scared of the unknown
Nobody can say what the future will hold
It’s terrifying going in blind
But I want you to know that you’re not alone.
I’ll be by your side
For as long as you’ll let me
And I’ll help clear the path
That you’re going to follow.
I’ll hold your hand
As we explore together
And when you’re ready
I’ll let someone else take the lead.
Nobody knows what will happen
Or who we will become
But I wouldn’t want to go through
The unknown with anyone else.
