    INTRODUCTION:

    Poetry releases the imprisoned soul,revealing unutterable words and inexpressible feelings that are trapped inside our hearts for so long ,therefore it is the only medicine to heal the wounds when there is no cure of the aching heart.It isthe second language for the ones who prefer to indicate their feelings in the form of words everytime rather than by their actions.The endless beauty of it is only known to those who let themselves to be fully drowned in the immense sea ofstrong feelings ,emotions and other similar attributes of life..Its charismaticpower attracts the loners , the ones who are hopeless ,the ones who are deprived,the ones who are longing for love ,affection and moreover the ones who find ithard to express theirselves and are unable to comprehend their own selves."POETRY IS WHEN AN EMOTION HAS FOUND ITS THOUGHT AND THE THOUGHT HAS FOUND ITS WORDS." hence it is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.

    Take a deep breath and relax .Just recite the poems in your heart ,you do not need to figure out the hidden meaning behind each poem they will surely speak by themselves .Its essence will lead u into a different world and make u feel so relaxed and refreshing

    much more than after having a hot cup of tea .

    Have you ever met a person in your life whom you think has the brightest smile,an unusual form of shine in his/her eyes and the way he/she leaves the sparkle all around where ever they go ,whenever you talk to them or tell them your secretsyou feel a lot more relaxed as if opening up yourself to them is silently healing your wounds .You see that person enjoying each moment of life regardless of all those worries,not knowing infact not comprehending what exactly is hidden behind all of this .When you come to know that how much effort was required to fakethat smile and how much grief is present in their soul,the shine in their eyesis just because they are bedewed with pain and regrets ,when you realize that infront of everyone just to hide their gloomness they seem to be having fun but inreal they are aching from inside .a sudden form of pitiness arises deep inside

    you and this pain can be seen and felt only by those who themselves have encountered such situations.This poem is for the person whom I have met and felt her pain ,tried my best to comfort her and make her forget her past and moreover telling her to be concerned about her future .That is the only way one can be successful .Read this poem try to absorb it into your soul so that if you get along with such a person you can undertsand them better instead of judging them incorrectly.

    A GIRL HIDING MILLION TEARS...

    The girl who is sitting there is hiding her tears

    you see her laugh,you have never seen her cry

    she tells you about the past ,you tell her to think about the future

    even when she fights you see the anger,all you fail to see is the reason behindthis sudden eruption

    you see her playing and laughing around but you never see her hiding and breaking down

    pain is in her heart,tears in her eyes still she looks stunning when she fakes that smile

    you pass by her throwing tantrums realizing not even once how it would be if youwere in her shoes

    she is like a star falling apart,like a child being left alone in the dark

    you only see what she chooses to show you still you had never understand what her journey is all about

    stop juding ,stop mocking because you do not know that the girl sitting there hides away million of tears.

    What exactly comes in your mind when you hear this word "Women" ? most of you will say that they are the ones who play the role of mothers ,sisters and wives,but thats where you are missing something really important .Women are indeed the most compromising creatures and are the blessing of God for the mankind.You do not know how weak they are from inside ,fragile like a glass which can

    easily be shattered if not handled with care ,but not all of them .Whatever thesituation is they prove themselves to be strong enough to tackle it by standingfirm on the ground and most probably by giving sacrifices.They are the ones whoare ready to serve whatever they have or whatever they can to save their familyfrom falling apart due to any reason.People say they are much sensitive and losetheir control easily they do not know how powerful can a woman be if they justtry to show their hidden side -yes- the brave side of her.Go through this poem and you will come across some beautiful realities about women ,their importance and everything else which enables them to gain respect from the people surrounding them. "There is a secret in our culture, And it's not that childbirth is painful, It's that women are strong."

    "STRONG"

    Crimson red are her cheeks,shiny like diamonds are those eyes

    shining with imperfection and undefeatable determination

    she is a furious lioness,a deadly fire pure like a holy book ,mysterious like amaze;

    although she stands alone her one prayer is enough to shake the skies,

    heaven beneath her foot,uncountable responsibilities upon those shoulders

    strong and hard as a rock;silent as the storm

    played like a chess game ,used like a paper

    as deep as an ocean the heart holds secrets;

    whatever she goes through a women remains strong.

    The most bitter reality of life is that the people who were once the reason foryour smile becomes the reason for your tears.They meant everything to you ,losing them was your biggest fear .When they were around the world seemed brighter indeed they were another part of your soul,but when at the time they were needed the most they left you without giving you any chance to think ,you were there crying and lamenting why you did not realized it before that they are going to hurtyou afterwards in your life.This feeling rips up your heart,until you find outthat they were not meant for you ,it does not matter if they were everything toyou ,difficult times reveals true colours of people . All those tears are useless once you got to know that they were nothing other than a sharp knife who decieved you pricking you deep inside ,leaving your side when the world seemed upsidedown.The mental and physical space we create by letting go of things that belong in our past gives us...the option to fill the space with something new. - so the best therapy to forget your past is to let go of the things/people which bothered you the most eventhough you had given them the special space in your heartyou must let go."In the process of letting go you will lose many things from thepast,but you will find yourself.It will be a permanent Self' rooted in awareness and creativity.Once you have captured this ,you have captured the world." Releasing all those images and emotions,the grudges and fears,the clingings and disappointments of the past that binds your spirit gives you a chance to live in thefuture.

    "PEOPLE LIKE YOU"

    I sing a song to myself compose it all on my own;

    When you left I broke down, when you left I was left alone

    The moon in the sky hide itself the stars shine lost itself

    The blooming flowers closed themselves and everywhere I looked sadness arose

    Cold wind blew and flew my hair ;

    The scars were open ,the rain was harsh,Every single tear melted my heart,

    but I forgot just one damn thing you had meant the world to me

    Even when you left the world didn't end ,I realized just one thing

    I had turned my face away from the world

    Now that I turn my face to the sun all the shadows fall behind

    The sky is clear now,the sun shines bright now,the scent of the flowers surroundme now

    Even now at some parts of my life I cry for you ;

    I remember how you had wiped those tears away but then again I get reminded youare the reason for them

    I've realized that people change and memories fade and most importantly,most essentially what has never changed in me is my soul to keep my self alive, to keep

    myself held upright

    coz no matter wherever I go I make new friends and enemies and I 've realized just one thing life is too short to cry for people like you and you will realize what you had and what you lost you'll never meet anyone like me.

    Memories never die.The only thing left in the end is the memories,some of them will burn you like a fire some will pick you up and make you fly on the sky withthem.Life is too short and time passes in a blink of an eye ,the ones who were part of your life becomes part of another .They do not have the time to look backeven to clear the messed up things . You realize the true worth of something until it becomes a memory ."People change .Love hurts.Friends leave.Things go wrong.But just remember that life goes on..time stops for no one ." its true that life carries on but the memories of our past sometimes kill us everytime they areremembered.

    "MEMORIES"

    As I stare into the fire and watch it dance

    All the memories start rushing through my head

    Tears flow down my cheeks

    And it flashes back to the time

    When you were with me;

    You had wiped the tears off my face

    And your shoulders had provided me support

    I can't believe it is all lost now

    And all I am left with

    Is just a memory of you and me together..

    The safest place to be in, is someones heart ,the warmest place to be in is someones arms.When you are tired facing challenges of life ,tired of getting hurt ,tired of living your life full of dangers and all you want is to hold the hands of the ones whom you feel secure .You just want to live your life having them byyour side and when they are near you nothing else in this world can harm you. ''When you love someone its like you give them your heart with a map and a knife m

    arking the spot it will hurt the most''

    "SAFE AND SOUND"

    I was walking all alone on this lonely path

    When I saw the light coming my way.

    An angel flew by me and I saw her smile

    I don't know why but her eyes resembled yours.

    It wasn't long before I realized it was you.

    And yet again I remembered someone telling me;

    My destiny she had said "In the midst of hell , you'll find heaven."

    And I know now the heaven is here with you and me together now .

    Together we can fight any danger just hold my hands tight

    I live in your eyes just remember this

    'cause I remember myself saying that I want to

    Live in your eyes, Die in your arms and be buried in your heart.

    Now just hold my hands tight 'cause we are

    Safe and sound

    With our hands locked

    Together now and forever ...

    We are all born alone,Family is the gift we are blessed with by our Almighty God

    but a choice that he gives to us is to select our another family as well that is our friends which are another family we can hold onto apart from our blood relations.In my school life I supported a friend when she needed someone the most Iwas there and my little act of support and fighting back for her captured sucha great piece of her heart nd her mind that became hard for me to drive her awayfrom me although I knew she might get hurt by me but she never left my side andwas there,is there and hopes to be there by my side forever and always.May Godbless her with success she never introspected of and this poem is just alittle dedication I could do.

    I have met so many people all this time ,never met anyone special like you

    I have been adored by many but never loved by anyone like you

    always had my angelic sid ehidden by this demonic mask;u reached out and touchedmy soul

    felt the pain i've felt before

    told me that i am worth it ,told me that you care ,the love and affection that you showed brought up the good side of me ;

    you encouraged me like no one else,you bring out the best in me

    never could i have introspected that I'd be blessed by a friend like you

    I have given place to many but none of them can compete with you,

    God has given me a friend like you ,can't afford to lose someone with a beautiful soul like you..

    Love is not when it seems to you that everything is beautiful,it is when you can't see anything except the face of that person everywhere.Even the flowers which seemed to have lost their shine you feel that the sparkel has returned and even one moment without that person in your life seems like minute streched into hours of just waiting for that special one to show around.Your every prayer has their name and you everythought echoes their laugh.That is the purity and sincerity of love and the feeling of being loved.

    " I AM THERE BY YOUR SIDE "

    Even if you dont see me regularly i'm still watching you

    even if you dont talk to me regularly ,I still hear the words you want me to hear

    just coz i'm not there to hug you tight doesn't means i'm not there by your side

    thoughts of you echo in my head all the time

    a glittery memory among the dark past is our relation,something i hold onto evenwhen everything seems falling apart ;

    locked up somewhere deep in me was my existence hidden away ,afraid to come in t

    he light

    you took my hands and showed me that I'm special to someone, you embraced me andtold me there are no fears which i have to fight alone ;

    now the only wish i have in my prayers is we remain together for now till eternity

    our story to be the most fascinating fairytale

    even in the world of demons and dark the only hope ,

    A wish that came true when it hadn't even reached my lips

    so just remember i'm here for you forever and you and me together are one soul .

    In school life we meet many people of our age,some who share the same interestas ours,some who have the same nature as ours,some who are the quite listeners to whom you can share everything with and they won't even utter a singel word andspeak at just the right moment when its required,some who laugh with you and atevery joke,get patriotic,sometimes angry and the other times protective for you

    and some who are good at studies,cracking silly jokes and good to hangout with.My school life was full with friends.A circle of people with whome I could be me,Just me no pretending,just us and our silly lame jokes..

    ''BEST FRIENDS''

    Memories,tears,laughter and cries all the bright moments about to fly

    We have spent so much time over here we have had so much fun over here

    those little water fights,Those little party times we used to have will be gonein no time

    We had punishments given to us together and laughed when the teachers scolded us

    When one of us got into trouble the rest of us used to laugh at her

    all these will be gone in no time and all that will remain is memories of us together

    spent 10 years all together still craving to spend some more time together

    we have promised each other to stay in contact how many will keep that promise t

    ime will tell

    so memories,tears,laughter and cries all the bright moments about to fly.

    Hope you enjoyed this journey of true feelings expressed with words that only those can understand who sat back,relaxed and moved along with the changing emotion that every poem offered.
