The World
Embrace the tumultuous chaos
on the streets of pain,
Flood the mouths of children with shame,
Watch us put these writing on the walls,
We all laugh as the leader falls,
The people cheer for the fire,
Now is the end and our time has come,
Nothing you do can come undone,
I’m laying on the ground hoping to get higher,
I close my eyes and dip my head back,
Smiling because the end is soon to come,
I’m ready to leave this world behind,
To get away from the evil eyes,
Away from mass murderer lies,
Everyone is waiting for the king,
Their praying and praying to be saved,
But the snake will bite us with
one single sting,
And the world will be gone,
Well be with our King.

A PRAYER FOR MY COUNTRYMEN
O! God let all prosper
Let suffering itself suffer
And dungeon all evils
That kill our talent and skills
Put smile on parched faces
Be kind to all races
Make us courteous and jolly
Get us rid of our own folly
Make us masters of odds of life
Bless us with a successful strife
In our endeavour to become humane
Make sane those gone insane
Bless our noble dreams with success
Bless us with mercy in our distress
Let our despondency melt away
Show us in gloom a bright ray
Help us elevate our souls
Help us achieve our goals
Enlighten us with noble thoughts
And remove all shabby blots
From our narrow vision
Bless us with powers of reason
Release us from the bondage of hate
In amity and harmony seal our fate.

LIVING IN HARMONY
Longing for silence and serenity,
Strolling and ambling vitality,
Sifts every scrap of wisdom
with curiosity
Nothing is more
unhampering
and emboldening
Than to be fond of
one’s own company,
Altogether, considering
others with harmony

YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME FALL
You may see me struggle
but you won’t see me fall.
Regardless if I’m weak or not
I’m going to stand tall.
Everyone says life is easy
but truly living it is not.
Times get hard,
people struggle
and constantly get put on the spot.
I will make everyone smile
With my foolish jokes
To realize people this is not an exile
I’m going to wear
the biggest smile
even though I want to cry.
I’m going to fight to live
even though I’m destined to die.
And even though it’s hard
and I may struggle through it all.
You may see me struggle…
but you will NEVER see me fall ..
…. You will NEVER see me fall !
