109. WHAT I WOULD LIKE

I would like to sit under the night skies 

And watch the stars’ flickering lights 

Sitting close to you Oh so nice! 

Feeling your arms holding me tight 

I would like to sit and feel the night breeze 

With smell of the sea and fresh jasmine 

Savouring your caress and lingering kiss 

Weakening my bones and teasing my skin 

The stars they shine just like your eyes 

You brought me joy you brought me love 

You opened my heart and made me wise 

You are a gift from God above

108. WALKING AWAY

I am walking away 

I am leaving you behind 

I shall not look back 

Nor shall I pass this way again 

You will become my yesterday 

And you won’t share my tomorrow 

Our lives are too different 

We’ve nothing in common 

My world is wide and well travelled 

Yours is small and closer to home 

My life is riddled with pain and pleasure 

Yours is enclosed under a nut shell 

My heart has been overjoyed 

As many times as it has been broken 

And I do not want any more hurt 

So stay away from me and let me be 

For I am content to be on my own 

You belong with your family 

Don’t forsake them for your own 

Over indulgence and mortal pleasure

107. REPENTANCE

Here I am, standing at the edge of time

Counting hours till the awaited moment

When my life shall be reviewed for crime

Of mortal weakness and eternal torment

Is it now too late to redeem my soul

To cleanse my body of mortal sins

To get back my life and a heart of gold

And be the Temple of God within?

Here I am , out in the cold wintery night

Wondering if there’s reason to go on

If there’s a way to make things all right

And live a new life, the past be bygone

Would He be willing to forgive my wrong

To forget my arrogance and materialistic ways

Would He help me get up and let me be strong

To charter another journey till the end of my days

Here I am, a mortal wreck trying to rebuild

A better life anew

An ordinary being, trying to mend my ways

And what about you?
