The Inner Secrets!



Sometimes how rarely,
could we ever sink into the depth of
the heart......
How barely would it take access,
to collect all the illusory things.
The gloriest emotions dazzling through,
the vains of human...
Simply covering up the flexiest frankness,
hiding inner concepts,
just letting the vanity,
gleaming every moment beside the;
shivering figure........



Just thought of sharing...This is one of ma writings which I like most..... ;)

Loneliness



Staying with nobody,
inside the dark shadows of Life.
A gleaming light which is so...
far and longing for it.


Beside the shelter of light;
Wishing "nobody" is with me.
Still longing for a caring word;
A smile coming from the deapth of the heart...


Accepting everything,
without cursing the life;
Standing someone beside everyone,
With full of loneliness!



Well, well i dunno what made me write this..Probably at a moment i felt too lonely.
So just thought of putting here to share with u all. :)

The Intimate Passion




All the illusory things,
glittering into an intimacy.
A passion leaning throughout the whole life.
Flushing through the vains,
categorizing deepest emotions,
all into a misery.
Raising the humanity,
among the shadows of life,
intimate passion lies beside everyone.
