Let me be your life

So soothing is your smile
Let me be your thoughts
So mesmerizing is your gaze
Let me be your conscience

So enchanting is your embrace
Let me be your pride
So magical is your love
Let me be your honour

So exciting is your touch
Let me be your dreams
So exhilarating is your caress
Let me be your heartbeat

So passionate is your kiss
Let me be your lover
So beautiful is your world
Let me be your life

Loving him

Loving him is so easy
The smile that comes from within
when he is beside me

The blush on my cheeks
by his intense gaze
The warm glow in my heart
when he holds my hand

The spark and that excitement
when we dance
The euphoria
when he puts his arms around me

Maybe when he dreams
He’ll dream of me
Dream of me

Atrocities

The killings...the massacres...all over the world
These atrocities are beyond humans
they are not humans who did this
They are not humans
who indoctrinate these beliefs in our youth..
ending their lives mirthlessly
along with many innocent ones

They are not humans
who ingrain false motives in our youth
they are the worst teachers of today
they are not teaching
but brainwashing young minds
for motives for themselves only
to become the most wealthy
to become the powerful
Such ignorance
I pity them...all

For they forgot when they would die
all would be left behind..
nothing would go with them
not a single penny
not a single cloth
Such ignorance
I pity them....all

They are not humans who are behind these atrocities
definitely not humans.
