Lighthouse on the shore

I need a man who can save me,
From the demons in my head,
I need a man who'll love me,
For whom no tears I shed.
I need a man who'll hold me,
Lovingly in his arms,
I need a man who accepts me,
All my quirks and qualms,
I need a man who is willing,
To receive this and more,
I need a man who is safety,
Like a lighthouse on the shore.

Eena Meena Dika... Forever.

The man in a white kurta, standing tall an proud,
His phone sings "Eena meena dika" clear and loud,
He dances a little dance, before flipping open his cell,
Why would you put this man through hell?
You say he has a week, and that he has fought long and hard,
For a long time yet, from happiness we will be barred.
Yet in the same house, happiness does shine a light,
With little Leela's laugh, so gentle and bright.

Quietly, that day, his soul left this world.
Leaving our hearts caught up in a whirl.
A soul like a storm, a brilliant gale,
When he left this world, his body was frail.
No earthly structure was good enough,
This man was as gentle as his soul was tough.
A loving and caring individual was he,
And we all miss him so, yes, so dearly.

Bittersweet

The bittersweet notes of the violin of life plays as I embark upon a new journey.
This time, alone, I think of the reasons why I should not be afraid.

Here are the top 5 reasons to not be afraid of walking alone.

1) You've been alone everywhere. You're born alone, and you die alone. Your soul arrives and leaves the planet alone.

2) Being alone is not equal to being lonely. There's so much you can do with just being by yourself. Read a book. Stand on your terrace and breathe. Visit a museum. Sit in the park and observe.

3) You don't have to wait for anyone or anything. You're your own boss!

4) You'll always find someone to love. But it might be too late to learn to love yourself if you don't start at once!

5) Your goals can be idealistic or realistic, just as you wish. There's nobody to please but you. Your conscience is your only confidante.

Once you swim the depth of these five ideas, you will open your heart to the rest of the world in ways unimaginable. The spectrum of colours that burst from within are so glorious.

Smiles and Glass

Seems like the end of an era. 
Will I hold on or float away?
Will things fall in place, 
Or will nostalgia rule?
Will smiles come with broken glass
Or will there be truth?
Is happiness going to be heavy?
Or as light as a dewdrop on a petal?
Roses might bloom, roses might die,
Will I prevent tears from escaping my eyes?
