Wherever the tides take us,

You'll always... Always be in my heart because a permanent space has been created for you

A space that time and age can never eraze

No matter how hard they tried...

It's funny how we make promises we don't know we cannot keep
Like 'Whenever you call, I'll always pick'...
Simply because at that moment we felt we could keep them

Life taught me a bunch of lessons
Life taught me not to be a menace
Life taught me to be on my own
Life taught me to want no one

But my heart was not at rest
It became soft, decided it wanted a test

A test I never prepared for because I was confident I would pass
I was a 'know-it-all' afterall

The results of that test shames me
My heart... Played me

How did something which belonged to me make a fool out of me
I wanted it to end... This test of outright ridicule

How did I think I did not see this coming?

I guess nothing in this life is yours to keep
Even your own heart and the choices it makes...

*MY WORRYING DAYS ARE OVER!*

The times my day gets hard
I try not to worry because God eventually makes a way
I look up to the sky
My lucky stars lay up there
Twinkling brightly like diamonds

So I heard you panic even before trouble comes
You are skeptical even before you weigh your options
You think there is no hope
But we all see the loop hole
Your unnecessary ‘worrying' cost you your eyes
Your sense of direction, your optimism and even your hope

THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A WAY BECAUSE GOD MAKES ONE AVAILABLE!
Each and every single time...

If providence weren't in your favour... A lot of things would have certainly gone wrong
If you weren't one heck of a lucky child, you'd have been gone in a lot of ways
If God wasn't on your side, the world would have carelessly tossed you aside
If you didn't have grace, you'd have been scorned, mocked and forgotten

We all have our stories to tell...
I hope and pray I live long enough to tell mine

When I was younger, I noticed my dad was always soliloquizing... Always having monologues at random and odd hours...

And I always wondered why because I didn't want him to wake up a mad man on one of those mornings...

Now I understand...

I understand that it was his way of keeping sane to fight the hustle and bustle that every single day brings on, to procure the rudiments of survival in a world that's as salty as the waters. It was his way of forging ahead, making plans and battling those demons that stood in his way. It was his way of thinking deep and hard on life's lessons, cross checking the risks, sieving out the loss and implementing the gain... It was his way of getting by, having a productive day and telling the tales... It was his way of trying his utmost best to provide our needs... It was his way of protecting us

To a child, it was ‘madness'
To a person that understands, it was ‘sanity' at it's peak

I respect him now for all his ‘madness' in my tiny six year old brain

I respect my father...

I have grown weary
Waiting for a day I might never face

Times I lost dearly
Counting the sands and staring at space

Bright eyes got all teary
The second my treasure got lost in a maze

My temper became fiery
A home that was mine is now a hobo's place...

The places our minds wander to with thoughts of never coming back...
The lands we clear with the hopes of achieving better fruits
The long hours we put into our work so it becomes substantial
The burden we carry yearning for release, clamouring for freedom

But our free will has been left to rot in the gutters
Our hope dashed into a thousand pieces
Our lives seeming meaningless because we live it in a cage
Loathing ourselves and scrabbling at straws we'd never use

A great destiny lies ahead- a place of love, peace and serenity
A compensation for the lonesome toil
A reprieve to the ones who suffered in the hands of their nemesis
A consolation for the forceful pledge of loyalty by a heart that aches gravely
A release from the throes of bondage to an ultimate freedom

It is not so far now, I can smell it- the days we don't have to worry because we suffer no more

The day the chains become invisible...

Dearest heart,
I believe we should be on the same team. You make it seem like 'love is so far from me yet so close to me'... You confuse me!
If you could only fight with me and not against me, then surely the world would be a better place for the both of us.
Your owner whom you control

I've willingly done some bad things
Things I'm never proud of
Maybe because I refuse to fear God at those moments
Maybe because I felt they were the right things to do at that time
They are bad things nevertheless...

I see these little misfortunes that come my way as prices I have to pay
Consequences for my foolishness
Repercussions for my dire actions
Penalties for my conscious mishaps.

With a sorrowful heart
I accept them and ask for mercy however I can.

I am only a much bigger fool if I fail to learn from these mistakes...
