Illusions
The difference between you and me is quite simple.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.

the widow's might
For I have never been that poor, [nor have I
ever] been that rich.”―Edwina Gateley
predicament is not the balm of fools,
nor palaces of comfort to the poor;
the worldly-wise thinks that the world he rules
must build new granaries his wealth to store.
then comes the widow with her conscience clear
who, in her giving, reckons not the cost
of emptiness, inspired by godly fear,
to give the least, yet sacrifice the most.
trust not the quantum of your dollar-worth, ...

Adhoora Sapna...
Adhoora Sapna
पहले मेरे जीवन का एक सरल सपना था
जिसमें रोटी, कपडा, और मकान अपना था
उस जीवन में, माँ बाप का सहारा था...

People's solidarity
When you see the power of solidarity
All disputes and contradictions are scattered
All the people come together for one work
one word
hand in hand
Help our brothers
One man stood and stood
To help our countrymen
Why can't we always be united?
Why unite only in times of disaster
Why don't we always stay united and one hand?
The human mentality must learn a lesson
Union is strength and brings peace
In unity we can overcome all problems
Today, after the disaster, we are hand in hand
Tomorrow we will see if only we are...

Why Didn't She Tell Us About This?
Mom and
Dad were both
informed
that Wendy took a
job at a local
strip club in order
to have
college bills
paid up.

Dark "Draconian Law"
First we invade and persuade every mortal human being, threw various methods and many ritualistical schemes!!
Threw all performance 🎭 and art presented to their eyes and minds, by televisions and on movie screens!!
While remaining concealed moving in the shadows in secrecy, which helps cloak are democracy, and make it that much harder to be revealed or even seen!!
Symbols an signs in symbiotic connections is how we'll keep them trapped and blind all done by design!
Poisoning everything the masses use, from food to water and drinks, even...

The Woman You See
Ever the happy-go-lucky child
Idyllic upbringing into womanhood
Strong and self assured
Or
The façade of such a person
Checking off each passing day
Akin to the doomed Iphigenia
With no
fairy godmother
to
rescue
her
Idyllic upbringing into womanhood

The façade of such a person

No man’s land
She dreamt of a love pure as the driven snow . Unblemished. It isn’t though . Love is messy it hurts at times and it hides behind pride . It lacks compassion and words and lies . Not in the beginning but give it time . The believer becomes the atheist for ever more and it can never open up like before . Once your trust has been tested beyond all sane comprehension, I have cancer he said to cover up an affair with a baby on the way. Pain sets up home . It’s a form of personal protection . It is though the end of the line . A destructive destination . She stands on no man’s land ....

Sacrifice
you can say whatever you want
I'll sell my soul to the devil
if only to protect the broken
maybe that makes me evil
using his power
but I ain't dumb
I know I'll burn up
when it's all said and done
but with each flame
is a life I'll save
picture me with a smile on my face
just know it cost me everything
I can be your hero
I can be your savior
I can hold up the world
I can get the girl
I can also be your sacrifice
the one to blame for all your pain
hurling insults my way
just know it cost me...
I'll sell my soul to the devil
if only to protect the broken
maybe that makes me evil
using his power
but I ain't dumb
I know I'll burn up
when it's all said and done
but with each flame
is a life I'll save
picture me with a smile on my face
just know it cost me everything
I can be your hero
I can be your savior
I can hold up the world
I can get the girl
I can also be your sacrifice
the one to blame for all your pain
hurling insults my way
just know it cost me...
