I'll Be There For You

When you find your days are bad
And every single moment is sad,
I'll be there to bring a cheer
Because for me you are so dear.

At times when you feel like screaming
While life seems to have no meaning,
I'll be there to calm you down
Because I don't want you to frown.

When you are feeling very blue
and you're confused for what is true,
I'll pray to God to lift your spirits
while I make you smile in minutes.

I'll stand by you when others have gone,
I'll be a shoulder for you to cry on,
Away your loneliness I will send
And all your wounds, I will mend.

I'll help you face your fears,
I'll wipe away all your tears,
When you need, just call for me
And right beside you, there I'll be.

I'll share all secrets and thoughts
Will never let you down at any cost,
I'll be your true friend, you'll see
Not just now, but for eternity.

So when you are upset and gloomy
Don't hesitate to call on me,
Don't worry of what to do
I'll always be there for you...

How Do I Tell Her

I searched among the card displays,
To see if I could find,
A little something that would say
Just what was on my mind.

However there was not a one,
That captured it just right,
For no one else can understand
Just what I'd like to write.

I even find it difficult
To try and write it down,
For how do I portray to her,
The love that I have known?

I close my eyes and what I see,
Is someone I adore,
A person who is beautiful,
Right down into her soul.

Mere words cannot describe
The many qualities she show,
The love and caring nature that
She shares with those who know.

Her kind and gentle temperament,
Her sweet angelic smiles,
Her softly spoken sentiments,
That reach across the miles.

Her smile and laugh that sparkles with
The softness of her sighs,
The way her face lights up a room
That twinkle in her eyes.

I shall therefore, be satisfied
That she must simply know,
Just how I feel about her,
For with words I cannot show..

My Special Someone

You changed my world with a blink of an eye
That is something that I can never deny,
You put my soul from worst to best
That is why you are my dearest.

You just don't know what you have done for me
You pushed me to the best that I can be,
You are an angel sent from above
To take care of me and shower with love.

With you, I will never shed a tear
Your touch has chased away all my fear,
You gave me a life that I can live worthwhile
It gets even better everytime you smile.

Its so magical, those things you've made
To bring back my faith that almost fade,
Now my life is a dream come true
It all began when I was loved by you.

Now I have found what I am looking for
It's you and your love and nothing more,
Because you have made my heart to melt
In my life something I've never felt.

I wish I could talk till the end of this day
But now I'm running out of things to say,
So I'll end by the line you already know
"I LOVE YOU" more than what I could ever show...

Stress

Some people think that stress is bad
Something that makes you crazy and mad,
I look at it in a very different way
And for that I am who I am today.

Instead of letting it all build up
Just look at someone and yell "shut up!"
Instead of getting all red in the face
Just be brave and put someone in place.

Instead of letting the tears pour down
Except for you, make someone else frown,
Why to get all wound up and tight
Just pick someone and start a fight.

Just knock their smile right off their face
Tell them that they are a big disgrace,
And if they ask you if you are stressed
Tell them "no no, I'm feeling my best."

Because you are not stressed at all
You know how to cope up and stand tall,
The trick is to know that it is never your call
The world is against you and that is all.

Think of this and you will smile
And you will feel better after a while,
I wake up everyday and first thing I say
Life is great and, stress - no way...

My Life

I was told that Life could be just what I made it
It could be fashioned and worn like a gown,
I, the designer, mine the decision
Whether to wear it with a bonnet or a crown.

And I selected the prettiest pattern
So that my life is made of the rosiest hue,
Something unique, and a bit out of fashion
One that perhaps would be chosen by few.

But other folks came and leaned over my shoulder
Someone questioned the ultimate cost,
Somebody tangled the thread I was using
And one day I found that my scissors were lost.

And somebody claimed the material faded
A few suggested it was not worth a corn,
Someone's fingers, too pointed and spiteful
Snatched at the cloth, and it was torn.

Oh! somebody tried to do all the sewing
Stretching all muscles and tiring each bone,
Here is my life, the product of many, But
Where is that gown I could fashion all alone?

Your Wish

If you wish the World were better
Then let me tell you what to do,
Set a watch upon your actions
Keep them always straight and true.
Get rid your mind of selfish motives
Let your thoughts be clean and high,
You can make a little Eden
Of the huge sphere you occupy.

If you wish the World were wiser
Then I suppose you make a start,
By accumulating all the wisdom
In the scrap book of your heart.
Do not waste even a page on folly
Live to learn and learn to live,
If you want to give men knowledge
You must get it before you give.

If you wish the World were happy
Then remember at the start of day,
Just to scatter seeds of kindness
As you pass along the way.
Live in what you think and feel
Put your dreams in actions to do,
The present world is simply waiting
For your wish and just for you...

Star World

I went to a planetarium one day
To visit the stars and the Milky Way,
To see the Orion's Belt, and the Big Dipper too,
And to meet the glowing stars along with their crew.

The stars gleamed like diamonds against an ocean of black
As I looked up at the ceiling to the sides, front and the back,
Impossible to count the stars for there were many
Except the black hole, where I didn't find any.

Taurus, the Bull and Cassiopeia, the Queen
Were part of the night sky I had never seen,
Constellations of Sagittarius and Gemini, the Twins
All made up of stars like the heads of tiny pins.

No matter which way I look up in the sky
I could see stars throughout the corners of each eye,
The Signs of the Zodiac were this way and that,
Shooting stars were right above me, over the seat where I sat.

I went to a planetarium that day
To visit the stars and the Milky Way,
Now when I look at the night from my room,
I see lots more than just the stars and the Moon...

I Died Last Night

I died last night, in that deep blue sea
Why weren’t you there, when you had promised to be,
In the cold water, I called your name
But u didn't come when things were not the same.

Each wave of the water, pulled me deep inside
I couldn’t get you out of my head, no matter how much I tried,
Thinking of you in my last moment, I guess that’s just fair
Before I give up, tell me, did you ever really care?

I died last night, in that deep blue sea
But I had stopped living, the day you set me free...

If Only

If only I could write a beautiful poem
I would write it specially for you,
So that we forever remain, so very true
With more than a goodness, like something new.

Like the everlasting stay of the sky so blue
Like the purple flower at dawn holding the dew,
Something that never fades away with time
Like the memories put together in a rhyme.

This friend always wants a smile for you
And will not be happy until you are too,
I can spend each and every day with you
No matter what you say and what you do.

With happiness that remain all through the year
Knowing that you will always be near,
With the happy feeling of living close to you
I would write the poem just for you...

I'm On My Own

I feel much better when I'm all alone,
I feel so together when I'm on my own,
No one can listen what I have to say,
No one can tell me where I have to stay.

I hate being around people,
They always bring me down,
I wish they would just go away,
Then maybe I wouldn't frown.

My life is so screwed up,
And no one understands,
They don't know the pain I feel,
They don't care to put in their hands.

But I guess I'm good off alone,
Things are just better this way,
I'm free to do what I want to,
And not what others say...

I Doubt...

I doubt anyone would write for me
Since I so rarely get,
The things I set my heart upon
The things I might regret.

So little do I now expect
And have little hope or fear,
I draw a circle around myself
And find my pleasure there.

I do not like my acquaintances
nor do they like me,
Their words are hard, like jagged rocks
Their trembling eyes like scree.

Alone I read, I dream, I shout
With my music loud I wait,
For something that will never come
I blame my faultless fate.

I throw myself upon others' will
Yet know none will ever say,
The words that show me to myself
And burn my heart away...

This One's for You

Friendship is the kind of love
that never can grow old,
Warm and cozy it will stay
when other things get cold.

Friendship is a feeling so true
it can never be denied,
Because a good friend will always
be there by your side.

Strangers and acquaintances come and go
in this game of life we play,
But a true friend, no matter what,
in your heart will always stay.

So hold these friends close to you,
and never ever let them go.
Think how much they mean to you,
and make sure to tell them so.

So today i searched for all my words
just to tell something to you,
You've been a lovely friend and
I feel this so very true.

Mere words cannot describe
the good and the best in you,
I just wish you be my friend forever and,
my dear friend, this one's for you...

MY DEAR FRIEND

To you a sweet and special friend
with this poem my thoughts i send,
I thought I'd tell you just how much
by meeting you my life was touched.

I was forever looking down and out
all I knew was how to shout,
To curse and point others' sin
to be to all so very mean.

But when you entered my life and light
I can't tell, how much I've been a sight,
you stood by me when I cared for nothing
you backed me up when my life was soothing.

You wrapped me in your loving arms
and with a smile you gave me charms,
If I need you, you promised you'd be
everywhere I looked and everywhere I'd see.

Why you wanted me as your friend?
Why you helped my hurts to mend?
you told me, you got me for free
But I know, you did this for me.

Friend, you are an angel, it is true
thanks for loving me, as to others you do,
Because you answered my heart's call
I wish a friend like you to each and all...

GO WITH THE FLOW

If the sky above seems cloudy
and you are let out in the rain,
If you are searching for a rainbow
but the colours bring you pain.

If your world is not revolving
and there is no end in sight,
If you are looking for sunshine
but all you see is only night.

If all around you are smiling
but all you can do is frown,
If you are tired of all this living
when life just brings you down.

Then look beyond your teardrops,
at the wonders of this land,
The beauty of a flower
like the world in your hand.

Remember scenes of beauty
in your heart's base,
Feel the nature around you
as she kisses your face.

Seek the good within you
cast the clouds from your sky,
Don't look at the earth
but hold your head up high.

Think not what life owes you
but of all you have to give,
Forget about tomorrow
then you can start to live.

Bless this age you are living in
with the gifts you can bestow,
Don't disregard the stream of life
Just go gently with the flow...

CAN YOU HELP

I read the dictionary and started dreaming
The next thing I remember is I got up screaming.
When the English tongue we speak
Why is break not rhymed with freak?
Will you tell me then why it’s true,
We say sew just the same like few.

And the maker of "verse",
Cannot rhyme "horse" with "worse"?
"Beard" is not the same as "heard",
"Cord" is different from the "word",
If "cow" is cow, then why not "low" is laow,
Tell me why "shoe" is never rhymed with "foe"?

Think of comb with tomb and bomb,
And think of doll with roll and home with some.
And since "pay" is rhymed with "say",
Why not "paid" with "said" I pray?
Think of blood with food and good,
Then why "mould" is not pronounced as "could".

Why done and gone differ from lone
Is there any reason known?
The fight of "to" and "go" is old,
But never to us the reason is told.
To sum up all, it seems to me
Sounds and letters do not agree...

MEMORY LANE

The cold fresh air, the silent breeze,
The place where we learnt what engineering meant.
The memories flood our imagination
Of the memorable years here spent.

Memories of the days when
Hostels were a home away from one.
Where we shared our room and joys,
Sorrows and dreams of what we would become.

Friends taught us the perfection of
The mechanism of what we call life.
Those bunks and road trips to nowhere,
That last minute examination strife.

The result days when nothing was
As it had earlier seemed to be.
But despite the shocks and dissappointments
In our friends' eyes we could winners see.

The late night goofs and games of card
And concern for the next mischievious technique.
The jokes that only we could understand,
There's something great in the college's mystique.

Its ironic how we came to study here
Its just engineering what we see.
But somewhere in that process discovered,
The kind of human beings we would eventually be...

YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL

I am your special angel,
On orders from above.
To see that as a child of God
You receive special Love.

God sent me down to find you
I knew exactly where to look.
For your name is written down
In His big address book.

He said I'd recognize you,
From your tiny turned up nose.
You'd have two shell like ears
Complete with two ear lobes.

He then gave me a choice
Of your left ear or your right.
He said I could stay in either one
To be with you day and night.

If your ear begins to tickle
From the flutter of my wings.
Remember I am an angel
And angels do these things.

Now if you get to feel sad
Or kind of feeling scare.
Just tug upon your earlobe
I promise to be there.

I'll come straight to your help
Because that's my job to do.
God thinks you're very special
That's why he sent me to care for you...

DO IT TODAY

Drop a pebble in the water,
Its ripples will reach out far.
And the sun-beams dancing on,
May reflect them to a star.

Give a smile to someone passing,
Thereby making his morning glad.
It may greet you in the evening,
When your own heart may be sad.

Do a deed of simple kindness,
Though its end you may not see.
It may be like widening ripples,
Dawn a long eternity...

PROMISE ME

Do not stand upon my grave and weeep
Do me a favour and let me sleep.
I won't be there, by your side forever
But when you close your eyes, you'll find us together.
My body and my heart may not survive
But memories of my life will always be alive.
Read my mind and get in deep
You'll find million dollar words and promises to keep.

Life is not what you speak and live
It is all what you get and give.
If your heart is true and spirits' high
You'll be alive even after you die.
Spread the message of love and admire
You'll get the love you desire.
Share the sorrows, share the smiles
You can carry love for millions of miles.
If you miss me, then look around you
You'll find me in the smiles that'll come for you.
Once I die, remember the promises to keep
Do not stand upon my grave and weep...
