Fear

For long time I was in a thought chaos trying to understand what fear means. People with different perceptions would justify the word with different circumstances they encounter.

 Tireless rain for long hours,

Water dropping of the roof like showers,

All a sudden, there was a spark,

Light turned into dark,

Gushing sound of the breeze,

Clash of windows, my heart in freeze,

Knock at the door,

Mouth opened with trembling sound,

Body wet, not of rain, Sweat on drain,

Who, who, who cried in tear,

It’s me inside you, I am FEAR……

Tick Tock

Tick Tock

It’s racing ahead, it’s showing on my face,
Try as I might, I can’t control its pace,
Nor can I get it back, only memories to embrace,
I need to make each DAY count.

Each new dawn, a plan’s chalked out for me,
I fall behind a bit, thinking I’ll get there eventually,
Ignorant of the high price for something that was free,
I must make each HOUR count.

Why do I indulge in frivolous gossip?
Why forget blessings and constantly crib of hardship?
Why give in to temptations and let my morals slip?
Why don’t I make each MINUTE count?

One tiny glance away, may cost a life,
One deep breath when enraged can spare the knife,
One gulp of ego; love prevails between man and wife,
Those tiny little seconds, oh how they count!
Yes, I’m gonna make every little SECOND count.
