I like writing my perception and beliefs and things happened to my friends

and laugh.Hope you hav great time with me.

A Cry Of A Woman
They say I am a complicated wreck
I am selfish and unsuccessful brat
I use them and I play them around
I am a rotten apple and a greatest clown.
They ask me if I have an aim
If I’ll be rich and a big tycoon someday
If I’ll ever leave home and pay back the worth of my stay
If I’ll be like other daughters and leave them today.
They punch my heart with their words
I have been a notorious girl
I can’t cook or sew the shirt
I don’t know how to quarrel with my servants
They said you are women
Your only job is to lay down and get beaten
You bible should be full of adjustments
You should reproduce and grow them
They said not to raise my voice
You should not stand for your paradise
You should get married and grow old
You should touch your husband feet and call him lord
Then I say I care less if you call me madwoman
I was send by god to be worshipped not condemned
I will cut my hairs and wear the paints
Just to prove my existence and be a freedwoman.
I will die as a martyr and will worship my own self
But I will not be a woman of exhibitions
I will also walk this earth as a sadist
To prove my worth in this man's world.

Love
I find you in my arms other night
While you were sleeping I was listening to you in quiet
It’s amazing how your breath falls in my ear to prove my ecstasy
How I know life without you will be incomplete serenity.
I am scared and so afraid to fall in love
Will you think I am weak when I tremble when I speak?
Without you I am like a fool
Look I am laying my heart in my hand for you..
I live my life like living in a snow hill
Where hasn’t been sunshine to touch my soft heart?
I lay down at night to find you in these stars,
I talk to moon about you and me.
I wonder if ever god has fallen in love and know the pain
I wonder if my lord ever cries and flinch away
I think he is unaware, that why he took away you from me
And told me to let you go.
I shudder and wake up to find that it’s only a dream
Only to find you more troubled and soothing me.
You do understand that I love you?
And don’t ever think I am unhappy with you..
Baby I know I am gonna be with you forever
You just seem to fit in my puzzles
When you kiss me, I know you love me
Somehow you took the world from my shoulders.
I see today standing in front of this faraway ocean
Only to feel you holding me tightly from the back
This gentle breeze playing with my curls, and
This moonlight towering above us,
To make us cupids in this play called love.

Love Thy Life
When we were small we had dreams
As weird as they seemed
Stars seemed so bright and Cassiopeia made us smile
The first bike or unwrapping the presents made us blush a while
Optimistic we all were, cause falling was never a trouble
We used to race the moon and ride the nights,
Life shined as the Christmas lights.
Then came the love of my life,
Blew my heart and left me to die
Then love went and left, me and life alone
Christmas said 'goodbye” and 'Halloween' said 'hi'.
One day life went for a party met Trouble, Despair and Anxiety,
Got drunk a lot, and 'oh, my dear life ' was ruined badly
I remember we cried that whole night
And then my life said to me “you don't know how much I love you, and
, someday I'll change too.
I will kiss you, kick you and hold you tight.
. You may not feel my presence sometimes,
Because you may be in my arms, my lovely pride
But you will have to promise something to,
, that no matter what happens you will live me too.
You will get me the stars and reach for the sky,
With strength and endurance as your amours,
To save you from fright.
But if you ditched them they will leave your side
And then I asked my life, the truth that exist behind him,
, and he smiled and said “some people have said that life is good
And some quote 'to battle with life”,
Some cry and some get amused.
But I was never anybody's enemy,
I am a savior, I am a teacher, I am a pivotal.
You came newborn to every milestone of journey,
My journey, a life’s journey
Which are full of sorrows and hardship.
, but happiness too is one great feeling you have to fight for.
People say love life, but their is one thing about love that’s true,
When you love somebody you love his demons too,
You fight with the winds and u race the night
You die but with your head held high,
And you do all this just for love
So my dear baby have faith in me too
'' Love me like your lover, cherish me too
You once laid down your heart for a guy.
Take a chance and lay down your love for life too

My Best Friend
I called you ten times you were out of reach
Have you got any explanations for me?
I just got 3 $ in my mobile thought,
To ask you “how have you been piggy? ”
Conversation have been real fun,
It’s like hitting your head on the wall
Fiery heart and brutal talks and sometimes corky gossip of all
Most torturous and illusive female talks
“I think it’s a frog”, no it’s a tadpole
That’s what I mean, yeah in your dreams
I think he has a big one, no I think he has a small
But don’t they say, size does not matter at all
I cough, I vomit, I get sick and with tears in my eyes
I say what if this is the last day I will live
And she smiles and with a radiant shine on her face
She says “then leave your black dress and your earrings babes”.
She will take me out for lunch and will add carry your purse
I make some faces and ask her “why should I”,
“Oh come do as I say”, she drags my hand and sweeps me away
And like a puppy she gives me a look
And shifts a bill of 200$ and says “pay the bill fool”
Well we fight and most of the times
Swear ourselves right that till our death
We will not see each other face……..
Then you get a call and an order to open the door
And there she stands with two coffees in her hands.
And you know that everything will be all right
When I will need her most, like an angel she will make things right
If I have to define our friendship
Then I will say mutual stupidities and our madness
But if I have to define her, then,
She is my life, my soul and my BEST FRIEND

The Woman In Me
If you think I can’t do it, think again
I can look ugly but you don’t damm change
If I call myself a feminist, let that be
Shout for my rights and stand by me
If I am an hour late, let that be ok
But you better be on time, if you want me to stay
I can change my mind million times
But you better say “yeah baby, I like that way”
Love me still, even if I had a bad hair day
And call me thrice, telling me how you missed me today
Let me drive your car, without
Telling me “woman you are driving all wrong”
I can eat and lick my finger,
Without you telling how ashamed you are of it, by the way
If I cry don’t tell me I am wining
Cause baby I am a woman, and I am suppose to be that way
Don’t betray me to sleep with my friend
Don’t you dare tell me I am dull?
I happen to have stick for you
Whenever you need me in a way
Respect me and love me for who I am,
Not what you want me to be.
Don’t compare me with your ex-girlfriend
Cause I was born with different realities.
I was molded by God with very soft clay
So to be touched very softly and to be swayed
I was given heart of gold
And fervor of serpent
I got rotundity of moon,
And curves of creepers
I got the glances of deer’s
And timidity of harem.
I have got warm glow of fire
And coldness of snow
I was given by god, to be cherished
Not to be thrown.
I have got my heart set,
And if not interested leave today
You have 5 minutes to watch me leave
Cause I have to go long way.

Woman
Oh! Looks she walks and makes Angels shock
Her smile so kind, she makes this world divine
She shudders and twitches, you can’t move away in inches
She cries and makes you feel your whole world demise
Like a sunshine ray she falls on you, and,
You wonder if this world can be so true
She can win you back, and brandish with any unseen fact
She can even make god feel full of shame and tortured of all.
She was born with fortune of luck
She can break her heels and still usurp a throne in seconds
You will take out a sword and she will speak
And my dear friend you will loose a war and regret it in your dreams
Look around everywhere you turn, she goes
You can try to escape, but there is no place that she don’t know
She has a magic technique, when she sway she makes you weak
With those hungry eyes she will hold you down on your knees.
Listen to her, as she master the trait of reminiscence
You will walk ten mile and she will cross hundred
You will shout and she will whisper
She will walk in your room and make you go out of your own home,
When her lips meet yours, sweetest poison of all
She will lay you down and rock you forth
And then you will know how it feels to soar above the deep blue skies
Or to proudly walk down the fiery earth.
Man-eater, devil worshipper or witch is she called
Lady, madame and mademoiselle is she opted for
Mesmerized, shocked and hunger they leave the men
And in very simple words she is called woman.

You Are My Girl
“You are my girl”,
I remembered how you smiled and said
When I was afraid to step in a jet plane,
How many times we used to fight cause
I couldn't put your socks just right.
I loved watching u sleep and,
The way u said 'baby 1 more min please'.
I loved the faces u made
When every time I kissed your face.
But now that you have gone leaving me alone’
The moment I awake the same hope beginsThe hope for a call or a letterAnd even
though I still have several months to waitThere's always the miraculous hope of
hearing'Beautiful” I'm finally coming home'
Mornings are more tough cause
I hate to wake up without you,
My eyes begin to tear,
As I look at my soldiers faded jeans
And I just crave for your feel, I cry my heartout
I hope you know that I never meant to hurt you
Though I don’t wear stars on my shoulders,
But I am a soldier too.
I'm not the one who fires the weapon,
who puts my life on the line But my job is just as tough.
I'm the one that's left behind
Nobody knows the anxiety I choose
Everyday to turn into never ending day
And I pray hard to god to keep you safe,
Cause I am a soldiers girl and I wanna stay thatway
