What if ... ?

What if the sun was a little brighter
Spreading its warmth around
And grass a little greener
Lovely to eyes, lovely to ground

What if the man was not insane
Just a little more forbearance and pain
for those who have it not
the chance to play and enjoy the rain

What if there was no madness around
And everyone lived on his way with joy
What if the colors of rainbows surround
Like a child who plays and loves his toy

The world would have been a better place
Heaven and earth all the same
Why would we ever need to cry
on issues frivolous and lame

But for it had it not been the greed
Of everyone around who wants to eat
Others life and wealth and gifts
little knowing that tis own life that sifts

In doing so like sand in hand
And greed is a vicious trend
In which when caught ones life and soul
Forever is there, no solace, no goal

Life beyond is a wasted one
We run and run and run around
Hoping to get what all is there
But there is nothing, really so on ground

So my friends brace up yourselves
This world is a myth and nothing is forever
Comes the time, it will die
Eventually below the sky we'll lie

Hoping for the God to take us
And forgive us for the sins we spoke
We will fear death and chaos
For all the mighty rules, that we broke

My good Lord why has thou
Not given us the sense to learn
That the world is fake
Not even a thing our concern

We will be happy with love and joy
And smiles be there on every face
We live and love, our lives with fun
No fear of death, no disgrace

There will be grass, a little greener
There will be sun a little bright
There will be words a little sweeter
And music of the highest delight

All good will be there someday
That is of course a distant hope
But in good when you believe
All that is bad shall surely elope

Oh my God to you, ever I pray
Give me strength and love and solace
Do I must in whatever way
make this world a better place

The Change

That corner that day
Somewhere along that scary way

The one that is called life
The one that is so much trite

So much so that I lost who I am
And got sucked in, the heavy jam

The one that clogs ones heart and brain
And makes him one of the same

A common man on the road
He who visits everyday to the God's abode

In hope that sometime things will change
And this and that will be my range

I will have my little desires
When sun sets down and they spark the fire

Life will be over but not much grief
That I lived my full, not much a thief

That the life I lived was nothing great
But an impression I did create

On those whoever passed that way
Made slightly happy and gay

By the brief contact they had
Who touched my life, even when sad

That I brought them some tears of joy
Colors and fun and frolic ahoy

But of thousands dreams and hundred desires
Very few did I transpire

Just kept thinking when will arrive
The right the time to sharp the knife

And start with full speed ahead
When preps are done and inertia is dead

I waited and waited and kept delaying
What I should already have been saying

And then came in my life you called hope
There was a sudden burst of cheer and dope

I was flying on the seventh sky
Something I never did try

But all hope and love and life vanished soon
And I was left with a lonely doom

But still life is not much a pain
I am a common man trying some in vain

Someday I hope that I will succeed
With you or without today there is no need

But somewhere in my heart it does hurt
That I without you, you lovely bird

May be you don’t even exist as far as I know
And that is the difference for real, really so

And that does ease some pain
And life wont be boring same

That change has come I today decide
That I will be the change I want to drive

Wish me luck and Gods you pray
For I will never say

That I wanted you by my side
But still aint so bad without you as aide

This too as everything shall pass
And I wont repent the heavy loss

But rest assured may you never know
Rest assured that I ever show

- The change, by myself on a cold winter night this year when sleep was costly.

Inspired

It’s a lonely road
Perhaps even a dark one
Somewhere there is my abode
Image though is a clear none

But I will risk the walk
Mom you know for greater good
I may or may not talk
reason you know are understood

There is no second life to live
No alter path to take
This way or that I am not sure
But somehow I will certainly make

Mom you know when I was small
You told me that the world's a stage
We live our life, grow big and tall
Depending on what's our stake

I dreamed and dreamed of love and life
Of my chances, dull or bright
But the thought always was a deeper dive
Of a beautiful world that is still in sight

Some day I thought I will grab that chance
I will work hard, day in and out
Whatever happens no change of stance
Whatever happens no turn about

This day I have made the plan
Ready to work, ready to go
But what I seek from you, my clan
Stand beside, as I undergo

It will not be easy for the worlds not fair
There is pain and misery and sorrow
Get I might, not everything I dare
And there's a chance slim and narrow


But Mom, you know if you are there
Just your smile which transpires fear
Of failure, the biggest which none compare
I will know for sure, win is near


There is just one thing that I want to change
There is just one problem I need to solve
And then be done with my range
And all my sins absolved
