Trying to Break Down an Unbreakable Wall

I was inside a cave,
With no sight of light,
And pitch black filled the space,
Against which I was trying to fight.

I have to break out,
of this shell of a cave,
With guts in my heart,
And me being brave.

I wasn't a caveman,
but was forced inside my lair,
Where i later came to be known as a monster,
And to enter my territory, they did not dare.

I was trying to break down an Unbreakable Wall,
That was once blocking my way,
It was a fight against my soul,
All i didnt know was, it was my day.

Then a ray of light entered,
The eternal realm of darkness,
And for the first time in my life,
I didnt feel absolutely helpless...

Bright Light

You're walking down the aisle,
Where you last found yourself.
It's a long way down to nothing,
Where the winds call themselves.

There's nothing to be seen,
In plain sight,
But I'm counting on that silky,
Bright Light,
There, On the Horizon...

Trying to find something to hold on to,
Something worth doing.
Because there is only a thin line between,
Something done, and something worth being.

...

So, I hope that you too have that Bright Light that keeps you going!

Beyond

You have got to live up to your name,
And go beyond the stereotype.
Hate the player, not the game,
And eat the fruit while it is still ripe.

Be the knight to the legends,
Let your Soul be free.
Be the right to the wrong,
When the others don't agree.

When the night is above,
And the Oracle has foreseen.
Do the dance when you are young,
And become what you need to be...

...

Now that i look up,
It's all I see.

Arrival

My train of thought has arrived,
On a horror-stricken demise.
What is it, this World we live in?
Will the bad things ever end?
Would every bad choice lead to the birth of a sin?
Will the whole World be ablle to comprehend?
That how precious a gemstone life is?
You need to succeed,
To get what you need.
And whole-heartedly believe
To achieve...

Fortune

You're lucky you're not blind,
Thus you can see,
What and how the World is,
So don't throw a fuss and see what you have and what can be!

...

We, Humans tend to forget sometimes how Fortunate we are...

Outer Space

No Wind or any sense of time,
We're moving at the Speed of Light,
Whistling sounds, I hear,
As Darkness masks my sight.

I look to my right,
And I see the Sun shine,
Then I look to my left,
And I see the moonlight sublime.

Into Outer Space,
The most Unknown Place,
Where, of anything, there is no trace,
It's the pinnacle of true disgrace.

I'm looking down at the world in envy,,
Looking at the world rotate,
Looking from up here,
From Heaven's Gate.

I don't know what I'm doing,
Just trying to keep up the faith,
I don't know where I'm going,
Want to believe, where i go next, is a better place...

Perspective

Humans think differently... The world wouldn't cease to co-exist without this thing called "perspective".

Give this a thought. If i say "clock", some might think of time, some might think of numbers 1 to 12, and some others. So, if people have different views on a small item as a clock, how is the world still moving? It is moving because of the different ideas. New ideas = revolution. This could be good and bad. good because of the birth of "Big Ideas". And bad because it leads to war. Now have a different perspective towards "perspective". It leads to different view-points which gives you international and civic wars. both minor and major.

Making Decisions. This is entirely based on perspective. What i think of making decisions is that one has to look from the angle of everybody concerned and then act upon it. This is also a good quality of a leader.

Now, think of judges. Just imagine what a tough time judges of different sports and events have. At times they have to be the bad people because they have to make the right choice. Sometimes, I really feel bad for an umpire when he makes a decision which no player or spectator likes and hate him for that. As Sunil Gavaskar, a famous cricketer said, "The spectators will always remember a bad decision made by an umpire  or a catch dropped by a fielder, but they will never remember the good decisions and the good catches..."

All I'm saying is, people think differently, so the next time you need to make a decsion, or you get into a fight, just think of what is written above.
