Nighttime Rain
It was beautiful.
I could feel it.
The release of heavens dew
on a night that couldn't come
early enough.
There was something about time
change.
The way the night felt more alive
than day.
There was something about rainfall,
how it forced the strain of life away.
It was easy.
It was calm.
It was still.
Skies of dark blue and drops of crystal.
It was how I imagined heaven.
A beauty that I could feel.

Them
It was true,
I loved them out of infatuation.
They were something to figure out.
A mystery,
yet, so very familiar.
A girls love for men is said to be seen
first, during the time when her brain is still in developmental stages.
When feelings are greater than thoughts.
It's crying for your Father as he walks through
the door, after your Mother has cared for you all day.
It's innocence.
Just wanting to feel the likeness in opposites.
A baby can feel the softness in strength.
She can feel the meekness in a confident heart.
She can feel the tender parts inside her Father that the world may not see.
Yes, it's true,
I loved them out of infatuation.
They were an enigma,
whenever I tried to understand them with my mind, I failed.
I knew that they were something to be understood by the heart.
I was infatuated with them because I could feel the tenderness that the world could not see.
I loved them out of infatuation because I knew that at the core of their feelings, they were similar to me.

I missed the bus
I think I missed the bus again,
but I waited.
I waited hopefully, intently,
I just knew that it was coming.
So many before me had taken
the same route.
They spoke of its reliability,
of their satisfaction.
It seemed that the bus knew
them personally.
It welcomed them,
always seeming to meet them
on time.
They spoke of waiting, but in
my waiting,
I never saw them there.
Maybe I was in the wrong spot;
I moved to another.
Maybe it came at earlier hours,
I shifted the alarm clock.
Maybe I was in the wrong season;
I checked back in June.
Maybe the problem was me,
I had the wrong rhythm;
I tried another tune.
Still, I waited.
As hopefully and
intently.
I knew the bus was coming.
I would make it there soon.

You gave me Unconditional Love
But I gave you conditional yes to Your calling
You gave me Life
But I choose death
You gave me Good
But I choose Evil
You gave me Freedom
But I choose Bondage
You gave me Wisdom
But I choose Foolishness
You gave me Light
But I choose Darkness to dwell
You gave me Heaven
But I choose the World
And there came a day
Where all my choices
Threw me into the Pit
Into Vanity
Into Confusion
Where all my illusions got burst
And put me infront of nude Reality
That broke my Heart
Covered me with guilt and condemnation
Left me barren
Where I couldn't forgive myself
Or accept myself for who I am
Even death got no solution for me
That moment when my soul was wandering
Of no meaning & no destiny
When it is weeping within it
At that moment I could hear a silent whisper of Yours
Saying that "My child I love you"
And your Destiny is in me
You've helped me find
The Fullness of Life
The Bliss of Life
The Perfect Happiness
Which you've kept within me....
How good You are!!
Above all the Heavens
God there's no one like You!!Sweta

An eternal love
Lies in unwavering depths
I willingly surrender.

STAN LEE
"We all wish we had superpowers. We all wish we could do more than we can do."
"With great power comes great responsibilty"
"There is only one who is all powerful, and his greatest weapon is love"
-Stan Lee. (1922 - 2018).
R.I.P. A legend Passed away at the age of 95. He created a universe, which is loved by many. He was loved by many. Respected by many. A man who brings joys into many people's lives.
My first reaction when I heard about the demise of Stan Lee was, “Is the news true?” Much to my regret, it turned out to be true. I just hoped he could have survived a bit longer. But it's just me being selfish.
I know it would happen sooner or later. Human life is short. But they say legends never die, they are immortal in the hearts of people. I just hope he could have witnessed people storming the theatre to watch the greatest part of his theatre.
Stan Lee created the universe which I love. Stan Lee was no ordinary person. He was and is still the main reason we are able to sit on our couch and watch our favorite superheroes exist on screen as well as on comic books.
Stan Lee created something big, bigger than him. He will never be forgotten. That’s for sure. But no one can deny the fact that we will miss his cameos.
Rest In Peace : Stanley Martin Lieber, born in
December 28, 1922. And passed away at November 12, 2018 (aged 95)

Woman of Destiny
She stands alone
Fire in her eyes
Power in her step
Serious and detrmined
Clothed in white brilliance
Violent winds of change
Tearing at her
She is unphased
Isolated in a dreary void
Consumed by a vision
Possessed with a sense of mission
Undaunted, unafraid
In hot pursuit of a future
Yet unknown

You think,
I am ok without you
But , the truth is
You are ok without me!

We make nations
When individuality
fades
And a community
is born
With the wings
of collectivity. -

The gleaming lights
of this unknown city
asked me one day,
Do I consider it my own?
Away from my motherland
Apart from my childhood
Does my heart throbs
with the same excitement when my senses
inhale the scent of the wet soil after the rain?
I fell silent
I grew quite
These thoughts rarely ever crossed my mind
Then! I realised
I no longer wander in thoughts
during long walks
I don’t allow the nights
to sing me lullabies
I don’t know what place this is
Inside my mind,
I call out my city
With a promise
To return
To lay on the ground
Close to my core
For one last peaceful sleep

Dancing, flying
Daring for chances
Darling, spin a romance
Death will break our tightrope.

Requittal
Must you repeat the questions strung,
From the beginning of ancient days?
A dead man you walk the steps of your life
Away from life and to your grave.
"If there was a God..." you say
"Then why does the world cry despair?
Why agony and torment and lies?
Why the curses in which we stand?"
But tell me as you continue down your road,
Is it God who cries despair?
Is it God who raises the sword?
Is it the agony of God,
The injustice of his will,
Or the torments of his sin
That stand before you?
He has never thrown a cage before you
And within free will granted
You built your own.
Your mind wrapped your body in chains,
Your heart darkened your soul
You master took your sight
And you pretended that it was good.
How long has it taken you to realize
That you have nothing?
That you have become despair
And agony
And darkness.
But even then, it is not your fault
For the Exalted never stopped
The payment of your flesh.
"If there was a God!" you shout to the wind.
If there was a God, you would be happy
In the midst of your anger
You would be praised,
In the midst of your mistakes,
You would be free,
Though you forged your own chains,
You would be blessed,
Though you curse as you pray.
But how could you ever see God?
When you believe that is what you've become...
