They are very fragile
when in the game of love they play.
In a mistaken moment,
a careless word and thought
can so easily injure
and break a loving heart.
Dreams of lingering happiness
can burst as easily as a balloon
if aspirations are thrown at them
in a moment of anger
and things are said but never meant.
Take refuge in the thoughts
that what is said in anger
is not really, what people mean to say.

and this is the situation of me.I live under one flag,but wish I lived under the other.For a while, I lived under the other flagand felt the world belong to me.Now I live under the one flagand everything seems to be taken from me.Those who inspire my lifelive under the other flag.While the ones whose…
a meeting taking placein a romantic rendezvous,falling in love with the most wonderful person of all.Going where our imagination takes usin our world of make believe.Journeying away from reality,lying on a sandy beachwhere the palm trees sway,watching the blue sparkling watersroll lazily to the shore.Feeling the finer things in life given to us in one…
just before the dawnto tantalize a dreaming mindbefore they are gone.Shadows of various sizesin abundant shapes beholdto awake distant thoughtswith their resilient charms.I sit alone in my silenceand watch them playbefore they fadeat the waking of the day.10 October 2009
