Spread Love. Not Hate. #PrayForNice


I beg thee,
Love.
I beg thee to Love and never stop
I beg thee to Love anything you do
and do everything with Love.
I beg thee to let your motives always be Love.
I beg thee to keep in check,
that deep down,
hiding behind any thought or act,
let there only be Love.
I beg thee, erase anything that erases Love
I beg thee,
because we are in dire need of Love.
Love for life,
your own and those of others
equally.
I beg thee to think twice
before you let even one spark of hate
danger someones fate.
I beg thee to have faith.
That we can be a better world
before it's too late.
I beg thee to spread love alone,
Never hate.

For You (In memory of those we lost on 11th July 2006)


For you, dear soul
who never grew old
for you, who deserved life 10-fold,
for you, who suffered pain,
for no fault aside preferring a train
for you who died in the company of many,
yet alone.
For you, millions mourn.
I will not let your memory go in vain
it was you, but it could have been any of us
any of us could have suffered that pain
While some play the blame game
I choose to whisper a prayer with your name
You are loved and missed
your blood run's through the city's veins.
May you who have passed on into the heavens
someday be reunited with your brethren
Your journey ended too soon, and so unexpected
but the memory of you will stay protected
In memory of a day that shook my city up
for you dear souls, I raise my cup

Infinite Moment


I had a life and death moment today
and in that split second,
in that tiny spec of a period in all of the world's time
I saw a hundred million things flash before my eyes.
I pictured my mother, and my family
and my extended family of friends.
I pictured the people who said "I'll see you tomorrow",
oblivious that today could have been an end
I spared a thought for my ol' best friend
And cried a little inside for the heart that won't mend.
I whispered a prayer for the people I owed apologies to,
and one for those I had meant to forgive.
I envisioned the 'I Love Yous' that remained unsaid,
the very same ones I often kept trapped in my head.
I pictured a future that would now, never be mine,
one where my soulmate would search for me, but never find.
I replayed the argument from last night,
wanting nothing more now than a smile and a hug tight.
I listened to the voice in my head
that reminded me of all the tears shed
I saw the ones I love and the once loved,
and the love that won
and among all the chaos of the faces I saw
I tried to hold on tight to everyone, good and flawed
and in that moment I prayed to be given just another chance
To complete the incomplete, to give all my love.
I heard that last beat before my heart would never beat again
I took that last breath before I'd never breathe again
and prayed no one else would have to leave the way I do
with words unsaid and feelings hidden too
this was it, I knew.
But I'm here. and I'm writing this
so that you know what you need to do
before that infinite moment meets you.
