When I didn't know what it's like
To be this destructive, beaten alive
When the torture seemed they've faded away
They've found you now, run astray
Is this really true?
Where have I lost myself
Find me, I'm alone
And the darkness seems so long
Its killing me now!
The tears of blood's spilt all ova the floor
I need to run now, there aint no door
Keep me from just stopping my brain
Help me from just going insane
Is this really true?
Where have I lost myself
Find me, I'm alone
And the darkness seems so long
Its killing me now!
Where did u go now?
You promised that you'd stay
You didn't tell me its too late
You just pushed me far away
And now I cant look back
I cant bring back the love
Its over you tell me
...and its killing me now!!
Is this really true?
Where have I lost myself
Find me, I'm alone
And the darkness seems so long
Its killing me now!
About Me
- Tempestuous Exhilaration
- For a long time, my friends have been asking me to start a blog! And for equally long..I've been pushing off the idea! Finally, now that I have created one, I am quite happy about this new step! I can only imagine the strength of this tool...to express...to hear....to be heard! You will find some of the poems I have written. Will come up with some articles/stories soon. Please do feel free to leave your comments/views. Cheers!

DREAM AWAY….
I’ve been moving all around
Doing just the things I should
Take a look around
This is the best I ever could
Even though I’m caught
In a time trap snare
I’m tied in a knot
Got no lose strings there
I know myself, I’m sure
There aint no second thought
But one feeling stays obscure
No matter how I fought
Indeed a funny thing to know
To find a love so true
Funny I say because, you know
I found this love for two!
One for the heart
One for forbidden territory
One’s the real part
The other one’s just a story
I talk to one, the other I meet
In my dreams at night
For hours at end, being discreet
We relish each other’s sight
The morning that wakes me up
To sounds of chirpy birds
Reminds me to give up
Dreams of romantic nerds
Let this work of fiction
Remain just what it’s to be
I’m a poet with no restriction
Who imagines a lot, you’ll agree!! :)

FAREWELL TO A FRIEND
Totally unexpected, out of the blue
When you lose someone close to you
It hurts, it pains, just goes to show
Life is so unexpected, you just never know
Its hard to believe, even seems like a joke
We laughed together, all the rules we broke
How can someone just be gone
Gone forever, to leave us forlorn
So many times they showed us the light of day
Gave you words when you had nothing to say
They defined friendship in its truest sense
Made you smile even when you were tense
You thought you knew the person too well
There might have been secrets, they never did tell
With sorrow deep inside, they never showed
Seems no mercy on them life bestowed
But whatever happens, happens for good
Life teaches you lessons the way it should
Nothing lasts forever, even people depart
Only the best ones remain forever in our heart
Amongst all the wishes to you we make
We pray O’Lord, their soul to take
To rest in peace wherever they are
For they’ll remain in our heart, no matter how far
When you lose someone close to you
It hurts, it pains, just goes to show
Life is so unexpected, you just never know
Its hard to believe, even seems like a joke
We laughed together, all the rules we broke
How can someone just be gone
Gone forever, to leave us forlorn
So many times they showed us the light of day
Gave you words when you had nothing to say
They defined friendship in its truest sense
Made you smile even when you were tense
You thought you knew the person too well
There might have been secrets, they never did tell
With sorrow deep inside, they never showed
Seems no mercy on them life bestowed
But whatever happens, happens for good
Life teaches you lessons the way it should
Nothing lasts forever, even people depart
Only the best ones remain forever in our heart
Amongst all the wishes to you we make
We pray O’Lord, their soul to take
To rest in peace wherever they are
For they’ll remain in our heart, no matter how far
Sing Sweet Lullaby
Sweet memories, distant dreams
So far away when they seem
Think of me and this lullaby
They'll put you to sleep, wont let you cry
Don’t be afraid baby
The future's uncertain maybe
But only if you try to see
Life isn't as bad as it seems to be
Pray a lil', work hard
Keep your self-respect at guard
For I'll always wish for you to know
So special your are, wont ever let you go
Don't be afraid baby
The future's uncertain maybe
When people leave you behind
Love makes you reach places hard to find
Just a line I'd like to add
Please baby don't ever be sad
Your happiness is what I live for
This river of our dreams will someday…meet the shore
So far away when they seem
Think of me and this lullaby
They'll put you to sleep, wont let you cry
Don’t be afraid baby
The future's uncertain maybe
But only if you try to see
Life isn't as bad as it seems to be
Pray a lil', work hard
Keep your self-respect at guard
For I'll always wish for you to know
So special your are, wont ever let you go
Don't be afraid baby
The future's uncertain maybe

Love makes you reach places hard to find
Just a line I'd like to add
Please baby don't ever be sad
Your happiness is what I live for
This river of our dreams will someday…meet the shore

THE LOVE THAT NEVER FAILS...
She gets angry, she gets wild
If I don’t tend her for awhile
She gets naughty when she’s loved
She’s like a prayer answered from up above
She drives me crazy with her tantrums
She reminds me to be calm
She slips out of hand, with time she runs
But she’s there with me dusk to dawn
She makes me meet new friends
Pushes me away from ones disliked
She’s not the one to follow trends
In her wisdom her beauty strikes
She is my friend, my teacher, my guide
I always cherish her with me
My feelings for her, no longer can I hide
I’m lucky just to be
She is LIFE, I’m in love with
Treat her with utmost care
She gives just one chance, don’t throw it
Take her lightly? You shouldn’t dare
Follow her heart, listen to her song
“If you love me, you’ll see just why...”
She’s been singing this all along,
“I know I look difficult, just give me a try...”
“I’ll be faithful, I’ll give you strength
Only if you promise you follow my path
Don’t be lazy, don’t repent
Don’t live on sad memories from the past”
“You were hurt by me, I had to let you know
The many times you cried
In troubled times I saw you grow
Even when your spirits seemed to have dried”
“I gave you hints to learn well
In every path you took
You turned a blind eye, I could tell
All you had to do was look"
“Now you know I’m nice to you
That ‘cos you learnt your worth
Be this way, happy and true
And stand strong even in dearth”
Now you know why I love her so
She’s the force, my drive
Reminds me that there’ll be ups and times low
But I’m so very lucky, I’m ALIVE
If I don’t tend her for awhile
She gets naughty when she’s loved
She’s like a prayer answered from up above
She drives me crazy with her tantrums
She reminds me to be calm
She slips out of hand, with time she runs
But she’s there with me dusk to dawn
She makes me meet new friends
Pushes me away from ones disliked
She’s not the one to follow trends
In her wisdom her beauty strikes
She is my friend, my teacher, my guide
I always cherish her with me
My feelings for her, no longer can I hide
I’m lucky just to be

Now you know why I love her so
She’s the force, my drive

But I’m so very lucky, I’m ALIVE
THE ESSENCE OF LIFE
FACE
Face bitter lies of the short and the tall
They say all's well that ends well
But the end never seems to come at all
LIVE
Live the world of make-believe
Of promises you thought would last
They've now become broken dreams that make you grieve
LOVE
Love someone you cannot hold
And learn to lose it all
With tears of pain and undying hopes, let the heart unfold
RELEASE
Release the wish for mortal love
And keep your faith for one
Of love that frees us all, that comes from up above
REMEMBER
Remember what hurt you more than ever
And made you lose yourself
For wounds may heal with time, but the cut stays forever
DREAM
Dream again of a better day
To stare straight into the sun
No trace of dark clouds or rain, no scary storms to stay
SING
Sing the song of the winds of glory
Blowing across the sea of life
That'd travel miles to newer horizons to tell your story
Face bitter lies of the short and the tall
They say all's well that ends well
But the end never seems to come at all
LIVE
Live the world of make-believe
Of promises you thought would last
They've now become broken dreams that make you grieve
LOVE
Love someone you cannot hold
And learn to lose it all
With tears of pain and undying hopes, let the heart unfold
RELEASE
Release the wish for mortal love
And keep your faith for one
Of love that frees us all, that comes from up above
REMEMBER
Remember what hurt you more than ever
And made you lose yourself
For wounds may heal with time, but the cut stays forever
DREAM
Dream again of a better day
To stare straight into the sun
No trace of dark clouds or rain, no scary storms to stay
SING
Sing the song of the winds of glory
Blowing across the sea of life
That'd travel miles to newer horizons to tell your story

In the Shadow of My Childhood
When life threw boulders
Over my shoulder
I smiled and I seared the wounds
When seasons of pain
Didn't end with the rain
I prayed for some music to groove
I had so much fun
Right under the sun
When the world was small, dreams were fair
Didn't have to belong
Just sing my own song
And I think just why did I grow up!
When silence now croons
Through heavy metal tunes
Makes me pass through the dead nights
I laugh at a joke
Smile at the weird bloke
Get hysterical in the middle of a fight
Disorder's in command
Peace is in remand
And I am the master of defeat
Try and convince
The old man's province
Then drown in the ocean of deceit
How happy and gay
Was every single day
When the world was small, dreams were fair
And now its all gone
My dreams are all torn
And I think just where did the years go away.....
The more I’ve seen
The more I’ve been
Faithful to lies and truth unknown
Why did I turn
Tough paths to learn
Life was simpler when I was a child.
Over my shoulder
I smiled and I seared the wounds

And I think just why did I grow up!
