~Is It Right?~
I wake up and look out my window into the dark of night.
I live when everyone's asleep,
So that I am not blinded by the light.
In the morning at the sunrise,
I'll be in my bed.
Chasing the remnants of a dreamworld
Lost somewhere inside my head.
Is it right
That I don't dwell in the daylight?
Some would think that I'm dark,
But my life is what it is now.
So, I do my part.
While everyone else greets the sunshine,
I'll hide away.
Is it right
That some people are the nightcrawlers
Who never see the day?
I work so hard,
But I know that I'm headed nowhere right now.
I feel the pain inside.
I hide it behind a smile
That seems a litt
Fireflies
It's night time and a warm breeze
Kisses my cheek and whispers,
Do not worry.
The summer is not gone.
Then in the new year,
When I feel the cold right to my bones,
I'll remember the stars
That we danced among that night.
They dance and fly around us
Like a million twinkling stars,
And on this enchanted evening
Everything is ours.
It's night time in summer,
And the winter is so far away.
Remember that in dark times
The fireflies will light
Your way back to my heart.
Calm down you dizzy headed girl.
It looks like life is
Taking you for a whirl,
But don't get all worked up.
No, Just smile
Because you look pretty in your make up.
If you're not the center
Of Everyone's attention,
Don't forget that you
Always could mention
The incident you know about
And listen to them scream and shout.
How does it feel
To be the one that
Everyone sees as real?
To be the one that
Everybody loves
And to be treated with the kid gloves?
You think that everything is perfect
Because you're flying high.
Well, in the end
I hope that it was worth it.
Do you understand
Anything beyond your
Highly fashioned paper world?
I might not

Confession of a Weeping Heart
My heart weeps
For days now gone
When life went along
With a gentler song.
Days that now
Have faded in the mist-
I wander among the
Memories there.
I see your face
No more in the waking hours,
But in my dreams
The time is all ours.
My heart pines
For things that
Should have been said,
And days we should have met
To rest our weary minds.
My heart doesn't know
What it wants anymore.
I cannot call you up
To see how you are
For even if I had your number
No telephones can reach you
Where you are now.
So, my heart will just have to weep
Now that you're gone.

Refelctions on a Christmas Day
Reflections on a Christmas Day
There's no place like home
Wherever that may be
Because nothing warms your heart
When you have no place to belong.
When you look at the lights
Or when you shop at the stores,
Remember this Christmas
The best gifts are yours.
Your friends, your family,
And God up above-
All of them know you
And give you their love.
You have a heart that's big, kind, and true.
If you have nothing else,
You can give the gift of being you.
There's nothing in life
More important than love.
Not Forever Just Always by Shanti-Pyaar, literature

Not Forever Just Always
"Not Forever Just Always"
Street lights go by my tired eyes.
I wonder where all of the stars
Have gone these days.
The world seems covered in a haze.
We're so secure that we're afraid,
And day by day
We loose a little of ourselves
To fantasy.
I wonder if we'll ever be able
To cure ourselves of the fables
That seem to plague our lives
And leave us quietly crying in the night.
It's not forever
No, things change to often for that.
Besides we're never
Really sure if we're here or there,
And if anybody cares about us now.
The people rush around
Crying out for love inside
But pretending to be strong
As if there is nothing wro
"When"
The n'ere ending sorrows seem to flow
As if they were inside of me a fountain,
Which does often drown my quiet hours
With all that now remains.
In the still midnight hours of the day
All seems now so dark,
For all is now perfectly placed
For the desolation of one's soul.
Still in the dark a candle glows,
And though the light is dim
It cuts through the darkness
Imposing a ray of hope in desolation's
Grotesque face.
Light is shed more abundantly
As one by one the candles are lit,
And hope brings forth a new day of light
When darkness is dethroned.
My Eyes are heavy and I long for rest,
But I can't find a safe harbor.
I look around the empty nest,
And fly out to the arbour.
Restless wings and a broken soul-
Can anything ever make me whole?
Restless wings and a broken soul-
Can anyone remind me of my goal.
I just want to dream again
About the peaceful things that happend
When I was a young girl.
I just want release again,
So I can remember that
There might be some good in this world.
"Beauty"
A smile, the sunshine that warms my soul.
A touch, the grace that makes me whole.
The most beautiful things are not found in stores.
The most beautiful things are mine and yours.
"Life"
Freely given
Mostly misunderstood
Full of heartache and trials
Full of healing and good
To often taken for granted
To often misused and misspent
Can you give it once you take it?
Can you make a soul be whole?
You can do nothing about it,
ANd you live with a great hole.
Why not let him heal your burdens?
Why not rush into His arms?
Why not let God heal your heartaches
And help you find where you belong?
You feel there's nowhere to go.
You think that you're the only one
Who knows how you feel,
But there's one who knows your pain is real.
He's suffered more than you'll know,
His love for all the world to show.
Don't y

The clock tells me it's past midnight,
And I stare at it wondering why I should care.
Time is just another one of the deals that comes with life I suppose.
It's something that you can't change,
But boy does it ever change you.
The realization that time is both a blessing and a curse
Seems to spring into my thoughts.
A blessing, for the bad things will get better,
And a curse, for the good times will fade into the twilight
Where they become echoes of the past, dreams of a distant day
Nothing more than a moment in time that you can only reach through your memories.
Time is not a sad thing, nor is it happy.
It is just something that
~~Your Eyes Tell Me~~
The night falls and the stars shine.
There's something in the air tonight
Besides the moon, besides the stars
Besides the beating of your heart
That floats gently up to my ears.
I listen to it as you speak softly
About something I don't really hear.
It's not that i'm not listening to you.
It's not that I don't care,
But something about you
Causes me to forget everything
I knew, or should know.
Everything that should be known,
But I wonder if it maters at all.
Your eyes sparkle so sweetly,
And I giggle inside that you don't
Notice me looking you over so completely.
You're a work of art,

~I Miss You~
What is this emptiness in my heart?
I swore I wouldn't be like the others who pined for their lovers.
I swore that I wouldn't cry and moan.
Nay, I would be happy and go on as if nothing was wrong.
Yea, I swore it, but what is this feeling?
I seem to be trying to convince myself tht I am fine,
But with time I find myself more perplexd.
I don't feel you, and the more your gone the less I feel.
I fade softly into my room.
I don't want to go outside, for the sun shines too brightly
And it would only wound my fragile heart.
Be safe, my love.
Be safe, and please come home.
I miss you.

I once thought that~ A Free Verse Poem
I once thought that,
I was scared,
I was afraid,
Of myself for being,
So ambitious
For being so opinionated,
I once thought that,
I would become corrupted,
With humanity and,
My constant ideas,
For a better world,
I once thought that,
My influence would,
Become uncontrollable,
Too reckless,
Too spirited,
I once thought that,
I was too weak,
Too boring,
To live an interesting life,
I once thought that,
I wouldn't be able,
Too accomplish,
Everything I wanted too,
I lied,
I was so very confident

Hello Hello.
I am working on possibly getting a few things in order to make new deviations and posts. Also I am hoping to be able to update my profile with some poetry. I can't believe I have been here since 2006! My goodness.
It has been a long time since I checked in with people on this site. However, I am still amazingly alive and I have been writing. I should upload some new things on here, and if all goes well, I should upload them somtime in 2015. Peace Happy Holidays and Best Wishes!
