Siska Gregory Dec 2016
Wanneer n mens jou gedagtes laat dwaal, oor die jarre laat verdwaal dan besef mens weereens die wonderwerke van mense.
Mense wat sterk is, sterker as wat ek is.
Mense wat wense laat waar word, soos in n storie lyn waar alle hartseer verdwyn.
Dan is daar n spesifieke mens wat ek die beste voor wens.
Wat my elke dag laat weet dat pyn mens nie kan terug hou van n lewe vol lewe en geluk nie.
n Ware punt van krag, wat regtig niks terug verwag behalwe die omgee en die liefde van n mens wat niks het om terug te gee behalwe n dankbare hart nie.
Jy is my beste maat, my nooit verlaat, my buddy en my sussie.
Ek is jou grootste fan dall. Beslis is jy alles en meer waarvoor ek kon wens en sal jou altyd lief he en trots wees op jou.  2016-04-16
To my best friend and sister... You mean the world to me
Peter Jan 2019
i'm walking down the street
bare feet, without a care
**** uber, metro, I hate public transportation,
i'm dirtying up this sidewalk, for a few years already
i'm writing down a will, in my mind, close to my eyelids,
because i'm on the wrong side of my mind
i feel sick, tasting the bitterness of humanity
when I wipe mankind on the side of the pavement,
at the very deep, there's masculinity mixed with *****,
i'm walking down a bridge full of empty shells
i pass hordes of girls who are smiling insincerely
and again, i feel a boost in my veins
and again, i'm louder than mirrors
and as in the mirrors, voidness space,
and it is me, who takes the best from it
i absorb this poisoned air.
In the ears of mine, i can hear electro heat,
i feel like one man one Jean-Michel Jarre,
rain is pouring through me, sticks to me like fog,
i wrap myself in the warmth of two MDMA's,
someone glances surreptitiously and steals my soul,
you have a backpack full of cash, i have a suitcase full of emotions,
i'm going on a journey through the cursed city
like a hermaphrodite with a broken rod,
streets, like stigmas, cry with hollow screams,
in front of clubs content abortions on the sidewalk,
let's leave this lie, like the walking dead
assertiveness and pride to the gutter washed away.
And again, this booster is kindling my veins
i'm dirtier than a new jerusalem
and similar to it, i'm sticking to everything
and so I'm taking the most out of my heart
and I absorb this poisoned air once again.
and so the booster flows through the aorta
it is flooding my tarred heart,
destination reached.
and my wallet is shimmering with bitter crystal
nothing will change the course of this chemistry,
betrayed. betrayed by their own bodies
vidi, no vici, veni on its own,
and i'm catching a laugh, standing still in the subway
i am still absorbing poisoned air.
hatred.
jealousy.
i've seen enough.
today, in my city, sun rises in the morning.
you will remember this day forever or forget it for eternity.
That is actually my favorite poem of all
Ankit Dubey May 2019
Jab bhi khush hota hu ye sochkar k kuch aur paas aye ** tum mere,
Kismat har baar tumhe aur door le jati hai....

Har baat yaad karne lag jaata hu jab bhi mai,
Teri majboriya mujhe kuch aur yad karne ko majboor karti hai.....

Tere pyar me tujhe sochkar hi tere aks ko choone ki jab jab koshish karta hu,
Har bar kismat mujhe khud k koi aur hone ka ehsas karati hai.....

Har jarre me jab teri tasveer najar aati hai,
Tab bhi na jaane ku aankhon se ojhal hone lagti **......

Bhoolkar bhi agar koshish karoo k ye ehsaas hi bahut hai k tum meri **,
Naa jaane ku tu un ehsaason me bhi kuch aisa kar jati hai,
k yaad rakhta hu tumko aur tu kuch aur door chali jaati hai.......

** gya hu adat se majbur fir bhi tumhe pyaar karta hu,
aur ye dillagi hai k har baar tumhe aur pyar krne ko majboor kar jati hai......

Greatest ever
Une brume couvrait l'horizon ; maintenant,
Voici le clair midi qui surgit rayonnant ;
Le brouillard se dissout en perles sur les branches,
Et brille, diamant, au collier des pervenches.
Le vent souffle à travers les arbres, sur les toits
Du hameau noir cachant ses chaumes dans les bois ;
Et l'on voit tressaillir, épars dans les ramées,
Le vague arrachement des tremblantes fumées ;
Un ruisseau court dans l'herbe, entre deux hauts talus,
Sous l'agitation des saules chevelus ;
Un orme, un hêtre, anciens du vallon, arbres frères
Qui se donnent la main des deux rives contraires,
Semblent, sous le ciel bleu, dire : « A la bonne foi ! »
L'oiseau chante son chant plein d'amour et d'effroi,
Et du frémissement des feuilles et des ailes
L'étang luit sous le vol des vertes demoiselles.
Un bouge est là, montrant dans la sauge et le thym
Un vieux saint souriant parmi des brocs d'étain,
Avec tant de rayons et de fleurs sur la berge,
Que c'est peut-être un temple ou peut-être une auberge.
Que notre bouche ait soif, ou que ce soit le coeur,
Gloire au Dieu bon qui tend la coupe au voyageur !
Nous entrons. « Qu'avez-vous ! - Des oeufs frais,
de l'eau fraîche. »
On croit voir l'humble toit effondré d'une crèche.
A la source du pré, qu'abrite un vert rideau,
Une enfant blonde alla remplir sa jarre d'eau,
Joyeuse et soulevant son jupon de futaine.
Pendant qu'elle plongeait sa cruche à la fontaine,
L'eau semblait admirer, gazouillant doucement,
Cette belle petite aux yeux de firmament.
Et moi, près du grand lit drapé de vieilles serges,
Pensif, je regardais un Christ battu de verges.
Eh ! qu'importe l'outrage aux martyrs éclatants,
Affront de tous les lieux, crachat de tous les temps,
Vaine clameur d'aveugle, éternelle huée
Où la foule toujours s'est follement ruée !

Plus ****, le vagabond flagellé devient Dieu.
Ce front noir et saignant semble fait de ciel bleu,
Et, dans l'ombre, éclairant palais, temple, masure,
Le crucifix blanchit et Jésus-Christ s'azure.
La foule un jour suivra vos pas ; allez, saignez,
Souffrez, penseurs, des pleurs de vos bourreaux baignés !
Le deuil sacre les saints, les sages, les génies ;
La tremblante auréole éclôt aux gémonies,
Et, sur ce vil marais, flotte, lueur du ciel,
Du cloaque de sang feu follet éternel.
Toujours au même but le même sort ramène :
Il est, au plus profond de notre histoire humaine,
Une sorte de gouffre, où viennent, tour à tour,
Tomber tous ceux qui sont de la vie et du jour,
Les bons, les purs, les grands, les divins, les célèbres,
Flambeaux échevelés au souffle des ténèbres ;
Là se sont engloutis les Dantes disparus,
Socrate, Scipion, Milton, Thomas Morus,
Eschyle, ayant aux mains des palmes frissonnantes.
Nuit d'où l'on voit sortir leurs mémoires planantes !
Car ils ne sont complets qu'après qu'ils sont déchus.
De l'exil d'Aristide, au bûcher de Jean Huss,
Le genre humain pensif - c'est ainsi que nous sommes -
Rêve ébloui devant l'abîme des grands hommes.
Ils sont, telle est la loi des hauts destins penchant,
Tes semblables, soleil ! leur gloire est leur couchant ;
Et, fier Niagara dont le flot gronde et lutte,
Tes pareils : ce qu'ils ont de plus beau, c'est leur chute.

Un de ceux qui liaient Jésus-Christ au poteau,
Et qui, sur son dos nu, jetaient un vil manteau,
Arracha de ce front tranquille une poignée
De cheveux qu'inondait la sueur résignée,
Et dit : « Je vais montrer à Caïphe cela ! »
Et, crispant son poing noir, cet homme s'en alla.
La nuit était venue et la rue était sombre ;
L'homme marchait ; soudain, il s'arrêta dans l'ombre,
Stupéfait, pâle, et comme en proie aux visions,
Frémissant ! - Il avait dans la main des rayons.

Forêt de Compiègne, juin 1837.
KV Srikanth Jan 2022
The chords of the piano
Reaching a crescendo
Reminds me of Maurice Jarre's theme
From Doctor Zhivago
Souls have merged
Thoughts and feelings submerged
In the Love filling the air
No need for despair
The trees and flowers
The one we are picking for each other
Both will pick the same
Nature of likes your theme
Adding it's splendor and esteem
Be together forever
Even death don't do you part
Never say goodbye cause you ain't apart
Backs to each other
Instruments increasing the tempo
Rhythm section providing the beats
Cue your hearts beating in synchrony
Creating a new symphony
If the bard had seen this image
He would have written a homage
Mozart would have scored the refrain

— The End —
