English Poetry Text – Set 4 – 2017

You showed me the sea..though your depictionHer turbulent surface..chides my emotionsHer serene belly…recalls my intentionsThe setting sun…reminds me of lost timeFistful of sand…coerceing to let bygones beWave’s dance with winds…accentuates team-spiritSails at full mast…..suggests effeciency at peak

Your feeling is depressed… You always seem to be depressed and cry easily. You are a bit (ok, more than a bit) over emotional and are too sensitive. You rarely smile, and when you do, it’s very weak… your eyes always seem to be misty and though others have tried to console you of your sorrow in the past, no one can seem to get through to you that there’s more to life than being sad. No no one seems to hang around you anymore which makes you feel worse, and you feel as you’re loved by no one except maybe your family. People might see you as the ‘girl who doesn’t talk to anyone’, and you may be sort of a loner, but that doesn’t mean you want to be. What hurts you is people being mean and even though you might not get it that often, since you’re so sensitive it still makes you deal with pain. You’re not a leader and are usually the person who stands alone, does what she’s supposed to do and nothing else.

Like the small flowers of green thick hills With fragrance, did her words; bloom Wild yet passionate in love, are the tribal’s So was hers, for them and theirs Sad was her heart, at the jungle’s ruin Starved was her pen, of any words To the children, she lent a voice, therein To save the jungle, her poetry and birds While planting seeds, with hope they croon Cast your magic, of life, dearest monsoon As the clouds poured, and lent some life To life, the jungle sprang, and they all sang Like the mother herself, she nursed and cared Days later, the deers came smiling For lifetimes, shall the tribals sing, her praise Her story of life, her pen; still flowing.

In those moments of truthful silence With deepest desires, eyes filled Of passion, of treading the world hence Life seems still, as courage is instilled. . Unlike an obstacle, the waves really charm The salty breeze seems so hard to resist Will they hug me and set my mind at calm ? Or will I drift away, like the sand from my fist ? . Far ahead, I see a ship set sail As the birds make a ruckus, much like the waves From the sea, shall be born a great tale Else the road lies dark to long forgotten graves . The lonely wave grows really tall My thoughts they are, my life they make In drenched glory, I yearn to see it all Or is this just a mirage for my earthy sake ? . The ship moves afar as the sun sets to sleep In my blindness, do I see nature taunt? My legs in the sand, are down pretty deep Will I conquer the calm blue sea, and everything beyond ?

A true friend will not leave you hanging. A true friend will be there for you at all costs. A true friend will pray for you when times are bad. A true friend will do anything to avoid hurting your feelings. A true friend makes you feel good. A true friend has unconditional love. A true friend is worth more than all the gold in the world. A true friend is like an angel. A true friend is you!

i am sorry my tears Coz I have trapped you ,Whenever you wanted to flow I have always stopped you.I know inside for youIt is very suffocating ,But even if you flow Nothing you will be getting .You will flow And get vanished somewhere ,And till that time People will show that they do care .So better don’t expect Anybody’s sympathy ,You are trueYou don’t deserve false pity.I know you wanna come outTo make me feel relieved ,What you think ?Will this make my wounds get healed?Rather than youIts more painful for meMy dreams getting shatteredIs what everyday I see .Still I smileAnd pretend to be carefree ,But whats behind ?Nobody ever tried to see .Like a poison inside meStill I wanna you to hold ,Desperately I wanna breathBut my breaths have turned frozen and cold .Through my bodyLike blood you run ,Now you are my nightAnd the only sun .So don’t feel hurtedAnd never do leave my eyes ,A bond of love Ours relation is

Even if the candles fade away and winds of silence start blowin and rotten leaves start to embrace ur coffin and roses that lay by ur grave begin to wither petal after petal Even if the clouds passing by shed their tears in blind agony and even the stars that we used to see together that sparkeled our love begin to glimmer like as if they were never there even if the suns of happiness leave the evenings of ur heart and the autumns of death triumph the valleys of ur life and even the emptiness begins to fill up the air Even if u are gone to the world OF eternity Far off far away with every passing beat of my heart i will be by ur side my Love Always there for u to see the smile of urs in the heavens above !

We ride the wind togetherOur hearts have taken flightLove shows us both the wayTo soar into the night.Off into the distanceThere is only you and IWrapped in the arms of loveWe sail across the sky.Enraptured by the musicOf a soft romantic tuneWe fall in love a thousand timesBelow d brilliant moon.This could go on foreverWhat had only been dreamed ofYou and I togetherIn a world of love.The moon, the stars, the momentIn a love that none could severWrapped in the arms of love We ride the wind, forever.

Didn’t they say that I would make a mistake Didn’t they say you were gonna be trouble People told me you were too much to take I couldn’t see it, I didn’t want to know I let you in, and you let me down You messed me up and you turned my life around Left me feeling I had nowhere to go I was alone how was I to know that You would be there when I needed somebody You would be there the only one could help I had a picture of you in my mind Never knew it could be so wrong Why’d it take me so long just to find The friend that was there all along Who’d believe that after all we’ve been through I’d be able to put my trust in you Goes to show you can forgive and forget Looking back I have no regrets cos You would be there when I needed somebody You would be there the only one could help me I had a picture of you in my mind Never knew it could be so wrong Why’d it take me so long just to find The friend that was there all along You would be there when I needed somebody You would be there the only one could help me I had a picture of you in my mind Never knew it could be so wrong Why’d it take me so long just to find The friend that was there all along Had a picture of you in my mind Never knew it could be so wrong Why’d it take me so long just to find The friend that was there all along Had a picture of you in my mind, all along Never kne

It used to be life was one big dreamand the time we spent together got me through each dayThen my days grew dark and my dream faded away,cause now you are goneand once again I’m left all aloneYou broke my heart like no oneelse could ever do and you lied,still I had faith and I trusted youEven though now our lovehas came to an endI know in my heart that you’llpass and I’ll love again.

some say love it is a river,that drowns the tender reed.some say love it is a razor, that leaves ur soul to bleed.some say love it is a hunger,an endless aching need.BUT !!i say love it is a flower,n u r its only seed.

As I turn out the lightAnd look up the moonI put my hands togetherAnd pray that your okayI gaze across the skyAnd court the many starsAs I wonder what you are doingWonder where you areNo matter where I goI always see your faceI hear the sound of your voiceIn every single placeAlthough you’re far awayIn my heart you’ll always beIn my prayers you’ll always mentionedIn my dreams you’ll always seen….As i Look the stars above me,I wish you were somewhere

I had once thoughtthat maybe this was life.No love, no hate, no feelings.My deepest feelings would never be shared.I was so frightened;I didn’t know what to do.Scared of this one man all my life.Face my fear, I told myself!But it’s so hard, so confusing.Do you know what it’s liketo wonder in darkness?It never stops, never ends.It goes on like a story with no ending.Do you know how it feelsto be afraid of somethingthat you can’t do anything about?That you didn’t ask for or even think about?Do you know what it’s like? Do you know how it feels?It’s complete and pure emptiness!

an’t remember anythingCan’t tell if this is true or dreamDeep down inside I feel to screamThis terrible silence stops meNow that the war is through with meI’m waking up I can not seeThat there is not much left of meNothing is real but pain nowHold my breath as I wish for deathOh please god,wake meHold my breath as I wish for deathOh please god,wake meNow the world is gone I’m just oneOh god,help me hold my breath as I wish for deathOh please God help me
