beautiful powerless morning
swirling trees in skies of grey
i was right there with you
heard every word
that you could never say

sometimes i watch the world unfold
and dream i'm the ink that lives in your skin
where does the illusion stop
where does the real begin

serene circumference of an endless night
trapped in a falling northern light
an icy wind knows your scent and sound
kisses dying seed in southern ground

beautiful powerless morning
swirling trees in sky of grey
you'll always be here with me
alive in every word
that I'll never say

ATHEIST PRAYER

Lets put our hands together and pray
That God or Gods do not exist.
I know they don’t!
And add all Devils on that list.

Who needs them?
What for?

Have not humanity made fools of us
For two thousand years and more?
Enslaved, tortured and kill their kind
On Gods and Devils names?
Let’s toss them out and pray…
That they stay out for good.

Who needs them?
What for?

If humanity is to gain some self respect
They must worship some of their kind instead
Scientists and sages, heroes of human kindness,
Mathematicians, philosophers and artists
And all the ones who made this world
A kinder place to live.

And throw the supernatural beliefs
Back into the dark ages!
Who needs them?
What for?

if you could do anything?

How would you live your life on a day to day basis? What would change and what would stay the same?

Just curious, trying to figure stuff out in my own head. Thanks for all genuine contributions.

Encircling you with hands created to create. Your fires burn a light year away.
Defying cowardly distance,
your warmth germinates in every fiber
as searing light penetrates my darkest hours.
Blinding me with clear visions,
hovering quietly above shores unknown. Gentle waters cool my parched feet. Crystalline sands wash away imperfections, and castle walls brace for high tide.
My silhouette appears around you and you swallow my colors as they bleed into yours. Each drop painting a forlorn reality seemingly impossible,
and unreal.
Tainting waking moments as solid matter dwindles in compare...

to my only sunshine.

I always feel british world politics are manulaptive and all thier acts and policies are made with the purpose so that they can have hold of what all they want to do.. They can make a Zero to Hero to anyone to gain and achieve what they want to achive..

Can you put think Gandhi as Non-viloance HERO could have been Zero.. I feel Britishers wanted to leave India unhurt and create a situtation by creating particition with hatred that even after they leave thier porpose of ruling country from outside can be fulfilled..

Freedom movement of Subhash, Bhagat Singh and Savarkar would have made them to pay a lot and would have left the United India today.. But all those are snubbed as part of thier word poltics..That is why all are made as part of bad history by them and people who are mentally slave even today..

NO...this is not a homework assignment for me. It is a question for you, to test your knowledge about a very important conference with three very important people:
