Jasjiv Singh Poems

In the shadows lurks the face
of the man, for years, on the run
He waits, breathes and watches
His eyes, more dangerous than a gun
...

Life's getting a little tough today
No more support along the way
Need to prove my worth to all
Need to balance and not trip and fall
...

far away the wind takes you beyond
to a place where my mind yearns to bond
with the rest of this being that i pretend to be
full of laughs, bundles of joy and stock of me
...

why do i still think of her despite all the pain she gave?
why do i long to be in her arms that smelt of hope?
why do i still believe that only with her i can be brave?
why do i hope to find her again, steal her and elope?
...

I’ve been doing this all my existence
I’ve been into this mess all my life
It’s been etched and is part of my subsistence
It’s been made onto me by a craver’s knife
...

i am so angry at myself
you can't imagine the frustration
i feel soo small just like an elf
but still i can't cross my limitations
...

What! You will make me stop writing?
I wish you could succeed in your effort
Oh! You want me to give you support?
Should I stop even when I am enjoying the fighting?
...

i just swallowed a dreaded mouthful
Of the forbidden air
It was part of his (the devil's) dare
I'm bound to feel scournful
...

together we go to a common place
unsure of our fates that lie ahead
we've been last in our every race
lost on every path we tried to tread
...

time passes slowly with every moment
he's got his end in his hands
he pauses so that his past he can lament
no use now, it's too late he understands
...
