Second best

Don’t go for the second best
Its not worth the bargain
When it comes to give
Your heart, your soul your life.

Friends or lovers
Who make us feel second best,
Are they really our friends?
Are they worth wholehearted love?

Friends are the ones
Who see through us
And love the show
Hold on to us.

Lovers are those special ones
Who know us through and through
And love us, hold on to us after
Discovering us to our very core.

Vilest

Vilest 26.08.10
--------------------------------------------------

Oh we do hate another sometimes
For so many reasons
Treachery, jealousy or fury
Just to mention.

Vilest are those of us
Who get ready to avenge
But to reach their goal
They hide behind love, friendship.

They use trust to ruin
They use love to destroy
They give bad name
To love, faith and trust.

Are their actions forgiven?
I sincerely pray no!
I hope that God keeps
A special scoreboard for them.

Sweet words 14.05.2010
------------------------------------------------------

Sweet words in lips
Bitterness in heart
Hand stretched out
Faking handshake
Or a warm embrace
Or a tight clasp
In-fact to stab
Right in my back.

You leave me mystified
Not fooled any more
For your game was up
Even before your knew
Why do you flitter about?
Why do you fake as friend?
And then try to steal
My dignity, my hopes, my happiness?

Dignity

There is nothing wrong
In feeling dignified
No one has a right
To make you feel defied
Make you feel second best
Make you feel bad
Remember the golden truth
You are God’s child.

Don’t let any one browbeat you
Make you feel second best
If someone does
Just turn and walk away
Everyone can’t fight back
With a crooked ego or tongue
But we can put up a shield
Or create a healthy distance.

Fake friend

When I first met her
I was so surprised
How can such a creature
Exist in this cruel earth

So sweet, gentle, full of peace
How can she stay like this?
I was so overwhelmed
When she held my hand called me friend.

Then slowly the truth came out
A bitter pill coated with sugar
But not a life giving drug
It was bitter poison coated in sweet

She came to me to kill me
By her sweet disguise
But she only made my faith stronger
Only angels can be sweet as nectar.

Human beings react when abused,
angels and crooked souls don’t
one forgives and the other one
Waits for the chance to settle score.

God’s children

We all are God’s children
We were meant to walk tall.
No one has a right
To make you feel defied
Make you feel second best
Make you crawl.
Never let anyone
Play with your dignity.

Don’t let any one browbeat you
Make you feel second best
If someone does
Just turn and walk away
Everyone can’t fight back
Cant settle scores of insult
By sword or by merciless tongue
But we can always ignore a crook.

Protecting dignity

Don’t be sad if you can’t smile
When someone makes you feel bad
That’s nothing to be ashamed about
That’s called our dignity.

A feeling to be respected
By us and by others
If someone fails to do that
It’s quite a big failure.

Never make another soul
Feel bad without any reason
For life is too short
To be spent hurting each other.

Never let anyone else
Make you feel second best
If you cant defend your right
It’s alright to walk away.
