Jasjiv Singh Poems

I just came to know a girl
Who I’ve known all my life
I told her she’s like a pearl
That she’d make a great wife
...

I have seen this happen before
You win, I lose, you keep score
Never have you told the rules to me
Asking you is like inviting blasphemy
...

more wrinkles on this young face
more experiences added to the pile
another step taken toward the final end
the journey reduced by another mile
...

Just the other day I saw her at the mall
Dressed in red, boots and a shawl
Her hair seemed to be in a perfect mess
She tried to straighten them with her gentle caress
...

from the pages of history this land has a story to tell
the great rulers and the kings lived and ruled with pride
from the great mountain ranges to the beautiful rivers
every thing here is magnificent and every person a guide
...

Away tonite alone i cry
Seeding the thoughts which might
Help me tomorrow to see my sight
Without which i would surely die
...

there's so much pain in the world today
man out to take the other out of his way
he wanders from time to time to find his prey
he has grown in his killing way
...

He shines with beautiful glory
Over the vastness of the earth
He gives life to the lesser mortals
Tasting his luminous nectar since birth
...

don't go away leaving me in this state
don't go away like this meant nothing
don't go away because you promise to come back
don't go away for i'd never want to see again
...

He grows
To one's delight
He grows
To other's plight
...
