“Should my breath
The cold winds freeze,
Too weary and numb
Should my heart cease..”
Unbroken
It hurts right now But it won’t hurt forever. To carry your broken heart within a broken body that can take no more; It can still be done. It still can, even though you’re hurting beyond measure. Tough times must come upon them; Those life seeks to toughen, beyond the ordinary. Aye! building upwards atop… Read More
What if this is all there is?
What if this, is all there is? What if this.. is as good as it gets? What if this is as far, you were meant to be; And everything that you ever dreamed about for the future, were memories; Being carried on from a past life. A past where, you had it all. A life… Read More
Majestic
A swan, Paddles away Furiously Beneath the surface. Just to stay Afloat. Nothing else. Yet you, Can only Percieve White floating grace; Ripples nor Sound. Flawless, Utopian elegance. And you, Can’t imagine Madness Behind the scenes; Hard at work. Persevering, Constant struggle. The facade Of perfection; Unstable. Control, no control; Infinite cycles, intersecting.. Culminating.. Every… Read More

Warrior Within
In the depths Of your deepest Darkest Most gruesome And Paralysing fears; Your True power Lies Waiting. Enslaved And chained; Hopeless, desolate And Weakened; By your lack of courage. © Jay Kaushal
I want to be remembered
I’m twenty seven and fading away; Fast, into oblivion. With each day, my years lose the promise they held all those years ago. Each day takes away from me the chance of an early fame. Each new day brings meaning to my life; And robs the meaning from all years past. I am at crossroads… Read More

The power of your dreams
You could lose, Everything; in a second. If you do, Would you still want, What you want right now? You could be wrong and lost, In the dark woods of confusion. If that happens, Would you still keep walking, This path you’ve chosen? You may sleep tonight And not wake up tomorrow. If you don’t,… Read More
You are a hawk
And A hawk, Will never Learn how to fly, strutting; around a barn, with Chickens! A hawk Must jump, From the cliff; Risking death, for flight!

Just Sing Along!
You need as often, As you consciously can: To exhale, As much as you inhale. To relax, As much as you toil. Be as blank, As much as you’re scribbled. And go about as crazy, As controlled; you try to be. Life isn’t a fight, It’s a song… And a song isn’t a song, Without… Read More
