Everything just fell apart and everything just fell away.. As bit by bit, I toiled away; building my dream. Heeding the call of a higher purpose; At first, it stuck.. to me Then I stuck to it. In the end, it is all that remained. And shall always.. Long after I’m gone and the flesh… Read More
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 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
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

Love, hate, longing, losing, discovering ourselves through each other… I’ve felt all this and not, at times; but then, again. I know all about these feelings. Yet all I know is that I keep falling in love.. with you, and then I keep getting back up, again. © Jay Kaushal If you liked this poem,… Read More

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

Criticism is an integral part of the growth of your ego. Criticism is like an acid which can hollow you from inside. Criticism is like a cancer which will kill your healthy tissues. Criticism can do absolutely nothing to you if you stop caring. Criticism can help you build better self expression just start listening.… Read More
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
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! Or Risk living; Dying in submission; Day after day, strutting Around a barn, with chickens! © Jay Kaushal Visit my YouTube channel on Life and Wellness: Jay Kaushal Life… Read More
