You do not merely want to be considered the best of the best. You want to be considered the only ones that do what you do.

All Things Considered

All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin just fine
Woke up this morning to the sound of you slammin' the door
I got served a piece of paper for breakfast that said
You don't live here no more
And the dog won't let me pet him, he just lays around
And growls at my feet
And the paper boy forgot me again
I should have stayed in bed asleep
All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine
Well my car broke down again right before it ran out of gas
Yeah my boss is still ringing in my head
One more time and your out on your... yeah
Well I can't wait till that five o'clock whistle blows
So I can sit in traffic all day
And end up going home alone
All things considered I'm doin just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine
All things considered I'm doin' just fine even though
You left a hole the size of Texas deep inside of my heart
The way I feel I should be losing my mind
But all things considered
I'm doin' just fine

Giving Up Should Be A Thought To Rid

Giving up should never be an option,
For anyone...
With more to be done.
Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

Giving up should never be an option,
For anyone...
With more to be done.
Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

People who've been spoiled haven't lived,
To know all there is...
About life.
To let it quickly fizzle into an abyss.
It's about risks!
That's what life is!

Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

People who've been spoiled haven't lived,
To know all there is...
About life.
Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

Giving up should never be an option,
For anyone...
With more to be done.
Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

People who've been spoiled haven't lived,
To know that living life is taking risks.
And...
Giving up should never be an option,
For anyone...
With more to be done.
Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

Giving up should never be considered.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.
Giving up should be a thought to rid.
Yes,
Giving up should be a thought to rid.

At every stage

At every stage and time we find traitors
They easily get backing with their mentors
Who thinks of security, nation or country?
When there is temptation for money?

Our head bows down in shame
No one appreciates it but only blame
When we come to know it by chance?
We condemn it in strong words at once

Bartering national interest is considered as treason
No amount of arguments can be accepted as valid reason
The mother land has to be considered above everything
It is not simple piece of land but above and all special and something

We can still consider some helpless situation
It may be compelled on individual with its continuation
The common sense may not come to his help to think otherwise
He may take such hasty steps which may not be considered wise

The murderers or trouble shooters can be dealt with harsh punishment
The economic offenders may be awarded with less confinement
Little crime here and there can be controlled with severe sentences
But what can be done with traitors to set the exemplary precedence

The death punishment to terrorist may make him hero in public eye
At slightest precondition, all the preventive steps may be given go bye
How helplessly we witness the deterioration in law and order?
Forget about daily skirmishes from neighbors on our borders

The fifth line disorder is known as enemy from within
You can fight external enemies and score a win
You are not aware of the threat existing inside
This threat perception is considered open and very wide

The national security is compromised for paltry some
This is causing great concern and considered as worrisome
We have not yet developed great sense of patriotism
Any peace loving citizen should be ashamed of such criticism

Enough damage is being done on this count
Later on lot of pressure is likely to mount
The matter may be discussed at every forum
There may prevail calm and everybody may keep mum

The national interest must be assigned with great importance
It can not be compromised at any level for an instance
It is not debatable and any breach of it must be dealt with severely
The ordinary function must be allowed to function very orderly

The great creators—the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors—stood alone against the men of their time. Every great new thought was opposed. Every great new invention was denounced. The first motor was considered foolish. The airplane was considered impossible. The power loom was considered vicious. Anesthesia was considered sinful. But the men of unborrowed vision went ahead. They fought, they suffered and they paid. But they won.

A matter in quesion

How does It matter if we are not blessed?
What concern is created if we are not traced?
What can be challenge if wall is not faced?
How speed can be measured if not raced?

Nothing matters than matter in question
No quick reaction if not brought to attention
No wonderful time if not enjoyed with pleasure
No use if no jewels stored in treasure

This is how we value our life in different context
Love in peaceful environment with secret text
Not to worry for what will happen next?
When life is lead in manner and considered as best

Whatever we do can be considered as duo act
There is nothing new but a simple fact
No one has to offer anything or to react
If our journey is on the right tract

I have seen people meddling in the affair
In no way it is considered as fair
Let willing souls meet in their own style
We need to watch and bless it for a while

It is gracious act if we recognize and submit
There can not be any reference to omit
It is after all emancipation from wrong feed
The life is to be given a chance to love and lead

I might have feared a lot from near quarter
It was not to be exchanged in barter
It was purely to be an emotional alignment
The glorious and indeed happy moment

I may live on without any support
It may matter less even if ship does not anchor at port
I may definitely want that it is given enough attention
Secret blessings with approval and and mention

An earnest move

Once we moved hand in hand
Vowed to live forever as a friend
Sun too graced our honest drive
Moon also blessed for long to survive

We prayed sun never to scorch
Even in noon heat not so much
We need not to go in for the search of shed
We needed his presence when actually wed

Who will not want bright light in a way?
To work very hand for promising day
Result may come not in desired pattern
It may be start of new life and happy u-turn

Luck would not have it and we have to depart
It was tragedy and considered it as integral part
Had we not wished a stable and durable journey?
Why bitterness couldn’t be removed by use of honey

Some where we erred for simple reasons
Suited as an ideal couple and very good persons
Hell was let loose on us in rainy season
We were bogged down and failed to learn lesson

We had earnest desire still failed to compromise
On every turn we longed to stand with all promises
It may still be the step considered to be wise
It might have proved a doom instead of rise

I wish to return to native place
I don’t believe in mad race
It is to be considered as simple case
There may be ups n down as temporary phase

Words can’t supplement the agony
Luxury can’t be brought by money
It is how we take and except the challenge
It is right to accept fact instead to for revenge

An error is fear

The fear of an error is already an error
If it is revealed at the end then it is fear
You may go into any depth and analyze
It can be had in maximum or crystallize

We don’t rule out any criticism
It is not called individualism
It is neither sarcastic or joke
It is meddling or unnecessary pokes

We can sum up what has been said
We can also judge what has been laid
We are not here for anything paid
It is not prepared or already made

When we set for the quest?
We try all out and go for best
It is critical time and real test
Nothing can be had if you cool down or rest

You should not feel hungry or be called mad
It may result in negative and you will be sad
If you are not sure of any result for things
You should not go for it or try at anything

Is it necessary to go all out for venture?
Can that shape out destiny or future?
Will we commit any mistake or error?
Can that not be seen in any mirror?

It can be judgmental miscalculation
It has got no relevance or direct relation
There is no doubt or any question
There is chance for no feed back but only retaliation

You may not be taken lightly when confronted on the issue
There may be constant watch and periodical reviews
Your actions may be takes with serious views
Not all may object but kindly taken by only few

It is human lapse and can’t be considered as such
It is miscalculation and should not be harped too much
It is to be forgiven once for all and discounted the fear
Not much stress is to be laid and no grudge to bear

The moment you have fear in mind
You may loose balance and can’t remain kind
Everything seems to be in doldrums and shaky
It should not be landed in mess and look tricky

Break silence

We failed to break silence
No one thought it can ever happen at once
It did take place and exposed bitternace
We were not looking at each and hiding face

She never argued at any point in past
This development took all of sudden and very fast
She was considered calm and cool
But I witnessed her to be forceful

All the time she was letting me off easily
As I thought over it and concluded readily
One must read human mind thoroughly
If failed in it then it shall be called simple folly

She may be right in her attitude
Every time male donation is considered to be rude
No one must underestimate her female partner
As she may not all the times surrender?

I was little arrogant and showed disrespect
She took it by heart and considered as hostile act
No one offers such behavior to better half
This was not a matter to be taken lightly and laugh it off

I realized at the same moment
That my act was fit to resent
Only it needed some initiate from my side
I must take her into confidence by surprise

I knew she will cool down like ice
Little love gesture was enough reason to suffice
I was sure she will not thrust more to spoil the relation
I could see the pain on her and that gave me enough of indication

"Bed tea for you" I woke her up in the morning
She was fast asleep and snoring
I was apologetic and showed it on face
She was little hesitant but believed in no more chase

I took her hand and promised no recurrence
It had taken all of sudden and by chance
She conceded to my point and relented
We were same again and consented

Center for study

India has remained as centre of study for the world
Where as many countries have blown hot and cold
Peace was never at their door steps leaving behind misery
Cordiality was never considered as reality and necessary

The country and its people are known by traditional values
Not by the way of loud speaking or projecting wrong views
But showing the courage and patience at the time of crisis
The culture stands as its hard core fabric and forms solid basis

It is very easy to bully small states by playing big brother’s role
Interfere in their internal affairs by unnecessary call
This is one kind of vengeance and shown towards helpless
Take full advantage of weakness and force them to abandon the race

In general, animosity is not at all welcome
It may be suiting to hardly counted or some people
Yet it cuts no ice and spoils the situation
It no condition it can be allowed with its continuation

On the other hand generosity is considered as noble gesture
It is considered as essential for stable relation or future
Humanity demands such steps as precondition for growth
Animosity must disappear from the scene and other aspect must come forth

Human nature is gifted with certain hostile aspects
It is interwoven in nature with all the respects
We feel jealousy merely on count of neighbor’s prosperity
We add fuel to faire to hide displeasure and inability

These are all virtual enemy of human race
It makes person blind and generates hatred in so many cases
Man becomes blood thirsty and runs for reprisals
Inflict personal Injuries which sometime costs fatal

We have never transported extremism to any countries
Taken full care not to imposed will and act as sentries
We have suffered a lot yet so far held the ground very well
Country is well knit and stands firm for many stories to tell

We are still facing the uncertain future with ugly scenes
Many innocents are subjected to and casualties have been
The peoples are misguided and hence give rise to animosity
This clearly demonstrates their defeat and inability

We have long roots of tolerance and are known as peaceful nation
Not only shown the courtesy and good will but maintained the relation
This has kept people prosperous and happy with progress
There is no ground to feel dejected if denied the access

Forgiveness

What is considered most important aspect?
To lead honorable but ordinary life with respect
At any point of given time you should be able to inspect
The self assessment device which guides you to act

This is not the commodity which is easily available
Emanation of pure thoughts reflect and are readable
This is what you give to others and expect in return
Same treatment, but if not, then no hostile turn

This is how one adapts and decides to move
May be it not possible then one has to undergo trauma and prove
Not all the times, points may be understood and realized
In the long run, its credibility is not on vane and materialized

You may have unkind reception with insult
So much pain at heart with no fruitful result
Don’t fail in your attempts to search and consult
Try to swallow the bitter pill but not find the fault

If you survive at this critical moment
Half battle is won with glorious event
Rival may think with sudden thought provoking
Accept your point or regret with little invoking

Hostile reaction in mind to the treatment meted
Scuffle resulting on the words commented
Emitting poison with deliberate intention
Leaves little room for reconciliation and prevention

Forgiveness has become joke of the day
It is considered to be weapon Found in the
The weak may opt and go for its implementation
the powerful may term it as tool for augmentation

The powerful army has failed to achieve it by confrontation
They have suffered the fate in turn or rotation
Nothing can be extracted from unwilling soul
You may detest and always smell foul

How do we act when emerge as victorious?
Do we look noble and reasonable or look furious?
All these has got greater bearing in long run
Things are sorted out with reason and not with fun

It has got its relevance even today
It can prove powerful weapon of the day
We must be reasonable and politely say
What is ultimate solution to find the way?

Joint family

Joint family culture now days not found
It was ideal and was placed very sound
It has made long full circle and round
Now it has disappeared and lost ground

Is it losing its original charm and magic?
They used to provide good humor and comic
There is no immediate solution and remedy
Family remains in tension without any comedy

The economic burden is taking heavy toll
Old people find it very difficult to stroll
Limited space and mobility makes them venerable
They feel neglected and lead the life miserable

How much trouble parents face for bringing their children?
Without kids their life seems sultry and barren
Parents still go for all out efforts to over come
All difficulties they bear with happy face and welcome

The phase is reversed with change of trend
Children grow up with so much to mend
They find it difficult to continue with old
Go for immediate change with old items to be sold

Overnights the parents have become unwanted
Their presence is not liked and unwarranted
They want to have their own world with freedom
They seemed to have run out of wisdom

It is irony of fact that we have run out of courtesy
How can we forget their efforts and majesty?
Do we confine our selves to feel only pity?
Is it the only way to face the situation or reality?

Old people are sometimes pushed to the wall
They are simply shunted from home or hall
Where to go and how to live is only concern?
They tend to forget that tomorrow will be their turn

We need to think in right prospective
Their plight should be considered as subjective
We are not inhuman or live in stage primitive
Deep concern should be made and efforts to revive

We must develop sound mechanism
It should be considered best humanism
Nothing can substitute for good gesture
They are not our past but best future

Love is Disease

I ran through a poem called” Love is disease”
I thought I would die without it and cease
How can life be without it even for single second?
May result in inhumanly life without sacred bond

I have successfully dialed many numbers
Not gained much but enrolled many members
No one objected any time that who was sender?
It was taken in good spirit and never considered as offender

It takes lots of time to know a person
You can’t change as per season
So many aspects are taken into consideration
Daily problems for persuasions with lots of explanation

Who can submit willingly for known hazards?
We are meant to look always forward
Sometimes self interest becomes secondary
As destiny and goals are considered necessary

Love is uniform even if you don’t know the language
Neither has it had something to do with the age
Nor to curb the wish and confine to the cage
It is generated within and finally finds place on page

You may write the verses in her praise
Even you may make desperate bid and chase
You are prepared to undergo any trials or face
The consequences which may arise out of race

I would not mention the cheap word
It is used by wrong chatters or the cowards
They may just use it for sensational talk
Forget at home and remember when go for walk

Love is indispensable and considered as tonic
It has valid reasons with some logic
Man is human animal and needs some companion
Something new comes out of strong bond and union

Most effective tools

It is high tension drama with lots of worries
When any new channels are in air with full of stories
Makes great impact when something special in head lines it carries
It is news almost in leading papers and in all the dailies

Now the dailies are with full news of scandals, robberies and murders
Some prominence might be shown at the shooting down of intruders
The suicidal attacks and bomb blasts are prime news for circulation
Welfare and other works find hardly mention or indication

Medias has always occupied highest position and is considered as mirror
Enough care is taken to report it precisely without any error
The sanctity of news report is maintained very strictly
It is weighed deeply and thought over before reported correctly

It is one of the powerful medium for reporting news
Its impartiality and credibility is expressed with views
Normally no dirty game is played so far as the news are concerned
But of late it has involved in the race where some dignitaries are cornered

It is nice to report about the gloomy side of the ailing society
It may be takes as awareness drive with some what news as variety
It has one of the strongest arms to report even what is not reported
We have seen the effectiveness of reports when even mighty is deported

Gone were the days when complete black out was to be imposed
It was taking enough of time even after trust was restored or reposed
Now with powerful print media and news, it has reached even remote
It has even proved powerful weapon to restore peace and also to promote

How effectively it can serve to the public interest?
What ingredient should be considered healthy or best?
This should be publicly debated and put to opinion
It can harm interest if resorted to as protesting union

So many disturbing news are now occupying prominent space
There is mad competition and even deadly and dangerous race
The news are reported only to highlight as first source to disclose
They have no interest whatsoever to take up the ordinary cause

We come across many shows which are nothing but gimmick
It involves nothing new but lack super talent and basic
They serve only limited interest with no broader prospective
Their activities may then be restricted and act as totally inactive

Since they are considered as one the most effective tools
It becomes their prerogative and goal not to act as fools
They may loose all the respect if confined to narrow interests
Nothing may come out from their reporting as extra ordinary or best

Oh, almighty

Oh almighty, O ruler of whole universe
I kept on smiling without tears
I heard the blessing coming through ears
Strengthening my belief for coming years

If individual’s perception is taken into account
Then there is lot more to think and count
I am gifted with precious body
Considered most lucky as not to have with anybody

You are always messiah for others
Even if not then try to become and offer
Able and very strong to counter any threat
Kind heart to meet good people and greet

Nice face with glittering eyes
Feeling unhappy with people’s anger and cries
Mind bogs down with human sufferings
Nothing is left with for handful offerings

The heaven is at your feet
Its impact is felt when you meet
The words and holiness spread across
When you raise hands and offer the rose

Flowers offer fragrance with magic spell
You need not to speak at length and tell
The heavenly bodies hang above
You are like star on earth and move

When divine light take refuge in body
It is illuminated with light and felt by everybody
The heaven is down and at your feet
The curses and plight go off when people come and meet

It is not the magic or any kind of hypnotism
It is not related to any faith or merely”ism”
It is powerful thrust generated by noble acts
The kind heart that resides in you as a matter of fact

You have suffered it and endured
You conquered it and not procured
You found the reasonable way to benefit the humanity
You made it known in side you there exists divinity

It would have been wrong on your part to assume it as God
It would have been called treachery or simple fraud
It was not the matter for deceiving others for own interest
It was to be used for complete world for the best

Shape and Body

Anything that has shape and body
It is governed by laws of science or philosophy
Some may put it as very simple
That is easy to understand without any trouble

Some of things fall under exception
Proven without any doubt and question
No gravity or any of laws are applicable
Life becomes beautiful, enjoyable and stable

It travels beyond any boundary
This is gift from God and is necessary
Some of the things are considered to be thoughtless
But they are there for sure and bring happiness on face

There is gravitational pull
It is explained in full
Whatever goes up in sky?
May fall on earth without any reason for why

But thoughts in human body are not governed by these principles
It does not fall under any category or disciplines
It may go far beyond the international boundary
It does not violate any norms and is considered as secondary

It is nice to feel at speedy journey
You may go very far without expenses or money
It has no restriction and can touch the human heart
This is considered as good method or art

Thoughts can gain shape later on
When the plan is followed on
The dream is materialized and comes true
As thoughts had made concrete way too

Any plan must have serious backing and thoughts
No wars are single handedly fought
It has powerful execution with some angle of thought
The desirous result is then definitely pulled and brought

Slavery or bondage

Is it not inhuman to keep person in bondage?
Can we escape it by merely saying it is practice since ages?
Is it blessings from God that you have been afforded chance?
Will it not be the gravest mistakes on your part and last chance?

It is sheer madness to keep human beings under chain
Why not allow them to mix with their brethren and remain?
Who would not be in position to read agony and plight in their eyes?
Will it be considered as prestigious position if you held many slaves?

It is product of sick mind coupled with total disregard to almighty
Whatever you do to keep somebody under yoke is simply a pity?
Is it a curse or shame to have birth in the form of human being?
Is it the prerogative of mighty, wealthy or powerful kings?

When I see in the eyes of animals they try to see in with hopes?
Neck has deep wounds and all flies just attack when they are tied in ropes
How can we see human beings kept under bonded position?
Is it blind faith, malign intent or racial composition?

We committed slavery on the basis or race, color and poverty
We considered them inferior or property from war booty
It was altogether jungle rule and misconception in mind
Considered it as status symbol with no parrerels to find

It is against natural law of justice and to be condemned
Voice should be raised and system should be damned
Where millions die for the want of food under slavery
How can we talk of justice or an act of bravery/

I wish to perish along with millions of unfortunate souls
They may not have an idea or feel the game of fouls
They may accept as mere destiny or simple fate
Luck may sometimes come to them very very late

Slavery mushrooms out of ignorance and poverty
They have always suffered under the power of mighty
They are made to suffer under the slavery yoke
It is not only inhuman but pretty and cruel joke

Men has always tried to undermine the authority of God
Tried to play under different games and committed fraud
It is not confined to one region, race or continent
It has to be curbed altogether with contentment

My head bows in shame for all those who still suffer
We may have different ideas to tackle and differ
Still it is shameless act and need not be faced
It is His will to spare all with honor and graced

Years in exile

I am back after years in exile
Barring few new things nothing has changed for while
Same way of living and same style with existence
All for the good and no where any pretence

Nice were those days when we had well past time
Those were childhood days and considered as very prime
Everything was enjoyed with abundance of love and affection
It was funny, idiotic and coupled with very rash action

Nice age to remember along with all old friends
We were all known and member of notorious bands
No one may dare to point out or complain at home
We will be given no thrashing but only welcome

We knew well that critical days were ahead
It will prove all crucial to sustain and lead
Childhood was passing off like snow
We were coming up at speed with tendency to grow

We were in exile in our own country
Subjugated by other countries and ruled by many
Forbidden to visit any place as guarded by sentry
We were considered as dangerous for any entry

We had planned to throw them out forcibly
It was known to us that they will pay it very dearly
We had never chosen bloody path and even thought it rarely
It was not good option might have not come up fairly

All kind of terror was let loose on public
They wanted to turn it more tragic
Braking up of moral for us was their logic
But we knew it well as what could be its basic

No country can be kept under heels for longer period
There may be chances of uprising to fill the void
Though some steps may be taken for casualties to avoid
Still it may be little harsh when plan is laid

The youngsters or youth are always considered as stumbling block
They may be well prepared for final assault with surprise attack
As the public sentiments run high and turn against enemy
The scene later on may prove to be suicidal and stormy

Whatever the case may be, we were picked as possible threat
We were forbidden to see each other or meet
We were virtually pushed into heavily defended barricade

Go On and Slam The Door

Huffin' with a puffin' isn't something that one plans on.
Nor is it considered as a wish that came and has gone.

You can throw a fit!
But how does that,
Benefit need?
Go on and slam the door!

Huffin' with a puffin' isn't something that one plans on.
Nor is it considered as a wish that came and has gone.
You can throw a fit!
But how does that,
Benefit need?

Go on and slam the door!
Its all been done before.
Your rudeness I'll ignore...
And your nasty snapping.

Go on and slam the door!
Its all been done before.
Your rudeness I'll ignore...
And your nasty snapping.

You can throw a fit!
