Sharing one of my poems I wrote on YourQuote, couple years back -
When someone asks
"Do you truly love me?"
Be honest,
Even if you only lust for them
Admit The truth
But Don't lie...
Even if you don't have no idea
About Love or Feelings
For that someone, at that very moment,
Just Say So...
But don't confess with a False "Yes",
For gains and pleasures and luxuries
The other can offer
Under your false pretence of Love
When someone cries
And lets out their sorrows
Placing fully their faith
In your portrayed integrity
Dont take advantage
Of their vulnerability
Dont point fingers later at them
At the secrets they shared
To get even in vindictiveness
Be grateful they opened up
Thinking you were worth confiding in
As a true friend
When someone asks for help,
In their times of dire need,
Help selflessly if you can,
If not, tell them clearly
Dont pretend you will do it
And take them for a ride
When someone goes out of the way
And stands for you
Against the world
Dont mistaken yourself
With baseless empty pride
That you are their weakness
Just because they loved you truly...
Be grateful they never used you
And belonged to a very rare tribe
Of Genuine True and Selfless Friends
Whom you meet
Through a beautiful rare stroke of luck
When someone is low and down
Dont sprinkle salt
On their existing painful wounds
Have the maturity to empathise
Try and heal them if you can
Or Just let them Be,
In their space, for that time
Atleast, just pray for them and bless
To heal and recover
From their miseries!
When someone goes through tough times,
Don't expect them
To know-it-all
To behave as per your imagined fantasies
Don't take things so personal
Know they are in an unpleasant space
And fighting their own battles within
Accept non-judgementally
Their best they could do
at that given pont in time
Give them the necessary space
To be healed
To be back
In best spirits they can be!
When someone is overwhelmed
And forgets a few trivial things
Don't accuse them of harsh adjectives
And belittle their precious souls
See the many good they possess
Recall beautiful times spent together
And their kind acts of selfless deeds
Learn to let-go of small trivial things
That hardly mean a thing
In this fleeting and ultra short
One blink of a lifetime!
When someone listens to you
Without any glitch or doubt
Don't try and manipulate
Every breath, every thought, every word
And every action of theirs
Imposing yours, forcefully on them
Coz soon, they will get suffocated
And leave you on your own!
So respect their opinions
Allow their individuality to bloom
And let them choose
A destiny of their own
When someone has surrendered
To you their precious heart
In return for nothing
Except pure friendship and love
Don't call them ugly names
That keep piercing their hearts
And make them regret
About ever crossing your paths
Unfortunately,
In their lifetime!
Rather if you can be,
Become a Selfless Guide
&
For many wounded hearts
Who pray upon
God & Angels
For THEIR
&
Intervention Divine !!!
