Revenge of the Fallen

Fallen on the ground ignored by the town,
No one hears its cries, as time passes by.

They provided solace when on the tree,
Rendered shade, gave new hope to those who seek.

Fallen on the ground, now seldom one stares by,
No one hears its cries, as time passes by.

They hide the path so people may notice,
Only to get crushed, without any regret.

Ignored by the very tree, whose beauty, once, they defined,
Now fallen on the ground it didn't even blink an eye.

Heart is boiling in anger, soul letting a cry of anguish,
Feeling of revenge conquering the mind, in these moments of pain.

They gave all they could, did everything right,
Still ignored when fallen, made their blood go dry.

United as one, they yelled their battle cries.
Revenge for the Fallen was the path they sought.

But amidst the roar, they saw a life being born,
Coming out of the very spot from where they had to fall.

Autumn may be on its way
For what seems to fall apart, might actually be falling in place.

Necessary it was for a larger cause,
For the tree won't fall and provide shade and hope to all.

So stay still when the going gets tough,
If life hasn't given up on you, you don't give up.

'Cause when the winds are blowing high,
Only fallen leaves have the power to touch the sky.

Toy Days

These things remind us of our golden days.

When planes could float in water and cars could fly in the sky.

Being stuck in a monotonous life, all we can do is look at them

And give a faint smile.

Missing the days when we were lords of our creation. 

Where Our dreams were big aims bigger than the sky.
