Of Inner Thoughts


Cigarette smoke creeping in the air

towards his face, collects the essence

of his inner thoughts. Of time that

has been has only begun and then, the

life that time has almost forgotten...



And talk to him of pain for

he cannot feel anymore, talk

to him of fame for he never

has been there before, talk

to him of dreams and he'll

murmur the echoes of his past,

talk to him of honour and he is

happy being what he is!



Such frugal remarks decide the vicious

fangs of sorrow that love has offered

his promised tomorrow. As the fading

cigarette smoke sweeps away the essence

of his inner thoughts...

a song lyrics

I'm In


Love doesn't come with a contract

You give me this I gave you that

It's scary business

Your heart and soul is on the line

Baby why else would I be standing round here so tongue-tied



If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now

I would be the best d*mn poet

silver words out of my mouth

Well my words might not be magic

But they cut straight to the truth

So if you need a lover and a friend

Baby I'm in ... I'm in


Baby come on in the water's fine

I'll be right here you take your time

Just let me hold you and we'll both take that leap of faith

It's like I told you there's no guarantees when you feel this way

:p ..i think this is a song lyrics, someone send it to me, and i don't know the singer who sung this song.

 

Beautiful!

 

Chicken A-La-Carte
By: Ferdinand Dimadura

Let me tell their story
That no one else can hear
How can someone’s laughter
Bring me close to tears

And you’ll never know
Cause you’re never there
After what we’ve seen
Can we close our eyes again

Let me tell you their story
You won’t think its true
I have not forgotten
So I’m sharing it with you

For all the things we know
What have we really learned
Though I close my eyes
The images remains

And their story begins again

If that seems confusing to you then spend 15 minutes of your time to watch the attached short film.

Films: Chicken a la Carte by Ferdinand Dimadura

How can someone’s laughter
Bring me close to tears

I know some of you will cry as I did…….

 

Thanks!

the short film make my coffee cold as i didn't realised my tears was pouring on my cup
thanks a lot in sharing us this film Panday pera. It is good to be reminded from time to time how it is like to be hungry and still smilling and sharing and above all , keeping the faith.

 

Its a shame people are starving all over the world, especially when some countries and people have so much.. People in my country are very wasteful and throw away every day food that could probably feed so many. we have groups in my state that like to hunt and fish and we donate what we get to people who need it, its a very small thing to do but it helps someone in need. I wish it could be useful on a much more global scale.. But after watching the film, It makes me sad to see such hunger, But it also made me see more of the real human spirit when someone with so little can still smile,and be so thankful for scraps of food. the richest person in the world could not have such a sincere and happy smile. to truly be happy with what you have is a blessing.

Jerry.

 

to you my friend...

Everlasting

How long is everlasting
Can love pass the barriers
into infinity
can it last forever?
If I could look into the eternal
understand the mysteries
of the infinite
Know the endurance of love
the timelessness of devotion
What befalls our love
when the flesh is passed away
Does it follow the spirit
pursue us into the next domain
Or is it blown away with our flesh
decayed in the belly of the earth
The love of the highest kind
Rises like the Sun
but never sets,
it bears the arrows
of bitter persecution
endures the oppression
of an earth corrupt.
It is not proud
but determined
not arrogant
but sincere
It does not harm
but good.
A love like this is of the fabric
that binds the shroud of eternity
A flame that cannot be extinguished
for its' coals are the embers of infinity.
