Belief Poems
Satellites Wrecked Dawn, Terlingua
by Alison Derick
In our favorite place,
there was a blanket of galaxies wrapped up in your kiss,

I was tracking satellites fading into the dawn as I watched you sleep -
breathing in waves like little sighs of skylight:
I loved what I saw inside you.
I loved each time I felt you.
I loved you, otherworldly.
Eased by the calming call of heavens - the angels told me to ‘let go - just give in....’

The True Winners
by Ololade Raji
Still astonished by the deceit for vanities
And surprised by the frivolities of assumed fortunes
Fortunes at the price of integrity and the cost of lives
Those who wants it all, may have all but in a twinkle, lose all
For us, we remain forlorn hitherto humble!
With notes of deceit, they bought things and time
Armed with their pernicious game without Your plans
Fervently painting with lacklustre hues, a pseudo picture of an assumed future
Yet with a sordid gloom, they expect a candescent glow

Straighten
by Yoko Fushigina
I was led to the edge by my fate:
No way back, there's no pass ahead.
But leaving your life as a shade
Isn't something you can just accept.
So I tightened my fists and held head up straight,
And made myself simple and clear.
If I were not on brink, I'd at least hesitate;
Just this once I had no time to fear.
As a rule in such context we strech our arms,

Behold
by Mahtab Bangalee
Behold; I have no fear of You
Though you are everywhere conspicuously,
though every single moment the whole universe
is not empty from Your High Excellency's presence
Behold; I have no fear of Your presence
though You are the omnipresent Almighty,
though You are a severe destroyer as well as creator,
though You are an Author of harsh punishment
as well as gracious merciful

Let the people speak…….
by Muskan Sharma
Let people speak
Let the people speak.
You just live your life
Do what you want to do,
Don't listen to such people
Who want to bring you down
Who want to break you
Who want to destroy you
Who want to bring you down
Who want to break your confidence

बोलने दे लोगों को
by Muskan Sharma
बोलने दे लोगों को
बोलने दे लोगों को ।
तू बस अपनी ज़िंदगी जी,
कर जो करना है तुझे,
ना सुन ऐसे लोगों की तू ,
जो तुझे गिराना चाहते हैं,
जो तुझे तुटता हुआ देखना चाहते हैं ,
जो तुझे ख़त्म करना चाहते हैं,
जो तेरा हौसला गिराना चाहते हैं,
जो तेरा आत्मविश्वास गिराना चाहते हैं,

Just wait!
by Muskan Sharma
Just wait!
Just wait!
Wait for the right moment,
Life is struggle
Never ending struggle,
As long as there is life,
Till then there is struggle.
You too will definitely get,
which will be yours.
Just wait,
