I Have A Fear

~ Frank Solanki ~ 32 Comments

I have a fear

That things are going to end

That dreams will never be fulfilled

That plans will remain incomplete

I have a fear

That places will never be seen

That things will never be spoken

That relationships will never be mended

I have a fear

That potential will be wasted

That no mark will be left

That no good will be remembered

I have a fear

That there is an escape route

But no efforts will ever be put

That fate was accepted without toil

I have a fear

That Death will overtake

That Death will overcome

That Death will overrule

Game Over!

~ Frank Solanki ~ 17 Comments

The more I live, the more I believe

That we are all part of a videogame

That there are levels some of us may never reach

Hidden areas and secrets, unknown powers and potentials — things we may never know

That God holds the joystick and controls everything

That we are mere characters for amusement

And all we have is one life

I Hear The Clock Ticking Away

~ Frank Solanki ~ 11 Comments

I hear the clock there ticking away

Every night and every day

Every moment that passes me by

Brings me truth — I can’t deny

Inching closer to a big wall

With a door to allow us all

Entrance in the fire’s mouth

Where we’re all heading south

One by one they’ll call our name

The cruel Death and his dame

With laughter rising in the air

And fear sets the atmosphere

All these thoughts are scary, aren’t they?

The clock keeps ticking away

I guess my head just needs some sleep

To axe these thoughts — they’re buried deep

You Didn’t Want Me

~ Frank Solanki ~ 18 Comments

You wanted my money, honey

You wanted my fame, dame

You wanted everything that I had

But you didn’t want me

…

You wanted gifts and presents

Every expensive accessory

All the things that cash could buy

But you didn’t want me

…

You wanted love and care

But never showed any in return

Love could never be unfair

Love was supposed to be fun

…

Now I look back upon

The time we spent together

Wonder what a fool I

Had been all these years

…

You wanted everything that I could give

But not everything that I was

You didn’t want me

So I didn’t want you

Love You Never Attain

~ Frank Solanki ~ 20 Comments

Some love you may have to lose

Some love you may glad to gain

But the greatest love you’ll ever know

Is the love you never attain

Mundane

~ Frank Solanki ~ 27 Comments

Oh your love

In those fine summer days

How mundane it had felt

And yet today

In these cold winter chills

I miss your love like hell

I Still Believe

~ Frank Solanki ~ 27 Comments

I still believe

Everything I heard

Every soft whisper

Every spoken word

…

I still remember

Every promise made

Every time that I

Watched it fade

…

I still recall

Every memory

Precious and painful

Of you and me

…

I still love

Everything you do

Everything you are

Everything that’s you

I Ain’t Fit

~ Frank Solanki ~ 24 Comments

All the gifts

That you want—

I can’t afford to buy

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit to be your guy

…

A thousand flaws

You can find

In the blink of an eye

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit to be your guy

…

All the hurt

That I’ve brought

Have caused your eyes to cry

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit to be your guy

…

Your company

I will never

Be able to justify

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit to be your guy

…

You are right

When you say

“You might as well die.”

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit

I ain’t fit to be your guy

Will That Rain Ever Come Back?

~ Frank Solanki ~ 20 Comments

Will that rain ever come back

When you and I were together?

Will that rain ever come back?

That cursed, perfect weather?

Will that rain ever come back

When nature was at her best?

When you put your hand in my hand

And your head upon my chest?

Will that rain ever come back?

Those soft and gentle drops?

When time stood still for eternity

And the world was put to stops?

Will that rain ever come back

And clean me off my dirt?

Wash my sins and evil deeds

Wash away my pain and hurt?

Will that rain ever come back

When my world was just me and you?

Will that rain ever come back?

No, I don’t think so too

Abyss

~ Frank Solanki ~ 33 Comments

I lost my happiness

Lost my peace of mind

My appetite, my self-control

All was left behind

…

My self-respect was shattered

My ego was badly bruised

Innocence had gone missing

I was alone and confused

…

Darkness surrounded me except

For a little light from above

When I went diving, falling

Into the abyss called love

…

That light was all I needed

To help me dig a bit further

There I found a treasure chest

Belonging to no other

…

I opened the dusty treasure chest

And I was glad to find

My missing piece of happiness

My missing peace of mind

…

I also repaired my self-respect

My ego was at its best

Innocence was also retrieved

With the gems from the chest

…

Then I came to realise

That this bottomless pit

Is not as bad as it seems

If you do not quit
