For light we search
On lies well dressed
For change we hunt
On lands well burnt
May moon shine
On dark long nights
May wind rhyme
My mind unkind
A kind heart hide
A goodness pine
A lone mind slide
More well curved lines
The goodness lies
In our heart inside
We find ties
We never try
-Jan @jahnavigouri
The shadows are growing
My heart is falling apart
The thrones are bruising
My time is passing fast
Loneliness is turning
My mind to sand
The sand is flying
I collect them in my hand
I draw with an ease
I seem to find
I somehow teased
The last second of my mind
I fastened my pace
The clouds are moving fast
I saw it in a daze
I got there at last
– Jan @jahnavigouri
Brown eyes hiding anger
One thought on my mind linger
Smiles hiding lies darker
My heart turned more blanker
Searching places for their name
Words making sounds all same
Time passing future lame
I paused and watched all his games
Eyes softer telling things kind
The short walk bruising my mind
Dropped the glasses made to find
Lies deeper we all hide
– Jan @jahnavigouri
The deserted house stood in a place
The girl lazily holding her gaze
The maid looked as it as if in a daze
Her plastered smile cracking in its place
The man moved and knocked at the door
His lips crumbled and his cloths all tore
The girl waited for the silver to pour
But the maid stopped them, her anger in toll
The girl screamed then her fear to grow
The man moved finding himself low
The maid only laughed and saw the road
The deserted house it only know

Smile to the trees
Smile to the sea
I smile to everything
I see around me
Smile to the leaves
Smile with the beats
Smile on your victory
From all the thieves
Smile is a gift
A gift to shift
Bad days to good days
And sadness will drift
Smile not to gain
But smile to regain
The happiness you lost
The smile is its cost
– Jan @jahnavigouri
Words spinning in my mind
I wrote them down every time
Thinking they would somehow rhyme
But they betrayed me most of the time
I waited for them to be more of a kind
But they always captured fully my mind
I dreaded when they went away for a while
But they returned like a promise of time
Reading my words always remind
Me of a time far left behind
In words I somehow always find
A refuge that is otherwise blind
I do love words that do not rhyme
I believe they hold a river of mind
Even though they are not of a same kind
I think words are part of everyone’s mind
– Jan @jahnavigouri
Sadness consoled
A heart so old
Happiness dissolved
a tale unknown
I walked quietly
feeling gold
But their looks told me
I am quite old
I kept eyes down
Feeling low
I hid tears now
Time you show
Tomorrow is better
Love unsold
Age don’t matter
Then the echoes told
– Jan @jahnavigouri
When you feel happy
Try to be more happy
So they try to make you unhappy
But you always smile more and more happy
– Jan @jahnavigouri
Maybe I will fail
But I will continue to sail
Even if I see no gain
I will try again
I may drown in pain
But I won’t cry in vain
I will fly and watch the rain
So I may keep my wail
I now don’t fear the fail
I know how it feels to gain
So I will keep trying again
And hope to see one day the rain
– Jan @jahnavigouri
I closed my eyes
Escaping pain
I closed my ears
Hiding I am afraid
I stitched up my sorrows
Leaving everything in vain
My fears made new burrows
My words forgot to remain
-Jan @jahnavigouri
