My heart skipped a beat...
Butterflies in my tummy… my heart skipped a beat
The smile on your face… made me unable to speak
The magic spell worked and I still can't explain
And now you are locked up inside my brain
The night that we chatted…and the message from you
Made me think and laugh, if men were true
I took my chances and sent you a reply
I found you so different… and that is why
You are all that I ever wanted in my man
An honest soul who would really understand
Me and you together…what a perfect match
I am now in love and so very attached
I am so glad that we crossed paths
It is destiny… and is meant to last
You make me so happy…I feel brand new
Let alone the losers…now that I have you

Stagflation
As history unfolds and memoirs you read
what have nations done to succeed?
Let alone the masses, take the elite
From politicians to the President, the life that they lead
Abundance of wealth, and the status they hold
From generations to generation, stories have been told
Now the question arises, in spite of all
Will the nation still suffer form its rise and fall?
Stagflation is the name for the price that we pay
Lets hope Obama will ensure better ways.
The key to success is implementation here
as quoted by Obama as 'Hope over Fear'
governing the nation, managing the mass
Lets hope Obama will do at last
Let once again be hopeful I say
It's 'Land of the Free' and 'Home of the Brave'.

A Roller Coaster Ride
Walk down to the streets of hell
A man so insane, and a story to tell
Call him bipolar or mentally insane
Why is it me to suffer the pain?
I've climbed the walls of insanity
And ridden the waves of despair
There is none to comfort and none to care...
I've locked up inside me how badly that bodes
Now I am just scared that one day I'll explode...
He's made my life so miserable, a rollar coaster ride
I feel scared of my existence and emotions that I hide...
Home seems like a prison, miles far away
Seven seas across I kneel and pray
Oh God! Please help me and ease my pain

Serendipity By Meena Mustafa
Serendipity By Meena Mustafa
It all starts from the seed that is sown
From the womb to this world, that we all have known
The journey of what is called Ups and Downs
Such is life until it turns around
When you least expect it and done with life
Serendipity strikes and takes you by surprise
This is what is called Luck by chance
The man of my dreams….with who I now dance
So never give up and hope for the best

Saahil kay kinare...(A poem written in URDU)
Meray dil ki dharkan mai sirf tum hi rehtay ho
Pyar tum he say karti hoon buss tum he meray ho
Wo betay dinoon ki yaaden aur badal ka garajna tha
Wo saahil kay kinarey kishty mai kesa milna tha
Leher-oon ki thephair aa kar jab kishty sey takrati thee
Daar ka mai teray seenay say kesay lag jati thee
Do praim-ee aik jaan chup chup kay miltay thay
Kahan geye wo din…kitnay achay lagtay thay
Seepiyan chuntay gana ghatay saahil kay kinaray hum
Aik ddo-jay kay pyar mai ho jatay te hum gum
Tujh mai samah kay mai ney pya do janam-oon ka pyar
Aab Kha-gaye wo din aur kha-geye wo raat
Barsaat kay mosam mai tery yaad sa-ta-tee hai
Betay dinoon ki yaad mujh ko tar-patee hai
Ab na rehe wo kishty aur bun kaya aik khawab
Saahil kay kinare mai akalie kar-ee-hoon aaj.

A hope to dream on.... by Meena Mustafa
Having fought many storms, made me wiser I know
Now I trust my instincts and go with the flow
Life is not a bed of roses … we walk on each day
Experience is the remedy, no matter what you say
Happiness is short lived…yet we all experience pain
Some play it well…yet some refrain
Everyone has a story linked to their past
So don't feel left out, if you don't have someone at last
It's better to be single with a hope to dream on…
Life has so much to offer before you are gone
Happiness doesn't have to come from others…
It's the way how you perceive life
It has to come from within you…
To make it just alright

Killer Whales
Come my friends give an ear to this tale
It's all about the ocean and the big black whales
They are humongous, and hardly seen
Unless you are submerged in a submarine
Their home is the ocean,
They swim to the depths
And can easily escape the fishermen nets
In books you must have read their tales,
They are sea monsters called Killer Whales
They use echolocation to communicate and hunt

The Teaser
What's it like being a bad girl
Skimpy dress and short curls
Painted face and high heels
OMG! She's such a tease!
Lacy thong...as she bends
Know now what, the man intends
Charms her with the odds and ends
So that he can be her friend.
From love to lust, he proceeds
Ultimate desire, his sexual needs
He begs her not to make him plead
Wants her to give him what he needs...
His body aches with deep desire
'Cause he knows she's hot like fire
It hurts so good...a pleasurable pain
This is what he wants to attain
It's all done now with a gasp of air
He lights the cigarette...she's not there.
Temptation's a killer when you want things to move along
He thinks he is a player but she controls the song

I Have Now Fallen In Love With You By Meena Mustafa
Stars shine bright telling me all about you
For I'm now falling in love with you
You stole my heart, and it now beats for you
I promise my love, to always love you
You are the one who ignited my soul
You are the one I just want to hold
My Darling, I'll always be there for you
For I am now falling in love with you
I close my eyes…and just dream of you
Holding hands together, walking the fields through
The Sun Shine's bright, telling me all about you
For I am now falling in love with you
You are the one ….My heart skips a beat
You are the one who makes me complete
Darling, I hope you know this is true
For I am now falling in love with you
I want to wake up in your arms… and gently kiss you
Cuddled up together…just me and you
The morning breeze tells me all about you
For I have now fallen in love with you.

A gypsy (fortune teller) by Meena Mustafa
A room I entered of fortune and dreams
A mystic world, now it seems
Hoping to find answers, I followed my heart
A gypsy woman to read my stars
She lay before me some scattered bones
And talked about ruins and magic stones
Then she gazed into the crystal ball
Getting some answers to her call
A vision of a dream, started to form
Shaping into reality as she performed
