Westlife's new track Shadows from their new album 'Where We Are'. The song is written by Ryan Tedder ,OneRepublic's frontman. He has worked on hits in the past like 'Apologize' by OneRepublic, 'Bleeding Love' by Leona Lewis and 'Halo' by Beyonce. He co-wrote this song with AJ from the Backstreet Boys. So a maasive comeback by Westlife and a watch-out for the pop-industry.
My favourite songs...

Forgive and Forget

Learn to believe that this a very big word,Not matter what happens learn to forgive the world,
For no one is perfect,
Then who are you to not forgive and forget..
He might have hurt you a lot, so what,
You allowed him to hurt you, now that's your fault,
If you were a bit cautious before, it would have been much easier,
You allowed him to hurt you, now that's your fault,
If you were a bit cautious before, it would have been much easier,
For hurt you would have not got.
Learn to forgive, for you live life once,
And those who hurt you are hard to forget,
Then why don't you just forgive and forget,
For you know you will regret if you fail to forgive.
Relations are very difficult to handle,
But they are what you rely upon as you walk ahead,
Forgiveness is a very big word to handle,
Though one should mean it while he says it.
Forgive and forget for those who hurt you,
Are only those who are close to you,
So whose fault is it that they are close to you,
Some things cannot be explained so just learn to handle it and learn to forgive and forget.
And those who hurt you are hard to forget,

The Students Prayer

Don't impose on me what you know,
I want to explore the unknown
And be the source of my own discoveries.
Let the known be my liberation, not my slavery.
The world of your truth can be my limitation;
Your wisdom my negation.
Don't instruct me; lets walk together.
Let my richness begin where yours ends.
Show me so that I can stand
On your shoulders.
Reveal yourself so that I can be
Something different.
You believe that every human being
Can love and create.
I understand, then, your fear
When I ask you to live according to your wisdom.
You will not know who I am
By listening to yourself,
Don't instruct me; let me be.
Your failure is that I be identical to you.
Now, this poem is written by Umberto Maturana and I feel that there are two ways to look at what the poet is trying to convey. Primarily it can be interpreted as a student telling his teacher that he wants to explore the truth himself and does not want the teacher to impose his views on him, rather just guide him to the path of knowledge for it would be a failure on the part of the teacher if he expects the student to be his replica OR secondly, it can also be understood as a student telling god that he does not like it when rules and restrictions are imposed on him, he wants to be what he is, he wants to find out more truth about the world and asks god to reveal himself so that he can be something different.
Now some people might agree with me while some might disagree, but after reading this poem ten times I got the feeling this students prayer can be for his master (teacher) or the entire universe's master (god).

Very often we try to say many things,
But often we suppress ourselves for the fear of being wronged,
But how are we to know we are wrong?
If we don't speak our mind out.

It does not matter if you are wrong,
Think this way what if there were chances that you were right,
If just you had believed in yourself and spoken your way out,
You could have avoided a crisis with all your might.
Yes ! but do remember to think before you speak,
For sometimes your tone matters a lot,
Handle a situation with great care,
For you never know, when others may flare.
Both the extremes are not good,
Think but speak says the rule book,
How far you follow it is in your book,
But remember do not ever fear, about what others might say,
For its our life, lead it the way you find it bright and gay.
For those who live life, saying things to please others,
Remain slaves to the ideologies of others.
Speak your mind out, and fear non other,
Bur only one who is non other than the creator of you and others.
For he never differentiates between his children,
For him all are one and none different from the other.

The first time I stepped into this world,
I was crores afraid,
For the simple reason being,
That I dreaded the great.
For the first time after ten years, I had felt the other world,
What it would have in store for me was still and an unsolved crossword puzzle,
But soon after the weeks passed by, it became my world,
So far now that, it has become my entire world.
With various faces around me,
Which keep on changing as time revolves around me,
Once I stepped out to see the real world to be,
I could not stay far, so I came back to thee.
Seven years have passed now and I continue to feel,
Who would I have been , if not for thee ?
As I walk across the corridors,
I take pleasure in each time the bell goes,
For my ears they are like the morning dew from heaven,
Which will ever be, no more, as I reach towards the door.
The friends in the teachers we had gained,
During exams the cramps we gained,
The non stop chatting with my pals,
The silent stares during classes we shared.
Running down the stairs to make the most of every free hour,
And chewing the yummiest food by the hour,
Oh! I will always remember you,
For you have become my world for seven years at a stretch.
Now when it is time for me to walk outta these gates,
I tremble thinking about my fate,
But you have taught me how to face,
Every phase, in the right pace.
I owe you all that I am today,
You will remain in me, as I remember you day by day.

A tiny little house,Is all that I want,
Down the road, by the sea,
Where I would rise with the kiss of the sun and snooze with hug of the stars.
As I look out to the vast never ending sea,
I cease to admire the beauty of thee,
Why we are here ?
We are here to fear, not the mere,
But to hear all those near, to whom we are very dear.
No way those dear and near would leave us away,
So fear not and lead your way,
Don't forget them, as you tread the path to success,
Just because they are there and will be there forever.
Fail not in returning their affection,
For life is short and they deserve your attention.
This would be the last time .... ever

Walking down the memory lane,
I cherish those moments which made us insane,
You were the most beautiful thing to happen to me,
Though I wondered, how could you be ?
Poles apart were you and me,
Like fantasy and reality were we,
But still I treasure those wonderful times you gave me,
For I began to believe you were my fantasy.
Days passed by and so did years,
We parted ways, which felt so unreal,
But again we met god knows why,
To become closer as years went by.
Today, my world revolves around you I feel,
Although I know its no use to grieve,
For poles apart we are for sure,
And this has forever no cure.
For closeness brings nothing but drought,
As i walk in the desert of time,
I realised that you were the only ocean I had, as I had always believed,
You might change and flee, for this is reality,
But i would remain stranded always here, by the sea.

There was time when all was blue,
Then all of sudden, it was like a dream come true,
Small and tiny were her little pebble like, black shiny eyes,
Enough to challenge the dark night herself.
Fingers so tender that even a fly would fear treading on them,
An amazing creation of my god,
A gift so precious he had bestowed upon us.
The minute she looked at me through the piles of cloth she was wrapped into,
It was worth the wait, a whole eleven year long wait,
My kid sister had brought with her bundles of happiness,
She flaunted her joy too, every time she smiled at me saying, "Hey how was the wait?"
I could see her, saying sorry, sorry to have made you wait.
But I looked at her with pride in my gaze, being her elder sister was worth the wait,
Today she has grown to be half my height, but will still remain for ever my mentor for life.

Today it is or never,
Day by day I begin to shiver,
But I felt that I was up for this from when so ever,
Then why is it that I suddenly begin to quiver.
When I think about my family, the thought gets me thinking forever,
Am I to remain confused forever ?
It is I who is authorized to make decisions for myself,
But what if this creates a haze between me and my family and friends.
Take your pick, a voice screamed out in my head,
"Its you and only you, who has a choice over your life," my inbuilt voice crawled out aloud,
Life is lived once and only once, my brain began to bray,
And suddenly from no where I began to pray.
I want to dream and only dream, I seeked out to the one above,
And now after those many sleepless nights of pleas and anger ,
I find myself surprisingly shivering with pleasure,
For when dreams do come true, its hard to believe its true,
But dreams are after all dreams and if they can come true, remember that they can disappear in a second too.
So one thing, I learnt after my dream came true,
Dream only if you have the will to see them disappear one day,
For after all it was just a dream,
And it was never meant to be true.

When the dark clouds seemed never ending,
Seeming to adore me the most,
A ray of the sun stroked my face, making me alive with all the grace,
A saviour in white had spot me out,
From amongst the millions I had ever known about.
He lent me his hand to guide me out,
Offered me his shoulder, to fight it out,
It took me a while to fearlessly seek out,
For I felt I was no more in a doubt,
For he surely was my saviour, without a doubt.
Now I feel I can bravely look about,
For I know that he always there, some where around,
For me he has been an angel in disguise,
He has been one of a kind.
But I fear even today, with tears giving me away,
What if he is only a mere angel,
For angels are never there to stay,
They just come, play their role and fade away.
Not this time ! please don't go away,
If you are only an angel, then why did you come in my way ?

People say that your destiny rules you,I feel that you overpower you destiny,
Why take an easy way out and blame it on your destiny,
When you are the creator of your own folly.
The one above is the creator of all life ....true,
But it is you, who merely makes the choice of executing your own life,
Blaming all and the one above is an easy task,
For once face reality and learn to accept the creation of your own flaw.
If nothing at all, it would but make you feel an ounce lighter,
For self realization is the step towards a brighter future.

Life is never unfair,
Its all up to to you to bear,
For the truth lies everywhere,
But is not found always bare.
Its all up to to you to bear,
For the truth lies everywhere,
But is not found always bare.
Treading down the path of hope,
We often tend to droop,
To the never ending hopeless hopes,
Wishing that we could cope,
With thou gods creation of 'HOPE'.
