More in love!

In my pensive mood

I often wonder

Can I be more in love

Than I am today

I think not, but then

Everyday I feel that

My love keeps finding

Deep and deeper depths

High and Higher heights

And countless moments

Can it be love?

It feels like magic

It seems so surreal

Spellbound is what I feel

Or should I say entranced

Sometimes words fail

Sometimes worlds waltz

Lips are sealed

Tongue is tied

Can it be really that?

Can it be love?

Past, Present n’ Future

Sitting in my garden chair
Surrounded with little flowers

Breeze tenderly touching me

And lending a new feel

Brooding over the past

Thinking about wins and failures

About the people who walked out

About the things not done

Getting away with present
No time to stop and think

Just doing, doing and doing

Just what is necessary today!

Hoping for the future

Dreaming of new horizons

About my special someone

And how life changes

You and me

Like the feel of bare foot
On the wet grass,
Like the scent of mud
After that summer rain,

Like a hot cup of coffee
With sky crying its hundred tears,
Like an unknown flavor
Bringing in a new feel,

Like the aroma of wild jasmine
Which a breezy night bestows,
You bring in a new sensation
Engulfing me unawares.

With your hands holding mine
With your eyes holding mine
Let the time stop at this moment
With just you and me!

Sometimes

Sometimes I wish I can change my life

And mold it the way I fancy

Sometimes I love this life as it comes

Simply want to go on living

Sometimes I am simply stubborn

To accept my defeat

Sometimes I feel that I am losing it

And with that, the desire to live

Sometimes I feel alone in this world

And my heart cries out in pain

Sometimes, when all my tears dry out

I seek the meaning of living

And after so many sometimes, I try

To hide my pain in a dark corner of my heart

And then, my tears betray the pain

The more I try to control, they over flow!

Then comes those sometimes, I smile

To this world and love it with all my might

With nothing to mask my happiness

Of loving and being loved

Unnamed

My smile no longer belongs to you

My tears will no longer fall for you

If I smile, I smile for myself

If I cry, I cry for myself

Once this heart used to beat for you

Now it is mine and can’t beat for you

You can believe all you want to believe

Ignore my tears and pain it bears

Without looking inside my heart

How much it hurts and for whom it hurts

This world can hurt me and hate me;

Malign me and make me miserable;

Drive me to madness and poison all around

I will survive, if I have the wish to survive

Or I may be, decide it is enough

And enjoy the ride to another place

My Promise

I can’t promise you sun, moon and stars

But I promise to be there beside you

When the sun rises and descends

When moon and stars come out to revel

When darkness spreads and you cant see

When your smile turns to sighs

May be that’s all I can promise

‘Cause I have got only me to share with you

To hold your hand and fight your demons

To be the wind to blow the clouds away

To be the candle to show your way

To be with you till time ends…

Sometimes, I wish!

Sometimes I wish simple things

Like tearing away these masks

Which I wear so freely these days

To hide those tears and distress

Who are my constant companions,

Following me like my own shadow!

Can I just be myself for once?

Without needing to hide behind

The fixed smile which comes

And always available on standby?

Can I cry my heart out for once

Without feeling guilty about it,

Till all my tears are drained out

Along with all the heartaches?

Can I be that girl for once

Who beams her sunshine smile

To the world around

Just because she is glad today?

Another night

Another day paving the way

For night to reign

Fading away slowly

Never to return again

Stars shining in the sky

Moon playing hide n’ seek

With little fluffy clouds

Night started its realm

I waited for my lone star

Shining down on me

From that distant world

Winking its way to glory

I closed my eyes

To hold back my tears

Which waits for a reason

To start its flow so freely

Another night alone

In this lonesome world

Though you shine down

From worlds apart

Waiting for loneliness

Have you ever waited for loneliness?
The one which is as soft as a feather
Floating in the euphoric air
The one which is so high that
It can touch fiery glowing sun
Yet as lustful and ardent
Like forbidden love
As fragile as my mom’s china,
Which is kept with utmost care
As pliable as wet clay, waiting
To be molded by that potter
As boundless as green blue sea,
Which takes its color from your eyes
I’m waiting for that very own sensation
Which enthralls like first love,
And is supernal like a spiritual journey

People

People are not alike
Even if the colour of skin is same
Even if the colour of hair is same
And they speak in same language

People are not like trees
Though they look so different
Who gives its shade and fruits
To everyone alike…

Summer Rain

Your love is like summer rain
And it touches my heart so gently
Calming and soothing like a balm
Easing the daily hitches in life
It comes without invitation
When I least expect it
Creeping in like a dream,
Bringing such joy to my life.

It is raining again in torrents;
It is flooding all around;
Let me just savor this moment,
Get drenched in its magic
Soaking my body and soul
And foster and nurture it
Like I would, a newborn baby.

Yesterday, Today!

Yesterday you looked into my eyes
And said, “You are special”
I thought about it and told,
“I don’t think, I am special
But I want to be special for you”
You insisted, “You are special”

Today, I decided
To be special for you
But do I have anything to offer
Except a heart full of love
A friendship to last a lifetime
And a promise to be there
As long as you let me be!

The Real Image

A very old poem of mine... Searched it out from a really musty place in memories! This poem was written 14 years back based on a conversation with a dear friend, Leena! Thanks for being my friend!


I knew not that image of yours
Nor ever can see that face,
Which your mirror prefers to reflect,
Which does not resemble you
Nor know your pains nor longings
Which never shows you as "you"!

If you want to see the real you
Open your eyes and look into mine!
There, you see a face with all its passion
Which cries out at the slightest heed!
There you see an unmasked face
Reflecting all its aches, agonies,
Joys, trials and tribulations
Hiding behind that sunshine smile!
You will see the teardrops,
Your pillow absorbs and night blots!
You will see the beauty of a tearful face,
Which is striving to keep that smile

But my advice to you goes....
Remove your beautiful mask
And show the world, your real grace
Which no one can steal away from you!!!

Seasons

Yet another season moving by
Bringing in a new flavor
Winter giving way slowly, for summer
With summer sun blazing...

Remembering the times shared with you
The ups and downs!
Always having someone to run to...
Looking forward for your slow smile...

Times change and thoughts bring
Sadness into your mind.
Calming down your aching heart
Facing the change all alone...

Wishing for your happiness
No matter where you are
Wish someone cares for you
As much as I do

Hope the memories are not hurting you
The way it does for me
Hope the days are flying fast
Unlike mine....

Living a life without you
Still keeping faith in my love
Thinking of those frozen moments
Asking my heart, not to cry....

Sometimes...

Sometimes you can’t control the pain
It hurts so much that you don’t care anymore
Going on living seems like a favor to the world
You wish you can curl up go unfeeling
The tears that fall have no meaning
The heart that is breaking is beyond knowing
You wish you can fly to another land
Where pain and tears can’t touch you anymore

Judgement

A shower of tears, a trembling hand
A tongue tied in knots, and a pounding heart
Waits for the judgement, you may utter today
Sealing my fate, forever to this pain

Who is a saint? Who is a sinner?
And who is the judge and who has the right?
Why pass a judgment, when right and wrong
Are never so clear or bright as daylight

Still, I pass judgment upon myself
More severe than what world does
Still I can’t bear those words which you may utter
And break my heart into million pieces
