Friday Nights

Friday nights
The nights I miss you most
Loneliness and thoughts of you
Stars shine so bright and true
Scent of night flowers engulfing me
Still my beloved not near me.
Missing you like never before
Our hopes…. and our dreams together
But you had to go away
To the land of peace
Where no worries will ever hurt you
Where there are no wants and dreams
Leaving me all alone
With my loneliness
Missing you like never before...

Girl in Cemetery

Alone in that desolate cemetery
Not a single soul around
Near the grave with a marble angel
Laden with a bunch of roses
Whose tombstone proclaimed
“He was a loving son and brother,
Now, up in Heaven to spread joy”
In the golden letters on white marble

She sat, head bend in silence
A single tear in her eyes
Glistening in the summer sun
Loosing count of passing time
Seconds turning to minutes and hours
Incognizant of the world around

What did she tell him wordlessly?
May be, how much she loved him
May be, how much she miss him
Or may be she questioned
Why he left her all alone?
Why can’t he come back?

Will this world ever want to know
What he was in this world
Other than being a son or brother
What did he meant to her
May be she asked God too
A few of her unanswered questions

Will the world see his wish
To share his world with her
To walk down that church aisle
With her beside him
Hand in hand n’ pride in eyes
To be her knight in shining armour
May be in another world
May be in another life!!

Save this moment

Count this moment, treasure this hour
And the days, we are together
Life brings erratic changes
Aftermath is so uncertain and hazy
Save this second, save this minute
This moment and everything it brings
Hold this close to your heart
Which keeps beating to mysterious rhythms
Or press them like a rose inside
Your book of scented memories
Where you scribble those little notes
And keep them forever and a day more.

Life

Things change
All on a sudden without waiting for you or me
And what remains
Is just a hand full of memories
Which you keep it near your heart
Or you prefer to forget
But still
You remember what you don't want
And forget
What you want to treasure
Strange is life and its ways
And strange is the way
It plays with our hopes
And dear dreams...

Thoughts on a rainy day

I sit here alone on this windowsill,
Watching the raindrops fall
And doing its tap dance
Like endless tears of sky above.
Heaven has let go of everything.
I know you’re all asking
“Why can’t you do the same –
Just let go and start new? ”

You will be happy
To see me smiling like before
Forgetting everything
That is killing me
Or should I just run away
But will you ever know
Or rather would want to know
My pain and my silent tears?
I am not some gallant hero;
I cannot fly, nor reach so high
I am on the plain ground,
and everyone’s in the sky.

May be you should go away,
Leaving me on the floor
Perhaps I’ll stop crying
If you just shut that last door.
You won’t know I’m lonely
And reaching for you,
When you walk away
Without another glance…
