Euphoric sadness in her!




Living in her own dark world,
where colors were none;
With words rather intense
n' her wine glass making sound much louder...


Her drawer full of memories had the same old stories...
of the passionate kisses;
of the secret embraces;
of the loud music;
n' the fast pace; real fast pace!


She waited to be conquered;
n' be won by just 'one'!
At the cost of losing herself,
forever...somewhere...
Where fears existed none.


Soon...
It started to pour in deserts.
Her desert-like heart!
But she wanted no fears, she had her own.


She could have surrendered, hearing
the words of his song.
That became her story...
N' he would serve her with sweetness.


But...
She chose to lie on the soil...
n' hear the planet's heart beating.
'cause she couldn't hear her own!


She was no unusual or atypical.
She was you! 
She was me!
Just he knew her a li'l more...


While she burnt the bridges,
she became conscious she had wings.
Nevertheless..
She was lost in myriads of dark shadows...
n' that was her only lovely world!

She started anew..!!




~This was her moment...to 'let go'!
To let go of the judgements...that 'weigh' her down!
That weighed her heart...more than a 'feather'!
The feather that lingered to fly...taking her away! ~

Happy Birthday to the first love of my life!




I sat down and wondered - 
If I knew who my first love was..?!...
N' an identical image appeared;
so blurred...like in a dream..!

I wiped my tears and wondered - 
If I knew who my confidant was..?!...
N' another identical image appeared;
still smoggy...as if holding for pie in the sky..!

I struggled seeking some answers and wondered - 
If I knew who my mentor was..?!...
N' another identical image appeared;
more shadowy...as if a beautiful silhouette..!

I got stuck after my first step and wondered - 
If I knew who my guardian angel was..?!...
N' yet another identical image appeared;
fully veiled...as if smiling like a rainbow..!

Soon...
Life started with clearer images...
Showing the worst of all the further phases!
BUT...the "identical image" remained;
by my side...calm and tranquil...

The image taught me to love...Pure as the air.
The image kissed my tears away...Soothing as the moon.
The image inspired me to never cease...True as the wind.
The image patted my back after failures...Bright as the sun.

The image is "Her"...
Someone I dedicate each jiffy of my life to...
She's the divine image of truth...ensuring,
That "each jiffy" is safe with her...
Yes! She's my lovely mother..!!!


P.S. : We love you momma!!!

Her reels spoke!!!



When the words expressed emotions only a few;
n' the passionate yell inside couldn't be silenced.
Yet he heard his sensitive inamorata's quietus; 
since...the melodies weaved such magic in that era.!

Veil of turning leaves..!




What do you imprison behind that veil..?
Oh! You enticing sultana..!
Is that a secret in the walls that enclose you?!
Break away...The world here awaits..!


What do possess behind that veil..?
Oh! You Goddess of gloom..!
Is that a dash of darkness that overwhelm you?!
Break through...The healing lights beg..!


What do you embrace behind that veil..?
Oh! You divine beatific image..!
Is that a memory that makes the line hard to walk?!
Break lose...Your runaway love knocks..!


What do you withhold behind that veil..?
Oh! You anxious mare..!
Is that a chorus of shivers that enchain your ankle?!
Break free...Even the quiet winds croon..!


What do you cherish behind that veil..?
Oh! Thee highborn royalty..!
Is that a playing reel of thy past life?!
Break apart...Cross that bridge...Life begins anew,today..!

Let's fly away..!



Such-Serene-Sundays make me wanna float away...
Somewhere..that I've only fantasized 'bout.!
Maybe you could come along...if only;
You can unravel what my eyes confess..!

Lovers love! World whopper..!





"Let's lie in the sand at the beach", she said.
"Why?"

"Because it's nicer."
"Maybe I'll admire the constellations, and you play with my hair, 
  like the lovers always do."
"That's doltish."

"Why's it doltish?"
"Because we've our own worlds."

"Should I kiss your fingertips then?"
"You can't."

"But why?"
"Because, the world will know."

"Know what?"
"About us."

"Why shouldn't they know?"
"It's fitter to be kept as a top-secret."

"Why?"
"So, no one can get us apart."

More than kisses, letters mingle souls!!!




Soon the unheard voices become alive;
stirring up that deep concealed emotion attached...
N' not all kisses are for real, my beloved!
Ergo, they had 'letters' then..!

A toast to their 25 years!!


Here's an amorous tale of a girl n' another;
whereby to start, I curiously wonder...
Strikes to me, those clear n' hazy flashbacks!
Perturbed?!! Whole caboodle you'll soon discover..!

She was a li'l lass, petrified of chaos;
by the clatter n' buzz in the classroom across...
Dashing ahead with trickling tears down her cheeks!
They spotted each other with similar deep pathos..!

That was the day when this story began;
of those two girls plotting a well-thought-out plan...
Shone the innocent faces with bright smiles!
N' they created their own cozy world in no-time span..!

Sharing those tiffins and the crazy secrets;
whispering in the library n' acting 'their' li'l playlets...
The fights, the cries, the love n' raucous laughters!
All completely worth claiming to be their favorites..!

Their worlds have now broadened, but does that matter?!!!
With the years progressing, the bond has only grown deeper...
Undoubtedly they have passed the rough patch of time!
Developing a worthier connection with feelings much gladder..!

In this beautiful maze called LIFE...



काश गर उन परिंदों में अपना भी एक वजूद होता...

तो छू लेते उचाईयां आसमां की,
तो समा जाते उस सर्द हवा की नमीं में,

तो मिल जाते खोये ख्वाब हमारे भी ,
तो कर लेते पार इच्छओं की सीमा भी,

तो शायद आस - पास ही मिल जाते तुम्हारे भी निशाँ; 
तो जी लेते ज़िन्दगी, ये तश्नगी ज़िन्दगी!!!

Whither wander you..?!!





Since, to travel is more captivating than to arrive...
For the thrill it offers down the boulevard!

Since, to travel is more enchanting than to arrive...
 For the beauties you discover before entering the aisle!
 
Because, to travel means no definite terminal...
There's beginning, there's middle n' there's untold ends!

Since, to travel is more ecstatic that to arrive...
For the sanguine hopes it seem to mount!

Since, to travel is more vivacious than to arrive...
For the clandestineness that gives you butterflies!

Because, to travel is for travel's sake!
It's the journeying! N' just going any place!!

Since, to travel is more dreamy than to arrive...
For the liberty to fantasize is given a green light!

Since, to travel is more vital than to arrive...
For the bumps teach you to gallop better!

Because, to travel through the right path will matter the most...
N' the midway stumbles, falls, friendships will give you the highest highs!

Could you deny these butterflies??!!!



Walking through these empty streets,
my heart heedlessly starts to cease..!
My breathless expectations still alive;
Make a comeback beloved! Await my yearning eyes!!!


I miss that scent of your skin,
as the windows clatter letting the faint breeze in..!
I sniff around longingly;
Make a comeback my dearie! There's deep lonesomeness herein!!!


I crave the rhythm of your soul,
this restlessness is on a roll..!
There's no other sound to gladden me;
Make a comeback my love! Before I lose control!!!


I wanna be drowning in your sweetest voice,
bittersweet passion in it would make me rejoice..!
I'm frantic that my world's gone mute;
Make a comeback my hon! Let's cause some noise!!!


A dash of smile recalling the flying kisses,
never did I linger so long for it in ages..!
No! I won't get distracted by the blink of your lashes;
Make a come back my heartthrob!I'm so torn in pieces!!!

As I, tonight, close my eyes...
I would build castles in the air and fantasize..!
Because there's fall and there's still hope;
yet if nothing ever changed, would there be butterflies..??!!!

Princess of Despair .!.!!




Here's a tale from horse-and-buggy days!
Amid the hazy crimson entourage;
underneath amethyst n' aquamarine skies...
Far afield was a jeweled castle, as if in Victorian age.!.!


There lived a dainty little princess;
Forevermore doleful in her elephantine silver cage...
Hold on! This could be one of your life chronicles,
n' not just another long-buried anecdotage.!.!


The princess was in pursuit of something;
wind-blown n' spent, musing along all day...
Untangling her messy golden tresses;
mirrored her world full of shades all grey.!.!


The crybaby was chasing the other perfect song!
Having suffered a strange quirk of fate;
fallen between cracks, coping with limerance...
Such disdain n' animosity how could she tolerate.!.!


In a fleeting moment of one restless day;
she rescues herself from her crown with solitaire...
To mourn over her lifelong wounds,
she evolved into the Princess of Despair!!!!!

Broken and remade!!!




Yearning for brokenness...
Lusting for brokenness...
Pining for brokenness...
Because brokenness is what you envision in me!!!
I'm puzzled if its only your delusion;
just when bitterness hits n' moments sadden.!.!

Seize my heart and weld it...
Seize my soul and transmute it...
Seize my voice and attune it...
Because seizing is the last vestige!!!
I can hear the melody outpour;
brimming with passion so vehement.!.!

Since truth is in betrayal...
Since truth is in deception...
Since truth is in fake...
Truth is a beauteous fib!!!
Am I hallucinating o' even my existence is true??!!!
Living in a cloudland just like everyone of you.!.!

The best dressed lie!!!



Promenading by the seaside
observing a ship sailing with the tide;
That composure which it maintains
induces a feeling in me I so disdain;
Suppressing it trying to chide,
all I wanna know is why you lied...


Meandering through the farmlands
as cool breeze ruffles up my hair strands;
Those pretty butterflies n' that aimless continuance
create a magnetic aura of influence;
Defying the emotion still tongue-tied,
I crave stronger to know why you lied...


Walking up the hill at night
staring at the stars zinc white;
The fireflies flaunting of their innocence
yet again that feeling and its omnipresence;
Oh! What an odyssey its been, Jekyll n' Hyde,
I'm hit like a ton of bricks since you lied!!!
