Your last chance, My last wish...

The endless night, the rains of the shed tears

Countless little memories all choke me up.

Snatching away the reason of my existence

Loitering around me, all tiny snapshots of smiles

Imbibing a familiar sweet ache amidst

The cacophony of all that which could never be.

Inside me I could feel the rush of the adrenaline

That reminded me of the butterflies in my stomach

Upon that first fluttering, meeting of our eyes.

The flipping of our heart beats on that first touch.

I could witness it all again on the infinite sky-

The same sky which had smiled at us once-now

Stands testimony to our changed paths...

The same sun upon which we swore,

Stands clouded by the darkness of my mind.

I forget the time when I last sat besides you

On your shoulders where my head rested once,

How I wish it was here today, just one last time

To soak it with my unending tears.

A final stroking of my hair with your gentle hands

And then my face turning cold in your arms,

My slow heartbeats ceasing finally, my presence

Besides you- your last chance-my last wish!

Don't be proud.. oh Death!!

DEATH a necessary end will come when it should

You can’t fight with it but can postpone it a bit

But that is only sometimes

But oh death! Don’t be proud..

When all will die and there’s no one alive

Then whom will you kill?

That day oh death! You’ll also have to die

Even though that day will arrive very late

Yet that day will come for sure

Then along with your baggage of pain and laughter

You’ll have to go away forever…

You are really funny, who loves to live

Them you call

Who hates to breathe, them you let stay here

What kind of philosophy is this oh death??

Do not forget

You are not greater than god.

He will take care of you.

You have no right to take away lives

Which god gave as a blessing.

So we are thankful to god that

Without his permission, you are powerless!

Yes, POWERLESS!

A Beautiful Presence...

Cheers to all the good times we had

Cheers to all the memories we shared.

So much more in the scrapbook of the past

And in the new world ahead of us...

Cheers to all the laughter & the crackling jokes

Cheers to the beauty of the sun that shown all this while..

Parting words never do come easily

So I struggle to jot the lines - all a blot on paper

Each moment - something fresh, something new

Even the silences taught things I never knew.

Its not a farewell song, nor a goodbye note....

Just to let you know..

Touched by your presence

A life did glow!

Cheers to you.........

DAWN OF END

Is this the beginning? Beginning of the end?

The once fresh leaves now seem to be withering.

The refreshing smile seems to have been replaced,

Taken its place is a scary scar.

Snatching away the reason of my existence

What good was to you if any?

Everything that once seemed to be pure and magical

All that remains of it are soulless whispers…

The past replays in front of me

Unlike then-they don’t bring a smile.

They just leave a pool of tears to be wiped away

And to remind me pain is all that is mine today…

Sunrises no more mean a new day

Just the beginning of an end!

Drastic was the change- the change that changed ‘you’ & ‘me’

Preparing for the pyre as begins the dawn of the end.

Hopeful waiting...

Tears in my eyes have dried up

They have been shed by now

There is no pain left because

It has become a part of me

It has numbed my heart.

My soul has stopped praying

Because the words seem less.

I have stopped walking on the path where you left me

That’s because the road has come to an end.

I have stopped dreaming as it just

Tempts me to be with you.

I have stopped looking into the sky as

It reminds me of the vast moments I spend without you.

They ask me why I am still standing at the end of the path

Its just my left over life

That still hopes that there will be another path

Somewhere hidden……

On which you might be waiting to clasp my hands

And hold on to it forever!

NEW MOON END

As the night of the new moon ends

there comes a sun shining so bright

which smooths all cracks, straightens all bends.

But only sorrow is- you remain out of my sight.

New moon night refuses to end for me

as i still keep waiting for thee.

The time when our hands would be entwined

then the light would come to my world.

The pain of untold memories rust my soul

I lie alone on a vast vast landscape

Aimless, beaten and without a goal

open-mouthed my wounds do gape.

Wish there was a moment of eternal peace

with you and me- the world just a haze!

Removing the blindfolds......

A beautiful serenade turned into a funeral choir

A story that became a mute memoir

Memories that left a chronic ache

All reminiscent things now seem to be fake.

The sunset from my balcony ignites the drowning sorrow

Brings back to the fore agony and a sad morrow

The gleaming stars remind me of those peaceful nights

which soon became witness to frightful sights.

As i draw the curtains and call it a day

All the words which i could never say

Become my blanket throughout the nite

Till i am awakened by the brightness of a new light... :)

FOR THE WORLD YOU MAYBE SOMEONE..BUT FOR SOMEONE YOU ARE THE WORLD....

......Where else does it apply better?

Hands stretched like the valley beneath

Mind as calm as the flowing wind

Your warmth that conquered the cold around

How it felt..Oh!Its beyond a definition.

The sky and the earth came together

The mountains and the grass sang

Their own pretty tunes in wonder

Upon seeing us happy and fulfilled.

It must have been my imagination

But the sun over my head did seem brighter

The air around me smelt sweeter

And your shadow made me secure..

It was a moment of pure bliss

Made sweeter by the nature of the earth

Before the lightning struck and rains started..

Oh it was like I lived my whole life in those moments.

And then you fell down from the cliff

Pushing me away from yourself

I struggled to reach your hands..

Oh !What happened to our moment??

The way you held my hands one last time

Your face wasn't clear because of my eyes filled with tears

The last rhythms of your heartbeats did match mine..

And the other lightning claimed me too!!
