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... :)
