Learnings' I earned

It is like I kept trying

For a happy end

I fell down ones 

and twice, 

then thrice

Found.....difficult to get up in the end!

I again tried

Coz I thought it was not the end

But I fooled myself

As, something that never began

Cannot have an end.

***

So I know how much it takes

to dream; And

shatter them……yourself!

But more importantly I realized

Life gifts you

With pleasures and pains

What you take forward

is all that make sense

thus, IT IS actually........... 

what YOU.......................

learn In the end J

Call it life

He peeps out of the moving train
turns with a smile on his wet face
says " its fun" and continues to look out !
and yes it was fun !
to see nature's ways of bringing a smile
lighting up faces, turning days bright
***
It is like we are the mud
and rain makes us smell so alive!

Manisha di's  photo frame - My rock n roll

Present ! yes it is the most beautiful !

Time may come

Time may go

And some things may not remain like before

But when your lips curl and smile at my sight

And you afford to look at me from the slid of your eye

I’ll remember nothing

The bygone or the yet to come

Because today I had you near

In distance and even time.

Every night

Tiredness embraces me as the sky-blue turns dark

My efforts too, accumulate

Seeing a brand new day at its start

Life smiles at nothing but me and my dreams (that are so far)

And I smile back at life

Because I know

Its not the dream but the journey that adds to the beauty of any dream.

The thought..

Dawn changes to dusk

With the blink of an eye

Time passes so easily

When one understands the meaning of life

And communicates the same to a distant friend

That I remember you as I sleep tonight !

***

It is great to write sometimes
n to be honest words are my best friends....

like books are for some. 

Be yourself :)

The best people in life will never ask for sacrifice 

They'll love, they'll leave 

But they'll never challenge your strengths and beliefs.

 They'll let you be you

 For the only sake

 That they love you!

 They'll let you be you

 Because that is how

 They've always known you! 

And most of all

 They'll let you be you

 Because if you'll be perfect

 How will they complement you!!!

The RED Bud ~~

Brought up by the thorns
in the orchard she was born

bathed in dew
in the eye catching....sweet dawn

She looked the most beautiful
wrapped in the colour of her love

eager and excited
with the sunrise she stood up

holding tight a ray of hope
wishing to see him (her love) ones more

impatient to feel his touch
to be in his arms....to be held by him

And, there he came
to take her forever

he wanted to hold the bud
he wanted to have her
but admiring her beauty
was not his love for her

with this thought so in mind
he came near
and for the one HE LOVED
he pluck her !

***
She was now with him
taking her last deep breath
living the happiest moment
just before her death

she pleased the time
to stop for a while
to ask her love
to hold her tight

she was living a dream she could not believe
in his arms she was about to sleep

with every blink, her breath reduced
the sense of his touch, she started to lose

she smiled ALAS
and with pain she spoke
"
Thank you, Love !
for letting me be yours !

aankhon mei na jaane jazbaat kyu jhalak jaate hain
sochne pe majboor jo kar de aise khaab kyu aate hain
lagte hain zindagi se bhi hasin, kuch pal do pal k saathi jab
taare ban timtimatey hain, fir door kahin kahi kho jaatey hain

WHY I always have a question?

How could it be so
the little droplets and their mother cloud
could hid my bright sun
with just a twist and turn?

How could it be so
that I always have some question
that I always.....want to know
the little rays of hope
peeping from the corners of mother clouds
would they ever warm my face?
and let me feel my bright sun?

How could it be so
that the strongest, the brightest
sun of mine
feels tired to stay
and as it sets, the droplets too stop
and give him way


How could it be so?
that he just could not show
when it was his time to stay ?

Rolling n rolling

Sensible love

If love was blind like he and she
it would have lived like he and she
it would have overlooked the past for its sins
it would have sensed it is the most beautiful thing
it would have still flown as high as it does
leaving behind all that ever stood before love!

BUT the sensible love unlike he and she
gets stuck at someplace unlike he and she
fights with itself, longs for itself
and in the end cries to itself.......
only because love is not blind like he and she
so it couldn't live happily like he and his she !

Dialogue with love

When he looks at me and I could find no place

other than his arms to hide,

I hold him tight to never let him go

And listen to his heart as it speaks to mine….

 "

   Things may come

   Things may go

   But love can always remain like before

 "

His warm black eyes stare back at mine

As if trying to tell me

It’s the only thing that will always seem right.

He looks the sky

Holding me by the waist

I whisper to him

While we are embraced

 "

   We aren’t perfect

   We can’t be

   But, we’ll be close

   That no distance, there will be

 " 

He laughed at me

Drawing me closer than before

 "

   Its not perfection

   But not any compromise too!

 "

And I answer with a few words of my own

 "

   This closeness !!!!!!!

   It may not be perfection

   But, It is SO MUCH MORE

"

Thoughts

My wishes are endless

still I call them few

Because whenever I see you

I wish nothing more than you.

My dreams are really wild

Still they seem nice

Because they are a way to feel you

Even with closed eyes.

My writing may seem child-like

Still I like to write for you

Because they tell you my feelings

Which I might hesitate to speak and do.
