THAT NIGHT…!

THAT NIGHT…!

That night
When words scribbled, magically
And poetry came alive
Floated in the air
Filled it with the euphony

That night
When you laid beside me
Your chin resting on my back
Hairs falling on my shoulder
Friction of skins keeping the warmth
Mixed smells of sweat in air
Night growing in its temptation, and still
I lost in my own thought
Searching for words that could
Decrypt the emotion, dwelling in my heart
Almost a rage, I kept denying
That I too could have my love
In my arms, burning agony
Watch ticking slowly
Sound of heartbeat in synch
Oh Dear! You felt my pain
Did not speak anything, just
Made me look into your eyes
Where love tides were waving high
Passionate to take me away
Asking me to dive through, and
Exhausted I let myself flow
Weighed under your voluptuous body
An urge to sail through those curves
Seduction took over
Lips locked, saliva flowing across
As I went deep within you
Bodies became singular
With no sense to stop, I continued, and
Your arms tightened, a joyous cry
Tears rolled through your chick
You murmured love
And I could feel
Your nails doing some scribbling
On my back, like sketching my emotion
Trying to give them shape of words
That had a sense of poetry, and we continued
To create those magical moments
To compose the lyrics, to pen down the feelings.

That night
When our heart spoke love
You became my pen, me you paper
And, we created a magic
We penned poetry
Whose echoes still floats
In the chorus, the sound of love!

I wonder if I could write anything
If you would not have been with me!!!

PRETEND!

Pretend

Like you are an actor

As you are doing rehearsal of it

Since your birth

Like you are unknown of

The meaning of being real

As you live in a virtual world

Like you are part of a

Mathematical problem

Where it starts with

Let’s suppose, and

Ends with hence proved!

Pretend

Like you do not feel hunger or taste

Even if you are ripping fleshes

Crushing bones,

Sucking blood out of veins

Of your own

Raising toast, inviting everyone to join

Clapping on your own brutal victory!

Pretend

Like you cannot hear anything

Even if your soul crying its heart out

Mind torn, growing vacuum inside

An unknown fear griping nerves

Of losing self, purpose

Carnage over own shadow, and

A turbulence hit, in a cascade

And you feel nothing at all

Your sense organs been paralyzed

It could do nothing, but to watch

Prohibited of showing emotion, crippled soul!

Pretend

Like you are on a world screen

Your duty is to entertain everyone

Raise the voice, lower your gaze

Broaden your lips, let smile take over

Even if they praise you with

Knives and swords of expectations

Stabs your soul, buries you in the debris of memories!

Pretend

Just do it, as it’s your karma!

*Karma- a willful action you are supposed to accomplish…

I SEE YOU STILL…

As I walked by those pathways

Down the hill, alone this time

Pathways, which were once cherished

With cold breezes, smiling flowers,

Dancing waterfalls, greenery all over, like one

In a picture of paradise, Blossomed

With all imaginative picturesque beauty

I see you still, in that vast green grassland

Sitting, under an old tree, playing

With the grass roots,

Singing a folk song, slowly

Euphony swirling in air, adding

Touches of innocence, making it look poetic

Breaking the eternal silence, in your own style

Like the god of love has come to pamper you himself

And, you unknown, careless of happenings around

Weaving a shadow of dreams for yourself

Decorating it, with those memorable moments

We spent together, holding hand in hand

With a desire of being together forever and ever

With a feeling to get drowned in each other’s eyes,

Filled with unconditional love and emotion

With an attempt to get lost in each other’s appearance

Carving to make it two bodies, one soul!!!

Oh Dear! Such was our love, and those lovely moments

Invokes me still, forces me to look back

Even the promise we made faded slowly

As the time passed by, and life moved on

That seed of love we planted, turned to a

Banyan tree, whose branches hanging out even today

Reminds us every time we passes it by

Down our memory lane, of love

That was nothing less than ideal, and though

We failed miserably, it still lives there

Asking us to spend one more evening, together

Below its branches, to recreate that magic

That hypnotized the world, one

We once were ready to die for

I see you still,

Sitting, Weaving, Singing

And the dream continues…

Me or Her?

Was it good, was it bad

Was it white, was it black

Was it me, was it she

Breaking relationship

Things turning sad!

Was I right, was I wrong

Was she right, was she wrong

Was I fighting, or she did

Question remained

Would love survive or

Is it going to be dead!

Both were asking for

Answer, Who had

Neither me, nor her,

Though questions alike,

Goals alike, to keep love alive

And, for that one moment

Wait continued

Of that first step

Both kept guessing

Whether she would or I should!

Moment never came

Love died quietly

Time passed in night and day

Life moved on,

But still today, they have

That broken thread

Of relationship, once blossomed

In their backyard

And, still an old, half erased page

In middle of a book, read

Love you forever!

Who did write it?

Was it me, or, was it her!

Slow Motion Life, A Retrospect!

Slow Motion Life, A Retrospect!

Slow motion life

Like one in old movies, with dark shades of

Grey, black and white, no other color, like

Missing the redness, so does temptation

On the face of a newly married bride,

            Like one in the midst of city traffic, blowing horn

Noise taking its toll, an unintentional hurry

To get out of the crowd, frustration

To put on the acceleration, fly,

Like one in the streets of a slum

In the middle of a big and bright city

Looking at it like a Lion, ready to swallow                               

The doe, without making any sound

Though, careless, relaxed poor people

Having round of gossip over issues

How one politician fainted while on hunger-strike

How one superstar had to walk couple of steps

In hot sun for his fans, must be hard for him, a sigh*

And a baby sleeping nearby, with dust all over

Unknown of happenings all around,

Like one in a war-torn city of Afghanistan or Iraq

Where every next step you put

Could bring the death, a terrible one

Where children have forgotten

The meaning of school and play

Still an urge to make it better, though

Sitting in a refugee camp, waiting for milk for her baby

She had a hope that one day it would get back its glory

Her baby would be able to roam freely

And the talk of change would become reality, slowly,

Casanova life keeps on flirting with us,

Enjoying in tranquility all over, deluded

We called it a slow motion life…!

On Her Wing of Dreams!

On Her Wing of Dreams!

She came like a wind

Blew me away

From myself,

Even my shadow

Was left behind

Unaware though shaken

In a state of trance

I kept flying high in sky

On her wing of dreams

Passing through clouds

Hairs playing on her face

Watching her smile

While passing through thunders

Through those beautiful lights

Various colors, like trying to compete

With colors on her dress

And she, like a mermaid,

Up, down, and taking sharp turns

Making her voluptuous body

In ample display,

Like beauty of nature

Raw in hills and valley

My eyes hypnotized

Fingers wrapped tightly

Around her waist, heartbeat racing

Unable to look around

Unable to look beyond

I kept flying with her

On her wing of dreams

Forgot world, even self

Like nothing else existed

Just she and me

A fresh beginning this summer

Temperature soaring, hot romance

Our lips locked, flowered kiss

Our body glued, stiff

Arms around each other

Universe came on a halt, though

No more stopping to us

Love is in the air, and

I am flying with her,

On her wing of dreams!

An Urge!

An urge to write

The emotional vibe

Your love, your feelings

From the core of your heart

It makes you feel same, as

An urge to bring

Justice, to fight

For a cause, for love and peace

For what is right

To bring smile on faces

Of those

Sad and deprived!

 It seems hard

Like walking down the road

With a blurred sight

In the midst of rainy night,

Like trying to fly a kite

Against the wind, high in sky

At an ultimate height,

Like to sail a boat

In sea, through its current

Through its high tide,

Like to burn a candle

In the evil dark, facing a cyclone

Holding it’s shaken, yet

High on spirit, it’s light!

It all may seem hard

Impossible to achieve, but

That’s where lies

The challenge, I accept

I will always

Continue to fight

I will always

Continue to write.
