Middle of no-where?

In the middle of the journey
When you reasoned
And felt, that this
is not worth it -

You quit my love.

That day
When I lost ‘you’
I found my precious self.

For love

Do you remember?

The first time we met

Exchanging the strange expressions

Unsure why the heart was beating faster

And the world seemed nicer.

The first call that you made

We talked for hours

Then wondering what the talk was about.

How we became friends

Over few cups of coffee

The ups and downs

Binding us into something known as love

That never let us live apart.

The first time we fought

Saying those words which I didn’t mean

And then consoling that life without you is a life not led.

The first time I cried

You held the tear

Said it was precious as a pearl coz it was mine.

The first time I promised

To love you forever

In that pouring rain

Where you could hardly hear.



Do remember --

No matter even if I have said it a thousand times

I am here to stay

To love you for now and for always…

Twisted wish

I want to make a wish
That my only wish must be you, love.
And if you do not wish to be with me
Then let the wishes be unwished.

-Poorna

Away

In between our souls
When distance embraced each parting step
I was not to choose.
So I let myself to disintegrate --
To become your dream
That could never be disowned.

Poorna

Distant

God returned you to me,
you came back and gave me my broken wings.
As we fly high -
in the light blue sky called life
trajecting a new trail,
why do you seem like a distant dream
that never realises ?

-Poorna

After a long time......

The clean white tiled room with miniscule prints
Smelling of a fragranced disinfectant
Shiny pieces of metal, artificial flowers
The television blazing in full volume
My hand on the remote zapping
Mind wondering
The rays of the noon sun
Trying to pierce through the thick curtains
The cushion beneath
Comforting the drowsy eyes
I sleep away dreaming of the serene air
Green pastures, sparkling rainbow
Captured between the four walls
Mind wanders, here and there, this and that...

Woman

This is dedicated to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeOumyTMCI8
Morning rays warming her dark skin
Laid as a bare body her chances of survival so thin
Eyes staring at her looking away
Hands afraid to hold her, help is just a say
Her people come and take her home
They heard someone whisper ‘rape’, their hearts doomed
She blows the pain suffering within
Trying to light the fire of revenge, never letting it sink in
Defeat is something she hates to accept
Coz with time she is going to stand on her own,
Steel strength alone reflects
Damn the world, she fights for her justice
Her purpose crystal clear, her journey never ceases
Her virtue can be stolen but not her vision
Coz the deal is the ‘strength of a woman’...

Wanderlust

The blue bottle of my pristine dreams
Rolled down to your feet
You pick it up with your tender hands
Find it not so worthwhile
Throw it away
The glass lies on the floor, shattered
Floating dreams flowing with the breeze
Kissing the clouds
Flying high
Reaching nowhere
Why did you break me?
My dream asks you
When all I dreamt was ‘you’

Lighthouse

In the abyss of
Lost hopes
Fighting hard
Not to drown in the silence
Sailing and floating
In a direction unknown, unexplored
Help me find a path
Be my lighthouse
Be with me, my master!

Weekend

Vodka
Vodka
Vodka
Vodka
Vodka
Vodka
Six pegs done
N I see God smiling at me…

Weed
Weed
N I am floating in the heaven…

My weekend is complete
N I am set for another screwing Monday morning

Migration

Sitting across the sea
Pondering over good and bad
Thoughts keep migrating
Between the two
From shore to sea
From sea, back to shore

Creativity

God created the beauty
The fragrance of the tiny flowers spread across miles
The varied shades of the firmament lying quiet
The birds humming the divine tunes
The soft breeze carrying the holy whispers
The flowing water purifying the souls it touches
The mother earth holding the remains without any complaints
The trees standing in patience n bearing the sweet fruits
The rains showering the message of love
The never repeating colours making the rainbow glow
The world a screen, every dusk n every dawn a new scene
Then he created the Humans
And his creativity ceased to exist forever after…

Friendship

Facing the raw situations together
Rendering companionship
In times of need
Endless spree, sharing n’ caring
Next to each other
Despite all odds
Sailing in the ship called life
Hold my hand, my friend
I will be with you
Promise me the same for eternity

Reincarnation

No matter how
Each time
A dream of mine
Is killed
By this world
Filled with
Insecurity

Somewhere
Unknowingly
A new thought takes
Its first faint breath
Growing up into
A new dream…

:(

Dull morning
Cold clouds
Lost thoughts
Fake pretense
Forced smiles
Deep hurt

Without you…

Dab Hand

Dancing to the tunes of the world
Asking the questions that even the soul does not know
Breaking the dreams to fulfil duties

Hold on
Ailing heart needs that passion to revive the fading life
Note that you are gifted for something
Do it or you are just killing your special skill

Written for Acrostic only

Shift in time

There was a time
When I would look at the sky
And thank god for the serenity he bestowed
Now all I see is dreadful loneliness
Creeping within me
And swallowing my happiness
Past is nothing but a pile of doomed hopes,
The dust of surrendered dreams silenced forever
Insecurity etching its story
In the stoned pages of hatred filled days
My aura has lost the glory
Now I can only give back pain
Sarcasm has become my expression
Loathing the world my honest duty
In all the ways life forced on me
Where is the chastity of my innocence lost?

:)

To say or not to say
To do or not to do
To think or not to think
To care or not to care
But the toughest confusion is
To love or not to love...

Elusive

Entangled with my own confusions
Misty eyes blurring visions
Lost soul wondering in reality
Waiting for the dreams to return
Hopes clinging on to beliefs

Someday elusive dreams will come true
For that glorious moment
I shall fight
The chasing death

Leave me alone

Walk away
Leave me alone
It’s all over
I have nothing left for you
Nothing to give
Nothing to take
Let me make my way
Live this world
Rest in some peace
No more tears
Get high
Lose the pain
Feel numb
Care for my own sake
Avoid myself from the mess
Have some good sleep
Damn all the saintly promises
Walk away
Leave me alone
I want love no more…
