LIFE AT STANDSTILL

From morning till night my life swoops down,
Tiresome it might seem, in love I am in,
I love the four walls of my room,
They see me growing everyday.

I love the ceiling over my head,
It keeps telling me that God is overhead,
I have worked day and night,
Boredom I do not dislike.

Dreams are not so high,
The tides make them die,
And here I wait for no one,
As there is stillness in the sky.

Cocoon is warm inside,
Hardly I go outside,
From visitors I try to hide,
In my bed I sleep tight.

For growth we need to go soul inside,
Not this daunting World outside,
How do I tell this world?
I am not that girl they saw a few times.

The Game of Words

The Game of words Contemporary humans play,
This is  what I see everyday.
A World of broken promises and dreams,
I see them in the garden of life everyday.

Blame game is easy always,
Difficult the fair way is,
Sweet the forbidden fruit is,
That's why sinning the World is.

Not just us poets and writers do this,
The people young and old all do it,
Son and daughter lying to the parents,
Spouses lying to the love forever,
Couples modifying the truth.

Marketing strategies is a dignified word for it,
Socially used by every section of society it is,
That is the reason why humanity is lost,
We spend all day in playing this game.

We are tired but we can't quit,
For noone wants to lose the game,
How can we have so many winners,
That's the reason why despair conspires.

Falsehood is what we carry in our hearts,
Not that the mind gives this spark,
Greed is what consumes our love,
Responsibilities just break us apart.

BIZARRE RELATIONSHIPS

You I thought could be the man of my dreams,

You turned out to be the same deception,

This is the reason why I don't comply,

This is the reason why I don't put down my armour.

No feeling is left inside of me,

How should I open my heart and make you see,

Trust once broken was broken forever,

Heart once broken was broken forever.

No tears, no regrets and no expectations,

That's the way I am and will remain,

No matter what you feel today,

It's better to be beside the truth than falsity.

Follies I don't count, feelings I count,

Truth I count,transparency I count,

Alas I din't find it again,

In a human being I must say.

CLOUDS OF MISERY

Clouds of misery have flown to my garden,

They do not pour and get lost amidst time,

They stay there to throw darkness in my heart,

A never ending storm in the ocean of mind.

Dawn never sheds light in my garden,

Flowers and fruit have become colourless,

Heart is growing paler every passing moment,

No one is there to understand despair.

Leaves have turned yellow, no sunshine is there,

The sky is clear in my village,

My garden it seems is haunted by the fears,

I dread of broken promises and dreams.

Dusk I try to evade, as forsaken I feel,

Mighty God has no cries, I wonder where he sleeps!

Often insomnia gives me a couch to sleep,

And I still await, someday Clouds of misery will fly.

Remorseful Mistake

You are a wave of the ocean, but the ocean is where I want to reach,
You are a streak of the sunlight,the sun is where I will get the warmth from,
You are a fallen twig of a tree ,I have to get on top of that tree to have a view of this forest,
You are a hailstone that has hit the Earth, I am part of a cloud and the limitless sky,
Beauty is you look at,heart is invisible to blind like you
Earth is round, life also goes in circles, so our deeds will come back to us

You are like the dark night, which can never have light
Darkness is what you spread, closing all the doors of hope
Humanity is miles away from you, why you're born a human then?
Love is a game for you which you think you win all the time,
Love is an emotion which one day you will miss in your life,
I still have only love deeply embedded in every corner of my heart,
Atleast I'm human unlike you, insatiable desire you have of money
Thankyou Lord for making me a human in the world of Animals.

कभी यूँ भी

कभी ज़िन्दगी  में यूँ भी कोई मिल जाता है ,

होता वह खुद कुछ नहीं ,पर हमें कुछ न होने का एहसास दिला जाता है,

हैं कुछ दुनिया में ऐसे भी ,जो हमारी शक्सियत को भुला देते हैं I 

खुद कुछ भी न होकर ,हमारे लिए सब कुछ बन जाता है 

हैं वह भी खुदा तेरे ही बन्दे ,

जो खुदा के करीब ले जाता है ,

हमारे आत्म सम्मान की धज्जियाँ उड़ा जाता है I

पर मन में यही सुकून रह जाता है ,

कि बुरा करते हुए कुछ अच्छा छोड़ जाता है ,

खुदा तुझे याद करना सिखा जाता है ,

तेरे दर पर छोड़ जाता है I  

FROM A DISTANCE

Can I watch you from a distance ?

Can I take a glimpse of your smiling face?

Your hair after the morning shower,

makes me yearn to see you.

Can my eyes hold you in my heart?

Can my hands feel your hands for a moment?

Can I come and run my fingers in your hair?

BUT I know this is all fascination.

                       

I want to see you from a distance,

When you talk to your friends,

When you laugh among them,

When you crack your jokes,

and others are rendered insane.

I want to see you from a distance,

When you are with your mother,

Because I know she loves you the most,

There the World ends for you, 

And I want to see you when your mother loves you,

Happiness on your face visible with a killing innocence.

I have nothing to give you alas!

Prayers and Blessings I have a mass,

Can I watch you from a distance?
