Sometimes…..

Sometimes I so badly want to hear your voice,

Sometimes God just doesn’t give me another choice….

Sometimes life is so cool with its weirdness,

Sometimes you just drop in at my loneliness…

Waited since yesterday, even today is yours, hopefully tomorrow you will rule too,

Dated none, liked a few, hopefully loved one and will always do…

Amidst pain, pleasure, business, life was cruel when I fell for you,

I wasn’t supposed to feel the way I feel, but life was cruel when I had to tell you…

 I am jealous like hell when I find myself making no sense in your life,

But now on, you and my love is free, finally making sense in our life…

Indubitably we are perfectly imperfect for either,

Questionably our friendship remained intentionally unintentional rather…..

Do say that silent thank you on your birthday at twelve,

These little lips will pray for the one who always stays in the heart valve….

Sometimes even if relationships are off, faith and feelings are always on,

Sometimes even if we meet near about, do bless me with a minute to tighten my eye bone!!

Waiting…

Waiting to walk down that school street together,

Waiting to knock down each other with our sarcastic wit,

Waiting to fight with you tight and not apologize,

Waiting to ignore calls more often,

Waiting to treat you as my brother and sound insane,

Waiting to be that friend like before,

Waiting to see you happy always,

Waiting to talk to you like never before,

Waiting to get your glimpse and cry my heart out,

Waiting for these moments as I always did,

Waiting to get hurt again, may be….

A true try (A hypothetical vision)

‘I’ makes no sense in love,

Provided ‘we’ are not together,

I have no issues with your past,

Provided I can trust you with our present and future.

We might or not chosen either…and our families approved this match,

Hope with the intermingling of some respect, understanding and patience,

We win this test.

There will be a ton of expectations,

But I’ll never leave you in isolation,

I want us to be that crazy duo,

Creating for our families coherent sensations….

I’ll never ask you for your passwords- Facebook or ATM,

You’ll have the liberty...

But I’ll undoubtedly keep an eye on your domestic action.

I want us to value each other’s decisions and personal choice,

I want us to protect each other’s families from unwanted noise.

I will try to wait so that we can together dine,

But sorry as you have to say a permanent bye-

To your favorite wine,

I wanna go for a long drive with that fanatical speed,

I wanna hold your hand and walk on the highway when the city sleeps.

I want us to go for adventures rather than slow boat rides,

I want us to stand for each other against the life’s treacherous tides.

I wanna cook occasionally for your entire family so that my duties change,

I’ll take care of your parents after our families exchange and expect the same.

I don’t wanna get wet and enjoy the rain,

But I wanna fly with you over the sea, without being trained.

I can’t knit you a muffler with the initial of your name,

But I will be always a call away-

Whenever life is cold and full of pain,

Hope our life gets filled up with witty and sarcastic good humor,

Hope our friendship lasts forever without any space and rumor.

Everything seems to be an unusual episode with God being the divine spy,

I am ready to give this new beautifully bizarre thing a true try!

Salad…

                                                                                      

And once they shared all puns and pranks,

These days they are like disliked radishes on the plate….

Those ties have always been healthy…

But cucumbers’ cool effect somewhere receded from the gawky family.

Omit those rotten tomatoes and enjoy its little tartness,

Carrots, onions and lettuce with strength…without bitterness…

In this continental salad garnished with mayo…

Lavish are those who forgive, forget and let go.

Respect the chilies,

Balance the diet….

Get back those old faded ties.

Salt to taste and a little love without condition…

These will sprinkle happiness, and that’s my little prediction!

On the city streets…..

                                                                           

The four sizzling seasons banish some hidden pain,

Yet some unsaid words continue to hit the heart hard and dominate,

With a developed life and a sleazy heart,

We stand high on the city streets with all dirt.

Mansions and hovels dazzling the order of the day,

Clarity and courtesy have become illusive across life’s bay,

Many have lost faith in family ties,

False prestige and pay have hardly made men wise.

Over-indulgence making men poor,

Confused beings are standing aloof and feeble for sure,

Sometimes think of others, who cared,

 You’ll be lost literally without your prosperity shared.

Came across many on the city streets,

Few touched my heart with true peace,

Sinister motives and ego have ruled high time,

They are just harsh on life and are not famed to be crimes!

I desire….

I desire to be near…

To follow your life like a vibrant shadow…

See the first stretch of your fervent smile…

To wipe your pain and refrain your first tear,

I desire to hug you tight,

Make the world a happy one to be in…

Following the path of uncertainty,

Have to rely on you blindly…

I desire to hate you fairly,

Every emotion to flow rapidly like a cruel wind…

Then fall for you again,

Like the whiff of the first rain…

I desire to encounter the forgotten tie,

To stare and weep for the unwanted bye,

A true desire to leave you on your face,

Yet again the stupid heart extracts the desired hatred.

I desire to fill the gap of the waited years,

Relive the lost moments of time,

To rise with you,

Never to fall again in life!

And many ‘you’…..

(Dedicated to Damini)

A year older you are to me…

But both mystically hope for the same beautiful life it ought to be…

We have the same 2 eyes, 2 ears and one fun mouth…

I was spared that unfortunate day, you were lost in the crowd!

I don’t know your favorite meal or the preferred color of your cloth….

But hopefully like every girl, food and sleep attract us both….

We both react same on elation and desolation…..

I still read the Constitution and you raised queer questions on its foundation!

This religious land has seen women abuse in many tragic phases…..

Pathetic are the women who rest their cases…

They are shy at the prime…

Wolves get novel chances to reiterate their vile crime!

Indian women have always been an epitome of sacrifice…

But today we are coward and helpless which will always traumatize…

And many ‘you’ will lose the chance to live, love and laugh…

Until we are a little brave to slap the crime rough!

Justice delayed is never justice denied…

Till then, no RIP for you sis and India will keep you alive!

Faith...

Every time he, she, they let me down,

When every passing day downpours tears flooding the town,

When feelings are injured….wounded,

Faith lives still….being heavily bonded!

Little appetites….sleepless nights,

Shattered trust…..a fight for self-respect,

An easy life with common chapters,

Faith has its own magical character!

Now they have all U-turned.

I’ll trust them again with old issues totally burned,

New episodes surely gonna start,

With more faith….much more faith!
