A child is a teacher

My brother sailesh, someone who gives meaning to my life in several ways.

Loving without reason

I ain't do much,
I ain't do a lot,
I ain't a problem solver,
I ain't miss personality at all,
I don't speak a lot,
I don't do much of anything at all,
Still...
I am loved a lot.

dedicated to all friends and family members who love us as we are....our shortcomings nonetheless..

Gone Forever

I don't know why ?-
There are some people,
Who join our lives,
Unnecessarily.
We want them more,
When we realise they are gone,
Forever.
Yet, we wish for them to come back,
At least once,
Or, for sometime,
So that,
We could do all that we didn't,
and still remains.
Or, at least,
We could see them once more...
But...such wishes won't come true.

On Namrata...

I knew someone,
Who had such a big heart,
That there was space for everyone in it.
Her smile was bigger than it,
It filled her eyes and gave you confidence.
Her life itself was an inspiration.

Hidden well behind the facade of happiness,
Was an empty black space,
Which should have been filled with happiness like ours,
But, couldn't be.
Yet, she showed to others that there was nothing wrong,
For their own sake.

I haven't met anyone braver than her,
how i wish i could have known her more.
I am angry,
discontent,
unhappy.
It feels like the biggest injustice ever.
Why did it happen,
To my friend ?

Love - a childish lyric

Why do people fall in love?
Why the heart yearns for someone?
Who made the laws of attraction
And made universal its application ?

Love is an enigma,
An exotic flower,
Everybody has heard about it,
But want to self-experience it.

Love can enter any space,
No abstract shape of heart can lock itself against love.

I have imagined love
I know it will change my life on arrival...
I wonder who he is
Is he sleeping now, blissfully?
Or lying awake,thinking stupidly like me
Perhaps he has better things to do than to lie awake...

How would that moment be ?-
When you see your soul mate in front of you
Years and years of imagination becomes fruitful that day.

Someday, I will share all my words with you
You will realise how much i am missing you

Arresting Exoticism

Beautiful eyes....
They will capture you.
A sweet smile....
To hold you back.
An x factor....
To factorize your heart
Some stupidity....
That humours a lot
Simple yet exotic...
Ordinary yet different
You are under arrest !

The sky is crying again

The sky is crying again.
It knows something wrong has happened,
In someone's life...
It feels their sorrow,
It is grieving for them,
By making these noises,
It is supporting them.
But, just as the someone knows,
That what has happened is done,
My sky too, will realize and stop mourning.
This doesn't mean that the heart stops aching...
It always remains.
My sky too, will cry again.
