The Wind; July 12, 2009; 11:00 am

I open the window
And it gushes in
Makes me feel good
On my skin
It keeps blowing
To an unknown destination
With the same high speed
Intending to settle somewhere

Take me with you
You are the only one
Who is happy
To meet me everyday
To talk to me
I let myself loose
Thinking
Layer by layer
I disperse
And fly away
Take me with you
With closed eyes
I see the moment
When I turn in to a feather
Just to be with the wind

Take me with you
To the far away land
Where I can settle
Wherever you settle
Where I can love you
Where I can be with you completely
Where we can play
Where the pain will erode
And the longing shall disappear
And I can feel alive again

A wish; July 12, 2009; 11:00 am

I wish she could see me independently of the strings attached. Then may be I would have a chance. May be she would reciprocate. May be she would give in to her wants. Although I want her to be with me COMPLETELY, a part of me is also scared. Scared of time – since it will continue to pass, whereas when I am with her I want the time to stop – everything around to dissolve and disappear. Continuously wishing for her, a part of me tells me its not worth it since in this life it cannot sustain itself for long – and may be I am scared of time after that. And I would rather have her in my life in some way rather than none at all.

If some of my wishes be fulfilled, the top of the list is that I want to go with her when she ascends from this world…..Just so that I can be with her then. Please – take me with you.

Life in moments; July 12, 2009; 1:30 a.m.

In bits and pieces
I get to live
So let me live
In bits and pieces
Let life flow
I am parched
Let me be parched

While napping yesterday
I heard you whisper in my ear
To save myself from falling in your arms
I trampled on my dream
I looked around for you
I had received a message from you
Let me complete my dream
I am thirsty
Let me remain thirsty

You painted the sky
And I have the earth
Beneath me
But life is good
In just longing
to be with you
Let me spend this life
Longing for you
I am thirsty
Let me be thirsty

A little void
May be filled these days
By your words
The remaining
I shall fill in
With your thoughts
And my tears
I am thirsty
Let me remain thirsty

In bits and pieces
I get to live
So let me live
In bits and pieces
Let life flow
I am parched
Let me be parched

Resonance; July 10, 2009; 1:50 pm

I am a string
with many other strings
All of us have to play
the role

One is strong
Makes a deep sound
The other
Just like me
But intelligence abound
The 3rd one
Sings a happy note
Yet another one
She falls short

I make a sound
And everyone applauds
The best sound ever heard
I enjoy the compliments
While acknowledging
The emptiness within

And then
She strummed
Soothingly soft
I have ever heard
Firm and gently
Facing the crowd
Trying to keep a face
I got lost in her sound
away from that space
Listening to her
Something within me moved
Felt like singing
In a joyous mood
As she continued
Sang a heightened crescendo
I saw myself responding
To her song
In a way I couldn’t comprehend
I felt there’s nothing
In my hand

She is alive
And she makes me same
She is joyous
And she makes same
She is dancing
And she makes me same
She is beautiful
And she makes feel me same

I heard the loudest cheer
When I sang at the time
My song was complete
The crowd saw the different shine
Within I was full
Fullness I didn’t know before.

Lady of dreams; July 9, 2009; 9:30 a.m.

Its dusk time, I am sitting on a rock by the sea little away from the beach. I watch her silhouette against the painted crimson sky. I can see each and every strand of her hair, singing merrily with the breeze. The eyes are watching the eternity beyond the horizon attempting to create the same within.
God, she is beautiful – from within and without.

Call of the nicotine; July 9, 2009

Starting the day
With my daughter
On the way to school
Spending light happy moments
Tears me from within
The heart is somewhere else
The mind makes the effort to bring me in

On my way back
Watching the racket
Of the mind
I see my hand
Reaching out for the packet

July 3, 2009; 10:30 a.m.

I am myself amongst strangers
And a stranger among my own people

July 3, 2009; 7:00 a.m.

I give her my piece of gold
She gives me her piece of brass to hold

Find me; July 3, 2009; 1:00 a.m.

Close your eyes
With an open mind
You will see the light
Shining bright
You will find me
Standing in stillness

I come to you
With the morning sun
in search of that
Enriching smile
To face the world
And to feel alive

If you look around
You’ll find me
In every tiny particle
Through the window of your car
Imprinted on the city backdrop
In the stillness of your being
Amidst the flicker of a yearning mind
The way I find you
Looking at me
With the same sparkle

The breeze through your window
Lightly blowing throwing your hair
The tear forming in your eye
Gently reflecting the suns glare
Many secrets, many truths, many people
In the unknown world of your mind

The empty stare in to the infinity
As if calling in to it

The thoughtful walk from here to there
I witness your restlessness
The splash of water on your face
In the effort to drown the tears
Containing your longings
Surrounded by fears

The gentle expression
The quick vibrant glance
The heart warming smile
Life comes in bits and pieces
The distance in your words

Amidst all these broken moments
I stand still
With my love for you

Ek Lamha; June 28, 2009; 2:00 a.m.

Ek khubsurat lamha
Ek bhini si taazgi
Ek pyar bhara sapna
Ek halka sa ehsas
Aur is lamhe mein sirf tum….
Aur kuch nahin

Remembering you; June 29, 2009; 2:10 a.m.

A simple ‘Hi’
Arising from a thought
An inquisitive mind
Wanting to know more
‘Whr r u?’ she asks
The only reason is ‘just’

Gud morning! How r u?
Wot you thinking?
Makes me think about you
Instantly dissolving all my blues

In these interactions
Through the day
I am alive, knowing
You’re with me
and I am with you

One; June 29, 2009; 1:00 a.m.

Listen to you breathe
Amidst the silence of the night
Makes me want to live
Watch you smile
As you pass in to your dreams
Wipe the forming tear
As I witness the
Flashes of shear

I breathe in
You breathe out
You breathe in
I breathe out
The distance
Immaterial
The actions
Of no concern
Its the moment I realise
We are One.

The Moment; June 26, 2009; 6:00 p.m.

I lived a moment
Of complete stillness
Of not yearning anymore
Of no desires
Of no fear
Of immense happiness
Of neither light nor night
Of dreams being fulfilled
Of being
Of eternity
Of discovering myself
And of dissolution
Of completion

That was a lifetime in itself
Sometime ago

Time has passed by since then
But the moment is not lost

If I find this moment in you
Tell me what should I do?

Her Laughter; June 25, 2009; 2:00 p.m.

I wish
to listen to her each moments’ story
to make a necklace
out of the pearls lying
in the ocean of her heart
to dissolve all her melancholy
Cos’ when she smiles
The light from her eyes
Makes the darkness go away
And in each of that moment
I let myself live 1000 lives.

Hansi; June 25, 2009; 2:00 p.m.

Ji chahta hai
Unke har din ki kahani suney
Unke dilki gehraiyon se
nikley motiyon ka haar buney
Unki har mayoosi ko khushi mein badalde
Kyunki jab who hasti hai
Tab unki aankhon ki roshni se
saare andhere shunya ho jaate hai
Aur us hansi ke har ik lamhe mein
Hum hazaar zindaganiyan jee jaate hain.
