Written Voice Poem
That night when I saw you
Your tear stained face
That inexplicable heart ache
I could never explain
I was glad ... Very glad that you lost something
And glad that I was able to find it.
I felt blessed to have loved you for years
Without either of us having known each other
Perhaps it was your voice or your feelings
May be it was those lyrics
May be it was the peace
That I relished from your songs.
The time when we met
During the fireworks festival
Bumping into you
Was a blessing
You have no idea how I felt
I knew your innocence
I felt your passion
I lost myself in your eyes
A labyrinth which was
But I still feigned ignorance
It was a blessing to be partnered with you to look after the class
To teach you piano
To sing together
To taste victories.... together
Tell me ... When Was it that we started to fall in love
From being strangers how did fate support us ?
When did you become my strength ?
When did you turn into my weakness ?
My dearest , do you know ?
You added colour to my life
A unique painting our memory became
Your pure smile swayed my heart
My dearest you gave me all
I love the scarf you made
I love the food you made
I love your angry face
I love your care
So where did you go ?
Why did you go so far away ?
Where I cannot reach
Should I leave this world to accompany you ?
The separation was unbearable
I lost my memories
I forgot you
I forgot my daughter but then
You still kept hope alive
Fulfilled your promise
Left without your heart
Embedded in another body
I look at her like I look at you
She smiles at me like you smile at me
Now I remember you
I see you in her
It's your heart her beats
My dearest ! I'll miss you
I'll miss you, keep missing you
Even though you left your essence
Even though you cared about me
In your time of death
I'll miss you
For you are an unforgettable memory
A beautiful story
For you my love
I'll live on
Love her as I loved you
Raise my children like you want me to
And when I sit and cry hard alone
Like a desolate child
Come into my dreams and make me free!

Written Voice Poem
Beyond the times of struggle, I grew up
In blazing pursuit of success
I sometimes lost myself
In depths of someone's envy
In closed limpid walls of mirror
Surrounded by many people
I perceived the very significance of life
They were what you call friends but they
never linger long in your life
Then, it dawned upon me
They were but mere fancies of life
Ached my heart with the sudden revelation
For memories that were embossed within me
My life_ a tale. a saga it became
Some dreams abandoned
Some achieved
I walked the crooked path and stumbled across
Fell and dusted the redundant
Then came a man,his presence strange
Added color to my blank canvas
I care so he cared
His likes became my likes
Things I liked were left forgotten
Dawn till dusk I remain reserved
As wife, as mother, as an ideal woman
Wiped the mirror clean to see myself
Faint smile crossed my lips
My lovely hair left uncombed
Years passed, children grew
My lovely hair glistened grey
Wrinkled face and an abrupt smile
Age long as the Nile
The departing time finally came
Every soul's end is same
You can never escape the inevitable
Darkness enveloped my weak eyes
Time certainly flies!

Written Voice Poem
When you look up do you see the
stars ?
Or do you find Mars ?
May be a plain sky
And wish you could fly
The world appears strange
At some point of time
Don't you wish you never existed
That you were never born
Wish we had power
To pass through time
See our futures
Change our destiny
Sadly everything is just an illusion
We wish for an escape
And run, far away beyond our minds
In pursuit of happiness and peace
Our thoughts conflicted
People betraying
Losing all blessings
There is no hope, no way out
At times of struggle
We turn to God
Our prayers as the only hope
But they turn their backs
Time passes and passes
Like river , like sand
Nothing changed, nothing gained
Slowly we cease to have faith
in God and His power
Then whom to call
Where to ask
How to get answers
For our tainted hearts
Goals and ambitions
We dream many dreams
When none come true
Which path to choose?
Aren't we all waiting ?
Deep inside waiting
For someone may be something
to fill the void within us
The despair , sadness and grief
Evil creations of mankind
Make us lose our faiths our hopes
We stop believing in our beliefs
In the end there is nothing
But a baffled soul
Amidst all there comes a time
When a miracle happens
Too good to be true
Too good to be true
Our eyes would fail to believe
We would think it's nothing but
a dream
For our helpless souls are used to be
In dismay
In the end, change is seen
Happiness knocks on your doors
We are afraid to open
Afraid that it would be taken away
From your wretched life
It shines bright ,
brighter than the sun
It lightness your dull life
Pulls you out of darkness
Nourishes your poor soul
Then you believe
in what you believed
Have faith in your faiths
For your patience,
you are rewarded
You smile with trembling lips
Shed tears of joy
It's all part of your fate
Life is just a story to create
