One Last Goodbye

I was lying on the bed,
         staring at the ceiling.
The lines, the corners,
         the torned peeling.


Thoughts galore,
   wondering how far i have flown. 
Life's gonna change soon,
   a cacaphony or a croon?  


Colleges, classrooms, friends flee,
               and although its summer,
feels like cold waves,
               shivering me.


The bunkings,the "GTs",
              the outdoor excursions.
The Kerwa,the Bhojpur;
              the Islamnagar mansions.


The movies,the malls,
            the meetings at places,
Slurpy schmaltzy memories
                        of "faces".


All those rendezvous,
          are turning obscure.
The eye's all wet,
          as the images conjure.



And now the day's drawing near,
        and i doodle in my harrowing fear.
How will life be without you,
        I'm absolutely left with no clue.

Remembering Dad

Sumtymes when i sit to think, 
All those success comes to a shrink.
Life is just a rattling race
Hurts a lot wanna be in your embrace.

Sumtimes when i'm tired and churned.
looked back at space and images conjured.
And then u held me in ur arms, 
Where have u gone DAD leaving me drained.

U never made me 
Feel short of anything, 
Did all da hard work, 
To keep me basking.

Still remember the days
When we sat together.
watching cricket..
ohh FATHER! ! ! 


And da nights, 
when i sleep offmood.
U would wake me up, 
To take my food.


And there were
myriad manifestations of ur love, 
From big hefty presents, 
To sweet little hug.


And i'm longing 
For ur love DAD, 
I'm still 20 
still a little lad..

The Ludicrous Love

Have u ever been in love? 
                   makes u vulnerable, like the kites above.
open ur chest and opens up ur heart, 
                   allowing to mess up, in ways absurd.


U build up all defenses, 
                  u build up  a suit of armor, 
To no use it is, 
                  it creeps like a burgular.


The stupid u, the stupid one
                     wanders into ur stupid world, 
And u give them a piece of u, 
                     for which they never asked.

And  then one day something
                      stupid happens, 
A kiss, a touch, a smile, 
                       renders u hapless.


And then ur life is 
              not yours anymore, 
confusion, dillema, sleeplessness
                           outpour.

And  then she sends
           'may be we should b friends'
leaves u sulking, bemoaning'
              and everything ends.

Sundry Wishes

Turn down the silence, 
                             with ur sweet melody; 
            coz i'm deep in thoughts, 
                             n i'm feeling bluey.
            
               
           Turn down the ache, 
                     if u can see the longing pain; 
            coz i'm weary n tired, 
                        n i'm all strained.


           Turn down the trauma, 
                      of loosing ur embrace; 
            coz days flying swiftly, 
                          n i'm fallen out of place.


             Turn down the time, 
                           force them to stop; 
              lemme bewitch the beauty, 
                          before the curtains drop.

Why

Why can't you feel
            the way i feel
the way i blend
            the way congeal.



Why can't you break 
       the way i break
And smile when you see
       like when i see your face



Why can't you be
       the air i breathe in
the shelter i crave
       under your skin.


Why can't you longer
       Your ephemeral love
to drench my heart
       draw the fire of.


Why can't you be  
          the crutch of my cripple
the calm of my conscience
           my booze, my tipple
           

Why can't you be the peace 
                        that i have found
When all the voices 
                        talk around.

As If She Knew Me

It was back in college 
                  about 3 years ago, 
when we first met
                  and everything went on.
 

The face so pious
                   the smile so pure, 
the words compassionate, 
                   was enough to lure.


Days and night 
               she gripped my mind, 
and adorned my thoughts, 
               like the world is to a blind.


I picked up habits
                i was not acquaint, 
like waking up all night, 
                and singing in the rain.


The days went by
                the love grew stronger, 
was lookking for ways, 
                 to assuage my hunger.

Searching Solace

I still remember that stay, 
           that day, that week, that May...
You told you would come, 
            and i waited all the way.


Time kept ticking, 
           was painstaking...
You didnot come, 
       n left me brooding.


I shuddered, i muttered, 
          n finding reasons...
why i loved you, 
          loved you for seasons....

And This Is How You Feel

I have been wondering all these years, 
Is it a smile or a mocking jeer.
Said you are special and will always be, 
Why don't u believe me, Oh dear! ! 

I have travelled a distance with pain and pleasures, 
held my love like a precious treasure.
Your care was my mental chores, 
and you say i don't make u feel greater! ! 

I sighed and doodle or stare into space; 
found nobody else except your face.
Poured my heart with your sterile words, 
and you think its all fake and grimace! ! 

How can i make u feel my love, 
cut my nerves or jump from above.
Hope that my care will someday count, 
before my flame burns out..
