Magic...

They met under a sun
Too cold to be true,
He was glad to be out
She longed for the blue.
Their pace mismatched,
And mind on two poles,
Somewhat like being..
In  two  parallel worlds.
She had to check twice,
His words were on run.
He perhaps got nowhere
Past her thoughts two or one.
Life was in a hurry,
Moment in blurs,
Yet his fingers made pixie dust

When entwined  in her’s!

FOREVER FOREVER

In a chequered world of blacks and whites,
Me and you, we hope to find,
Warmth and hues as of balls of wool
Something true and so beautiful!
Like laughter ringing from a snowy hut,
From the trip you planned, never made it but!
The song you missed as the blind man passed,
Perhaps you were tired, and, traffic was vast?
Like a patient rainbow waiting for ages,
While of a dull life you complain in rages.
The full moon showed-off and stars did sway,
While you promptly planned a brighter day!
Like pennies gleaming in a wishing well,
Your eyes were shut and you just can't tell.
Like the stains, on her cheeks were found,
When she heard dad leaving with dawn's first sound..
Like the letters they wrote, yet never sent,
For promises break and words don't mend.
The falling star missed, in a moment of mirth,
While you laughed at tales of heaven on earth!
Each day you choked for a perfect life,
Like bees store nectar in a fateless hive.
You schemed a forever all the while,
Life kept watching with a sarcastic smile!
For, today, the lifetime you just ran through...
And none meets tomorrow, neither will you!

A LITTLE MORE LOVE.

The world is a wreck,
Society... a mob,
Maybe we could do...
With a little more love.
Beneath flesh painted,
Hides skeletons rough,
Soul screams deep down
For a little more love.


Eyes that were spooned out,
Before light they did see,
And insolent tears of
A smashed virginity;
They couldn't care less for your
Red rose, pink dove;
Ironic! but all they ask
Is a little more love.


Mighty forests torn down,
Striped corpses lie...
Oaks shrivel in panic,
Sun sets with a sigh!
Informations run fast, yet
Love runs out faster!
Red ribbons tie hearts where
Trust quietly slips by.


Untie all promises,
For the road is too rough.
But nothing you can't make through
With a little more of love!


There's a mad world out there,
It will reach you and hound!
Slice you by nicknames,
Your sight and your sound!
Paint all your faces,
Get lost in the crowd;
Hold hands, stick, embrace...
Don't ever be found!

Live.

The morning sun will come out fine,
If you live through the night's demise,
And blinding rays will hand you truth
If faith stares right through your eyes.
Shed the weight off your arms,
Bury the ghosts, baggages burn,
Listen the valleys call out your name,
Faith is the next untrodded turn.
The mayfly lives but for a day
Yet faith moults it to another life,
Run on edge, go find yourself,
Amidst illusions, just lies survive.
Sing as the bird, that believed in spring,
Dance along the pied-piper's pipe,
For splendour lives till the creek,
Why fall in agony? Smile and dive!



 

A Good Life.

I shut the sun with my index finger,
Turned down the sunkisses warm and soft,
Closed the pages of faraway tales
And locked the unreachable sky in my loft.


Called off my truce with distant dreams
And made a pact with earthly breeze,
For you can't wear stars beneath your skin
But a smile do wear to put the soul at ease.


Now on,
Milestones won't hide the pleasues of life,
Benchmarks wont wither my dishevelled wing,
So amidst all roadmaps and collars white
I'll gather my pebbles and ear seashells that sing!
