Forever And For Always....

When I think of you,

It seems to me,

Like the world takes a pause....

To let me recall,

Your innocent laughter......

The moist breeze of the first monsoon,

Birngs me your breath......

And I take it in.......

I make it my own......

When I chuckle aloud,

With the toss of my head,

The unconscious moves

Stroke my hair gently.......

I sense the eyes,like those of a doe,

Watching me from somewhere.........

And I blush like the first rose of spring.......

As I feel your warm gaze,

Caressing the nape of my neck.......

When the glistening drops of gloom,

Find their way into my eyes,

I look at my refelection.....

And I see your calmed countenance......

Healing my soul with a smile......

Whispering words of wonder,

That embrace my fragile heart......

Never letting it slip........

Never letting it break.........

When success will bow at my feet,

I'll look into the crowd of cheers,

And these eyes will seek yours.....

Sparkling like none other....

With genuine happiness and care.........

And it will be on such days,

When I'll get the golden chance to say,

This is my man, my love, my life......

Who has made me what I am today.......

When I think of you my love,

No words can express,

What I wish to articulate.......

My heart reaches out to yours,

In special moments like these........

In silent, miraculous ways........

And I know you are there.......

Full of life, full of love........

Holding me in your strong arms,

Forever and for always.....

For you, Superman....

Fake......

Your eyes, they will see in me,

A broken dream...

As I hold in my hands,

The remains of my strings of belief......

The beads of hope,

Scattering, slipping out of sight.......

Like the receding rays of sunlight.......

Leaving me in darkness........

My tears will not speak,

Of the chances I failed to get......

But of the precious times,

When I failed my chances.....

The frozen sting,

Still makes me numb......

I now see where I stand......

How far I always stood...........

From the reaches of your heart.......

The muted memories of my helplessness,

Give me the picture you framed.....

Mauled by your grey eyes....

And I lost my meaning......

I dared to speak,

But the hearing is done......

The judgment is passed......

I plead with thee,

To know what went wrong.....

Where I fell out of the way.......

But I'm to be left unheard,

And as my will is choked,

With the noose of silence,

I'm tainted as a fake.....

And I fall in love again.....

The soft tickle of your warm breath....

The aroma of sentiments,

Filling the air....

Content diffused in giggles.....

The ruffle of your hair,

Against the rose of my cheek.....

And I fall in love again.....

Your fingers entangled with mine..

The syrup of your desires,

Quenching my thirst.....

The beads of happiness,

Welling in the depths....

Of the soft brown of your eyes.....

And I fall in love again.....

Our thoughts dissolved,

In the stillness of time...

As moonlight dances,

Sprinkling drops of grace,

On your elegant countenance.....

As you draw your hand across mine...

With a smile full of selfless care......

And I fall in love again.....

With the lingering freshness,

Of your overwhelming kiss....

With the gentleness,

Of your healing caress.......

With the sanctum I find,

In your assuring presence..

With the love I cherish,

In the innocence of your soul....

I fall in love again,

As I rediscover my God in you.......

Dedicated to my Superman.....

Stoic....

Threads of thoughts,

Knotted in unwanted bonds....

Eyes of stone gazing aimlessly

Lost lustre, dead and cold....

The choking butterfly,

Strangled in the spider's web.......

Torn wings, voiceless pain.....

Oh mutated soul,

Release the rein!

Overwhelmed skies, wary and grey,

Relentlessly shed tears.....

But smoking fires don't melt iron......

Yet the heart fears that touch......

The fragile bird of song,

Tethered to the chains of freedom.......

Ashes of darkness,

Rubbed in as a remainder,

Of that haunted daylight.....

Yet the chilling frost,

Was once some tender drops of dew.....

There were colors of smiles,

In the wounded rose....

Now lying mutilated.....

The scatter of petals,

Still whisper the unspoken.....

That hides behind the stolidity

Of this mystic statue.....

Wrinkled by the winds of time.....

Moulded in the cast,

Of a silent stoic.....

Beside Me,Inside Me.....

The gentle glow of your pristine soul,

Delighting my senses ,

Like the scent of fresh lilies.....

A collage of memories,

Like the leaves of autumn

Falling around me,

Engulfing me,in their playful embrace........

I take refuge,

In the coziness of your love cushioned heart...

I bask in the warmth of your care......

Your tender voice soothing my mind........

Like a long forgotten lullaby.........

The strength of your presence,

Beside me,inside me......

Shielding me from those belittling eyes.......

Your hand on my shoulder,

And I can face the world blind.....

'Cause you're just a thought away......

A look at your confidence,

And I can proudly say,I live,I survive

You light the flame of life in me......

The trust in your eyes,

And I know I am someone....

Your words caressing my spirits,

Like a soft kiss on my forehead.........

Your understanding silence

Opening the rusted gates,

And showing me a world,

Where I can be what I dream.......

I turn around and smile,

At that familiar silhouette beaming at me.......

I know you are there,

I know you will always be.......

Dedicated to my dada...

on his birthday...20th of october,2008

I love you...

Identity...

A silent satire,

Garnished with some sad humor

Strikes my mind.....

As I walk into living glamour,

Wondering what strings

Reign these painted puppets,

Dancing to the rhythm of conventions....

Flaunting their desperation to glitter.....

And doing so,with pride!

What but a puff of smoke,

Guarding their unstable status.....

What but the last glass of wine,

Making them knights in shining armour!

A greedy gleam marks each eye......

Many a sadist thought

Concealed in those false-sweet smiles......

I ponder over stifled sighs......

Exhausted with the unseen bonds....

Caging the freedom,

Of expressing yourself

To a horde of taunting jeers.......

I can't help but smile,

At the struggle they have to face

To meet the true eye.......

The preferred trend is to turn blind......

When trouble nags thy neighbour....

Wipe your hands clean

When you decently commit a crime......

Embellish a wrong deed of that stranger

But when it comes to oneself,

Its not worth giving it your time.....

Dilution is the key

To triumph over emotions.....

Practicality is the mask,

For the insensitive minds......

And then they come and ask me,

"What is your identity?

What have you done

To seek and prove your capabilities?"

I laugh on their stunned faces,

Till tears fill my eyes...

And tell them," You see my friends,

This is where my identity lies...."

Revenge.....

Touch me like the barbed rose,

Slide your fingers

Let them sink in my veins.....

Draw me close....

Pull me tight...

Choke me with the noose

Of the poisoned obsession,

Gleaming in your eyes.....

Smell my skin and take me in.....

With the hunger of the white vice.....

Devour my emotions

And lick the last tear......

Does it satiate your animal?

Your madness cannot stain my spirit...

Tear me apart

And the blood will be frozen.....

The flesh decayed....

My body has long lost

The vigour of life....

Its the haunted cadaver you relish.....

The strings are broken

Your music can't deafen my mind.... 

The last breath is taken

No more can you rejoice my pain.....

The soul has been unleashed

You helpless scavenger....

It flies,chastised into the skies.....

Now you look on with blinding rage

While I rise high

And chuckle at your cries.......
