Spirit

"-----------------"

At the end of the day,
All that I need is
You by my side.
To sit beside you
and dream as we always do
To just hug you
and feel loved
To just cuddle unto you
and feel safe
Wipe away my tears,dad
Like you did the other day I failed that exam
I am your little one dad,
And will just be.

At the end of the day,
All that I need is
You by my side.
A little space in your lap,mom
To rest my heavy heart.
Every time you ask me to take care,
I would look back and growl.
Now, take care of me mom,
Lest I lose my way
I am your little one
And will always be.

At the end of the day,
All that I wish is
To be just like you.
As beautiful as you mom
As brave as you dad
As loving as you both
As wonderful as you both

I'm nothing without you,
All I am is just you.
I love you,
Not just for what you are
But also for what I am
because of you

The Monsoons

Across mountains and deserts,
I come to you,
To shower my love onto you
To drench you in my love

Across oceans and seas,
I come to you,
To rest my heart in your palms.
To present myself to you

Happy Monsoons!!!!

Spare me,
this pain of separation.
I can take it no more,
the echoes from my hollow heart
A glimpse of you
and I shall attain salvation
A drop of your love
and I shall quench the fathoms of my thirst

Take me in your arms,
Hold me close to you
And when your heartbeat
has melted into mine
Look me in the eye,
to see your heart in my soul

Please spare me,
this pain of denial
I can take it no more,
the woes of my wounded heart

The eyes that haunt me!

A tinge of the night sky lurks in her angel eyes
They look at me,sharply in the eye,
Her gaze boring through me
They hold a little mischief , a little darkness!
Her eyes! They haunt me!!!!

Affection In Your Eyes

You have met my undying fervour with silence

Why would you respond, when you deny I exist?

Oh! The agony those avoiding eyes have caused

They stole my sleep and were gone

----Poems From The desert

His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum,

Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE

, and Ruler of Dubai

Only Thee

That I want thee, only thee ---
let my heart repeat without end.
All desires that distract me, day and night,
are false and empty to the core.
As the night keeps hidden in its gloom the petition for light,
even thus in the depth of my unconsciousness rings the cry
---`I want thee, only thee'.
As the storm still seeks its end in peace
when it strikes against peace with all its might,
even thus my rebellion strikes against thy love
and still its cry is
---`I want thee, only thee'



From Rabindranath Tagore's Gitanjali

nice one

The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.

The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one:
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is done.

-- Francis William Bourdillon

jeevan nahi mara karta hai

One of my favourite poems..
Got it after days of googling....

I can perhaps comprehend the meaning of the lines only now, though this was learnt in the high school

Chip Chip ashru bahaane waalon
Moti vyarth lutane waalon !
Kuch sapnon ke mar jane se
jeevan nahin mara karta hai

Sapnaa kya hai ?
Nayan sez par,Soya hua aankh ka paani
Aur tootna hai uska jyon
Jage kachchi neend jawaniGeelee umar banaane walon!
Doobe bina nahaane waalon
Kuch pani ke bah jane se
saawan nahin mara karta hai

Mala bikhar gayi to kya hai
Khud hi hal ho gayi samasyaa
Aansoo gar neelaam huye
toSamjho poori huyi tapasyaa
Roothe divas manaane walon!
Phati kameez silaane waalon!
Kuch deepon ke bujh jaane se
aangan nahin mara karta hai

Khota kuch bhi nahin yahan par
Kewal zild badaltee pothee
Jaise raat utaar chandani
Pehne subah dhoop ki dhoti
Vastra badal kar aane waalon !
Chaal badalkar jaane waalon!
Chand Khilounon ke khone se
bachpan nahin maraa karta hai

Laakhon baar gagriyaan phooteen
Shikan na aayi panghat par
Lakhon baar kishtiyaan doobeen
Chahal-pehal wo hi hai tat par
Tam ki umra badhaane waalon!
Lau ki aayu ghatane waalon !
Laakh kare patjhad koshish par
upvan nahin maraa kartaa hai

Loot liya maali ne upvan
Luti na lekin gandh phool ki
Toofaanon tak ne cheda
parKhidki band na huyi dhool kee
Nafrat gale lagaane waalon!
Sab par dhool udaane waalon
Kuch mukhdon ki naaraazee se darpan nahin maraa karta hai

Chip Chip ashru bahaane waalon
Moti vyarth lutane waalon !
Kuch sapnon ke mar jane se
jeevan nahin mara karta hai

Gopal Das 'Neeraj'

Insanity

Blood soaked hands reach out from nowhere
Long long gory fingers
crawling,creeping, probing.
A Stifled scream,a half held breath,
the music is in the air!
That sardonic laugh,
echoing,reverbrating
They are after me.
They have teamed up with my shadow
But,Hey!Hey!
I'm a hollow man
You won't find what you seek.
I'm void, I'm free
I've deceived you with my smile
You thought you know me
But no,I'm a stranger
I've killed myself.

When you are not there.....

When you are not there
I don't know what to do ,
what to say
When you are not there,
I'm all alone,I'm lost
When you are not there
There's nothing i can do right.

I can't smile, I can't cry
I can't sing, I can't play
When you are not there,
I simply can't live.

The winds don't blow
The stars don't shine
When you are not there,
Even the flowers don't bloom

The fragrance of the day,
The beauty of the night
When you are not there,
They don't mean a thing..

When you are not there,
I simply can't live.....

A few words...

Swiftly blew the breeze of time
Softly fell the leaves of memory
Before i could pick a few, they blew past me....
Lost souls searching their destiny!!!
