Adios.

A poem i wrote 5years ago, long long time back. found it among the old, dusty folders.
About it? - Its simple.


Emptiness is what I feel,
A hollow heart to show.
I'm running still away from you,
Somewhere I believed, I would never go.

You reckon I love you,
And you said you always did,
Then why today am I alone?

I waited for you as long as I could,
I waited till my heart was torn.

Bled,
Grieved.
Sorrowed.
Mourned.

But i fathom today,
That with a smile, I'll have to let go Afterall
If it wasn't for you,
i wouldn't find the strong woman,
inside the girl.

I am strong enough to say goodbye,
with a never fading smile.

For this I know you'll miss me,
If not always,
but someday, even Just for a while.

Prodigal Daughter.

-->

Most of us don't really like Hindi lectures is school or college, Id say I'm an exception. Because the Hindi kavita's that I've grownup reading, were almost always an inspiration.
Be it Kabir vani, or Meera's poems about Lord Krishna, Or Saint Surdas talking about the Almighty.
Always creating melody from the deepest corners of their hearts. I sure am nothing as compared to those great poets, but this piece is like a Thank you to them, for teaching me so much, about life, love, and The Almighty, its called "Prodigal daughter".
The prodigal son was taken back by his father into the family.
He rose back from the dead, said the father.
The question however is, Will a daughter ever be taken back?
Will the stains that cloud her soul ever be forgotten?

निकल घर से में चली, मोह-माया की ओर,

खींचती  मुझको  जैसे  बंधी  कोइ  डोर |

जिस  तरह  चाँद  खींचता  हे  समुन्दर  की  लहरों  को,

उसी  तरह  बंधी  हूँ, मोह -माया  से में भी  यु |

छोड़  आई  अपने  कुल  का  नाम,

उस  अनजान  मार्ग  पर,

जो  चल  पड़ी  थी  में,

सारी  लज्जा  त्याग  कर |

क्या  आ  सकुंगी  वापिस ?

कया  अपना  लोगे  आप ?

जो  दाग  लगा  हे  मुजपर   |

क्या  भूल  पाओगे  आप ?

नहीं!

दिलदार  नहीं  हे  दुनिया ,

नाही  उसमे  प्यार |

ना  हूँ  में  एक  बेटा ,

ना   किसी  के  कुल  का  चिराग |

में  तोह  हूँ  एक  बेटी,

भूली   भटकी , जो   अब  वापिस  हे  लोटी |

क्या  मुझको  मिल  पायेगा ,

एक  मोका ?

दूसरी  ज़िन्दगी  का  उपहार?

Take Me Away.

Come and take me away…
I don’t want to live,
I'm just going to pray,
Don’t want to see another day.
I don’t want to see another day.

Ugly me, ugly you.
The beautifully ugly,
Me and you.
Together we were
Wild,
And together we were calm.
Together we Were…
And now I’m alone…
Now I’m here, not with you.
Now I’m numb.

Come and take me away…
I don’t want to live,
I’m just going to pray,
Don’t want to see another day.
I don’t want to see another day.


The sweetest of your words,
Were mean, and bad.
Were melodious and sad.
Yet their in my heart,
Like the song I love,
I have music for it.
It plays in my head…

Thus I can smile, when my heart aches…
When missing you seems, like a death in itself….
When wanting you seems, like being stabbed in the chest.
When touching you seems, like the sweetest dream.

Thus I can smile when my heart aches,
Yes I can smile,
And wish, you take me away.

Into your world,
where i can dance and sway.

My Only Refuge

My Haven,


Not the smell of mama's food when all day hungry I've stayed.
Not the refreshing beer on a long exhausting day.


Not the smile that a stranger gives.
Not the streaming tears that provide relief.

My Haven,
The times i wrapped my arms around you, when i was ill.

The kiss on my forehead that you would give.

They are gone with you,
gone to the grave -
the tomb of my only joy.

They are gone with you,
gone to the grave -
the tomb of my only haven.

Apprize!!

Few words for you,
Few words that are mine,
Yet they belong to you,
You inspire them, you let me believe they are real; let me believe they are mine.

Few moments for you,
A little part of my life,
Yet they belong to you,
You live inside me, you make me cry you make me smile, make me live life.

All I give is just a little of mine, I don’t have too much to share.
All I can give is a little of mine, the little I Only have.

Fewer the words,
And I know you’ll still understand,
Words that our mine,
For you a gift that isn’t expensive isn’t beautiful which doesn’t shine.

Fewer the moments,
So that you could treasure them….

Treasure the Only reason I’m alive.

UnSeen Beauty.

Well was asked to write a poem in 15mins in class.
I think i was in a romantic mood sort off , so this is the piece i wrote....
its called

UnSeen Beauty.


HE LOOKED AT ME AND SAID,
"DONT YOU SENSE, THE LOVE IN THE AIR
THE BIRDS THAT CHANT, GLORIOUS SONGS OF CARE,
THE BEAUTIFUL, ENTRANCING, SOOTHING BREEZE,
THE BEAUTY AROUND, WHICH WILL OUR HEARTS PLEASE"

"DONT YOU SEE? DONT YOU HEAR?
THE GOLDEN SKY, THE GREEN WHICH WHISPERS?"

I WIND MY ARM AROUND HIS NECK,
PULL HIM CLOSE,
WHILE HE LOOKS BACK
SOMETHING TOLD HIM, I FELT WHAT HE FELT.

WRONG!!

I TOLD HIM,
"I KNOW WHAT CAN SET YOU RIGHT,
WHISKEY ON THE ROCKS AND WE SHALL SMOKE THE PIPE.
THEN YOU WILL LOOK AROUND AND SEE,
WHAT'S BEAUTIOUS.....

ITS JUST YOU AND ME"

Simple GoodBye.

I need you to know….that this wont last.

The times we’ve spent won’t come back.

I’m not here forever you see,

Neither are you or any of this.

What we had is too dear to be forgotten,

In you’re memory it’s engraved.

I won’t be in your future that’s true.

But the past was a future we dreamt.

I’m leaving you here, for you to live on.

Cause I know without me you’ll be strong.

And as I go I promise you.

Whenever you need me,

I’m IN you.

In YOU i find.

THERE IT IS WHERE LOVE PREVAILS,
IN THE HEARTS OF THOSE HOMES DEPRIVED,
AMONG THOSE SADDEN SMILES,
AND YET HOPE IN THOSE TWINKLING EYES.

THERE IT IS WHERE LOVE PREVAILS,
AMIDST THE PRAYERS OF THOSE WHO HAVE LOST,
LOST THEIR LOVE.THEIR FAMILY , FRIENDS,
AND YET PRAY WITH REVERENCE
BELIEVING IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST.

YES THERE IT IS AND NOT IN THE LIVING,
NOT IN THE PLEASURES OF MAN.
IT IS IN THE HEARTS OF ALL WHO CHOOSE,
TO LOVE SELFLESSLY AND NOT EXPECT IN
RETURN.

NO BITTERNESS TO SHOW,
NO REVENGE, NOR HATE,
NOR FEELING OF BEING NOT-LOVED,
ALL THAT THEY HAVE IS THE
STRENGTH OF THE ALMIGHTY
AND THE COURAGE OF A BROKEN HEART.

Those few words, writtten as a child

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT I PLAYED IN YOUR ARMS
AND KISSED YOUR COARSE CHEEKS WITH MY TENDER LIPS.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT YOU TOOK ME ALONG,
TO THE MOST RESPLENDENT PLACES
AND TURNED THE WORST DAYS INTO FUN AND FROLIC.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
YOU SAT UP HOT, SUNNY NOONS
TAKING DELIGHT IN WATCHING ME PLAY.

ALL SEEMS LIKE JUST YESTERDAY.....


SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT I WAS KISSED ON MY FOREHEAD
"GOODNIGHT".

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
I JIVED WITH YOU
HOURS ON END.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
BUT ITS BEEN MORE THAN A YEAR
AND IVE COME A LONG WAY,

AND AS I BROOD OVER NOT HAVING YOU AROUND....
I MISS YOU ON MY CRAPPIEST, LOUSIEST DAYS,

WANTING TO BE KISSED.....
" GOODNIGHT" AS I LAY,

SADDENING IT IS WITHOUT YOU TO
DANCE AND SWAY,

MISS YOUR PRESENCE.......
EACH MOMENT
OF EVERY DAY..............

WITHIN!!

WHAT CROSSES MY MIND,
WHAT STAYS BEHIND,
SEEPS THROUGH,
LIKE THE DEEP OF THE NIGHT.

WHAT CROSSES MY MIND,
WHAT STAYS BEHIND,
IS FOR ME TO CHOOSE....
WHILE THE ANSWER LIES
WITHIN THE COL....
