!!! My Love !!!

I opened my eyes
To the beautiful sunshine
Beauty around me doesn’t seems to suffice
Since the day you have become mine.

Rays of sunlight, dimness of moonlight
Dew drops of early morning, countless hours of day light
Falling in love with every thing and everyone
And I thought with this “Love” thing, I am done!

Smiling at myself as I foolishly smile at strangers
Wondering as I experience the “happiness” for the first time
Beauty around me doesn’t seems to suffice
Since the day you have become mine.

I danced all along the way
But I never moved like the way you make me sway
You must have been a shooting star of the past life
As I would have prayed for love in some lonely night

Touching you felt like touching my own soul
With a kiss you made me whole
Losing the sense of where I end and you begin
Your eyes make every ounce of me melt from within

Life doesn’t seem so recherché before
Only with you I feel like taking it’s tour
As you already owe my heart, soul & mind
Ohh !! The beauty around me just doesn’t seems to suffice
Since the very day you have become mine.

"with lots of love for the one it's written for"

The weirdest thing about writing I gathered is that there are times when you don’t realize a thought or a perception that lingers in your mind until and unless you pen it down.

I was remembering the “old” me , The “confident” Me, The “nothing can touch me” Me, The “carefree” Me, The “princess” Me. Oh how much I loved myself back then the strength, the attitude, the courage, the wisdom I use to carry It was an excitement in itself. But looking at me now I can’t even start counting the changes that had occurred in these couple of years, it’s frighting and at the same moment very overwhelming.

I kept every person and every relation at bay, and the moment it cross the line, I use to flip out and put all types of guards up around me. Not even in the most frighting nightmare had I ever thought that putting the slightest bit of my guards down or a slight change in my priorities will flip my world upside down. I have been appreciated, acknowledged, admired, envied upon, played upon, betrayed, lied to, hurt, insulted, humiliated (I am not ashamed of accepting it), laughed on, and what not. Every thing that scared the death out of me has happened to me one by one taking its time to take a depressive toll on me.

And I can’t love myself less for getting out of it sometimes by support and sometimes on my own. And every single thing that has happened to me has changed something in me. Many changes I embraced with open arms and some I am still trying to repress. But what makes me think is – whatever has happened to me will that stop me from doing what I did back then, whatever has happened to me makes me think will I do something differently If given a chance. And I encounter one of the rarest occasions when your heart and brain are in unison as they shout “no” at me.

And again I feel thankful of every single thing that has happened to me so far; I would not lie saying I have loved the journey – NO. But yes I am way less scared of my life now, I am way less scared of emotions or less fearful of “putting myself out there”. Yes I had to suffer a lot to gain such perspective in life, along the way there were times when I lost my self respect voluntarily holding on to the illusions of life but again I would not regret any of it because though I am not completely in Love with me as I use to be.

But I am far more thankful that my actions, situations or circumstances had yet not destroyed my soul. And for that I take a lot of pride – that no matter how many punches life has given you and no matter how many punches you have taken voluntarily, If nothing has touched your soul as if yet, you are still a winner.

Illusions have always been a part of my life. When you see the mountains touching the sky embracing it at its peak with moon sitting on its lap you wonder if you can too sit there with the moon and in that hope you climb mountains after mountains to reach to that peak. And once you do, your vision blurs with the tears of disappointment, you climb heights just to find out the play of the nature to find your moon miles away.

By the time you realise, the illusion you have been fooled with, you are too tired to get down and sitting right where you are and sulking there seems like a better option.

Isn't relationships an illusion too. You get carried away by the initial traces of spring with the half rainbows sprinkling its gentle colour in the sky where it vanishes in the laps of dusty clouds of ephemeral figures, with gentle breeze embracing the Gulmohar trees as it's leaves laugh at their passion and you completely deny the fact that they are just welcoming the heavy turbulent rainfall, which will erase the rainbows and bury the laughing leaves way below the ground.

But knowing all of these things make any amount of difference to the way we perceive illusions after illusions. For a moment you want to stop and wonder whether they are really illusions or is it just the hope to find a yet another season which will stay longer than the last one or perhaps forever.

But seasons change because they are meant to be changed and time changes because it is not meant to stop and people change because they are meant to grow then why cant we expect the relationships to change or rather accept that they will change.

Why still when it actually does change you broke into pieces but you dint break when time ticks away? Why a Major change in the relationship shatter us when we go through major changes all our life with out getting shattered.

Probably because we do change but at the end of the day we are still the same soul, seasons do change but they do even come back, Time moves on because if it wont people and season will be stagnant. But when people change relationship changes & it changes forever, when relationship breaks they are not meant to be repaired and when they are not repaired the broken pieces should not be left lying in your life, just to avoid getting scratched as the wound of the broken relationship will itself take a life time to heal.
