!!! Renaissance !!!

Emotions so alive in me

Had wandered paths of thorn n dust

Have been slaughtered and shunned

Searching for the destination undefined

Waiting for breezes to calm the wounds

Asked him hundred times for the showdown

Every time he said love is the only cure

Moment I stopped to weigh his words

I saw that I am standing at your door

Stunned as I was I couldn't move,

We understood each others emotional tour
The wait was too long, it has ruptured our soul

Now I dont look at windows every dawn

Now I don't look for your sight in the crowd

Now I have you and you have me

With and Within each other
We were from two different worlds
Unrelated to everyone who exist in it
Came together to make our own world

As we dwell in Renaissance!!!

!!! When Broken !!!

 

Your feelings as precious as diamonds

Your laughter like jingle bells

I will keep it in my heart

Till the diamonds lose its shine

And the bells loses its Chime

Your words like a musical note

Your sound like a nightingales’ charm

I will keep it in my heart

Till the music stops

And the charm is lost

Your love like a midnight sun

Your caress like a breeze on the cotton bun

I will keep it in my heart

Till the eclipse struck

And the storm breaks my luck

Your memories having every season

Waiting for you without any reason

I will keep it all cherished in my heart

Till the Season fades away

And rational reasons get in way

 

Our essence lost in the sands of time

As my heart laments for the broken charm & chime

How long will I keep it in my heart?

Sand castles once broken couldn’t be formed again

Heart bonds once broken, couldn't be tied again.

!!! Loneliness : My Constant Companion !!!

As I stare outside my window at night
Your memories crawl through the light

As I walk aimlessly on a silent street
My ears are filled with our fighting screams

As my hand tap on my office keyboard
My eyes recalls all the E-mails & SMS we wrote

As I converse casually with my friends and colleagues
All I can hear is our endless conversations & laughing fits

As I eat, talk, laugh and try to be attentive
No one knows pretense & lies is my native

I drank myself to the ruthless night
To stop myself from praying for that one sight

As I constantly surround myself with people
Loneliness plunges in my heart deeper & deeper

As I moved towards his loving care and inviting eyes
Knife of comparisons compels all efforts to die

I tried to forget you in vain
As your love flows through my veins

Wherever I stare outside my window at night
Your memories come crawling through the light

!!! If You Can't Mend a Broken Heart !!!

Never too late to come out of the night....
Never too late to welcome the moonlight....
Never too late to realize your sunshine....
Never too late to realize what 'is' mine....
Never too late to break all illusions apart....
Never too late to shun the broken heart ...!!!

!!! Let me Fly !!!

Freedom is what I seek
When I was with you
I thought I loved you
You thought I surrendered
Bonded in the ties
Of whats wrong & Whats right

Freedom is what I seek
When I was with you
I thought I am happy
Never realizing its transitory

Welling up of Suffocation
As we fall short of Communication
Going away or letting you go
Is not "something" I would like to think
But Freedom is "something" that I seek

Now living without you
I think I am happy
But I am still suffocated
Stranded on the place we parted
You vanished in a blink
But I was disappointed with my feets
As Freedom is what I seek!!

!!! Friendship That I Dreamt !!!

Call me a Dreamer...
But my Dreams are my Identity
I Dream of a Relationship so Pure
I Dream of Someone I adore

Call me a Dreamer...
But my Dreams are my Identity
I Dream of a Friend so Wonderful
I Dream of Friendship so Colourful

Call me a Dreamer...
But my Dreams are my Identity
I Dream of Loving
I Dream of Sharing

Call me a Dreamer...
But my Dreams are my Identity

"I do not dream of a relationship spend under your Surveillance
 I beg your pardon but I was never Taught the meaning of Convenience"

!!! Night of Love !!!

That was the night of love…..
When you walked away….
I was standing there praying
That you will look back….
But you never bothered to do so.
I was standing there praying
That I could see the love in u that lacked…
But you never bothered to show so.
That was the night of the judgment of my life…
When you walked away….
We fought, we shouted, we screamed.
You were upset…
But I was happy…
After ages I had your full attention….
That was the night of beginnings of all endings…
When you walked away..
Why did u left me behind..
How could you leave me behind…
When I was your mornings..
Your nights..
Your heart..
Your life….
But you never understood…
You were my soul….
Every possible reason for me to live….
That was the night ….I died..
The very night you walked away..
You simply walked away…
And with your every step which moved away from me…
You erased every reason for my life to exist….
