You

You are the smile on my face

You are my beautiful days

You are the curtain swaying in wind

You are the fragrance of summer in my mind

The mist on the ocean is you

The red in the rose is you

The wrinkles on my bed is you

The maroon on my lips is you

You are the golden eyes under the sun

You are the green grass on my shirt

You are the bed-sheet on my chest

You are the shoulder on which I rest

The pillows on sofa is you

The pictures on the wall is you

The flower vase with lilies is you

The hammock in the balcony is you

You are the air I breathe

You are the dreams I saw at night

You are the light when I am low

You are the love I did not know

And now that I have found you, I am all you.

Like a song in repeat

We yell we fight, We make up, We hug tight.

At times we smile and at times we cry

We collect these moments in a jar

And seal it up tight.

Only to come back to it,

Just like a song in repeat.

But each time we yell and each time we fight

We grow close to each other.

I don’t know how and I find it hard to explain

But feels like we fall in love all over again.

Slip Away into the Night

Sometimes morning is not just about waking up

It’s an ordeal, it’s a nightmare.

Just like the one,  where you wake up and find yourself

In the middle of an ocean.

Fighting for each breath, you give out SOS, but its all in vain.

There is no savior, you are on your own

There is this voice that resonates in your head

But to let it out, you are too scared.

You don’t want to be called crazy,

There is already enough name tags you hold.

All you want to do is slip away in to the night.

You don’t understand, why do you have to get up.

Sun tries hard to pull you out of the bed

But you don’t want to get up when your brain is dead.

You stare outside the window for hours and hours

And see these people passing by:  some strangers some known.

You try to figure out, if they feel the same

Or this “dead-brain” is only your thing to claim.

And you sit with your knees touching your heart

Tucked in bed sheet, feeling invisible to time

You wait patiently, for each hour to pass.

And time mocks you on your face.

Take its sweet time, travels in its own pace.

Sail on this River

I hope you fight till darkness turns to light

Have a sense to stand out wrong from right

And when the storm comes, you don’t avoid

But you go out and dance till it dies

I hope the child in you lives forever

You find your friends and play out the sadness together

And when its time to say goodbye, you say your prayers

Wish them happiness and sail on the river

I hope you appreciate your presence in this world

Treat everyone with love and respect

Remember, kindness and sympathy is what brings joy

Money is temporary , just a scam- a ploy

I am in heaven

You came into my dreams, the night I lay asleep

On your heart and your arms

Wrapped around me

You whispered your love, into my ears

And I opened my eyes , to find myself in heaven

Save the Superman

I was flying up high

Across the seven seas and countless skies

 

Hoping one day the roles would change

And once, just for once I am not saving

But I am saved.

Under this red cape is a strong heart

But am as vulnerable as you are

I am there for you I have always been

But no one has been there

 when it was time to save me

Broken Arrow

The moment you left me I felt broken from that moment on.

I looked for you all around, but tired I fell on my face

only to kiss the ground.

I was with you all along, took part in your battles

be it dusk, be it dawn.

Some of those battles were my own, where I struggled hard

to stay along.

I did not complain about those struggles of mine

and held on tight to the string.

Knowing you held me tight in your fingertips, I felt I belonged to you

I was safe and I was part of you.

But with no time lapse you released me, I did not want to

but you let me go.

And now broken I lay down on the ground

counting my last breath, I think of the moments

when you held me and touched me

told me I was your best bet.

Before It is too late

When I say, I love you

Don’t shrug me off

like you always do.

Don’t question my love for you

when we fight and argue.

It is no different than the one

I say when I make love to you.

There is no scale to measure it

but I’ll tell you one thing

this is the only anchor in our relationship.

So hold on to it.

It would sail us through times

we don’t wanna see.

And believe me, trust me

before it is too late

and there is nothing else

left for us to say.

Ecatsay

Each day I see you

Like I haven’t seen you before

You look new to me

From head to toe

The eyes, the lips

They shine and glow

When sun looks at them

Through our bedroom window

You wake up and pull your hair back

Take the rubber band of your wrist

 and tie me a pony

I lay on my back throughout this magic

Only to wake up to your kiss

The shine transfers into me

And I start my day  with ecstasy

Lost in your eyes

You are the only one who knows

The way it sounds

When I say I love you

while we stay awake

Under the stars every night

This love lead me to you

And I take you with me

To the place I have always known

The waterfalls shine under moonlight

With stars above and stars below

The fireflies fly across

And we sleep together arm in arm

Lost into each others eyes

We sleep forever till moon stops to shine
