MISTY EYES.

When I look

In your eyes,

It takes me

To my past

Long forgotten.

Giving me

Misty eyes.

So beautiful

Eyes and tresses.

I thought

You were mine,

Time has passed

I am fine.

If I say,

I still want you

I still love you

I think of you,

I'd be lying.

I'm happy

You aren't here

To ruin

My life.

You were only,

A maverick

A chameleon

A shadow

A lie.

YOUR SONG.

You got

Cheeks so soft

So longing

For a kiss.

Your wild tresses,

Waiting impatiently

To be touched.

That great body

Waiting

To be caressed

To be hugged.

The sun

Waiting,

To shower

It's light

Giving warmth

Giving love

To your body.

I want to play,

With your nose

With your lips

With your locks.

I want to hold

You for evermore.

REASON TO LIVE.

I found

A reason

For living

In this world.

To give meaning

To things

Around us.

To make order

Out of chaos.

So suffering

In this world.

Hate engulfing

Our world.

It's time

To bring

Some love.

O' Salvation

Please come

To brighten

Our world.

I know

This world

Needs love

From me and you.

Let's make

Our world

Worth living.

WHY.

Tell me,

Why you cry

Why you suffer

Why these tears

Flooding your eyes.

What's wrong sugar

Please tell me.

Please share

All your hurt,

You will feel

So good.

I'll make it

Go away

With my kiss

With my embrace.

All you ever need,

Is some love

To heal

Your broken heart.

Hey bunny,

Let's start again

To live

A happy life,

In a place

So full of love.

DREAMS OF YESTERDAY.

Dreams of yesterday

Are long gone.

Impressions remain,

Just like footprints

Of moments

Of memories.

They're a relic,

No use to me

Just a scar

In the horizon,

Of memories

Long gone.

Some might say,

Hold on to them.

I say,

Throw them away

In the room

Filled with pictures

Of moments gone

And hide the keys.

I have no room

For dreams of yesterday.

I want to cherish

I want to enjoy

What I have

In front of me.

LOVE AWAITS.

I know

Love awaits,

Somewhere

In this world.

I have to find

Where it rests,

In this garden

Of my life.

I know

You hid it

For me to find.

I know

It's just for me

It's evergreen

It's radiant.

I know

I will find it

I will touch it

I will kiss it.

I know

You are living

Somewhere

In this world.

All I need

Is to find you.

THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.

The circle of life,

Is revolving baby

Around me and you.

This circle is great

So beautiful.

I am standing here,

Where are you?

Send me a signal

Just tell me honey

You are fine.

I am drinking

Some apple juice

Just thinking how

We drank together.

We used to be one

Under the light

Of the sun

Of the moon.

O' My sweet muffin

We used to chat

For hours

Talked and laughed.

Darling why

You left

On a rainy day

Without even

Saying goodbye.

Now I wonder

Why you left

We were great sugar

Please come back.

BEAUTY.

Beauty lives,

Outside my door

Giving pleasure

To my eyes.

Making my days

So beautiful

So eventful.

Giving respite,

To my heart

To my soul.

The trees

Swaying,

The birds

Chirping merrily.

The world

Laughs and smiles

So happiness

So respite

Away from worries.

Worries

Due to thoughts

About things

Not so important.

These moments

Are ablaze

In my mind

Like bush fire.

One day

Respite

Will roam again.

MY DREAM.

In my dream,

I saw you

Lying

On the floor.

Your eyes

Your lips,

Smiling at me.

That lovely smile,

Grew on me

Blew me away.

Your body

Came near

Held me.

Such love

I'd never felt

Warm kiss

Warm touch.

Your hair

So soft

They're a cocoon

Made for me.

I just wish

I was a sparrow

I could live

I could chirp

In that cocoon

Beside you.

Your sweet smile

Told me

Everything

Would be fine.

WORLD.

I'm just sitting

On my chair

Just thinking,

Of my life.

I feel like

  My life

Is on rent.

The world is,

On my case.

Everything

I have

I touch

Is not mine.

The world,

Breaths freely

With ownership

Of their lives.

I ask myself

Which thing

Is truly mine

Apart from

My name

My identity?

O' World

You're so cruel

Just look here

What you did.

What did I do

To deserve

This from you?

TREACHERY.

The world lives

On the ledge

Of the mountain

Of treachery.

Living under

The shroud

Of fear

Of distrust.

The ever-present

Danger nowadays

Is it might

Go down

The ledge

And die.

The world

Wants to know

About the players

Who

Brought it down

To the depths

Of utter ruin

Of chaos

Of anarchy.

One should fear

One should watch

Anarchy,

And

Bring it down.

I LOVE YOU.

I want to say

What I ever

Wanted to say,

Is that

I love you

I adore you

I care for you.

You are what

I always wanted.

I don't know

How to say

What I feel,

You are

So dear

So near

To me,

Like a doll

To a child,

Like dawn

To a new day.

I want you

In my arms

Every day.

I want to

Grow old

With you.

  YOUR MANE.

The feeling

Of your

Great mane,

Was so great

Like silk

Falling

On my face.

Taking over

My mind

My senses,

And blowing

My mind.

A treat

For my senses

Giving me

Pleasure,

Just touching

Your twists.

A great feeling

For me,

Just playing

With your mane.

Your mane

Kissing me

Tantalizing

And embracing

My body

And every time

Telling me

You will

Be there.

Such a lie

You weren't there.

BEAUTIFUL EYES.

You

Set me up

On fire

When you look

At me

With those

Beautiful eyes.

They are

Full of life

So playful

Calling me

To look

At them,

To get lost

In them.

Sending electricity,

In my body.

Changing my world

In a way

I didn't knew.

Those beautiful eyes

Of yours

Changed

My world

And me

Just like that.

I want to gaze

In them

For evermore.

BOY LONG GONE.

Once

I used to wait

For you,

Rain or sunshine

Night or day.

I sang songs,

About you.

It's my past

I'm not someone,

You know.

That boy

Is long gone

Away from you.

Not interested,

In your memories,

In your words

In your touch.

No room

For them

Take then away

Before

I throw them

Out my door.

You lied,

Your words

Were a trap.

Now

I know better,

Than to stumble

Upon your trap.

TEA.

A mug of tea

Is in my hand.

Just wondering

How things

Might have been

Hadn't

I met you.

Would it

Be good

Be bad.

We become,

What

Our life's

Experiences

Moments

Chances

Dreams

Make us.

I'm enjoying

Every sip

Going

In my mouth.

Everything

That happens

Has a reason.

MY SUGAR.

May I call you

May I ask you

Where are you

My baby

My sugar?

It's been

Quite long,

Since we met.

All I want,

Is to sit

Beside you

And tell you

I love you

I want you

On my lap,

Hold and kiss

Your face

Your neck

Your arms.

It's been

Way too long,

Since we held

Each other.

I just miss,

The way

You kissed me

You hugged me

Come back sugar.

COME ON.

Come on,

My sweetheart

Be a good girl

And play

With me

And go out

with me.

The light

In my room,

Gets dim

When

You're not here

With me.

Where are you?

You hang out

With

Your girlfriends.

Please baby

Come on,

Give me

Some time

Some emotion

Some sweetness.

Please come on,

Brighten my room

Brighten my life

With your smile

With your kiss

With your mane

Touching

Your ivory body.

THE SPICE.

My dear

You are

The spice

In my life,

Without you

Life is bland.

Come

And spice up

Me

And my life.

Make my life

Delicious

Like a pie.

You smell

So good darling,

Your body

Your hair

Are like sugar

Made for me.

Your touch

Your taste

Your feeling

So beautiful

So delicious

Like a pie

Coming out of

An oven,

Calling everyone

To the table.

I want

To be there

With you.

SONG OF LIFE.

Sometimes,

I feel

I know you

In this life

At other times,

I feel

I knew you

In another life.

At times

It is hard

To differentiate,

Between

This life

And

That life.

Things

Get complicated,

I want them

To be simple.

Things

Aren't always

What they seem.

You understand

The importance

Of life,

When you deal

With what

Life

Throws at you.

PAST.

You're gorgeous

I love you,

This

I can't deny.

I loved

All the games,

You played

In the past.

Sometimes

We said

We were right

We were wrong

My darling,

Life has

Many grey areas.

Not everything

In our lives

Is as simple

As black and white

As right and wrong.

A world of things

Is existing,

Apart from

What we see

In front of

Our eyes.

LEARN.

When will you

Learn

To stay away.

Just give people

Some room

To live,

And respect

Their privacy.

You are

A nice girl

I am sorry

I scolded you,

Honey don't cry

My dear bunny.

Sometimes

You do things

That take me,

Over the edge

Over the roof.

You're so sweet

You're so cute.

I want to

Hold you,

I want you

On my lap,

Till this world

Fades away

And only

Our kisses

And

Warm embraces

Remain.

LESSONS OF LIFE.

Lessons of life

Have taught me

To see things

Positively.

To see

A glass

Half full

Rather than

Half empty.

The way

To lead

A happy life,

Is to learn

To stay

Happy

No matter

What life

Throws

At you.

Sometimes

Life is funny

At other times

It is strange.

Beauty of life

Lies in

These changes

This diversity.

IMPRISONED.

You are

Imprisoned

In my mind.

You are

A slave

In my mind.

You can't

Come out,

Even if

      You want to.

You are

Like this

Because of

What you did

To me.

You've reaped

What

You've sown.

Your punishment

Is to live,

To bang

Your head

And watch

Your life perish

Before

Your eyes.

You aren't

Forgiven.

A DREAM.

Sometimes

I think,

Life is

But a dream.

Not everything

Is what

It seems.

One has

To use,

Vision

Perspective

Analysis,

To discern

Right

From wrong.

To know,

What is right

What is wrong

For us.

We have

To use,

Our analysis

Our judgement,

To do

What is right

For us.
