Your magical absence...

Searching for your presence, my eyes get weary.
Waiting for your hug, my arms get fidgety.
I close my eyes to stop this search.
I find you there in every thought.
Yes its lovely, yes its magical.
See, even "missing you" is a beautiful thought!

Gotta ticket to ride...

A streak of light flashed and brightened my face
The day ushered in an epoch of love and life
Sunshine had taken an unspoken vow
With you beside me every day is a beautiful ride!

Got a free ticket to ride,a ride which just started
Scared I am, confused I am, but yes, happy I am!
Expectations, promises, all in a package it came
Contentment, euphoria, is what it just gave.

Don't care about its end, don't care what it'll bring
I have started this journey, I give credence to this claim
Can just cherish each moment, can just dream about them
Can aver to be the luckiest star who owns this ticket to ride!

My Darling Angel…

I kept gazing at the sky, hoping to feel a bit bright
I found my thoughts running, chasing you without any right.
Everything felt nice everything had a shine.
For you are my angel with a halo in disguise!

Every road which I take now, every path which I follow
Each has a new hope, a promise that is not hollow.
The storm, the thunder, even the blazing sun
Can’t even dare to harm me as I have my angel’s hug!

Don’t leave me alone, don’t ever say “now you go alone”
Don’t take away that hug, its warmth and its love.
For I need you my angel, I need you by my side
My darling angel who gave shine to my life!

A walk on the rainbow…

A knock on the door of heaven, clouds peeped through the window
My smile was the special visitor, hugging all colours right at the door.
How could rainbow turn away, how could it be mean to say “go away”
For the guest was my smile, which had once gone far away.

Colours touched my life, brightened my day and warmed my night
Blue had promise, red had love, white had peace and yellow trust
Nothing more I could ask for, there was nothing more I could think on
For I was in the dream-land with happiness as my sole companion

That smirk on my face, that glint in my eyes
That smile on my face those dreams in my eyes
Yes you brought them all and happiness to top it all
Yes you brought all those gifts, I wanted since long
See, there am again on cloud number nine
You made me walk on the rainbow and touch the sky!

Don't hold yourself back....

I just realized its been a long time that I have written something. I was wishing to write this since a long time but yesterday after completing the book "Sam's letters to Jennifer" (by James Patterson) I thought I have to pen this down now. A very nice and touching novel! I never knew I can like romantic novels too. One truth that we all know but I realized again is that "Love never dies", yes we all have to believe on this sooner or later. Another nice verse I read here was- "Whether it is as fleeting as the sun-kissed days of summer or lasts nearly a lifetime, love is always worth it". How true! I guess every soul will agree with this. The book said so nicely about finding true love, finding a soul mate, finding happiness and more importantly it asked not to "hold back".
I have seen this many times, when people fall out of a relationship they get into this negative loop as if this was the last thing on earth. Don't think me to be an over practical or an over confident bitch ;-). I myself have experienced this so I know the exact feeling. But you know what, the biggest mistake what we do is we think its wrong to fall in love again. We start assuming that if we fall in love again it'll be like we have forgotten someone whom we loved in the past pretty easily. That’s not the case. We never forget our past, only variation is the thought about our past, or rather our perception towards it. Our past always reminds us that it had happened as we were a part of it, but what we should do is just pass a smile and move on! Life cannot end this way, brooding and brooding more about our past. We have to find new avenues to our happiness! And this will happen only when we decide not to hold our feelings back. Live life for a day and live it fully till you can't keep your eyes open any longer.I have I think written mostly about being happy. Even when I start off with a sad poem I end up with some positive note. But I realized I was not doing that in real life. I am the one who is holding me back from smiling and making myself happy. SO, now I have decided that I'll just keep trying more and more and will definitely be able to implement what I preached here today. :-)
Worse things can happen, you can lose the very single person around whom your life revolves but that doesn't mean your life has no right to revolve anymore! he he... That actually sounded funny! Anyways jokes apart what I just want to say in short is "Move ON". Search for your happiness and just don't hold yourself up, it’s never going to work! Believe in yourself, be good to others and just be happy. One of my friends always passes this stupid dialogue across "Ja simran jee le apni zindagi" (obviously stolen from a famous Bollywood flick) ;-).. But this applies to all of you reading this "Live your life, don't hold yourself back!”

Don’t be so mean to me…

How often have you felt bad or got hurt due to someone’s unpleasant attitude or insensitive behavior? I am sure this is mostly the reason for many of us being upset or sad. Kindness is something that we all should excel at. But sadly this is something that we tend to forget. We forget being kind and nice, we forget being empathetic, forget passing that smile as a gesture, forget behaving nicely to someone who is unaware that our mood is not fine, we just forget being amiable! In our kind of daily routine we even fall short of time in passing just a smile to an acquaintance or reply to a friend’s sms on time or even reply to someone over chat and just mention that “I am busy”.

How many times have you felt good when your friends or family has shown care towards you? Always, right? So, when it’s your turn to show that why do you just ignore it or tend not to think about it!?
Someone had once taught me about empathy but very sadly that person himself lacks empathy and that too to a great extent! I have seen this many a times that when people need to get something done or are very busy and require to shell out some work to the other person, they bombard that person with emails of “please”, “sorry” and “thank you”! But if someone is ill or some basic kind words are required, the person is lost then, he doesn’t know you any more! Strange indeed but this is what happens. May be we don’t behave in such an insensitive manner intentionally but we need to realize that we do it and that it’s wrong!
How long does it take to enquire about someone’s health? Or how long does it take to pass a smile or just say “get well soon” or may be reply to someone’s sms on time? It’s just that we tend to ignore doing such gestures, sometimes deliberately, sometimes unknowingly and sometimes just prioritizing them low in the list.

It’s difficult to realize this; it’s even more difficult to accept that you are at fault! Even though I am writing about this, I don’t claim I am perfect at this or that I have always been nice and kind to others. It’s just that I have realized its importance and have felt getting hurt and may be me talking about it makes someone else realize this as well! :)
Insensitivity hurts and that too if it’s coming from someone who means at least a little, it hurts even more! So, don’t be a reason for someone else’s sadness rather try and be that extra effect for someone’s smile :-)

They won the battle…

I saw the soil getting drenched by rain
I felt the rain drops trickling down my face
Was it the rains that I was enjoying?
Or was it the pain that I was disguising

Days turned into months, months will turn into a year
But when will I let go this fear?!
The fear of being alone, the fear of that pain once more
The fear that never goes, the fear that only grows!

Had never thought I’ll miss someone so much
Had never thought I’ll have to think so much
Being happy requires a lot of endeavor
A fake smile was the result of that struggle

Every new day starts with a resolution
A resolution to smile with full determination!
He gave me strength in thousand ways
He gave me courage to face the day
He gave me all this even being away
I am only left to say “why did you go away”?!

My life seems to be a vicious circle
Where sadness comes back winning the battle
Tears are what I now cherish,
Coz they bring back memories I can still cherish

Yes you won, you won the battle
Pain is what you gave me as a present
There I sit at the corner of my bed
Watching the rain and feeling the pain.
My days passed by giving me a wicked smile
They won the battle by snatching my smile!
