The end unreachable

winning a war i've never learnt
its one-third life getting over..

getting at par i've everytime dreamt
its second by second pulling closer

using my fingers i've always burnt
its drop by drop getting away

cracking my head i've left unused
its debasing night after day

gauging my drift i'm here amused
what count is this U-turn

whisking the surroundings that sound diffused
what is the interpretation

trying trying trying as i pretend to do
what draws me to the center of a twister

vying for the aura i ought to woo
what slips in the end by a whisker

dying to pen the thoughts I want to poo
that sway from here to there

itching to bridle those awry clouds
I fear I'll give up in my chair..

What's there missing?

Out of the way,
as I've always been;
I tried to figure out what

is there to delay,
to call upon me;
and pull me back to the naught.

I pretend to be gay,
show my outer sheen
and tell them so much I've got;

but like always
can't bear the gleam;
I retire to the familiar drought.

No! I got in a tray
that relinquished cream
that people like me besaught.

but its well okay
that this goes under a veil,
in the world of my-made thoughts.

Was it the nay
in my early teens
that I now strive for my slot?

or is there lay
the basic dream
of each one for the closest shot.

So what's that which is grey
which I am keen
for adding it to my lot;

for this I should shay
to the inconspicuous gene
which has made my blood un-clot.

Well first to say
this thing in green
should be manouvered, getting out of the cot?

or will it play
with my broken zeal
and emerge from ice to the hot..

till then I pay
with my thoughts in teal,
and prevent myself from getting caught;

and lie in the hay,
I strike my deal;
what part of work I've got.

for coming to the day
that I dream:
I'll pull the lotus out of the rot.

When my wishes will slay
with a laser beam
and this poem will end in one dot..

Waiting..in cipher

Loving the way I feel
far apart from her;
choosing this way to seal
all that which can cause a litter.

In a form, its good;
I now worship her;
the idol which was under the hood
is now far more dear.

Pulling me with all the strength,
so that I'm on the verge
of tear and bend;
but I endure.

What do you want?
Why do you stare from far?
As I want to fade and faint
under the after-blues of my internal war.

My new life
seems a drudgery;
and you stick to me
as if I'm a lump of jaggery.

Waiting for the day
when the skies will clear;
hoping for this dismay
to fend off all fear.

And I land
into a cozy fur
of cool sand
with just her and cipher..

Why should I?

Why should I love you?
A worthless child-I feel I am.
Craving for me from inside, as you are-
so that I embrace you?

Why should I despise you?
The sweetness of your voice
encapsulates me; you mock at me-
a reason to loath you?

Don`t look into my eyes.
The dryness alienates me.
Your constrained eyeballs say
a different story, I surmise..

Walking with you should I avoid?
The pace frustrates me.
Your attempts to match my steps-
will this be counted as a void?

Not a thing I should utter upon.
You don`t deserve to be talked to.
Is this the thing
that prompts you to go on and on?

Lying under the shadow of yours,
without comfort, in your fledgling hands.
A little grass over my locks
is a sign of a quiescent converse?

You moved into me; why?
I am all in pain.
Did you lift me
from a pit to the sky?

The moments to cherish..

The ways, on which we've been;
The roads, which we crossed;
The lanes, in which we were lost;

Etched forever-
a stone souvenir.

The paths, on which we walked;
The grass, on which we strolled;
The boulevards, which we preened;

Perfectly figure,
in my mind's matter.

The walls, on which we leaned;
The windows, through which we squinted;
The stones, which we chaired;

So tight a capture,
by the ropes of desire.

The saucers, which we shared;
The servings, which we had;
The cup, together we held;

A deja-vu will fire,
in the life after..

The incenses, which we sensed;
The souls, through which we steered;
The melodies, crossing our four ears;

Comes real that laughter;
Yes, we're again here!

The attires, which we donned;
The words, which we uttered;
The weather, through which we sailed;

It's crystal clear;
I'm an avid dreamer!

The sunsets, which we witnessed;
The solitude, which we deliberated;
The fly-catcher, the silence which it broke;

Preserved with care,
to be handed over to the ulterior.

The gazes, which our eyes exchanged;
The touch, which drew us closer;
The warmth, which we created;

I'm always there;
Hope you don't flicker..

Joy - for the first time..

           drowned in my sleep, 
I got up at night;
          began recalling, 
What cooked up in the day.

           just washed by rain,
The day of mild winter;
          a little of sun;
The spray of cool breeze.

          an unknown force, 
Pulling me hard;
          a shivery feeling, 
Culling me slowly.

          out of the bed, 
I knew what to do;
          like a bird, 
I flew out in the sky;

           unable to figure out 
How correct i was;
          with doubts hanging; 
How tough it was..

          fixed in following 
My heart's voice;
           i waited to open 
My crossed fingers.

          and when it came, 
It was the loveliest;
           none of my dreams matched; 
It was the wildest!

          the smile followed; 
Rain in every corner;
          my thoughts gone awry; 
Pain left nowhere.

           the most special moment; 
The epitomy of joy;
          was in a bosom i slept; 
The summary of death?

          the death i know; 
It's a prolonged agony.
           but now look at me; 
It's a wicked desire!

           tasting love 
For the first time;
           i was craving 
For the next dose.

          will this last? 
Will this be no longer?
          loser as i have been; 
Will this change something?

The new day.........

Today began
a new chapter
this day came
with a new laughter

Is this a rain
or I rode a roller coaster
or a joy in wain
and night forever..

or is this a gain
broad day after a long winter
that came as an airplane
a sort of a breather

the horses of my brain
run helter skelter
or should they follow a lane
like clouds in summer?

the day just slain
leads me to wonder
whether the time again
will lead me to falter

difficult to be sane
and all awake after
and catch this train
going faster and faster

I think of all the drains
to flush out my mind sugar
as I don't want the pain
to get to me any further

Is this a game
or a christmas shower
or whether a dead flame
is to catch a fire

Are you making me tame
to obey your order
or you've got into a chain
with me at the center?

We two are same 
or do we differ;
or can I make you lame
and dance to my trigger?

Or you've got the shell
at the other side of the river
not letting you sail
and makes you wither..

Whomever to blame
whatever the pressure
let me tell you plain
that past is not a repeater

gone is that name
that litter clear
which got you to claim:
the night isn't over

Short by the pen
ditched by the paper
but piped to you man
the crux and the flavour

hope you frame
hope you figure
your real disdain
was just a stirrer:

and hope to see you again
with a renewed vigour
at least on the outer cane
which is your attire............

A little closer?

The laws of physics
and the facts of matter
got failing for me
since the day I saw her..

Everything is bright
and night so dear;
Songs interest me
now more than ever

Those talking eyes
with a sprinkle of glitter;
appears as if
the sea is so near

and a blary black
and wet strand of hair
that comes in between;
this is not fair! :-(

My heart boils
in the wetness of a tear
My love
please come some closer?

I pray to God
if she were here
in a deep sleep
with her head on my shoulder

I'm undecided,
to touch or stare;
or to get the time
freeze then and there

Rosy lips
with a glossy flare
and these pinkish cheeks
no crystal so clear

tempt me
and my hand changes gear
to explore and see
is this real or a mirror

but wait!
this'll surely litter
this masterpiece-
a moon without one wear..

Coming out of it
with a grin of solitaire
cherishing the dream
of open eyes and ear

But for one thing
I definitely want to cheer:
the lasting memories
of her mesmerizing glare........

Why the hell?? :(

I was mowed
falling in emptiness

I was dumb
an air of thoughtlessness

I was rocked
as if I jumped from the terrace

I was shocked
she just rejected me!

The clock ticked
once in ten seconds

My spine chilled
it really happened!

My heart cried
she got farther and farther

I was horrified
a love song played in the corner

I was tired
the limbs breaking down

My intestines fired
a lava flowed within

Salt of my eyes
came melting down

and spin of my head
though I wasn't drunk

Till was it heard
and the tape rewinded

I was pleased
it was my alarm clock!


That one night.......

Once upon a time
I woke up at night
all those jittery dreams
vanished from my sight

found myself sitting
staring wide
making sense of that
fiery respite

i wanted some water
so stood upright
washed my veins
with a binge of delight

don't know where the drowse
got buried inside
and a magnet in the balcony
pulled me with all its might.

With the roundness of moon
and the dark spots inside
the stars encircling
are no less white.

I pondered over
the percentage of light
and wondered over
why all this is so bright!

The calm cool breeze
offered me a ride
but I could just imagine
me to be a kite

flying over the town
facing down upside
till a distant fly-catcher
became my eye-ball-guide

a security man
and his bamboo strike
whom hell anyone cares
awoke upright

this all is so peace
this all is so light
against the day-
an ongoing fight

the day-exclaimed my mind
the next one should be right
but that has a condition
a nice nap tonight

So time to bid bye
to this rare octernal slide
as "early to bed and early to rise
makes a man healthy wealthy and wise"!
