Her

Her

She was a masterpiece in her own way 

Being imperfectly perfect 

Never had I seen a girl like her 

With her tiny quirks and weird slang 

Wonderful she always was 

Trying to help everyone who needed her help 

Leaving her own work aside 

She truly came out of the story books I guess 

Her smile and her coy looks 

Won her hearts 

I remember her vividly 

Ah! God what a memory 

We met in college 

She was dressed as an angel 

That very day I lost my heart to you 

It had been eons since I felt like this 

She made me feel complete 

And her eyes had me mystified

Her words were like music and 

Her smile made go to a new dimension 

As I was lost in my own little world 

I could see the empty chair next to me 

Was this a dream 

Or a story that was meant to be true

Crossroads Of Life

Crossroads Of Life

Life has always been a mystery 

With everything you think of 

Being something it isn't 

A tale in the making or a travesty you wished to avoid 

Let me tell you a story 

Of a person who had it all 

Yet he had nothing 

A life filled with purpose yet incomplete 

He lived his life 

As all the youths did 

Working up ways to reach a zenith which only god can gift 

Yet he had a mind which was one of a kind 

He had an aura that oozed of confidence 

It was like it would be a matter of time when the world would know him 

As fate would have it

Time was not the only thing that changed 

The boy was now the man he wished he was 

With the change now being replaced by checkbooks

Funny how life is when all you have worked for is the money and the power 

But there is something that makes it incomplete 

She was always a support for him 

Pushing him to the limits for him to achieve his dream 

A long lost memory she was to him 

Until that fateful night she appeared in his life again 

He wanted her to have an empire 

A life with the means to live 

She knew it was a mythical place yet she stood by her side 

But as life would have it some stories are left with an abrupt ending 

Today as she leaves 

With her bags in her hand and tears in her eyes 

He is at crossroads of life 

Whether to stop her and crumble his dream or to sit there and let her go.

Love and Other Things

Love and Other Things

The rain outside makes me fall in love 

All over again 

With each drop that kisses my cheeks 

I could only think about your lips pecking my cheeks 

It had been years since we were married 

As fate had made us for one another 

We had liked each other

Ever since we had met 

We just clicked 

Or so our parents thought 

Getting us married

For once we thought that this would be nice 

Best friends married to each other 

Yet there are some speed bumps 

That made us side track from our paradise 

When He came 

He was an old flame 

Slithering his way with venom in our lives 

Destroying our holy paradise 

She fell for him 

Making me realize what life is 

Waking me up from my sleep 

And removing the facade 

I knew that she would never have those feelings for me 

I was her best friend after all 

I should have known 

Of her feelings 

I took her away 

For a day just to tell know if he is what she wants 

She had tears trickling down and there was my answer 

She sat silently in the car 

As we approached a strange set up 

With the church ready for a marriage 

I Stopped and took her inside from the storm

For a surprise, with him inside holding a ring and kneeling before my life 

I smiled and left 

Giving my best friend a shot of what was true happiness 

Misty eyed she hugged me and pecked me 

Thanking me for resurrecting her soul 

Bloodstream

Bloodstream

With the night being silent and dull 

It had a mysterious aura around it 

With the owl hooting in the dead of the night 

And the nocturnal creatures crawling out of their sleep 

With the howling of dogs 

And shouting from the clubs with their ear deafening music 

But there was something hellish about the night 

With the ghouls roaming around lurking for a new prey 

I sat there when it happened 

When the grim reaper came for his prey 

While she had no inkling of what the future had 

Poor young soul 

We were in love since half a decade 

Ahh the romance that we had 

Young college pass outs we were when we first met 

Now we were just a couple who couldn't fathom life without the other 

It was our anniversary that night 

When we were on our way back 

Walking underneath the moonlit night 

When suddenly my vision was clouded by a heavy blow 

And bang I saw you hit 

And again a shot to your head and you crumbled down 

Staring at me with those life less eyes 

And your blood kissing me on my cheek 

I miss you every second when 

You were an innocent victim of a crime 

I still do our ritual even today I know you are not with me anymore 

But the memories live on 

Will You be Mine In My Dreams?

Will You Be Mine In My Dreams?

I saw her again today

When I was lost 

I thought I wouldn't see her again 

But there she was 

The white serene background 
Made us feel at home 
With nothing but us and the fire place 
And just one another's company 

Her smile moved me from my thought to her 
She captivated my mind and my thoughts
Her silk like skin made me feel the chills in my spine 
And her eyes got me transfixed 

She was just a soul made for me I thought 
With us hanging around each other 
Only with love in our hearts 
And a future which was as bright as a shooting star 

Suddenly a loud bang had hit me on my head 
With nothing but the morning light 
And the midsummer sunshine outside 
All I thought was 
Will you be mine again in my dreams?

Who You Love

Who You Love 

How often do we wish 

That we find the one who is meant for us 

Either he will come to us as a knight 

Or maybe she might be our princess 

Odd isn't it being in love 

Feeling the butterfly in your stomach

Feeling elated about everything 

Love makes you into a drunk person 

She sat next to me 

For three years to come 

Smiling shyly at me whenever I passed by 

Slowly smiles turned into chits 

And chits turned into letters 

I remember loving her to an extent that I forgot that the world also exists 

But good times die early  

And my fraud caught on 

I had asked her to marry me 

She said yes with tears in her eyes 

Dreaming of our future plans 

How good it felt but all good things come to an end

Oh god how great it felt  

With everything that I owned was now hers 

Yet her heart was in my hand 

And the fraud eating every resource I had 

Damn I said if only I knew 

I would have never made her fall for me 

Now I have a task at hand 

If I could Protect us till the end 

Or I can save her by not marrying her forever 

Talking To The Moon

Talking To The Moon

The starry skies and the moonlit garden 

How quite this place seems in the night 

The swings where once the couples sat remains empty 

As if asking someone to have a seat and enjoy the scene 

Here I sit on the stone bench where we once sat to enjoy the night 

Strange it is that years have passed on yet this night is the same 

When we first met 

It was a calamity in the making 

You had messed up my shirt 

Burnt your hand while lighting up a smoke 

Caught by the cops which followed some moral policing 

It was a night like this 

You were a disaster when I met you 

A tomboy in truth yet you never accepted it 

I knew it there and then that my heart is not mine anymore 

You had my heart in your hands 

I always was a fan of you 

How cute you were yet never admitted it 

You had made me feel humbled with you by my side 

I knew that you were also feeling the way I do 

It was night like this 

When I slipped a ring on your finger 

While you had tears in your eyes I could see the love you had for me 

You have always instilled that love in me even today 

Here as I wait for you 

Outside your office 

With our daughter sitting beside me 

All I am doing right now is talking to the moon 

No Strings Attached

No Strings Attached

The bar was filled with lost souls 

Drinking to forget something 

And some just sitting there lost in the oblivion 

I ordered a Jack just to kill the thoughts in my mind 

With the first sip of the golden elixir

i could not help but think about you  

How my life has been ever since I met you

I never thought that something good can ever happen to me in this life 

You were an epitome of love 
Bouncing here and there just to spread smiles 
Funny how i met you 
And all you did was reveal myself to me 

I was a lost soul 
searching for a meaning to my life 
Then our paths crossed and you helped me to understand myself 
You unleashed different shades of me for the world to see

You stood there watching me from the sidelines 
Just to know how have I progressed 
You held me together when I was losing it 
You made me overcome my panic attacks just see me normal again 

And tonight as I wait for you to come 
I can only imagine how lucky am I 
To sleep next to one of the most beautiful soul I ever met 
And to think how lucky am I to have your heart vested in my soul intact 

Everybody Lies

Everybody Lies 

Ever wondered how humans had a soft heart 

And something evil bites the sweetness out of you 

What would you do then 

Would you try to keep your soul intact or become the beast that is inside you 

I was innocent once like the rest of you 

But god had so a sinister plan ahead

Wishing if I would have known 

His plans I would have stopped them 

I had put in my faith in his creations 

Funny how god can create someone heartless like the Tin man 

I never would have wondered that people could be rude and mean 

When all I gave was love and respect to them 

I never wondered that a man would lie for everything 

How funny it is the only thing we trust becomes a lie 

I met her, trusted her and fell into the honey trap 

I gave her my trust only to see it shattering 

It took me time to understand that 

Everybody lies 

Funny it is how sweet a lie seems that we trust it 

And how we don't trust the truth  

In The End

In The End

Before I fell down on the ground 

Laying as a crumbled heap 

With nothing but the wind blowing my remains 

In the air where I could not survive 

Funny how a human lives 

We call ourselves self sufficient 

And once we achieve it all 

All we see is a crowd of free loaders not friends 

But what if you have someone

Who is the reason where you are today 

And in that deranged state you forget about her 

Then when you turn back she is not there anymore 

She was the life of me 

When I met her 

She had a pen and a pad in her hand 

Noting down everything that she could see 

Her eyes always had a certain magic on me 

I could see the innocence that I once lost as a child 

Still in her eyes 

God had made her into his favorite masterpiece  

Then a whirlpool came and destroyed my soul 

Leaving me deranged and demented

With only work being the tantamount of my breathing

In the end, when i achieved it all she disappeared

Leaving me in my castle of gold 

which now only valued like that of glass

As I now stand with tears dripping down my face 

it was enough to make me pull my sword and lay in a bloody heap.

The Last Wish

The Last Wish 

As the the minutes passed 

He sat in a corner thinking about his last breath

With the moonlight being surrounded by the dark clouds 

All he wished was for only god to save him 

Many people had been hurt due to him 

And his actions had led them to flee 

With each day he only built a reputation of a mercenary

People feared him and his gaze 

Whenever someone tried to look into his eyes 

They were haunted by the very darkness of it 

Lost in the horrifying depths of it 

It was like the devil had found a resting place in his soul 

He seemed invincible until that fateful night 

When he slipped for the first time 

When the devil inside was cast under her spell

All it took was a glimpse from her into his eyes 

It was special till it lasted 

With his breathe oozing the whiskey he had 

His eyes gave the devil inside a new meaning 

He fell in love with something pure 

That the next time he saw her 

He brought it around his neck 

Thinking that she might leave again  he jumped 

Only to see that the neck was broken and the noose hugging his neck 

He wished he could see her again but in the dreams that he dreamt 

He finally found her again
