Sometimes, I leave myself perplexed
I know what I should do but what I do instead leaves me vexed
Its as if I haven't had enough of all the times my honest intentions go astray
And I have to put my foot in my mouth, just when things are going my way

Was lost in what I was reading
Till I saw you standing there,
Been staring at you since
Lost in the curls of your hair...

When I see you smile
Your smile, my lips too slyly share,
I love being lost in you
And from a distance, at you I stare...

May just have been in a trickle but the sands have been running out,
May just have been in a moment but I'm learning to live without...

Sometimes, when you've been breathless for far too long
And the shackles break away momentarily
You end up holding your breath and before you know it, the moments already gone
And you realise, that somewhere along the way, you've forgotten what its like to breathe!

Kuch beeta hua...

Peeche khada ek kal
Tang karta hai pal pal,
Par chand yaadein aur chand pal
Na cheen payenge mera aane wala kal...

There comes a time...

There comes a time when life doesn't flow
And seems to have slowed down to a trickle
When your days pass by without a memorable moment
And you can but reminisce the days when you were fickle

There comes a time when life has no answers
And questions don't cross your mind anymore
When your thoughts pass by without any significance
And you give up to relishing in memories of the days of yore

There comes a time when life holds no surprises
And realisation dawns on what already has been
When your wants peter down to what you can have
And your reality is more important than your dreams

And your past weighs down what should've been your present
When you're too bogged down by all your strife
And you don't even want to fight to have it all back
There comes a time when life stops being life...

A Letter from the Butterfly

And She Said:

"The mighty pen stands alone
its glory days are over
The brush with paper, the touch of ink no more
it stays inside its cover

The human speaks of numbers and words
that the pen knew not of before
There is a buzz of gadget, the glare of its screen
no bits of paper that rolled and tore

The fingers that held this pen with love
now do a tapping dance
There's a buoyancy in his fingers
but of its presence in the heart, there is a milder chance

The human may one day stop ignoring his pen
or it may become a bit too late
Till then, work, as men would like it said
keeps the pen in a lonesome wait"

But darling butterfly, dont you know?
 
"There was a dream once, 
worthy enough to be chased
And pen in hand, 
after it I'd raced
 
There was a dream once, 
that filled me with glee
And with words strung together, 
my spirit would roam free
 
There was a dream once 
and she gave  my life meaning
But she walked away once, 
whilst I was still dreaming
 
There was a dream once 
but when it lay shattered I asked what went wrong
And she told me, 
life is more than just words, rhymes and a song
 
There was a dream once 
but reality came calling
Said I was stumbling too much, 
said I was free falling
 
I walk with open eyes now, 
mindful of worldly viles and worldly gains
There was a dream once 
but of it now, only a memory remains..."

When is a guy ready for marriage? When he loses all desire to put up a fight because he understands the irrelevance of being right!
