"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Plain Imagination....

Like the ripples on a river
Falling snowflakes on your face
Every passing hour seems as enchanting
As the touch of cool breeze upon your skin!
The scent of pages in a new book
The essence of wet earth
Every brushing minute feels as chirpy as
The morning birds tweets in your ears!
The first drops of rain
Pounding sound of thunder
And then the lightning across the sky
It seems every single second
Has stood still without passing by!

Passing thought...


A drop of tear
And I have no fear
A touch of love
Neither there nor here!
A sense of belonging
Not too far or near
A feeling of loneliness
But not a soul to hear!
A brush of friendship
How beautiful yet dear
An echo of my heart beat
So simple yet clear!

A wish...

Not every sunshine can make you smile
Not every moonlight can make you love!
I look up at the stars awhile…
If only I could hold’em in my glove!
I stare at the sunset…
How scenic just as the waves lick’em wet!
How I wish I was up above there
Looking down upon the world somewhere…..!
When time passes by me…
I wonder how life was meant to be…!
When life moves ahead
I wonder how the past would have been instead!
When the past just goes by
I wonder of the future with a sigh!
As the future evolves
I watch the present dissolve!
How I wish I could go back
Make a few changes here and there….
Just to see if it’ll lead somewhere

Life


Stars shine down upon me
I close my eyes now
To dream of what was meant to be …
What my life has been and how…
I see the beauty of the shoreline..
How far and yet so near
I wish the world was mine…
Then there would be nothing to fear!
I now sail through the desert
Seemingly endless and yet so stunning
I follow the sandunes
So beautiful and yet so cunning
…And now there’s no turning back
I look ahead….
The moon hides as the sun peaks
I carry on with life’s sack…

Without an answer to what my heart seeks….

Tonight...


Tonight……
I feel this tonight
It’s a deep, forlorn , empty feeling
As I stroll in quest of something
I know not!
I sense it tonight
In my heart
Meandering my way across cross roads
Chasing dreams yonder!
I’ve yearned since twilight
For this quiet and peace
Amidst the stillness
As my heart ponders!
I can feel it comin'
Like I knew it all along
Chimin' it’s way through
A dream in the making!
I've got a feelin'…tonight...
I cleave on to it
Without any qualms
Now that the love is gone!

What it takes...



What it takes?
It might take a 1000 seconds to say IT,
A 1000 minutes to express IT…
Another 1000 hours to understand IT..
A 1000 days to live upto IT!
Maybe even a few years...who knows?
But to say, express, understand and truly live it now..

Is what IT takes!
Everyday I wake up and watch the sunrise
So real and yet so beautiful
Makes me wonder and mesmerize
So simple, I could take a handful!
How can it be the same everyday?
When there be 4 seasons and 12 months
Just like Autumn,Winter, March and May
It shines brighter than ever
No difference whatsoever none
As beautiful as the morning dew
I get ready to face every day new!
That’s how life’s gonna be
Taking each step as it comes by me
We hold hands and cross the river of life
Never to let go
No matter what the future strife
It’s meant to be so!

My saga



I live life today as though I care not
It's about where I am and not where I ought to be
It's beyond the horizon that I seek
The truth that makes me feel weak
I try not to lose myself
Not to be carried away
By the mundane thoughts that envelope me
I look here and there
I know I'll find the key somewhere
Will it lead me to the land of my dreams?
Will it unlock my deepest fantasies?
I have no clue
And yet I slowly close my eyes
Seems like a standstill
I could be looking out of a dark window sill!
Here I am
Waiting....waiting to be awoken
From my deep slumber
U could call it being crazy, being in love, being in a beautiful
dream…..
But I guess that's the way somethings are meant to be!
