the fight


Every time the horn sounds
Every time the flag is raised
I’ll walk this road
With my shield and my sword
To the open gate

Will pull myself and
Walk straight
Across that open gate
Wounds won’t pain
Injuries won’t bother
When I had crossed that gate

I stand tall, I stand brave
Only in my heart I know
I see my grave
The battle is lost
The enemy strong
Still I stand as ‘hope’
Might not for long

Sometimes my shield falls
Sometime I pick my sword
All I know that I have to fight
Not for me but for the belief
That I’m strong and I”ll win

I bled yesterday and
I bleed today
I’ll fight tomorrow
If this is not my last day


 As I’m a hero in those eyes
For whom I’ll fight, to die

The Sun


Someday I’ll steal the sun
All the light that comes out of it
Hide it under the ground that day
Give it a grave and leave it inside to burn

It would be a perfect crime
No light to find me
In the dark I’ll hide and smile
And people will forget the sun
As the always do in a while

That day I’ll come back
Carrying the sun
Put it in the sky
And let it burn

I’ll be God that day
Bestowed with all the love
To reign, to rule
to have my wish

Till then I’ll hide
and wait for them to see me
in this light of the Sun
as there lies a dark in me
which can never burn

It will someday make me 
steal the Sun

Lost Words


Sorry, the words are lost
and I can't find
the stars, the moon..
or any thing divine

I just sit here, wanting to write
Something about you
That is suddenly
So hard to define
You

I linger to search everywhere
In my mind, so much of you
But still none

I pick a thread whose end is lost
I try to pull it, but all in vain
it was there but it is gone now
so I pick another
to pull and loose it again

Nothing absolutely nothing
I retain in my hands from
That pool of you

You are so much there yet none
It is so full but empty
I'll try again, maybe not now
some day when I find words
for you, to complete
the unwritten, you.

my world

They tell me the world is mine,
but this is not MY WORLD
they tel me I"ll be never left behind
but I walk alone
there is a crowd of friends
but I stand silent
I hold the torch but stand in dark
I'm sanely mine, but insanely YOURS

The King

You know someone said that the worlds a stage
And each must play a part.
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.
Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
Now the stage is bare and Im standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you wont come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.

-Elvis (Are you lonesome tonight)

The Door

On this door I wanted to knock, which will open, if I did
but i didn't...don't know why
It was night, it was raining, and I had nowhere to go..
It couldn't have been worse...
Still I didn't...
I was told, when I loose it all, I can come and just knock
and it will open...Tonight i had lost it all
still I didn't
Did I loose this door too...or is it this door I had only lost?
I can see everything outside the door...reachable..
what I can't see is inside...still that is the only hope, I know
still i didn't
I can't go back, I can't knock...I just stand there..watching
thinking...if that someone inside needs me as much..
to open just to check if I'm outside...
that's why i didn't...
I have nowhere to go...no one to lean..
so I'll stand here and wait..for that one to check and let me in.
But somewhere I feel to just Knock...coz that someone won't know
and is waiting like me..

The Last stand

A dream..it has to be a dream
I was standing in front of, what they called GOD
I could see nothing
I waited for some light to shine, in a while it did
but still, could see nothing
my faith shaken, belief shattered
I stand on hope and only hope
but nothing
a voice would come, i waited
I howled, I cried with all the might
but could see nothing
now even the light is gone
in the darkness i stand alone..
to see nothing
I did what I could do..
wanted to Pray, but to Who
coz in place of God, I see nothing
Aimless, I stood
now on my knees, my eyes are dry
not a tear left to cry...i whisper
O God, where did u go?
no voice, no sight...
I want to wake up..to end the dream
only to realize, I can never wake up..
I slept the last sleep and this dream is what left for me
for eternity....No God, No light, No me
only darkness and nothing to see...

The One


Some day this will happen..that I'm there but no one on my side to tell..
Tell, how I won, how I fought or just to tell..
For I lost in this fight the one who meant all to me..
For whom I would kill any one and every one..I lost..I lost..the one I would tell
I was there in the middle..to win this for that one..for the one I fought for..
The one who meant all
I see lying that one dead..the one I fought for..the one would tell 
I killed the one who meant the world 
The one who meant all
I was told to kill that one, to win..that one needs to die to win this fight..
the one who I fought for..
The one who meant it all
I needed to win for that one..that's what I did..I won but I lost..
Now I stand..a winner..a loser..the one who survived..the one who died 
The one who meant all..is ashes now..
The one who meant all..is in air now..
The one who meant all..is me
I had to die to win for the one who meant all..so here, I tell to no one I see..
I died for me.

Sleep


I dare to close my eyes now
..just for a while..as it is calm now
Dark, but calm..nothing I could hear
Other  than the waves and the creaking sound of wood.
I had fought with all my strength..
When those tides had hit me with all the vigor...I fought and survived this one..this one fight..
I'll sleep now..just for a while..as it is calm now.
The tides may come again..again the waves would rise..making me feel so small..so tiny...so weak.
O the unforgiving sea..the mighty, unforgiving sea..
..on whose lap I lie may soon strangle me with its unimaginable force..
just break me into pieces..I dare not let my shield down and be not ready..
But I  will close my eyes now.. just for a while..may be more as it is calm now..

For I don't know what the next moment brings..
but this one moment I'll sleep..
and let it pass a little ignored..as it is calm now

I dare to close my eyes now.

The Window


He sat outside looking at the window every night and watched that curtain flutter on that window covering the white light that just got a chance to come out for a few seconds.
He watched that window every night.
Why that window looked so enchanting to him?
Why was he spending his evenings just looking at it and that too for hours?
There were questions he was not able to answer but still repeated the same everyday. It has been months he has shifted here and no one ever came on that window, but surly someone lived there every evening the lights were switched on.
One night it was raining, and the window was still dark, he checked it every now and then but no-one switched on the lights that evening. He waited, he hoped and he checked it once more and the lights came on. And this time curtain was not all white it had a gray shape on it. The shaped changed from some one standing still for a moment and opening her hair. The shape grew smaller and than disappeared.
He once again sat in his balcony watching that window. This time he waited for something or for someone to push that curtain and that grey patch to take a definitive shape and this time have a different colour .
The white curtain again had a shape on it a leaner one. It was a hand, which moved the curtain, with a coffee mug in it. The hand was followed by a perfect shape of a woman. A woman, like he has never seen before.
She was talking to someone over the phone, she was trying to make that person understand something then she started crying and then she disconnected.
She cried for some time more.
Then she climbed the window.
His eyes followed her. She was there in front of him. She didn't looked that pretty and that perfect shape was broken now. It was all red in that white light.

The Joker

There was a joker named JOJO.
Like every other clown he painted a smile on his face, wore a red round nose, a white curly hair wig,a clown dress and a clown's cap.
Every day he had a 15 min act in the show and the people loved it and cheered him all through. Many of them came everyday to watch him perform that same act.
He was happy, as happy as he could be.
One fine day he thought, " if he is so happy why does he need to paint that fake smile on his face"
so he decided otherwise, fro the next show onwards he would perform without the smile painted on his face. His mother loved his smile.
Next da he came on stage, did what he did every day, without a single error, performed the same act with two fold joy and enthusiasm.
Nobody Clapped.
Nobody Cheered.

The Tree

There was this tree.
What was so special about this tree?
It was always GREEN, no matter what season it was.
The trees around it shed their leaves in autumn, but this tree was always GREEN.
People in the nearby village wondered what kept this tree GREEN. Some worshipped it and called it the LIFE TREE. They believed till the time there is life on the earth this tree will remain GREEN. Years went by, generations passed but that tree never shed.
The belief grew stronger day by day and year by year. Villagers constructed a temple around it and a stone near the tree read "THE LIFE TREE".
One autumn, people came to the temple to offer their prayers but to their surprise they found the tree has grown BROWN, All its leaves were lying under it, all brown and dead.
As this autumn the tree, for the first time opened its EYES.

The Sunflower

In a garden far-far away, a sunflower was born.
He turned into flower that day from a bud enclosed
in those green petals.

The sense of that achivement suddenly dissapeared
when he saw many like him, some were older than him,
some of the same age and some still buds.

He was not unique.

He tried hard, looked around trying to find a difference which
could make him distinct, but all in vain.

They all looked in the same direction of the Sun and shone
bright like it

The day passed , he was sad but determined to do some thing
which will make others take notice of him.

And the next day he did what no other sunflower even imagined.
He broke the law that the creator has set for him, which became the reason why he was plucked and thrown away.

He turned the other way round.

Calte chalte is rah mein wo mod agaya...
jab manzil paas hai...par paon saath nahi dete...
koshish kadam bhadane ki karte hain magar..
phir armaan saath nahi dete..

kisi anjaani rah par chaldo ....
Manzil pata nahi, hogi... to mil jayegi
warna zindgi uhin chalte hue Kat jayegi....
Anjaan koi raah mein mil jaye ga koi to
Kya Pata shayad manzil wahin ban jayegi
