Girls

Someone just happened to look at my articles the other day,
And after glancing through some she had this to say,
“Why is it, that girls are the inspiration for most of your poems”,
For a moment I was caught unawares and wondered what was her problem.

It took me a minute or two and I did come out with my one liner as usual,
Don’t worry I did not respond saying this was because I am Heterosexual,
I just said I could not help it as for some time now they were the one’s who drove me crazy,
And that rhyming lyrics were definitely my tribute to them for making my mind hazy.

Those Days

Those were the days when we craved for so many things,
However, controlling those desires was just part of the learning.
There were so many wishes that we wanted to be fulfilled,
But with what we had, it was best to remain contented.

Do you remember those days or have you forgotten the past,
I know you want to stay for the moment and have a blast,
Agreed, it’s been a long time since those days have passed,
But I guess you will enjoy the present even more, if you realize what all you have surpassed.

It’s good to actually remember what your roots are,
I know you might think am I preaching and wonder if this guy’s being bizarre.
I certainly feel moving ahead in life is one thing,
But remembering your past definitely increases your zing. … for the future.

Still Walking.......

Walking on a road that never seems to end,
Don’t know what I am going to achieve as I feel I have no intend.
Hoping someone would come along and inspire me on my path,
As I don’t want to reach a stage wherein I end up facing my own wrath.
In between all this I just close my eyes at times & think of those good old memories that made my day,
Coz if not for them, the distance I had covered till now would be nothing short of disarray.

White Mischief

White was the color she chose to wear that day,
Second glance was definitely on, once our eyes were set her way.

Getting closer to her would have probably been on every guys mind,
Coz after watching her, one could definitely not pretend to be blind.

For a moment I thought, how lucky were the strands of hair flowing around her face,
Coz with the blowing wind, they were surely the lucky ones being felt by her & set in place.

Suddenly she just turned back and gave a smile which looked so mischievous,
And believe me I had no option but to reciprocate, as it was kind of infectious.

I am still trying to figure out what made her smile in my direction,

U don’t think much about this, coz I am just writing rhyming verses for my blog collection. :-)

Pleasant Weather

It really feels so nice in this pleasant weather,
How I wish we could spend some quality time together.
I am not sure if to this desire of mine you would accede,
So give it a thought & let me know coz I am not gonna plead.
Remember, times spent together are worth its weight in gold,
Coz beautiful memories of this will definitely not unfold.

The Light of the Body

The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness.

Luke: 11:34

Reflection

Living in this world, for some reason is getting darker in every sense,
Don’t know why for few moments of pleasure people end up selling themselves,

Do these people not feel ashamed of looking at their reflections in the mirror?
Or have they even started ignoring their image to get away from their worst possible fears,

Wonder how these people could be humans to not have any feelings of guilt,
But I hope sooner than later their luck runs out and they are made to pay for being so full of filth.

Feels like Spring

It's getting so unbearable day by day,
Just feeling like running far way,
Water droplets trickling down slowly but steadily,
How i wish all our worries could also drain so easily.

Donno if it’s the heat inside that’s burning more,
Or it’s the scorching sun that’s causing the outpour,
Whichever is true, does not matter anymore,
Coz I have to overcome it & swim towards the shore.

Life really does seem so cruel at times,
But the joy it gives is so much worth the ride,
Once you learn to overcome the pain, there seems no stopping,
Life then even with the heat surely feels like spring.

The Heart of Man

He said to them, “Are you so lacking in understanding also? Do you not understand that whatever goes into the man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated?” (Thus He declared all foods clean.) And He was saying, “That which proceeds out of the man, that is what defiles the man. “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, deeds of coveting and wickedness, as well as deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride and foolishness. “All these evil things proceed from within and defile the man.”

Making Amends

It's true that at one point of time we really blended a lot,
And there was nothing else but each other that we thought
about,
But there were also so many times when we even fought,
That left us so agitated, heartbroken and distraught.

After all this:

She said she will be always be there as a true friend,
And that is what i always hoped that she would never pretend,
However we do know with time all good things come to an end,
So don't know why after all this she starts making amends.

Terrible Feeling

She got up that morning and looked at her face,
And soon after she covered her face with disgrace,
She was ashamed for what happened the previous night,
And for some reason she felt nothing was gonna get right.

She tried her best to muster courage and forget that night,
However those dark moments were not moving out of sight,
It was such a stage where even she was ashamed at her plight,
However it was really very difficult to expect her to fight

The guys who landed her in this situation had been so cruel,
That her body starting burning simliar to scorching fuel,
She tried figuring out, how on earth she landed in this mess,
And it really hurt her in knowing that even her fiance was involved in all this.

She looked at the mirror now, hoping something would seriousl y change,
And very soon after she felt a huge splash across her face,
She started feeling breathless for a few moments after that,
And that’s how she got up from a terrible dream, and the worst possible way for her day to start.

Walking on a path...

Walking on a path that never seemed to end,
Got company from a girl who ended up becoming my close friend.

A walk that seemed just meaningless at first,
But my worries she drained & I no longer felt the thirst.

Like a beautiful angel with wings she saved me from falling,
If not for her, I donno at this point where I would be crawling.

Inspite of all that you have done, I am sorry for the hurt,
I hope one day I can prove how much our friendship is worth.

What is Love?

Quote from the movie Little Manhattan:

Love isn't about ridiculous little words. Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in sky writing. Love is about going that extra mile even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there.

This movie involves 2 kids staying in Manhattan. There’s a ten year old boy Gabe who finds his first love in the form of his former kindergarten mate, the eleven years old Rosemary. The way he deals with the situation at home between his parents who are about to be divorced, and the new found feelings for this girl have been truly portrayed well. This movie's really worth watching. The performances by the child actors is really brilliant. The quote above really explains what love is all about.
