When you left me

When you left me ,
Fearing I have lost you for ever
looked for you in the stars.

Deep down my heart told me

I was still there in your sky shining along ,

quietly joy crept into my melancholy tune

And my heart sang with ecstacy,

The day you came back,

I found dreams falling apart

broken into thousand pieces.

My heart stood silent and empty.

Devoid of the music that so far filled me;

Thrilled my being with sublime expectation....

Body and soul, pining for your love...

And riding into seventh heaven;

Was gone gone and simply gone ...when....

I was in your arms !

Love is divine

My eyes are dry !

Where have the tears gone !
Your words, have they lost their sting!
Lost your power to make me cry !
I wish you knew the depth that my mind can go
Heaven is where my love thrives!

If my tears could win you over !
I would loath to possess your love then ;
That comes so cheap,
That would shame me for ever.

You stand tall beyond the world.
So, leave me if you wish;
You will still be there shining in my sky
The earth is not where my soul breathes.

Why so eager to see me cry !
My love, you are so precious!
I keep you inside the shell of my heart…
Tears have no place here, so please don’t try…

Missing you

I wish to be in the greens
Where the sky kisses the grass
And when the thunderous cloud blows its trumpet
Echoing the ocean’s call in a rumbling tone-
I wish I was there and not alone
Savouring the redolent earth,
Drenched and heady
With Jasmine, and Champak offering their fragrant wine.

They all seem to be a distant cry
Of a world that once was mine.
Time and again the sea with thousand arms
Rushes back to his sandy beach
Hugging her with all his might
How I wish you were here
Taking me in your arms
And holding me tight

In the silence of the dark

I won’t come to you.
I promise, never.
But for ever and ever ,
I would be with you in your dreams and your thoughts.

I won’t let you catch me, my dear.
But I would be there in the books in your hands,
In the lyrics that you love,
In the words that make you laugh and cry.

I would be there in the evening breeze,
To cool you and to hug you as I wish.
No, I won’t ask for favours
But look for me in the pain and the tears that separate us.

At the dead of night
Silently and softly I would mingle in your soul
Sleeping in oblivion.
I promise, I won’t hold you in my arms.
But kindling the flame of hope and desire in my heart
I shall wait for you in the silence of the dark.
