Of Good Byes and Good lucks

Of Good Byes and Good lucks

May be its about saying goodbyes
Or the feeling that lingers of loosing old ties
But I wish these be just momentary feelings
'cause soon you'll be happier with new found wings

Though there is no reason that I can define
Just a sad feeling in the back of my mind
And deep down I wish that tomorrow is brighter
And soon this heavy heart will grow lighter.

Good byes I know are always hard,
So I'll instead go with good lucks, that feel good,
And I'll raise this toast to all the old times
When despite situations, together we stood.

loosing the strength

One hand on her head
And the other rests by her waist
She seems about to cry
cursing this life she's got herself into
But I can for sure tell her that
She ain't got it wrong,
not then, not now
Cause I have seen it all, and i know
The strength in her eyes
And no I can't see her break down
not this way, not right now

I know it's easier to run away
Than to stand here waiting for things to change
But i too feel unsure
About her and about this moment
Cause this could be all in my mind
All my imagination
And she could just be tired
And needs some warmth, a place to rest

But then I have never seen her so frail
never so broken down in her eyes
And just wish to say
You know we have seen better days together
though tonight's not one of them
And i just want to say, hold on to me
and we will get over this one as well

One more time (redux)

Converted one of my poems to a song (composed by Shravan, and video editing by Ankit) and did a quick video with my Nikon Coolpix :)




you sang the song always so fine,
but I struggled hard to strum the rhyme
you danced with me and you danced so fine,
but I missed the beat almost each time

and I thought you were so over my line
no matter how I try you’d never be mine

but I never read, never read the subtle sign
so I drew it thick and never crossed the line

o its been, so long long a time
counting stars, on the empty beaches lying

o its been, so long long a time
since I saw your, nose ring shine

Na na naa nana naaa na na na
Na na naa nana naaa na na na

when I look behind, dark shadows I find
those moment remind, wish i’d read your mind
i ask your god, for one more chance
to rewind , and stop the time

so I can say, lady, will you dance with me,
leaving reasons behind, just for moments time,
so I can tell you lady, I never stopped trying,
give me a chance, just one more time

o its been, so long long a time
counting stars, on empty beaches lying

o its been, so long long a time
since I saw your, nose ring shine

Na na naa nana naaa na na na
Na na naa nana naaa na na na

and suddenly

and suddenly when the rain pours down on a burning day,
or from nowhere the sun breaks out to light up a dark foggy way,

suddenly when sometimes a smile sneaks in into a heated debate,
or when things just fall in place, solving puzzles after a hard long day,

suddenly I remember all those trans formative moments,
when everything changes in a sudden,
bringing along a rush of feelings,
and a sudden change in meanings ..


i raise this toast to that instant feeling of change,

...... to suddenness

happy ol' days

sun rays on my face ...
life at a slow pace ...
ah i so hated that race ...
but then who cares,
when its back to the happy ol' days.
