I can feel u still
Beneath my skin
In the air I breathe
In madness
In sadness
In happiness
And In peace
I can feel you
within me
Restlessly asleep..!
Indulge!
In this moment,right here,
Where the darkness surrenders
To the dim light
of the lampposts
In the foggy nights
Surrender thyself..
To the stillness
And silently listen
to the soothing rhythm
Of pauses..
in between the breaths
Allow me…
To let you know
Through those pauses
That I believe in you..
The moon sighs!!
Let the flickers of the flame
Dance and sway
To the melodies of the memories..
Indulge in this moment!
~~payal~~
LET IT RAIN..
Come,
Be with me
For a while
Till the time
I breathe this breath
In this very moment,
Pure and ecstatic
Words seem to be buried
In eternal oblivion
To seek freedom..
Neither the Sun nor the moon I need
To fill in the empty spaces
'spaces create differences'
Let the rain
Wash away the dust
That has settled on the leaves
In these vacant places
Oh Please! Let it rain..!

SONG OF LOVE..
What do I tell thee?
Something stirs within..
As thy grace shine upon me
In this moment
Of unspoken embrace..
.
As the petals unfold
Our hearts entwined
In passionate dreams
Dance in ecstasy
.
Ah!These tears of joy!
As the life breathes
The breath of love
Overcasted shadows
Of the dark clouds
Disappear
In the desire to seek horizons
.
Overstuffed fingers
Imprints a tale again
On a blank paper
With colorless ink
Invisible….!

The Renaissance
The fleeting passion
With the wind traveled
From over the mountains
To the barren lands
With the wind traveled
From over the mountains
To the barren lands
Bits of silver atop the
Lashes moist,
Pinched..
The rainbow bends
Cold misty sight
Fusion of the darkness and light
Hopeful dreams wrapped tight
It rained the whole night..
The wet sunshine diffused
The elixir of creation
On the blessed earth
Blending the green and blue
The flowers and the leaves
The cool breeze
Melodies of the sparrows
All seemed afresh, anew..

NETWORK
As their eyes met
For a single moment
The teary eyes
Reflected the shattered dreams
Aching voice
Complimented the vanished smile
Confused thoughts
Rendered bitter sweet pain
A lonely heart
Craved for the home..unbuilt!
Unaccomplished desires
Headed by destiny..
As their eyes met
For a single moment
They read and re-read
The unspoken and unheard
And had a lots to say….
Somewhere..
In between..
Quietly…
In distant corners
.
In that single moment..
Foaming Scintillation
On the chaotic island
Perplexed, I stare,
Standing still,
Trying to weave
My thoughts again.
They had left me
All drenched and
Drained..
And created a vacuum
Within…..!
.
Out of the blue,
Some thoughts
On my mind,
Burst like bubbles
And fill the void
With myriad hues
.
As the cooling embers
Reignite..
Restlessness
Appears green to me...
Its freshness
Keeps me alive..

If Only.....
If only you would have had the courage
to make new mistakes each time
If only you knew that every passing moment
had a lots in store for you
If only you would have not blamed yourself
for the unavoidable circumstances
If only you would have known that peace lies
on the other side of the coin
If only you understand NOW that you can live
a lifetime in a single moment…
You would stop regretting
and holding on to grudges
Let hope breathe within you..
Let the flowers bloom..
Miracles do happen..
I know you believe in them too...!
Dare to dream..!?!

P.S. In response to my soul sis Deepti's write "regrets"..

FREEDOM
In a closet,on the horizon
Where the dreams turn real
I found my treasure
Filled with blissful moments
And immense pleasure
Last night I danced in the rain
As glances dissolved in the raindrops
My soul freed
From the extra burden
Of the weeds..
The weather had been dry here
But I heard It rained there last night..

A NEW DAWN
With my eyes, half closed,
I waited for the dawn
A pearl sparkled in the corner
As the first ray of the rising sun
Touched my lashes
It blessed me with a vision of
A dozen rainbows
And glittering butterflies..
And filled my breathless being
With pulsating sighs....!
In a glass dish
Well placed in a room
Lay some dried flowers
Spreading the fragrance
Borrowed from a bottle of perfume.....
Indeed a crazy morning
It had been!
But insanity is my flavour!
It still rules my mind..

New Year..
New Year….
A time to make
New resolutions
Somehow meant to be broken..
May you be blessed this year
With lots of strength and courage
To revisit and resolve
The broken promises of your dreams..
With a
Fresh feel
New Year…
A time to reach the heights
By spreading the wings
Of hope and soaring high
May you be filled with new hope and
Look forward to a better tomorrow..
With a fervor
To heal
As the new year dawns…
May you be filled with new aspirations
May your dreams come true and
May each new day bring a smile to you
May you explore the new horizons
And attain peace and prosperity
In whatever you do..
May you experience
Retrieval of belief
In life and love
Unfolding
True happiness
That is in store for you..
For not just this year
But
For a lifetime!!

Silent Words.....
Those were the days
Whenever you remembered me
A green humming bird
Often came to me
And sat on the orange flowers
That grew on a creeper
Near the cactus
In my garden
We talked of the dreams and desires
But lost our rhymes
In the midway
Silently trying to hear the unheard
Amidst the noise of the wind chimes
Somewhere in between
The weeds grew
Near that creeper
Taller and taller
Deeper and deeper
Wilder than the imagination
Sometimes wild is beautiful..
Today,in leisure
Silently watching through my window grill
Used to the game of lost and found
I saw that bird again
And I know....
You remember me still..
We talked about the melodies
And the ceaseless rains
Of the burning desires
And dreams that drained
Whenever you remembered me
A green humming bird
Often came to me
And sat on the orange flowers
That grew on a creeper
Near the cactus
In my garden
We talked of the dreams and desires
But lost our rhymes
In the midway
Silently trying to hear the unheard
Amidst the noise of the wind chimes
Somewhere in between
The weeds grew
Near that creeper
Taller and taller
Deeper and deeper
Wilder than the imagination
Sometimes wild is beautiful..
Today,in leisure
Silently watching through my window grill
Used to the game of lost and found
I saw that bird again
And I know....
You remember me still..
We talked about the melodies
And the ceaseless rains
Of the burning desires
And dreams that drained
Silence is suffocating
Let words breathe between the spaces....
