MOVE ON!!

Move on!!

Losing you was such a nightmare,
This loss I just can’t bear,
Why did I let this wretched thing happen,
Just at a time when our love was beginning to blossom,

Without you, life has lost its meaning,
This pain of solitude,
Of an interminable magnitude,
It’s truly excruciating,

You were so loving, you were so caring,
With you by my side,
I wanted nothing else, I desired nothing else,
Just I wanted your arms in mine,

We had so much fun together,
All those happy memories I still remember,
How can it get over,
So suddenly, I wonder.

Now I feel so lonely, so forlorn, so alone,
I cry, I whimper, I moan, I groan,
This pain of parting is so unbearable,
My grief now is truly inconsolable,

Alas, life doesn’t give you another opportunity,
I soon have to regain my sanity,
I have to move on,
The past is now gone,

I have to look ahead,
Where there awaits a paradise on the roads I tread,
It had to get over one day, it did,
There’s nothing to wonder, nothing to ponder,

I have to move on,
The past is now gone,
I have to look ahead,
Where there awaits a paradise on the roads I tread….

JEALOUS!!

Jealous!!

I don’t know the reason,
But as you walk with that girl in crimson,
Who used to be my once-upon a time sweetheart,
You give me so much pain in the heart,
It’s true, I feel jealous of you.

I don’t know what the matter is,
But as I see you climbing the ladder,
Towards the peak, towards the summit,
I just can’t help it,
It’s true, I feel jealous of you.

Jealousy ruins everything, they say,
Jealousy ruins you, I know,
But I just can’t help it,
I don’t know the reason,
But it true, I feel jealous of you.

I don’t know why,
I mean, you are a friend, a nice guy,
So what makes me jealous,
I really haven’t the faintest idea,
But it’s true, I feel jealous of you.

You have achieved everything I desired,
You got everywhere before I did,
Am I incompetent, I am now beginning to think so,
Why has success always eluded me,
I don’t know why, but I am jealous of you.

I may be being a bit paranoid,
It may be misplaced jealousy,
I don’t know the reason,
But I just can’t help it,
It’s so fu**ing true, I feel jealous of you…

MESMERIZED!!

Mesmerized!!

This poem's very special to my heart...and i have written it after a very memorable incident that took place recently!!

I feel mesmerized,
By your divine presence,
I never quire estimated,
Your beauty immense,
I had seen your pics numerous,
But now that I have met you personally,
I now realize you are so gorgeous,
As I feel, a long-time dream has come true, really.

I was truly fortunate,
That we finally met,
You made my day, you truly did,
And now I know,
One thing indeed,
I feel I am addicted to you,
And I don’t think,
I can quite live without you

Since that wonderful evening,
You are forever immersed in my mind,
I feel lost, I am wondering,
Am I in heaven of any kind,
I feel I am attracted to you,
I am sure I am addicted to you,
I feel I am captivated by you,
And I am sure I just can’t live without you.

I always desired to meet you,
I always craved to spend a moment with you,
I always knew this dream would come true,
I just didn’t know when,
But now I am so happy, so elated,
I feel so delighted, so enlightened,
One thing’s for sure,
This is the best phase of my life, dear.

You make me feel so special,
With you, it always feels so wonderful,
I owe everything to you,
You refresh me like the first drop of morning dew,
I am indebted to you, immense,
You made me live life in its true sense,
And about this, there’s no pretence,
I just want to be with you forever.

You make me smile, when I am all tear,
You make me brave, when I am all fear,
I am mesmerized by your divine presence,
I never estimated your beauty immense,
I feel addicted to you,
I feel captivated by you,
And I am sure of one thing,

I just can't live without you....

THE FESTIVAL OF COLOURS!!

The festival of colours!!

The festival of colours,
I feel, it has lost its flavour,
I can sense,
It has lost its true essence.
Holi is now being vandalized,
Just in the name of celebration and fun,
It’s a pity to see this,
It’s a shame to bear this.

The festival was celebrated in the past,
To promote social harmony,
To bring people together,
It didn’t matter whether,
You were a Dalit or a Hindu or a Muslim,
What mattered were the feelings,
Of brotherhood, of fraternity,
Of national integration, of unity

But today I am completely shocked,
At the way Holi is celebrated,
Stones disguised as water balloons,
They are being pelted at,
Travelers on road and in trains,
With just one sole intention,
To hurt people, to cripple them,
To handicap them, to kill them

It’s disheartening to hear of instances,
Of people losing an eye or a limb,
People are now scared of traveling in trains on Holi,
Just because of such anti-social elements.
Holi is now being vandalized,
Just in the name of celebration and fun,
It’s a pity to see this,
It’s a shame to bear this.

I am completely shattered,
As I read about instances,
Of women complaining,
Or eve-teasing and sexual abusing,
Especially on this festive occasion,
It has completely torn me apart,
And I feel so ashamed,
Of calling this festival as auspicious,

Is this the festival of colours,
That it was originally supposed to be,
Are we celebrating it in its true form,
I ask everyone,
I seek answers from each one,
But alas, people are in no mood to change,
They even lack the desire to change,
And that’s what bothers me even more

Holi is now being vandalized,
Just in the name of celebration and fun,
It’s a pity to see this,
It’s a shame to bear this,
I can stand it no more,
I can bear it no more,
I wish the people will realize their mistake soon,
I wish the people would change soon…….


So people, celebrate holi in such a way that you do not hurt anyone physically or mentally…Happy holi to all!!

COMPLACENT!!

Complacent!!

My overconfidence and complacency,
It has ruined me completely,
I always thought things would be done,
Quite easily,
All battles would be won,
Quite easily,
But I was wrong,
Oh so terribly wrong,

Eventually I was the only one,
Left behind, as
All my peers reached their summit,
I always thought I was the best,
This proved to be my mistake biggest,
Overconfidence did me in,
And I lost everything I had,
And ended up becoming totally mad

I was in such a strong position,
I had everything I wanted,
I had everything I desired,
But I kept living on the past laurels,
As eventually all that I had,
Disappeared all of a sudden,
And I was eventually left with,
A huge debt and a gigantic burden

My friends tried hard,
To improve me somewhat,
They told me to work harder,
But I never did bother,
My family tried hard,
To bring me back to earth,
But I never considered their advice,
To be of any worth

I have realized one thing,
In this world there are thousands,
Who are superior,
There’s no place for complacency here,
There’s no use of arrogance here,
Coz this world will bite you then,
Coz this world will torment you then,
And you’ll be left all alone,
Drenched in pain, cursing your own self

I have learnt it the hard way,
I have let my own life swirl and sway,
My overconfidence and complacency,
It has ruined me completely,
I thought things would be done,
Quite easily,
All battles would be won,
Quite easily,
But I was wrong,
Oh so terribly wrong,

But now I’ll fight back,
I have learnt my lesson,
I’ll find my way,
I still have the hunger,
To be a conqueror,
I’ll work harder,
And eventually be a frontrunner,
I’ll eventually be a winner…

FIFTY YEARS!!

Fifty years!!

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way.

There were a few misunderstandings, a bit of turbulence,
Things turned at times,
A bit hostile, sometimes even hoarse,
But that didn’t hamper our flare and romance.

I still remember the day when I had proposed,
And to decide, you had taken a moment too long,
I felt I was going to be rejected,
But I am fortunate that I was wrong.

I still remember our first occasion,
When our hearts were palpitating, full of tension,
We were so nervous, so excited that night,
As we hoped everything will go on allright.

We were sitting beside a fire,
With our bodies burning with desire,
The music system was playing such a romantic song,
As we had hoped that night to last slightly long.

So many memories I still cherish,
Be it our first child,
Or to see his career flourish,
Those moments are still fresh in my mind.

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way.

Even today as I gaze into your starlit eyes,
I feel mesmerized,
Even today as I hear your sweet voice,
I feel magnetized.

As I look at your slightly wrinkled face, I smile,
It’s been a remarkable race, Of many a mile
I look at your aged yet smooth skin,
And realize what a journey it has been.

It’s been fifty long years,
So far luckily, there have been no tears,
It still feels like it's just been a day,
And I wish it forever stays this way…


Fifty years...??!!...that's slighly far-fetched you might think....but surely at the back of your mind, you must be wishing that you get an opportunity to celebrate fifty years with the person you love the most...
