When Dreams Come True

When You are Me and I am You

Unreasoned

8th hour
I wake up……..
Vulnerable, I become
It’s a one-way street
I am running
Away from me

9th hour
I envision …….
Beyond the offing
Beyond the blurred horizon
What is the direction
What is the destination

10th hour
I realize………
I don’t need a direction
I don’t need a destination
I have an ineffable feeling
An unreasoning passion

11th hour
I decide……….
What I fear much
What I long to feel
I close my eyes
I come back to me

Don't Wait

You wait for a gentle touch when you’re sad
You wait for shelter when it rains
You wait for a hug when in stress
You wait for time to soothe your pain

You wait for love when you need the most
You wait for dreams to show you the way
You wait for someone else’s smile on your face
You wait until tomorrow to be happy today

The wait doesn’t seem to get over…
Close your eyes… think of your pal
Every second, every moment, wherever you are

Don’t wait… in me… you have it all

You

Your tap on my shoulder, when I cry
Your gentle touch, less than a while
Your happiness, when I smile
The look of your eyes in my eyes


Your thoughts, when you are away
Your talks, when you are with me
Your believing in my dreams
Your telling me, there’s only one way

You’ve stolen me from me
Filled my days with smile of yours
Lost, I am standing on life’s shore
Everywhere, its you that I see

Don’t know, when and how you came
Wherever I am, I feel your presence
Crowded everywhere, but this place
Everything, as it was, nothing’s the same

Make the most of now

Let me write my own lines
Doesn't matter if words don’t rhyme
Let me sing my own song
Others’ can wait for some time




Let me dance to my own tune
Don’t bother me with any other sound
Let the music take me so high
That it’s my tune all around


Let me paint your picture
With me written all over it
Let me capture it in my eyes
It remains a secret… let it be

Let me make the most of now
Who cares… what’s gone by
Let me cherish this moment
Who cares… what’s ahead in time

Make the most of now

One life to live and love
One chance to be happy
One life to be yourself
One life…. just be

You create and own yourself
Its you who you face
You are in love with yourself
You owe yourself your space




You owe yourself your love
You owe yourself your smile
You owe yourself this world
You owe yourself your life

The love that you give yourself
Is the greatest love of all
Keep away from the crowd
Stand different…stand tall

Make the most of yourself
You know why… you know how
You owe yourself this moment
Make the most of now

Together

What is good and what’s not

Why do we decide

Why worry about the destination

Why don’t we simply ride

Let’s be together

And stand for each other

Let’s not say anything

And talk to each other

Let’s not understand things

We will never know

Let’s not ask questions

Let’s never say no

As long as

As strong as you feel

As long as you hide

.......... I will

As soon as you express

As soon as you smile

.......... I will

As far as you go

As high as you reach

.......... I will

As hard as you try

As much as you miss

.......... I will

As long as you are

As silent as you are

..... I am

As long as you will

As long as you love

..... I will

Notting Hill - Surreal But Nice

As usual, they played “Notting Hill” yet again on HBO day before yesterday. “Surreal but nice”…. that’s how I feel every time I watch this movie. Well… this is how William Thacker (Hugh Grant) summarizes his first kiss with Anna Scott (Julia Roberts). Also, this is how Anna summarizes her first meeting with William after they part after the first kiss. Surreal But Nice.

I can watch this movie again and again for endless reasons; the first, of course being the above and the others are the moments of subtle passion between William and Anna such as:

· When Anna asks William to sit beside her in the Park on the bench that has “FOR JUNE WHO LOVED THIS GARDEN… FROM JOSEPH, WHO ALWAYS SAT BESIDE HER” written on it. In the background Ronan Keating is singing:

The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all

· When Anna Scott says “After all... I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her".

· When Anna asks one of the journalists to repeat the question on the duration of her stay in Britain and she answers, “Indefinitely”

There are moments of subtle humor in this movie as well, especially the one involving William’s flat mate Spike.

Overall, it is the best romantic comedy of all time and you can’t stop yourself from saying “Surreal but nice” at the end of the movie.

I am What I am

I don't understand rules
I live life.... there's no end
I don't understand expectations
I am honest... never pretend

~~~

"The Stranger", "The Selfish"
Call me by whatever name
I am ahead of my time
I am what I am

Life is Calling

Why do you see darkness everywhere

When you know its daylight somewhere

Why are you walking on a road

that’s leading you to nowhere

Why do you look into a mirror

that make you feel good about what you’re not

Why are you doing things

that you have never dreamt of or thought

Why do you dream of impossible

when reality is what you want to live in

Why are you searching for it outside

when happiness lies within

It’s never too late. Wake up.

Why regret if you can’t restart things

Listen to your heart. Recognize your voice.

Life is calling, “Reborn and you will win”

A Beautiful Relationship

I don’t know why but I hate to tag a beautiful relationship.

Is it necessary that if I like someone she has to be tagged as my “girlfriend”, “lover”, “friend”, etc?

Well… I don’t think so.

Does it matter?

Not to me atleast.

If I like a person, I will like that person anyway, be it my friend, lover, or whatever tag someone (including that person) puts to my relationship.

Don’t tag a beautiful relationship and let life explore the limitless joy and happiness that person brings to life.  Believe me, the relationship will remain unconditional always.

You

Places,
Where I have been
Faces
That I have seen
Seas
Where sun sets
Rivers
Where moonlight melts

I have written on God’s beautiful creations…

…… But You

Beautiful Words
That I’ll use
Honest thoughts
That I'll put
On Love’s Canvas
With morning’s pearly dews
The Day
I will say … I love you

I will write on God’s most beautiful creation …

… You

A Poet’s Inspiration

Every poem has an inspiration behind it. People spend lifetime interpreting the poem, but never understand the true meaning and the poet’s feeling because they simply can’t.

Only two people in this world can understand the true meaning of a poem, the Poet himself and his inspiration behind the poem.

Life goes on

A treasure is a treasure until it’s found
A secret remains so until it’s told
Love is love even if kept in heart
Prayers are answered even if not expressed in words
Life, like a ship, goes on till you sail
Stops when it reaches the shore
Don’t expect anything to happen on its own
When you make it happen, you’ll love it more

Another Love Song

Days belong to the ambitious
I am what you want me to be
Nights belongs to dreamers
Let me spend some time with ‘me’

Memories of the days gone by………
I write another love song
That’s never meant to reach the intended.
“I miss you” or “I am not alone”

Another song, another book, another movie,
another night. ……………Another dream
Good morning! Another day, another ambition
……another love song…. in the bin

I am Me Again

My life was busy
Home to work and back
I spent weekends with friends
Whom I didn’t want to meet
With books and magazines
That I didn’t want to read
Probably had no choice
Thought that’s happiness, success and that’s life
But that was not

I was searching for someone
Everywhere I go
The one I lost long ago
I was searching for me
The one I used to be

I was living for a living
I was busy
Everyone thought I was happy, except me
Everyone was happy for me, except me

I forgot the songs
That I used to hum when I was young
I forgot the last song
That I played on the piano
I didn’t know when I write the last poem
Or read a book that I want to read

I don’t remember when I was me
I don’t remember when I was happy, actually

~ ~ ~

Then you came
I thought you are just another person in my life
I was wrong

~ ~ ~

I don’t know why
I want to be like you
I like your likes
As they used to be my likes too

Every thing that you say or do
Reminds me of me
The one that I used to be

~ ~ ~

My life is still busy
Home to work and back
ButI recollected my collection of songs
That I used to hum
I play the piano often
I know when I wrote the last poem……………..
Last weekend

I love poems, books and music again
Above all, I love myself again

Thank youI am back to what I was
One that I used to be
I am me again

~ ~ ~

I don’t know what you think of me
But I owe a lot to you
I don’t expect anything from you
To expect anything from youI know,
will be too much
You have already given me so much
Without giving anything
By just being what you are
By bringing me back to me

Please don’t ever say anything that you don’t mean
You don’t know, what you say or do
Can change someone’s life
You have already changed someone’s life
You have given somebody ‘his life’

Love

People talk about true love
Love is love .. ……
It can’t be true or false………….

People talk of first love….
How can u number love…….

Love is love……..
It can't be first, second or third…….

If I were to number love……………
I've been in love more than a billion time….
I am in love every second of my life......

Love to Life

Darkness is soothing when I close my eyes
The World looks beautiful when I open my eyes
Life is beautiful and I see beauty everywhere
When I give my life to love and my love to life.
