A Mirage as beautiful as You

This morning when I opened my eyes 
To see the painted grey skies 
Drop by drop they started to pour 
Aiming to reach the earth's deepest core 
The rain that fell hard on the ground 
Had me looking all around 
For what I knew little about 
In my heart, the slightest doubt 
Clouds hung low and trees grew down
The sand was red and the grass brown 
As impossible it may seem to few 
A mirage as beautiful as you 
Just as the sunlight kisses my face 
Walk with me at the slowest pace 
When dusk falls and it's no more sunny
Lose it all and passionately embrace me
Give way for the moon, full or new 
A mirage as beautiful as you. 
Sit with me and let me know 
Hold me tight and never let go
I'll wait for the day when all falls in place 
Lift your eyes and turn your gaze 
Love her or love me, give me a clue
A mirage as beautiful as you 
Across the road, I'll watch you from a far
You and her, it salts my scars 
Someday, when you're not so blind
See my love and keep aside your mind
Look beyond the obvious, in my heart
A mirage as beautiful as you. 
In a universe where we shall be
Together no matter what they see 
Arms entwined like branches of a tree
I don't love you enough to set you free 
Pocket full of sunshine against all blues 
You brighten my day with rainbow hues 
A mirage as beautiful as you.

What's in a Date?

Okay so today we celebrate the last sequential date in this century, 11-12-13.  It's the last date with consecutive numbers to appear in the 21st century, but why the hype?  Did they forget that every damn date in this century will never repeat itself?  Or is this just another money-minting criteria adopted by hotels, hospitals, bars, wedding planners and pandit ji's to brainwash people's minds and inform them about the importance of this one date?  Why the craze to tie the knot on this so called 'auspicious' date? Why the craze to deliver babies on this day? Are you going to tell me that its a 'lucky' day and will make your marriage last a year more than mine? Or your baby will be born an actor or IITian? Or probably that the food at restaurants will be better today?  Hell, no. If love doesn't see person or time, why does it see dates? Ladies, If babies born on other dates can become Shahrukh Khan and Sachin Tendulkar, why the fuss about paining your bo...

Hope isn't just a word, unless it is shattered.

They say hope can lead to miracles, turn the impossible into possible but can it make the dead man alive? They say hope can be your umbrella in the downpour, they say hope can fix the leaks. But can it fix the leaks in your heart, the tears that kiss your cheeks?  They say hope can bring merry, they say hope can make you rich. But can it bring you joy?  They say hope fulfils desires, they say hope can win against hope. But can you hope against the despondence?  They say hope isn't just a word, really?  They say its more than a word.  Of course, it's a way of life.  Unless. Unless it is shattered.

..I Let Him Go

Tonight is no different.   I twist and turn in bed like every other night.   The events of the day run a recap through my subconscious mind.   Nothing special. I twist and turn as grief takes over. One quiet sob. And another. And another. Before I know it, my sister is awake, holding me tight, asking me what's wrong. She's 15. How is she supposed to understand the so-called problems of adulthood? What do I explain her?   So she just holds me close while I cry the heck out of me.   It's not the kind of crying that babies do. It's not the cry for milk or for a toy or for a video game, nor is it for a dress or a party.   It's over a guy. A lost love.   No, he wasn't my boyfriend and he never could be. There are more kinds of love that can blossom between a guy and a girl, than you think. This was one of those different kinds.   Simply because we were different - together and individually. I don't know why I cry over him but I ...
