As time flies by
Its not the sagging skin that scares me,
nor the deepening wrinkles,
nor the graying hair or the little sunspots on my face..
...
My friend, koel is back with her summer songs...
Perched outside my window she urges me to sing along!
She cocks her head and looks at me...
As if, saying come on! Why won't you sing with me?
...
In the darkness of the night, I look with confusion at my hennaed hands..
The deep red signifies..
...
What is it that you've come to do
Where do you intend to go
you.. in a Blue suit, Black tie
Where are you heading to?
...
Don't do it little girl! Stop! for a minute and think,
Things may be difficult right now..
...
Two shells of coconut
sat calmly side by side
caressing, touching, loving,
holding each other tight.
...
People say it's a curse being a woman
I never thought it true
Always, did pretty much what I wanted to do
Studied, played, worked, roamed the world
...
Is there a way?
to fix broken hearts,
repair trust,
relive dreams,
...
I Am The Sea...
I am the sea
Everyday millions of people come to me
Some to laze
Some to gaze into my seamless horizon
Some to admire my varied shades of Blue
Some to soak their tired feet in my refreshing saltiness
Some to drown away their overbearing sadness
Some to forget a bad memory
Others to relive good ones.
To some, I am a distance that separates
To others a means of reaching their loved ones
In my fold live millions of creatures, Colours..LIFE..
I hide treasures yet undiscovered, possibilities infinite!
I am a means of livelihood, a giver, a bestow-er, a leaser of Life
And also.. a taker, an angry monster, a destroyer, cause-r of strife..
Like unending glass…I reflect
I am a mood changer..
I absorb what you feel..
With my soothing murmurs
I ease all your pain..
Take in your sorrows, your joys, your hurts and tears..
But do you ever wonder where I go to weep?
Where do, my treasures, I keep?
To who I turn when I need release?
Ever wondered if there is someone I lost?
Something I seek?
That I may have my own secrets to keep..
