A Beautiful Mind

The deep dark alleys of the mind, long and unwinding to the core,

A few we know so well , some , yet to explore,

Beautiful memories of yesterday, are hidden in a shrine,

Yet there are those that hurt, it’s a bittersweet galore.

There's a search for some answers, yet a few questions arise,

The need to forget some, oh but the urge to know more,

And a few virgin by lanes, a mystery to the core.

A few dark desires, some shine with light divine,

An unending noise in some, a few ring with a melodic chime,

There's a will to succeed, yet the weakness to give in to crime,

There's a belief in eternity, yet the fear of running out of time.

Secrets dwell deep inside, never shall they come to the fore,

A needless hate for some, yet there are those we adore,

A sense of wonder, a moment of fear,

A subconscious smile, a forced tear,

They're all treasured here -  emotions of every kind,

It’s a treacherous place, yet such a beautiful mind.

We All

In the midst of recession,

Let’s seek concession in our tension.

It’s been a long way for Lay off’s,

Let’s just relax and Pull off.

Changing times are giving importance to election,

To put at bay the act of terrorism.

Would a new Leader bring stir in a nation?

Or it’s just to add agony in the present situation.

With the invasion of internet, the world became flat,

Our cultures have renewed, so are our perceptions.

Social networking sites are used for communication,

The lifestyle we adopt is so lonely and unsecured,

Trusting faceless friends over chat has become a common notion.

Relationships earlier so strong,

Now expire just walking along.

To be in the rat race, we exploit our innocence,

Money and material make us flatter,   

We feel nothing else matter.

Search for comfort and luxury it all takes,

To rebel with others and overtake.

Is there any threshold limit to desires?

However, believing in the course of destiny cannot be our way.

Every situation is make or break,

To survive it might seem a hardest way.

Bell Rings Once a Year

A crystal punch bowl

Sparkles in the Candlelight

The freshness of the heart can fall like Dew

In this winter night.

The year has passed

When thy heard the bell

In the name of thee,

Let’s listen the sound of magic

Making our day and year bright.

When you grow old and gray,

Open the book and say

The words you heard every year

May come and bless you

Over the night.

I Dream!!

In brutal scorching summer days,
on each freezing winter morning,
sitting awake on raining nights,
I dream of spring...

No chill blinds, no stormy winds,
and the sun portraying a flying dove...
Amidst blooming flowers and soothing breeze,
I dream of love...

The purest passion, a mad obsession,
having the innocence of morning dew...
With the serene vision of a million roses,
I dream of you...

Scent of your joy, rendering all worries coy,
your laughter drowning every strife...
With your presence beautifying even my thoughts,
I dream of a beautiful life...

I open my eyes, to a merry life...
with my vision caressed by the spring hue...
Worlds apart, having love in my heart,
with open eyes, I still dream of you...:-)

Alone

All alone lying in my bed...
As I wait for dreams to descend upon me...
My mind is full of just a single thought...
Why in this world of six billion do I feel so apart...

Apart from my family...
Apart from my friends...
Apart from work...
Apart from myself and apart from life...
My life revolves around doing the same thing everyday...
Not a bit of spice or variety...
Nothing to look forward to...
Nothing to expect...
All I do is run like a sprocket in a clock...

Why is it that I am alone...
Why is it that sleep eludes me...
What makes me write depressing stuff...
Why am I in constant grief...
The happiness from my face has left me...
The twinkle in my eye has vanished...
I live everyday already knowing what's in store tomorrow...
I feel all alone today and have the same notion about 'morrow...
My friends tell me my day will come...
I will not be alone...
My patience and belief are fast thinning out...

They say no one likes a loner...
No one likes a cribber...
No one wants a depressing person around them...
They tell me I should cheer up...
They tell me I should live my life as it comes...
I try my best to put on a face...
Not to crib, not to depress...
I go about my day without a whimper...
I try my best to fight what life throws at me...
I still wait for someone to accompany me...
But when I am alone at night...
I still wait for dreams to descend upon me…

Take Me Away

Absconded from all the desires n fear

After deprived of all the strength to bear

Waiting for the death to come near

Obsessed of all the life's brutality

Falling victim to life's cruelty

Got struck up in to gruesome fatality

Don't have an aspire to live this way

Wanna leave this world someway

With my heart full of distress hard to say

Mentally wounded somehow I stayed awake

Questioning up myself taking all that as fake

But sorrows hiked up though I wasn't on any stake

So threatful, so deadly is this world around me

Never let me open up won’t all I had in me

Made me realize it’s not the place to be

Lifeless this life I don't wanna live

It's true but it's hard to believe

Killing me up stripping my sense to perceive

Locked up in heart with no way to depart

These sorrows are tearing my body n soul apart

Angel’s please take me far away

I got no will to withstand n stay

No more wanna lead this life like stray
