~ Fill Me With Love ~

Fill me up when I am empty,
Like no one else has done;
Pour warmth into my spirit,
Like rays from summer sun.

Like rain upon the desert,
On a dry and barren land;
You cause my soul to blossom,
With touch from gentle hands.

And like the breeze of springtime,
Gently 'cross my body blows;
Igniting there a flame of fire,
That sets my heart aglow.

You've placed a seed within me,
That has grown into a vine;
Of sheer unbridled passion,
Tendrils curled and intertwined.

Fill me up when I am empty,
Like an overflowing cup;
No one else has ever filled me so,
Yet my Love, you fill me up.

A Friend Unseen ...........

It's strange to have a friend

That you have never hugged

Lightly touched their arm

Or looked into their eyes

But ...

They have touched your soul

Felt their heart 

Been embraced by

The warmth of their being

A friend unseen

Is not a friend untouched

The eyes of the soul will gaze

The heart will embrace

The image will stand tall

But ..

only in dream

SOMETIMES I FEEL .........

Sometimes I feel
We shouldn't touch,
Yet feel each other
Through our eyes.

Sometimes I feel
We shouldn't speak
Yet listen each other
Through our breaths.

Sometimes I feel
We shouldn't meet,
Yet feel each other
In each other's heat.

~ A River Of Tears ~

 





Meandering through the corners of the Eyes,
Few drops of liquid fall,
Men called it Tears,
Pain, joy, fear and lovely memories all it expresses,

Following a line, crossing the cheek,
Wetting the face, like drops of pearl they shine,
A silent symbol of pain,
A testimony of mind's agony,
A natural catharsis of the emotional and physical stress,
A way to feel better, a path to solace,

Heart gives the first signal when the river of tear is going to be on the high tide,
It may be the time you had a baby, it may be the time you met with an accident,
May be the time your loved one bid you a final goodbye,
May be you won a prize,
May be you lost a game after years of working hard,

Be it a joy or a pain,
Heart begins to feel heavy, face anxious,
Stimulating the tear buds, eyes experience a whirlpool
Often you try, but you can't control,
Tears are such, if they once start, you can't stop,
Defying all the laws of dynamics,
They break free the chains of eyes,
And start flowing till they dry,

Assumed as a sign of weakness, they are hardly those,
For they represent a source of strength,
For all I could do when I saw the distance between you and me growing,
Was to let these Tears answer everything,
Conveying all the love, all the grief, in few drops of water,

Now, when you are infinitely separated,
I have made a river of Tears,
and I sail my life-boat often in it, in times of desperation,
Searching you on the shores of memory,
Often I get your glimpse, often I don't,
I emerge out from it as a winner, defying all odds...
But still with few drops of Tears on my cheek,
As a mark that I miss you...

~ Lonely Nights ~

 

Staring into the darkness,
As sleep escapes once more.
I climb out of my lonely bed,
And silently pace the floor.
Trying not to think of you,
But it happens every time.
Just when I try to forget for a while,
You go drifting across my mind.

The thoughts of you are never far,
Your memory lingers there.
In every song I hear your name,
Your face is everywhere.
The sound of your voice rings in my ears,
I feel the touch of your hand.
I feel you pulling me close in your arms,
I'm trying to understand.

How did I come to love you so?
How can I make this love die?
I just can't do the impossible,
I don't even want to try.
So I crawl back into my lonely bed,
And wipe away my tears.
I look back on the happy times,
To help drive away my fears.

If all I have are dreams of you,
Then I'll guard them like a treasure.
For every thought I have of you,
Can only bring me pleasure.
I pull my pillow closer,
Pretend it's you by my side;
Then drift away in dreams of you,
Into this lonely night.

~ Love The Untouchable ~

I know of his existence
But mine to him
Is unknown
I will feel incomplete 'till my hand
Knows his
But he's not here

He was here
Once
He lived
And many lived with him
But not me

I want to feel
His warm body against mine
But he's not here

It is beyond frustrating
To know
I can never have him

I want to scream
A condemning passion
Fills my being
I dream Of his
Once
Existing smile
But he's not here

He's still with us
I feel him inside of me
I know the sound of his voice
But he's not here

So I'll dream of his eyes
Dark and full of life
And I'll want for his arms
Warm and strong
And I'll crave for his kiss
Everlasting and sweet
But
He's not here

~ Do Not Keep To Yourself ~

Do not keep to yourself the secret of

your heart, my friend!

Say it to me, only to me, in secret.

You who smile so gently,

softly

whisper,

my heart will hear it,

not my

ears.

The night is deep,

the house is

silent,

the birds' nests are shrouded

with sleep.

Speak to me through hesitating

tears,

through faltering smiles,

through

sweet shame and pain,

the secret of

your heart!

(~Rabindranath Tagore)

~ The Rain ~

All night the sound had

come back again,

and again falls

this quiet, persistent rain.

What am I to myself

that must be remembered,

insisted upon

so often? Is it

that never the ease,

even the hardness,

of rain falling

will have for me

something other than this,

something not so insistent—

am I to be locked in this

final uneasiness.

Love, if you love me,

lie next to me.

Be for me, like rain,

the getting out

of the tiredness, the fatuousness, the semi-

lust of intentional indifference.

Be wet

with a decent happiness

~ Unclaimed ... Unloved ~

Life is like an autumn leaf
Lie around unclaimed
The breeze blows me around
To be trampled under the feet of men.


Natures cruel feast has bestowed me with pain
Pain of being a part
Just a part of someone
Pain of departing,
Departing from that one


Pick me up like a rose,
And hold me to your heart
Keep me there till he does not come
And when he comes do a good deed
Dig the earth below
And bury me deep
For I don't want to lie around
Unclaimed, unloved.
