You and I

Inter weaved together, you and I Never to be parted, you and I Through searing sunrays Through stormy dark days Walking the path of love Dreams of you consuming me Day and night Like spring surrounding me Never leaving my sight. Thoughts of you covering me With passing time Like a storyteller telling me It’s […]

You and I

Love

When you love someone, your heart is on rock and roll,

Like a butterfly, the heart flies to the sky

Ignore everyone’s advice.

Desires are vagabonding.

Bewildered desires remembering you all the time.

For a moment you’re near, the next moment you’re away.

But the heart loves you every moment.

Emotions are unmanageable.

When the heart started to like someone, the dreams get a new height.

Heart gets incited with the strange emotions.

The heart started to yearn for you every moment.

Thought of the Day

Buddha’s quotes:

Buddha was asked ,”what have you gained from meditation?

He replied nothing!

However, let me tell you what I have lost: Anger,Anxiety, Depression, Insecurity, Fear of old age and death.

For me meditation means, Me + ditation = Self enrichment.

Moments and Memories

Living the life in different moments.

Moments of happiness,excitement,joy, moments of sadness, remorse, tiredness .

Moments of various expressions.

Life moved on the variation of expressions.

The moments passed with the passage of time.

Become memories for life.

Some memories are worth remembering.

And some are worth forgetting.

We cherished those memories, which brings smile on our face.

And we abandon those, which filled our eyes with tears.

Wishing those cherished memories, again become the moments of life.

And this Time live that moment perfectly, so no regret left.

And praying those abandoned memories never haunt me again.

Remained in the past, become the companion of past .

Cherished the good moments, live with memories.

Abandoned the bad moments, remained in the past.

Mutual Thoughts

Admired confidence in a exclusive way,

Overjoyed to hear more precisely .

Asked, how do you deliberate so well?

Such a generous knowledge replied promptly,

A little bit of my passion,

Passion with a philosophical mode,

And a long way journey of thoughts.

Delighted by this interacting.

Matching thoughts create a mutual feelings,

Sometimes frequently disappointment turned into negativity ,

Such a thought driven slightly aback,

A never formed opinion,

Creates no expectations.

Such experienced tendencies ,

Sometimes turned into nasty experiences.

People believed,

Women are perceived to be understanding.

An utter amusements ,

Conjured a roaring laughter,

A true laugh with whole heartedly.

Contagious laughter started,

Time passed quickly in this togetherness.

A togetherness of mutual thoughts.

SMS (Sun, Moon and Stars )

Companions of the night,

The moon & Stars,

Going to the another horizon,

After getting tired with variation,

Searching new morning of the Sun.

Sun, The king of the sky,

Came with his infinite light,

His courtyard sparkled ,

With his Aura.

Morning birds welcomed him,

With their melodious tweets.

Winds spread out,

The fragrance of fresh soil,

Filled the surroundings ,

With its aroma .

Wake up,

Before the day – spring,

And be a part of

Nature’s magic,

Before the vision vanished,

In the daylight.

Moments of life (Farewell Day)

Everybody was in a big rush on that day. The day of my farewell from my father’s home after my marriage.

I felt on that day that farewell time came very early. It’s the farewell of the journey of a daughter,farewell of innocence, carelessness.

Now a new journey was going to be started on that day. A mature,sensible and responsible journey.

My father’s eye was full with tears, I still remembered he was continuously watching my mother’s photo, like he was talking to her. For him my mother was still alive in his memory. Oh..! That day was full with emotions.

My elder sister was not only preparing for my farewell but she was also packing her luggage for her own farewell. Because she had to go back to her in laws house.

My little brother( not so little )while he was taking care of my marriage arrangements, but he was also in hurry and packing his luggage to go back his hostel for his study.

The guests were also in hurry. They were not only preparing my farewell but themselves also. Because when they were packaging sweets & gift for me ,they were doing the same thing for themselves also.

While I was also crying on that day. We all knew that now my Papa had to live alone with my mom’s memories.

But whenever I remember that day I thought it was not only my farewell day but everybody’s . Whenever we siblings were gathered at Papa’s house , I asked my father why you were crying you on that day? Were you crying for me or everybody’s? Because everybody was going on that day. Well he smiled with our presence…..

Untold Friendship….

Your voice touched my soul,

Awakened my heart.

Miracle started in the heart,

It’s magic reached to me.

The untold friendship,

Made the impossible true.

As the art expressed,

The variations of the colors.

Just like that,

The friendship defined,

Blessings of the true companionship.

It’s like,

The bondage of two souls.

The silence of this friendship,

Turned into a poetry,

Desired to be heard…..

Rejoiced Life…..

O! My beloved .

Your heart is an ocean for me,

And my abode is in the clouds.

It’s way is paved by love,

For you, like a rain drop.

Your appearance creates music,

For my breath.

Your words add melody,

To the music.

Felt like life is rejoicing.

Now, you & I are not different words.

Our united heart made us one.

Honoured me with your love,

Accompanied me forever with your presence.

And pinch & tickle me in the present , as I went more deeper into those days.

Back in the time,through the memory’s lane.

Looks like time moved very fast.

Shattered Dreams

Wished for the love,

That was never mine.

Trusted the loyalty,

That was never given.

Desired to be with you ,

While you were never there.

Dreamt to be a cheerful life ,

But we were never together.

Returned my serenity,

That was shattered by your deceit.

Living with the pain,

That was your memory.

Hoping for your happiness,

While you have taken mine.

Accept with your smile

Or regret with your tears.

As it said

Beauty lie in the eye of beholder .

But mirror told the status of the beauty.

Made weird faces in front of the mirror.

And laughed alone.

But always available for my performance.

Introduced the different ages of life.

Who had seen my tears,my smiles.

My best companion for my expressions.

Still cleaning the mirror,

Seeing my expressions……

Story

“Never Ending wait”…..🙇‍♀️🧳🚍

         Someone was waiting at the bus stop, while it was raining like cats & dogs. At least he wasn’t able to see the face from his window.

Never ending wait…

Because of the stormy weather, no electricity he wasn’t able to sleep. So,he  went to check it again, but because of heavy rain, there was low visibility & still he couldn’t see anything clearly. This made him more perplexed. While he was lying on the bed,but continuously thinking who was there? So,he woke up again and tried to see from his binocular. And he saw that there was a girl with the luggage . But still he couldn’t see her face clearly.

   Made him more curious why she was waiting there from so much long time in such a stormy night ? His mind started playing quiz with him. Who was she? Why she was alone? Why no one came for her? Did she elope from her home? His mind was filled with so many thoughts.

    He continuously checked her status, the whole night. And she was always there alone. Now, it was going to be sunrise & rain had stopped too. But no one came for her,why? Such types of questions he was continuously thinking.

  When he became more worried then he thought he would go there personally & ask her. He got up & took a umbrella and went to the door. But the door was stuck very badly that it wouldn’t open. He became more furious & went to near his window to call someone for help. But he became more surprised.

(No, the girl was not gone. She was still at the bus stop. She was not in his building compound. Then,what?)

   Actually there were lots of police men around his building.

After seeing them he became more tensed. But still he shouted for help. But every body was in a big rush.

He tried to figure out the situation  & heard some folks were gossiping that “it happened last night.” That person was going somewhere hurriedly & because of rain he didn’t see the speedy truck which hit him very badly and he died at the accidental spot .

    Now, this time he wanted to know more about of the dead person . So he tried to see the dead body. But it was covered with white sheets & there was blood strains scattered. He had no courage to see any further.

    So, he again started to see the girl & she was still sitting there. Suddenly he realized that someone opened his door. He went to check it & yes, it was opened. He didn’t understand who locked him inside & now who opened it? But he thought he would figure out those things later. So,at first he went downstairs and saw there were lots of people talking to each other about the incident. He also thought to inquire about the incident . But before inquiring about of anything he wanted to meet that girl. He reached the bus stop.

  The girl was sleeping & her face was covered with her scarf. But he became ecstatic to see her face. So,he tried to woke her up. But suddenly his eyes were stopped on a Diary, which she was holding very tightly.

  After some hesitation he grasped that Diary and started reading. The girl penned down her love story very beautifully . After reading the first page he could not stop himself to read further.  He started to fall in love with her. After each turning pages his love was growing . While he was lost in her words, a paper had fallen down on the floor. He picked up & noticed that it was a folded photograph. He unfolded the photograph & Diary banged on the floor. She woke up with the sound. She saw that her Diary & the photograph were on the floor. She thought maybe be it was fallen down from her hands while she was sleeping. She  collected her things & cleaned the dust on the photograph and kissed .

It was his photograph. She was waiting for him and he was just there standing with teary eyes. But it was his soul ,who was not agree to leave her alone. He was not able to fulfill his promises ,which he made before.

His deceptive mind played game with his emotions while he was not alive.

He was continuously seeing her & her never ended wait. He wanted to be with her , hold her in his arms, convey his final goodbye but………………..

This story is dedicated to all those waits which never ended & reached its destination. It continued……..
