Cold

I am made up of stone,
thats what I have been told.
No feelings, no warmth, just flesh and bone,
Stay away from me unless you wanna catch a cold.

I know, I know and I take the blame
Its not just you, even I'm tired of this game.
The ongoing battle between my heart and mind
has scarred my soul and my feelings are blind.

But wait, I think, I can still explain,
Just hear me out, I never meant to cause any pain.
It's not my fault, I think I have been framed..
Oh forget about it, even my excuses are ashamed.

Honestly, I can't even apologize anymore,
Sorry can't heal the heart that's sore.
It's time to break the pattern, time to face the truth,
to separate the true feelings from the feelings misunderstood.

What you think you want is one thing
what you actually want is another..
I am in a process of fixing...
....I mean knowing myself better.
In a meanwhile, perhaps you wanna stay away and behold
If you come closer, you are bound to catch a cold.

The Story Untold!

She can't speak, her tongue's tied,
maybe she is scared, maybe a little shy.
But take a moment and you will know the story
just look into her eyes
look into her eyes.

There is a story in her eyes,
the story of how she thinks, how she feels.
If you take a moment to know her better
You will realize, its you, just you and no other.

If all of her is what you need,
All of her is what you can get.
Go ahead and build that confidence in you
Maybe she is working on it too.

If you need some courage of your own,
take a step and let it be known.
Courage will be found where the story lies
Just look into her eyes
look into her eyes.


P.S. My very 1st piece after a whole year of writer's block and I wrote about the most beautiful thing in the world, Love. For me, love is the most beautiful and the most important thing in the world. One can survive without anything but not without love.

So many love stories go untold because we are scared or shy or we are plain scared of a NO. If we don't ask, the answer is always NO. If you know what you feel and you are scared, know that we are scared of losing what we want the most. This poem is dedicated to everyone who is going through this now. I used a "She" because women likes it when men takes the 1st step.

Take that courage and let it be known..
You are very close to finding something of your own :)

"STOP" the magic word!

I woke up this morning, with a heavy heart.

I missed the smile, the arms, and the warmth.

It pained so much that I almost cried.

Then I yelled, “STOP”.

My “Stop” was so loud; all I could hear was silence for a while.

Then it felt better and I smiled, reminded myself of all those times.

Times when I failed and when I lost,

One time I broke so hard, “I can never get up”, I had thought.

But every single time, I had been pulled, dragged and thrashed to the ground,

I've fought and fought, pulled myself up and never looked down.

Time has tried over and again,

To break me, to fail me, to kill me.

But every single time, I've come out stronger

And proved time, nothing can destroy me.

If I had to give up now, I shouldn't have fought all those fights.

It’s too late to fail,

I am a warrior; if that didn't destroy me neither can this.

I am a warrior, unfortunately, so is Life.

It will keep trying to bring me down, beat me hard and try to break me.

There will be days, when I will wake up with a heavy heart again,

There will be times when I will feel like crying again.

And every single time I will yell “STOP”,

Will remind myself of all those times..

Times when I was pulled down and….??

NO.

Of times when I stood up and moved on again.

Life can be, whatever it wants to be,

But, Nothing have, Nothing can and Nothing will destroy me.

It just feels Right!

I can't tell you
If its wrong or right.
I can only tell you,
what it feels like.
Smile on my lips and warmness inside,
It feels right. It only feels right.

I don't know what you feel like,
I won't pretend I can read your eyes.
But that look on your face,
when your eyes meets mine,
Truest of all truth, Purest of any kind,
So divine, and it feels so right. It only feels right.

Did we start it off on the wrong foot?
Perhaps we didn't take enough time.
But what difference can time make?
When even the pain feels right.
When it just feels right.

The Wrong Hope, is it right?

I usually don’t post pictures or quotes, but this one got me thinking. Why do people do so? Why men or women do things to make the other person fall in love with them? It seems so simple. You make the other person love you, because you love that person. If you do not love them or if you already know you can never love them, why encourage? Why awaken their love? Why give them hope, the wrong hope? How is it so easy to hurt the other person?

Sometimes, people fall deeper for the one who do not love them. So whose fault is it after all; The person, who keeps falling deeper even when they know the other person do not love them? But is it possible to keep feeling deeper without the other person’s encouragement? Hope is what keeps us moving after all. You may say “no" million times, but that one caring gesture is all it takes to give her Hope.

Maybe the quote is right, perhaps only a man can awaken woman’s love with no intention of loving her. Women’s love is so different than men's. A man is not in love when he say he is not. Men can analyze, think, make right decisions, decide if they want to love or not. But a woman, a woman may think she is not, she may say she is not, yet she feels something inside. Perhaps, thats why women’s heart breaks the most, because when she falls in love, she just does.

If only a man could feel like a woman and a woman could love like men do, there would be less broken hearts around. But since thats not possible, if you know what she feels for you and if you know what you don’t feel for her, spare her. Let her go. There is no point encouraging and awakening her love. The truth is, no matter what she says, she is going to fall deeper as long as you give her hope. And Hope does not  come only with words. Hope is what keeps us moving. But there is something called “Wrong Hope”. Is “Wrong Hope” right?

The Road Untaken!!

Bottles of wine, stays unopened,

Those meals, may never be cooked.

Those beautiful moments, in words remain,

..and those words, stares at us in vain.

Those long lazy talk awaits..

So does the long drives.

Those beautiful moments, in dreams remain,

..and those dreams will wait forever in vain. 

The world awaits, on the other side of the road.

The road we are too scared to take,

Why in fate, we have no faith?

Our fears are the devils, we believed instead.

Countless smiles is what I have gained,

Maybe its wrong, to say, it all went in vain.

Together, we never got to share the time,

but in your time I lived, and you’ve lived in mine.

Those dreams and words, can have a beautiful face,

Those beautiful moments, can actually take place,

If somehow, we could find some courage together,
The Road Untaken, will take us to "Us Forever".

Keep forgetting to forget you

Its even harder than I thought,

I see your face, eyes open or shut..

I'm trying, trying hard to forget you..

but I keep forgetting to forget you.

What is it, that's going on?

Why do I feel so alone?

What’s that pain I feel inside..

Have my dreams and hopes just died?

I know I have to..

Baby tell me, what should I do?

I’m trying..trying hard to forget you..

But I just keep forgetting to forget you.

Things aren't getting any better..

Do you feel the same, I wonder..

I try to forget you, for all the lies you said..

But those moments spent together, doesn't seem to fade.

its another day,

I’m still trying , trying even harder to forget you..

its just that I keep forgetting to forget you. 

Nisha..

from long time back..

Idk

It’s hard to get what they want, they say,

To get what they want they pray.

To me, I feel lucky ones are those,

What they want who already knows.

Where do you wanna be?

What is it you wanna be?

Where do you see yourself, in couple years?

Are some of the questions asked by the ones who cares.

I wish I had something to pray for,

I wish I knew what I long for.

I wish I knew what path to take or where to go.

But unfortunately, what I want is, what I don’t know.

I wonder if there are more like me..

Who don’t know where they wanna be.

When the answer should be yes or no...

All I can say is, I don’t know.

Rain makes me happy, sunshine gives me joy,

Writing brings me peace, shoes are what I enjoy.

But don’t ask me , what I want from life?

Coz I’d simply say, I don’t know.

You can ask me the same question some more..

My answer will still be I don’t know.

Coz I simply don’t know.

Perfect Sunday!!

When lightening and thunder scares me,

You’ll be there to hold me,

I’ll wake up smelling the rain someday...

Will open my eyes in your arms that day.

Will sleep in late,

we will eat in bed.

Movies, popcorn and blankets..

just you and me and no one else.

Will let the rain touch our skin,

Perhaps even let some drops get in..

All my dreams will come true that day,

That my love, will be a perfect Sunday.
