Always a Maybe!


Maybe I am not angry anymore,
Maybe I am just disappointed in you!
Maybe I have forgiven you,
But I still want to hear it all.

Why those unanswered calls?
What's keeping you up at night these days?
Are you keeping well?
What's keeping you so busy?
Maybe you have found a better friend.

I tried several times,
But may be it wasn't enough
I am tired now, my friend.
So I just let it be.

The truth is,I still have hope
That you will, one day
Maybe call me up again,
Maybe we will start from where we left off?
And maybe things will remit again!



P.S- For a long lost friend :)

Dewdrop

You oath to protect me

And how fiercely!

Always ready to fight, 

Some scores you want to tally,

With those who tend to sally.


O My little Dewdrop!

The magic in your toy sword,

Can do wonders to my world.

The powers you draw from the universe,

Hope they multifold and transverse,

So that never in your  life, you get  to choose reverse.


How amazed am I?

To look at you every dusk,

But why?

You may ask.

The way you greet me with your bling

It makes me want to sing, Aloud!

But now, Even if I get lost into a cloud,

O my little Dewdrop!

I feel so utterly proud,

Of you! 


P.S - Inspired by Raya and the last  dragon :)

Fuzzy Nights

Image Source: Tumblr

That blue t-shirt you wore,

That warm hug from your core.

The kiss on my forehead,

That last question on your lips,

That I misread.

Today, All of it brings a smile.


I know it has been a while,

But I still adore your style.

Life can sometimes really be hostile,

Those are the times I wish,

I took that extra mile.


I find myself at sea,

I am aware, I should not be.

But the soul  does not always see the light,

It often picks up the blight.

That is when I take a cookie bite,

And call it a warm fuzzy night.

What If?

What if the world,

Came crashing at my end today?

Would you give me a second chance?

Could we start, where we left off?

Could we rekindle the romance?

Would there be a first dance?


Would you go with your fresh start,

For which you never took off?

Or would you stop and look back?


I had dreamt of flying the highways with you,

I had known no one closer than you,

Would I learn to live again in the true moments?

Or would I have to live with society's comments?


How about we give it sometime,

How about we live to the fullest this time?

How about we share the stories of a lifetime,

With the world, in the short span

That the universe grants us this time.

Depression

Depression is like a shadow,

It may come and go,

Suddenly it will disappear,

In a flash, loud voices will blow.

                                                                            


Why do we hide it?

When we already know,

Where did it rise from,

Is what we need to show.


It is not a shame,

Nor something to sham,

It can make life harder,

And take away all the glam.


Mental health is rarely a talk,

Let's voice it like written in rock,

Let's vouch to spread the word,

And stop all from being an ignorant herd.

Words Left Unsaid

You asked why not?

I said but how?

Do you still,

Think about it now?


We were young and naïve,

We were fun and felt like greave.

Things hurtful were felt,

But everything was gracefully dealt.

Words were left unsaid,

But what mattered was the heed we paid.


Did you try to hear

What I never said?

Did you try to phrase

What you wanted me to hear?


Its been a while since we did 'us',

May be write to me sometime,

May be describe a moment,

May be pass on a comment,

May be fill in the spaces 

Which were left void.

Departures

Departures are hard,

They make me feel like you are miles apart,

Just ten feet away,

You have that piece of paper,

Which I do not,

Called the boarding pass,

Drives me to think we are drifted by class.


That last hug, that last tear,

I wish you come back every year,

To start things again,

To kiss me gently in the rain.


Please tear up that piece of paper

You are holding so tight,

To board that flight,

Of your dreams.

Please come back to me once,

Because departures are hard

And they make me feel we are miles apart.

You Are There


You are there,

I am here,

Will we again meet somewhere?


You were there,

I was there,

We had called it forever near.

But then came a turn,

Which seemed like a burn,

We tried going back with lot of yearn.


But faith had a plan,

It put us through different clan,

Now, when I think of how it began,

It brings about a smile like a magic wand.


You are there,

I am here,

Will we ever meet somewhere?

Illusion of Permanence

In today's ever changing world,
Have you ever wondered 
That we assume a lot of things to be permanent.

baby gives out a happy giggle
The moment he is thrown into air by his loved one,
Without the fear of falling down or getting hurt. 

There would have been times,
When we would have believed a fictional story
Or related it to our lives,
Like our creation was meant to be the beautiful tori.

How we trust that one person,
To be with us forever,
Until we break faith,
And the relation becomes a whatsoever.

How I wish the illusion was permanent
So that our existence felt like firmament.
But its great that we are open to be amazed,
The message lies in the universe's ways
That we are creatures not to be caged!
