...Love never Dies...

 

In a faraway timberland

Rested an old vintage car

One breezy and quiet night

Running through the fields

A stray dog finds his shelter

An asylum for the loner

Dog rested in the car since then

 

He woke up early every morning

As the Sun winked via tall trees

Ripping the seat into a chair

He lolled there from dawn to dark

Ran in the forest for food

And felt blessed eating some trash

Realizing the alikeness they shared

 

Seasons flew away with the birds

And the air is freezing now

Watching a snowflake on the wiper

He hopped up turning amazed

And stared the snow from front glass

Memories of loved one flashed

Those skiing days of the couplet

 

 

Remembers the kiss on the nose

And the buckled gift of rose

The last intimate rendezvous

Made him too restless to meet her

Instantly at the sight of daybreak

He escaped through wheat fields

As love accelerated his speed

 

Clearing grains from his eyes

Stumbled upon a cave like rock

And reminded him of his love

Who went to God in similar way

Now hides somewhere in the sky

Sending him love in every cloud

And crying rains for not being there

Emotionless Life

 

Those rainy days

My tree looked pretty

Filled with unlimited greens

 

As clouds poured

Those leaves would shine

Just like baby's eyes

 

Squirrels would play

And ski on wet branches

Sometimes hide n seek

 

Mercury went down

And my tree got dry

So took off the leaves

 

At night it's cold

I wear my woollens

As they keep me warm

 

Tugging in the quilt

I wonder what warmth is

As I stare at my naked tree

 

My sleepless nights

And countless emotions

Were seen only by it

 

Time ago it shined

Now frozen and crunchy

Yet it stands strong

ll Live the Dream ll

A world of cliché
Where nobody

But ourselves

Know, the

Extreme importance

Of what

The heart says, feels

And wants.

But still,

There is a need

Of being heard

By the loved ones.

And being trusted,

Because, whatever

We do, it's what we

Are meant to do.

What stops the

Earlobes,

Is it the heart?

Confess.

I have a dream

It's shattered

But I have every

Piece of it

To make it happen.

Time has changed

As it was meant to be

Why are you stuck to

That wall, the one

That is blocked, and

Without a base.

Talk to me, because

I do listen

And I need the same

From you.

I have the spirit

Back in me

Don't let it

Loose its power.

Life isn't about

Having a dream.

It always said to

Live the dream.

The Reboot !!

An end for new start
Everything will be new
Right from sunrays
To calendar dates
We are back
Almost to square one
Where we start
Mapping our life
With Do's and Don't's
We start all over
Hoping from scratch
Not missing the catch
With all of us being attach
Love is the key
Giving moments of glee
With peace being chanted
Making us all enchanted
Happiness also coats us
With ultimate finesse
Whose tender caress
Dumps all the stress
