I am better…

Lately Ive been targetted, or should I say blamed, for things that weren’t meant to happen. And it’s okay…I mean we all need reasons or excuses to lean against when everything around us collapses.

My friend, in a tauntful tone, asked me, “One day he is gonna walk away and never look back. And you’re gonna be right here staring at things fall apart. We all will move on. What are you gonna do? How you gonna face your conscience after all that you did ended up wrong?”

I will never forget these words and probably even this day. I sought out to help a person I know will one day walk away and never look back. I knew this thing for a fact and yet I chose to help this person out. The question is what you gonna do when everything you did ended up wrong? What you gonna do when everything around you goes wrong? My best guess? You do the right thing when everything around you goes wrong. And I chose to help a person when he was in need. I didn’t think twice if it was worth it. I mean how can you even think if helping a person is gonna be worth it at all!? All that should matter is when someone needs a helping hand, you should be there to simply help.

At that time I simply sat quiet listening to my friend’s taunts but funny thing I didn’t feel bad or even at loss. Cuz I know by the end of all this I’ll be a better person than who I was yesterday and that’s all that matters. That’s all that should matter.

Like an old companion…

Ever since I’ve set my eyes on you
I seem to have misplaced my sanity
The moment I looked at you
You felt like an old companion

This path belongs to me
This path belongs to you
Yet we both have different destinies
Why have we become so lost
Why have we become so unaware of the road

Together we are soulmates
Together we are strangers
Sharing the same road, sharing the same Creator

You are in every color
You are in every dream
You are hidden in every flower
You are in every forest
You are in every desert
You are always in my eyes

Ever since I’ve set my eyes on you
I seem to have misplaced my sanity
The moment I looked at you
You felt like an old companion

Whether you call it love or magic…

Something has happened
My beloved, something has happened
Whether you call it love
Or you call it magic
Whether you call it flower
Or you call it a fragnance

Something has happened
My beloved, something has happened

These stars & moon across the river
Why are they trying to send hidden indications
Why are the beautiful dreams looking for excuses
To come and torment me at night…

The flowers, the torn clouds
What are they trying to say as I pass by
This is indeed a strange relationship
Like that of day & night…

Whether you call it love
Or you call it magic
Something has happened
My beloved, something has happened…

These words simply explains the strange yet intriguing relationships in our lives. They might not be having any meaning yet they define something so different. Could be love, friendship or a mere nod with the same stranger everyday. :)

Height of loneliness

The height of loneliness is when your own shadow deserts you
Even though I want to cry, even though I want to cry
The tears refuse to flow such is the height of my loneliness

Whoever leaves his love in such a manner
Wouldn’t the heart refuse to beat anymore?
The height of loneliness is when your own shadow chooses to leave you…

What I found without you is
Painful path, and sad nights
I misplaced him myself, I lost him myself
Such is the height of my loneliness

I am reminded of those years
When you used to cheer me
Now whenever my heart is saddened
I find pain cheering me up such is the height of my loneliness

Even though I wish to cry, even though I wish to cry
The tears refuse to let go, such is the height of my loneliness…

Forget about lust…

You will have to forget about lust
For once enter the path of love & witness
You will then no more laugh at my torment
For once fall in love & you’ll understand

Come close to the lips & test the strength of smile
This is the matter of the heart, not an amusement for anyone
For once try to live on your wounds, live by taking a sip of your own blood

Don’t sigh…
Seal your lips
This is love, not lust my friend

By falling in love, you will realise
That love isn’t a joke unlike lust
This passionate love isn’t some game

By falling in love, you will realise
That it is a sea of fire
Where one has to burn himself  to understand the intensity

This falling in love will make you cry blood
Don’t think this love is a fair game
This love isn’t easy, that’s all you need to understand
It is a river of fire & one has to be fully immersed in it

I don’t have any expectations in loyalty
But for once try & see
Embrace this world & see
Embrace me & see

For God’s sake leave this shyness
Lift the veil from your face

I fail to understand the strength of your glances
Sometimes your shy, sometimes your bold, indeed you’ve spectacled me

Today you & I are not some strangers
The communion of love is there, so there isn’t any point in the veil
Just lift your veil & witness it

I have done much injustice, I have committed much crime
Still I am thirsty for your one single glance
But I wonder why do you look down at me?
For once just test the strength of smile & see

This is one problem in which injustice is tolerable
Everything is for you, loyal one, however
How you torment me day & night
Torment a stranger & see

You will have to forget about lust
Enter the path of love & see

These words amuse me because I feel the person has fallen in love with the unfaithful who takes pride in its arrogance as well as ignorance. The sad thing is that although the other person can see everything but still he is blinded with love. I don’t think the word “veil” used should be taken with its literal meaning. Veil over here could even signify at how the unfaithful sometimes try to avoid the other person. Lust is easy…too easy…anyone can excel in it. But it’s love that tests your every capability & not just physical.

A strange love story

A story of love is quite strange
Once gone from the heart is never to come back again
Once I had a companion to walk this path of life with me

He has deserted my lonely heart
Leaving me with no place to go, no place to stay

Where should I look for him? Where should I find him?
Today when I am here, he is simply somewhere

In the blue skies, the clouds are settling in…
The birds are finally setting off to their homes

Where should I look for him? Where should I find him?
Today when I am finally here, he is somewhere

This love story is indeed a strange one…

Far away in the mountains, the flowers blossom
The loved ones and the lovers are walking together

And here I am looking for him, trying to find him
Today when I am here, he is nowhere

This story of love is a strange one
Once gone from the heart is never to come back again
Once I also had a companion to walk with me a million miles…but not anymore…not anymore.

Don’t Know Why…?

Look how the clouds leave the sky
I wonder if it will ever rain again

Look how the fragnance fades away from the flowers
I wonder if they’ll ever smell good

Happiness has become a dream, loved ones have disappeared
Homes burn while every heart flickers like a dying flame
Don’t know why? I wonder why?

The veil of memories has once again flown
I don’t why? I wonder why…

Look how the fireflies have once again escaped the hands
I wonder if they will they ever shine again?

Why have the evenings gone to sleep? Unable to live the nights
Homes burn while every heart is extinguised…
And I still don’t know why? I wonder why?

Desire… {A special dedication to my best friend}

I really didn’t think I’d end up posting a bit religious posts…but for me these posts are more spiritual than religious.  But oh well…

Day & night I look for the Gracious One
O Lord, listen to my desires
Cover me also under the shade
Just listen to my desire for once…

Every desire is a special one
What is this frustration?
How unbelievable is this life…

Look at the flowing blood
Why are you silent?
Listen to my hidden prayers…

You are the faith of my heart
There is no one other than you
You are priceless
You have no competition

Today my eyes are moist
I only ask for your blessing
Just listen to my prayers, my Lord

Just listen to my desires my Master…

These wording are specially dedicated to my Best Friend without whom I am simply nothing. I’ve started to realize that no matter how far I was from Him, the closer I got to Him. Maybe deep inside we both wanted it…but I got distracted with other stuff while He simply watched. Thank you for waiting…thank you for being patient and thank you for looking out for me. :)

Who Am I?

When the sky falls
When the land burns
A secret dream is born
And it echoes across the seas

Who am I?
Who are you?
I am sad
And you are desperate…

When hunger dances around
And hatred celebrates
A secret dream is born
And it silently echoes across the world

Who am I?
Who are you?
I am helpless
And you are nameless

These words often come to my mind everytime I wonder about the current crisis… We have indeed lost ourselves in this chaotic world. And it is sad because things just don’t get easy. We all are simply desperate to identify our real selves and embrace ourselves…{Main kaun hu}

Listen to my voice…

Listen to my voice
Free me
Listen to my voice
Give me justice

Why should I be your slave?
Why should I be your slave, O tyrant?

Listen to my voice, free me
Listen to my voice, give justice
Free me, give justice

I am not asking for something Godly
All I ask is for my right, O tyrant…

The world is with you
But God is with me, O tyrant…

Listen to my voice, free me
Listen to my voice, give justice
Free me, give justice…
