The Eternal Dance

Well.. thanks to the continuous showers of rain I was finally able to pen a few lines ...

Falling gently down,
The rain drops dance.
They sail through the air,
Putting me in a hypnotic trance.

Flying through the screens,
They twist and twirl.
They dance the eternal dance –
Those lustrous pearls.

I close my eyes and listen,
To the raindrops fall with glee.
I dance to the beating rhythm,
A rhythm – that sets me free.

My feet find a way to me,
To an unknown melody I sway.
With raindrops glittering wet on my cheeks,
I dance as my weariness fades away.

I dance through my sadness
I dance through my fears
I dance through all my feelings
Of both happiness and tears.

They still continue to fall,
With such grace and poise.
Dancing in the clouds,
Unperturbed by the thunder’s noise.

Dancing makes me feel so good inside,
It brings a smile that I cannot hide.
I move in harmony to the rhythm of my heart,
It gives my life an all-new fresh start.

Er... Um.....

Well.. Its been some days I've actually penned something good .. N I had this fear if I had forgotten how to write ..... So the following four lines just came when I was feeling really dumb and dint know what to write .. hehehe .....Writing poetry can be fun ,

Except when I feel a lil dumb ,

I ponder and strive for something to say ...

Sorry - there's nothing new here today !!!

I know that was really dumb .. but here's promising to you tat I will soon return with something really good ...

Till then ...... :)

Reflections Of Yesterday

As the sun is slowly setting
And the evening shadow grows
I think back on the days gone by,
To a place I’d like to go.

Back to a place in my childhood
When days were so carefree,
Back to the days when my mummy’s lap
Was my favorite place to be .

Those days of pillow fights,
And playing in the front yard
Those days when growing up was fun
And nothing seemed too hard.

All too soon we turn around
And find ourselves all grown
With adult responsibilities
And worries of our own.

The memories of yesterday
Come quickly in my mind
When as an adult I am searching
For answers I cannot find.

We struggle through our losses
Gain strength from each hurdle crossed
And learn that we are not fully alone
Especially when we feel m ore lost

Now the shadows have faded to darkness
The day’s warmth is growing up
I look up to the stars in the sky
And wonder what tomorrow will hold

The stars are shinning don brightly
Almost as if to say –
Sleep well my dear and don’t be afraid
For tomorrows a brand new day.

Forever and Always

Have you ever loved someone, but for your love he never really knew,
You'd always say love you tons and he'd always just love you too.
Did you ever just wanna make him understand or make him acknowledge the words you say,
But it's like it never works out, you're the one hurting the most at the end of the day.

Have you ever had someone who was your morning, afternoon, and you're night,
He meant the world to you, he was your sunshine, he'd be your moonlight.
Have you ever had him so close to your heart it's like everything would always be just right,
Because he was your everything, he'd be your moon and the stars in the sky at night.

Have you ever thought about him 24/7, wondering what he'd be up to or even where he was,
You'd call him for no real reason at all, only calling just because.
Have you ever found yourself getting mad because you never had enough time for what you had to say,
You'd always have to wait for next time because there'd never be enough time that day.

Have you ever had someone to talk to, whenever it felt like your whole world was coming to an end,
He'd just sit there and listen, and then tell you it's all okay and that he'd always be your best friend.
He'd tell you he'd be there forever, no matter what the people say,
And no matter what everyone else thinks because he'd always love you anyway.

Have you ever wasted your day waiting, all because he said he'd call,
Have you ever wanted to tell him how you felt when it felt as if he never really cared at all.
Have you ever longed for his kiss or even thought about his smile,
And then just cried thinking about him only because you haven't seen him in a while.

Have you ever spent the whole day with him, but at the end it felt like the time just passed you by,
It's like your time was up but you didn't wanna let him go because you weren't ready to say goodbye.
Have you ever missed him soo much it's like you felt as if you were loosing your one and only best friend,
Because he was a big part of your life and it felt as if your whole life was coming to an end.

Have you ever fell asleep at night and dreamt about just being together,
One of those dreams you've always dreamt of having, the ones you'll always remember.
The ones walking along the beach with your bare feet in the sand,
Or laying on a blanket watching the stars while he's holding your hand.

Have you ever just cried about anything, you could never really explain what was wrong,
You'd just sit there in tears because it never really mattered if it felt as if you couldn't be strong.
Have you ever wondered if he really did love you because at times it seemed like that could never be true,
Because it was like he was perfect and you'd wonder why he'd really love someone like you.

Have you ever just scribbled on a paper, day dreaming, while drawing hearts around his name,
You'd be thinking about him all day, but spending one day without him just wouldn't be the same.
Have you ever just missed him like crazy, and at times it was like you never really knew what to do,
You'd try and do just about anything to spend time with him but he'd just never get the clue.

Have you ever gotten so frustrated with him,
And what made things worse was that he could never understand why.
He'd just sit there thinking everything was okay,
When really your emotions killed you inside.

Have you ever wondered about what he'd be thinking about and if you'd ever be crossing his mind,
Or have you ever felt that you were just an old chapter in his lost book, somewhere left for no one to find.
Have you ever just stopped worrying about things, because you knew that everything would always be okay,
Because even if things got hard, he'd still love you forever and always and it would always be that way.

Have you ever love him with all your heart, and for your love he always knew,
You'd tell him you loved him tons and he'd always be the one who whispered it back to you.
Have you ever had him understand, he'd always acknowledge the words you'd say,
Because he was your best friend "forever and always" he promised that day.

The Perfect Evening

Well.. this is one poem which i wrote where in I could pour my thoughts about a special evening I plan for my love...something which he would remember all his life .... something we'd remember all our lives ...

Heres to celebrating being together .. here s to celebrating love ..

An evening to remember, an evening to recollect
An evening that seemed just so perfect.
I wish that the time would remain still –
I wish I could see you more – to my hearts fill.

The balloons, the candles
And a table set for two,
Romance filled the air around us
And sweetheart, it was meant just for you.

Those eyes filled with love,
Gazing at me through the candle’s flame
Made me blush scarlet pink,
I’ve captured that moment in a picture frame.

Hand in hand, we sat for hours
Without speaking a word,
And yet this was the best talk I ever had,
Where unspoken words too were heard.

You kept looking into my eyes,
But it felt you were looking into my heart,
We made promises to each other
And without you – my world would fall apart.

Just when you thought
The evening was done
My special plans for you
Had just begun

Beneath the sky with stars shining bright
I knew this was the moment - it had to be tonight.
Expressing my feelings and my love for you
I knelt before you and proposed to you.

At the touch of your hand
My heart skipped a beat,
I remember melting in your arms
You swept me off my feet.

There was something magical about that night,
There s nowhere else I’d want to be.
We are meant to be with each other,
And even the Gods would have to agree.

Nothing lasts forever ..

This poem has a big history behind it which I would not like to speak of rite now ... But if you would have checked my post in the Megha's Diary blog you would have read it already ...

Nonetheless ... A brief intro to this poem is as follows :

The nature of things is that if they don't get lost, they get stolen, and if they don't get stolen, they get broken, and if they don't get broken, they fade or fall apart. This includes teacups, cars, sweaters, computers, earrings, and just about everything you can touch or experience or have--even relationships. Believe it or not, it helps to know that although "it" is in one piece now, its eventual, inevitable state is broken.

Things most cherished and nurtured, eventually and inevitably become nothing... Relationship don't always start as we might expect, nor end as we might wish ..

I’ve thought it over and I know what I want,
No matter what others say, or how much ever they taunt.
Lately, few things have been in my mind
No others means to express I find.

I never really knew you

you were just another friend

But when I got to know you,

I let my heart unbend.

There was this time I thought that you were just for me,
I saw no flaw in my choice, but I guess I clearly dint see.
I never knew this relationship would come to such an end,
And eventually I’d get back to calling you as a friend.

Not holding you in my arms is tearing me apart,

Being away is something I never imagined from the start.

I never thought we'd fall in love, so mad

I never realized life without you would be so bad.

This can't be over; we're still not through,

There's so much we haven't shared - so much we promised to do.
I still can’t stop myself from thinking that I’ll never be able to see you again,
But again, this is my choice and I am not going to complain.

They don't know what we are going through,

How much you love me and I love you.

If they only knew how you made me feel,

with all the problems you helped me deal.

How you taught me I was much more than I had ever thought -

All of the Joy, Happiness, and Love to me you brought.

Thoughts we shared, a life we lived, and a love we had together

and then it strikes back big time that Nothing Lasts Forever.

It's killing me that now that day has come,

If it's for the best then where is this pain from?

I know deep inside that this is what I had to do

but it's breaking my heart to walk away from you

I'm trying my best to appear strong,

but it's hard when part of me says that in your arms is where I belong.

I still love you with all my heart,

and that's not going to change even though we're apart

All the words I ever said or wrote still hold true

But for now from a distance is where I'll be loving you.

I think you need me as a friend to help you through,

because there are things I can't control that are hurting you

Maybe we will be together again if it was meant to be,

but for now please don't stop loving me

Even though I'm not your girlfriend I'll still be here,

With a shoulder to cry on or a sympathetic ear.

One day I will return to you all you have given me,

In some shape or form; soon you'll see.

One day we will be able to be together every day,

And we won't have to worry what they say.

So when the time comes, promise me you'll take my hand and be with me forever,
But again, I am sorry for now.. I have to say that Nothing Lasts Forever…

For you dear Pa ...

This was written on the occasion of Father's Day ...

I can never thank you enough Pa , for what you have done.
There are no words to express what I feel for you.


When I was a baby,
You would hold me in your arms.
I felt the love and tenderness,
Keeping me safe from harm.

I would lookup into your eyes,
And all the love I would see.
How did I get so lucky ?
You were the dad chosen for me.

And as I grew, you stood patiently behind me
Allowing me to stretch my wings
You had faith in what I did,
And never stopped me in doing any thing.

You made me test the waters,
And learn from my mistakes.
You let go off so many things,
Just for my sake.

No matter what has come about,
You were always there,
As a dad you showed me of
the how,the why and the where.

You may have thought that I dint see,
Or that I hadn't heard
Life's lessons that you taught me,
But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought that I missed it all,
And that we'd grow apart
But Dad,I picked up everything
It's written on my heart.

Without you,I wouldn't be
The woman I am today
You built a strong foundation
that no one can take away.

Our love is everlasting
I just wanted you to know
That you are my special hero
And wanted to tell you so.

I've grown up with all your values,
And I'm very glad I did,
So here to you,dear Pa
From your forever great full kid.
