Born To Love You

Image
  Photo by Manuel Meurisse on Unsplash I was born for nothing, With nothing, but Just a small tiny thing – My heart – to Love, love Love you my little Zing ! I flew on the wings of your dreams, Cried in the pangs of your screams, Gleamed in the burst of your smiles, Swam with the thrust of your wooing eyes, Burnt in the heat of your body, Bounced with the push of your steams! I toiled for your desire, Hoping you to less perspire, 'Cause I had none of my own, Just wished to remain your man; Alas, I failed and fate won To throw you in despair! I loved every bit of you, Your heart, body, mind, and hue; But now I miss you, insanely wish To kiss you, tightly hug you Until I fuse and conjoin Eternally forever with you! Come, one last time, Just for the sake of mine, Blow like a cool breeze Over my existence, Until I freeze and cease To suffer from my deadly disease! ‘Cause sadly I was born With nothing, attained nothing, And will carry nothing Except your love – The only purpose of my so...

Wingless Bird

O wingless bird of my arts! Fallen from the nest, Take the strength of my words, Fly in my prose and verse. O sapless pen of my thoughts! Dried from the dread, Nib into my veins and clots, Inscribe on paper in blood. O merciless pain of my body! Let me slowly perish, Dwell and cherish the vault, I render you to flourish. O needless cry of my soul! Bereft of your audiences, Rebound, return and lie, Buried with mute senses O pointless compass of my life! With all magnetism lost, Who provides you solace – Mountain, valley or grass?

Repentance

The memory of that day is so intense that it is totally unforgettable. In fact, year 2019 itself was quite taxing for my family, so was it for him too. My cancer was taking its toll mentally, physically, emotionally, and a great deal financially on the family. Obviously, my ailment and resultant joblessness were dragging the whole affair into a negative direction. At the same time, he too was aging and needed a lot of medical, personal, and emotional care, which despite all efforts was not seeming possible, and we three were (my wife, daughter and I) definitely feeling deeply guilty about it. Struck badly by such grim situatio...

Before You Take Me to Her Lane!

    --These are the last emotions of a soldier for his beautiful lover. Unfortunately, their love could never be culminated.                                                                                      Flowers of Palash (Butea monosperma) wait! before you take me to her lane tell me if she still stands for me in the balcony and just pretends to clean that windowpane if her long thick braid still touches her knees and its color still reminds of the mahogany  if the coils of her curly hair still kiss her virgin cheeks and, into her cleavage, the morning dew still quietly sneaks if she still eagerly waits for me at the threshold  for it’s me whom her spry eyes want to behold if the wind still notoriously blows u...

Successes you treasure Fate did the treason With all my hopes Now I bleed through All my nerves and holes Tied to the bed with bloody ropes Rotting with cancer for years But it’s okay, you don't shed tears ‘Cause it’s I who flawed everywhere  But tell me, did I fail to always be there And take you somewhere? Oh! I did the crime of you having Terms always on your dictate Didn't shut your mouth to laugh, sing or debate Or pull your legs from taking any test Friends envied you so much To always be the best You took pride in shadowing the rest Hovered like an eagle to snatch Success from everyone’s ...
