Door mat

Not sure if most of u will like it coz it doesnt look like poetry at all... but here I go...


Everytime I feel the warmth of your sole
I feel wanted...and almost loved...
It is when you slam the door
That I wake up to reality
It'll never matter who I am
How I look or what I say...
I'm just the door mat in your way...

To a person whom I wish I could reach out to...

This is dedicated to a person I've tried and I keep trying to reach out to... I've always wanted to reach out the little kid lost in layers of cynicism.. And I guess a special friend who is also having more or less the same struggle might empathize a lil with me... To all the lost kids and to all the people who've set out to reach to them.. Here is my lil poem...


Hey there, my lonely ranger
Its been so long since you said Hi
Maybe you thought you scared me away
Or maybe you thought I said good bye
Would you believe it if I say I'm still here
Right where you left me in tears
Waiting for another chance to reach out to you
There is an unspoken little bond that awaits to be renewed

I wonder how you'd have been as a kid
Would there still be this bull-headedness
That quick temper that flashes so oft
Or where they just what time has stamped
Over a smile that could have been so soft?

Maybe if we'd met in a different time
Shared a candy or two, said different lines
Built a few castles in our backyards
I'd have cracked a few walls around your heart
And yeah, that would have been a better start...

There is no meaning.. hoping for a past
When even the present would not forever last
Still I'm searching for the lost little kid
Who peeks out sometimes before you shut the lid...

Alone in the crowd

Using this blog after a very long time.. I've tried to pen a poem after too long.. Do post ur reviews

Feels like I'm isolated
I'm talking to my echoes
To hide forever in my secret world
Is just the life I chose
Lost in a million thoughts
Dreaming to escape reality
A single note for a forgotten song
Unheard, unsensed, I drift along
A pebble in the river of time
A teardrop in the ocean of joy
A snowflake in the raging storm
A shiver in the summer warmth
So here yet so far away
I'm alone in the crowd!

Helpless

Helpless....That is how we feel sometimes..A feeling that cannot be avoided...It cannot be reasoned out....Its just there and will be there

There is the strange feeling of being hunted
A fear of the shadows and daylight too
So blinded by the flashing warnings
I stumble knowing not what is true
Whenever those curtains of uneasy calm fall
I call it quits to this masquerade-but then
I'm not holding the strings, so I move
Like a puppet dancing in the wind
There’s loneliness-the wound and the remedy
Disappointment of being alone in the crowd
A part of me searching for a sweet solace
A part me of me crying out aloud
"Enough" is what I often say
But I move beyond not knowing how
So do most, though they pretend otherwise
Helpless, for we do not have a choice......

Something after a long time

Well..I never had time to blog or write but then since my blog almost looks dead here are two old poems but then I thought you might like them

Here I am..in the middle
Trying to grow up
I dont know how I'm gonna be
So dont expect too much from me
I know I can make it
In the battle of survival
I'm not going to fight
But am just gonna fully live..
I dont claim I know it all
I know I'd sometimes have to fall
But I'd be up again at my feet
And enjoy every minute..coz there are no repeats
Dont think I'm gonna change
Coz people do when they try too hard
I'm just walking in hand with time
Evolving constantly into me..


It felt so different, it still feels the same
A feeling that years could not erase
The warmth, the flutter, the golden haze
Time freezing when you crossed my way
The way our eyes locked and held
Just for a second longer every time
The secret smiles, the unspoken words
The subtle magic that was woven
There is no need to deny for we know
No need to resist for that is how it goes
This special something between us..

Sweet Innocence

This one particularly dawned on me during a really bleak moment...So let me know how it is


Tell me how I could live again
Those vibrant and colourful days
When my heart was light,my thoughts were free
When life seemed a miracle with so many things to see..
Tell me how I could feel again
The wonder as I peep through the window
The joy of sunshine,the moods of the wind
The music of rain and the mysteries of heaven..
Tell me how I could seek again
The simple pleasures that life had to offer
Sing-alongs and bed-time stories and family
And smile again when I'm dreaming...
Tell me how I could revel again
In being me and see no flaws
Love me,live my life and be happy
Tell me how I could be me again.....
Tell me how I could hold you again
For without you I lost so many things
Those seem trivial but mean so much
Show me again the content and bliss....
Come back to me Sweet Innocence.....

Journey

This is the beginning of a long journey in blogging ..And I want u guys to feel free to comment on my works..After all I did want one sanctum unspoilt by my worthless baubbles just for a few good pieces(or so I feel)of mine..Here I present "My thoughts"

Me- a universe of atoms
An atom in this universe
I've begun this journey-destination unknown
Each phase-the time to prepare to move …
The love for myself drives me
On and ahead those milling crowds
And what I gather in the sea of life
Is just to ensure that I reach the shore..
Never am I lost-for I do believe
That the place I am now-is yet another home
And when I leave-I bleed not
Coz there is still something left unexplored
I know the journey is long and slow
But to make it worthwhile shall be my goal
I may be forgotten here-my footsteps erased
There is no heartache-for a traveller knows
That journeying on is the way it goes.....
