If i let you go...

I got nothing to do right now! My earphones lying on the table portray a sad picture. It's been ages since i used them help me get out of frustration. I did not listen to music for more than 48 hours now. I feel bad i did that. I put the earphones on. Hit the Play button on my cellphone. Stare at the my desktop and think about....nothing.
The song begins...


Day after day
time pass away and i just can't get u off my mind
nobody knows
i hide it inside
i keep on searching but i can't find
the courage to show
to letting u know
i have never felt so much love before
and once again i'm thinking about
taking the easy way out

but if i let u go
i will neva know
what my life would be holding you close to me
will i ever see,
you smiling back at me
how will i know
if i let you go.....

night after night, i hear myself say
why can't this feeling, just fade away
there's no one like you, you speak to my heart
it's such a shame we are worlds apart
i am too shy to ask and too proud to lose
but sooner or later i got to chose
and once again, i am thinking about
taking the easy way out

if i let u go
i will never know
what my life would be, holding you close to me
will i ever see,
you smiling back at me
how will i know
if i let u go......

For you...:)

The simplicity in the pose and the perfection in the click inspired me to write this rhyme down. This one’s for you Di.. Cheers!! :)

My Sunrise.


Where were you, all these days?
When i walked all alone and searched my ways?
Where were you when I needed a song?
When my poems lost rhyme and no one came along..

I looked for you, for an eternity and more
I looked for your footprints on the seashore
I found none, feared you were gone
I waited for the sun to set and waited till it was dawn

I found a part of you seeking the sky
I stared at the sun, it hurt my eye
I sensed something, I knew it was nice
It was exactly You, it was the Sunrise

That day I sat and watched sun change its course
The nature seemed powerful, I marveled at her force
I could look at the sun all day long
My poems began to rhyme and i turned them into a song

Everyday when the sun takes a dip in the sea
I appreciate its courage and it's beauty
And whenever I see the fire set in the blue
I wait for it to rise again, I wait for you...

Master of your Principles or Slave of your Temptation

I decided to take a walk by the sea-side. I wanted to face my fears. The waves were rising high. The wind blew recklessly. The sea shore was being evacuated. People were asked to move away from the coastline. The waves were considered to be high tide and they would cause mayhem if the nature fancied.

I volunteered and asked the crowd to move away from the sea to a safer refuge. I picked up a toddler but it set itself free and toddled its way to the shore. I knew it would be as good as risking life if I went to the sea shore to enjoy the serenity of the moon and the sound of the waves, to face the tides and accept my apprehensions.

The facts silently screamed that I shouldn’t explore the forbidden territories. But the seeker was desperate for the Golden Snitch. I had to go ahead and see what was in store. I wanted to stand there and feel the waves hitting me hard. I wanted to sing with the wind, dance with the waves, and walk without any control on the sand –coarse and wet.

I was scared of the outcome. The fishermen kept on warning us. I gave a deaf ear. My conscience wore a cloak and disappeared for sometime. The fisherman seemed dead somewhere. I was left all alone to experience the beauty of the night, the subtlety of nature and the might of the sea. It was beautiful. The temptation took me to a place which was an exact replica of my reverie.

I loved being there, though I never wanted to be. I feared facing the sea –vast and flawless. It was against my principles to discompose the integrity of nature. I was the master of my principles.

……And then I became the slave of temptation. I wasn’t afraid anymore…

Once again I come to thee
To be the self I wanted to be
The rules are broken
The truth besieged…
I am a slave of avarice
I am a slave of greed

I take my steps back
And retrace my way
I was the master of my principles
I would swear by it or slay.

Gone are the times
When I was ready for redemption
I am no more a hypocrite
I am a slave of temptation…

I care for none but for me
I am the self you want me to be
The changes are inevitable
The fear recedes
I am a slave of life
I am a slave of greed…

There is no time for guile
There is no time for pretension
Am I the master of my principles ??
Or the slave of temptation??
