Ray of Hope!

Ray of Hope!

Look at the forest when its dark,
Look at the sky full of stars,
Look at the tree adorned by flowers.

Look at the place torn by wars,
Look at the leaves every year those fall,
Look at eyes trying to see destination still so far.

This is where you have a glimse of innocent hearts,
This is where you find smiles amidst the dreamzz torn apart,
This is where you learn how everything from a scratch starts.

TO BE COMPLETED!!!!

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow...

I have lots of love today,
dont know if tomorrow i'll still have some.

I feel you in my arms today,
dont know if tomorrow i feel none.

I have to say a lots today,
dont know if tomorrow i'd say i am done.

I love playing with you today,
dont know if tomorrow its still be fun.

I share lots of smiles today,
dont know tomorrow if i am looking for some.

I am rich today,
dont know if tomorrow i could treasure anyone.

I am a poet today,
dont know if tomorrow i'll be one.

I'll be same...

I'll be same...

Hey, you will be queen one day,
lot of responsibilities will come your way.

It will maintain some space too,
You can overloook and go through.

But overlooking is not for you,
Maintained space is taken advantage by very few.

Fight and fight and still maintain your sweet smile,
and success will be touchin' your feet once in a while.

Success in everything happens to only few,
It doesn't come alwayzzz to maintain fightin' spirit in you.

Today you will be sad but tomorrow you'll be happy too,
So beautiful is this morning, bright sunshine outside when this dayz still so new.

Time has come to say good morning to you,
I'll alwayzz be same prankul u alwayzz knew.

Why?!

Why?!

I am looking shes aware...why does she hide?!

I am revealed she knows...where does the problem lie?!

I feel her impassivity...why is she shy?!

I am standing infront...still remain closed her eyes!?

I need answers she knows...still every conversation ends up with "WHY?!"?

I am waiting eagerly she turns up...still why dont i hear "HI!"?

I am flooded, messed up in life...still why does she looks up in the sky?!

I am walking alone...was i destined to be same even after everything i tried?!

I am waving...Has time come to say Goodbye?!

-Prankul (11th April)

Say Something....

Say something...

I might be insignificant,
Quickly i came, swiftly i'll go,
Wanna say something,
say it now.

I might be moving,
there i was then, here i am now,
Wanna say something,
say it now.

I might be asking,
U maintained silence, silence remained unbroken even now,
wanna say something,
say it now.

I might be feelin',
Feelin' sad then and feling bad now,
wanna say something,
say it now.

I might be touchy,
moisten cheek sometimes, thirsty lips now,
wanna say something,
say it now.

Last Smile...

Last Smile...

Frivolling after i lost everythig in life,
I heard somebody moaning nearby.

I discovered a lil girl,
Who sat all alone in this bizarre world.

Her checks were wet and eyes were red,
I couldnt stop asking what makes her sad?

She was collapsing couldnt ever lift her head,
Had i been been late, she would haev been dead.

I got tensed, wanted to help her anyhow,
Wasnt so easy when i didnt even knew my whereabout.

Put to test, i said now its mine,
run just run kept shoutin' my mind.

I kept searchin' by the time it was evening five,
When i first smelled the village life.

O my God, i found it atlast,
Could only say."Theres a girl there...please do it fast."

They were my last hope, my last smile,
I fell on the ground, eyes open, keep looking at the sky for a while.

I slept and woke up some couple of times,
Only worry was if they could make it on time.

Yes they did, i heard them coming,
Nobody came to me and i said nothing.

She'll be okay and live my life,
What about me, whose been living for so long, with no reson to stay alive.

...He died with a last smile on his face,
When villagers came to him for help, it was just too late.

Well! I am a loser...

Well! I am a loser...

I heard, when you are teen,
still learning what life rele means,
things look different, as if never seen.

I spend so much time thinkin',
didnt understand most of it, so started drinkin',
Lines on my forehead kept increasing.

I thought lifes so boring, i am so alone,
so many friends might show up, but not one uptil now has shown,
waited for a call, slept long back with forehead on my phone.

I thought maybe fault is mine,
World has changed so much in time,
I cried, am i rele waiting for my ninety-nine?

I buried myself in dark,
Thought why couldnt everything restart,
O God!! Please help me or with a plate beside me i'll starve.

Once i was lucky and i met her,
She said, "It so long i've seen you, where you were?"
I closed my eyes, turned my face and said, "Well, I am a loser!"

Your blue Eyes...

Your Blue Eyes...

Your blue eyes...and now forgotten, once in time,
had so much in depth.

Your pretty smile...and now withered, once a rose,
has so much in redness.

Your graceful walk...and now dried, once green,
had so much to see.

Your juicy lips...and now rotten, once a berry,
had so much to taste.

Your soft cheeks...and now callous, once so silky,
had so much to feel.

Your light hair...and now old, once so fresh,
had so much to attract.

Yours Me...and now silent, once so lively,
had so much to live for.

When natures angry...

When natures angry...(Tsunami)

With a half filled stomach,
There futures bleak and helpless they are,
Is this less than a war?

With thousands dead,
Dead bodies piles up, as you see that far,
Is this less than a war?

Buildings reduced to rubble,
and like boat floats our car,
Is this less than a war?

mother holding her child,
and child searchin' for her father,
Is this less than a war?

Incomplete Journey...

Incomplete Journey...

...vacations started but ended soon,

travelling in the train and watchin' the sky with no moon.

I was little sad but happy too,

left far away my home, getting' close to the place that looked so new.

I was standin' at the door, appreciating every moment that goes by,

watchin' those lil lil huts and children all saying bye-bye.

many of those things werent new to me now,

But there was something that looked unusual, i wanted to exlain but dont know how???

Everything looked fine, we were travelling at great speed now,

But suddenly everything came to a standstill, well it was a breakdown.

We all moved out serachin' for some mean,

instead i turned right towards a jungle, unfolding its night beauty unseen.

Dark it was and scary too,

irresistable were the sounds from the jungle and stars in sky, moment back which was blue.

I kept walking and for many hours i dont know why?

rabbits zig-zag and deers firght back all of then so shy.

It wouldnt have been more i asked for,

When i found myself close to the waterfall.

OMG i said, "...am i dead!!! or still alive?"

Birds chirping, water flowing and those sounds, it was truely a paradise.

I loved the place so much, wanted to be there for some more time,

but gettin' back to the train that could move any time, struggled my mind.

When i saw a cute girl, i asked"What are you doing?"

She pointed out to her lil puupy that loves running.

She was afraid but not after we had a long chat,

Its time to move, i searched my bag and offered her a Kit-Kat.

She was so happy, she made a friend new,

little she knew, she would be alone again in her lonely blues.

Well little i knew that god gifted her a paradise,

She gave me a kiss and said "you were so nice..."

I an hour i was in my train,

thought if i was dreaming or if it was the same.

I wasnt happy as i left place where there was so much to see,

In short i describe it as a incomplete journey.

I was just moved by the music,
Dont want to lie.

I still remember the time we spend together,
Can you forget it all O boy?

Dont want to lie.

Were those mere words O boy?

So soon fed up of me O boy,
My life has something more in it...
Dont want to lie.

We are going to meet again,

Only if you'll wait for me...
Dont want to lie.

Hiding something in my pocket(Thief).

Hiding something in my pocket(Thief).

Murmur in the streets,

Whistling amongst the crowds,

I felt a bit uneasy,

Hiding something in my pocket i dont know why?


Well remember, human once i was,

Loved everybody, I did,

Just felt a bit deprived,

Wanted some more, i dont know why?


Sitting in those sunny noons,

enjoying the sip of the hot tea,

Just felt a bit exhausted,

Wanted a breath, i dont know why?


After running for so lung,

Climbing up so high,

I felt a bit tired,

So long was carrying this burden, i dont know why?


Playing with dangers is all about my life,

Was just afraid, didnt want to die,

I felt i was followed,

They hanged me, i dont know why?

Imagination.

Imagination.

A Smile...in my face,

you wont kiss.

A piece of joy...in my heart,

you dont have.

A newborn child...in me,

you wont ally.

A lil pain here...in my arm,

you wont feel.

A drop of tear...in my palm,

you wont see.

A sorry...in my silence,

you wont hear.

A possession...in my life,

you wont worth.

Veterans...

Veterans...

Old in age,
nothin' significant to do,
noone to look after,
they may physically be weak,
but carry with the most active mind,
Dont know when,
mind get lost,
searchin' for the pictures of life,
only few of them still fresh,
only few of them still pleasin',
but in those few of them,
see their whole life.

time of childhood,
so naughty we were,
thinkin' about it makes you laugh.

time of youth,
that running after girls,
thinkin' about it makes you blush,

time of adulthood,
so caring and sincere we were,
thinkin' about it make you proud.

you smiled only for a moment,
when you are back,
you present starts teasing you,
so helpless and thirty for love,
thinkin' all this makes you cry,
but you drink them,
let not the world see,
you pray for them,
"God help them and take care of them no matter whatever they maybe"

She.

She.

When you wake up in the morning,

Shes the first one to chase your thoughts.

When you brush your teeth,

Shes the one who sweeten your breath.

When you take bath,

Shes the one who bubbles your mind.

When you dress up,

Shes the one who make you feel alright.

When you leave home,

Shes the one who say "Good Bye!!!"

When you are carried away by burden,

Shes the one standing and holding you tight.

When you are complete and done,

Shes the one saying "Well-done!!".

When you are sourrounded by your fans,

Shes the one standing far away askin' "can i be one?"

When you come back home first time after sunrise,

Shes the one to give u a pleasant surprise

When you go for a drive,

Shes the one holding your arm by her side.

When you fall asleep,

Shes the one lookin' at you, every moment saying "Gnite!!"

Lil lil Eyes...(Orphanage)

Lil lil Eyes...

Every night the same dream,

dreams of moments never seen,

dreams of places never been,

dreams of people never with me,

pain of wounds that never healed,

pain of separation happened long time back.


I have lil lil eyes,

lil lil lips,

n a lil lil hands.

I love toys.

I love 'love'.

I m lil.

I need somebody to look after me.

Is there somebody who'll own me,

Is there somebody who'll gimme.


I promise:

I'll work for thee,

I'll never trouble thee,

I'll look what u want me to see,

I would, whatever u want me to be,

But promise me,

u'll keep me,

close to your heart,

and love me,

as if,

I am ur lil child.

Friendship

Frienship.

Poeple said,
"A Friend in need is a friend indeed"
But I thought,
"As many times u help, u make a new friend for urself."
People said,
"friendship is a ship full of friends"
But then i thought,
"Friendship is a sea n once u dive, thou get a new meaning in your life"

and so on and on i thought.

I thought why not interview,
most different of them i choose,
n got so many answers.
Some answered thoughtfully,
some didnt even cared,
some just whispered,
some said "Excuse Me! No time there!!!"
well!!!
some said,
"Friends are ones, with whom we our secrets share"
some said,
"Friends are once, with whom we make perfect pair"
some said.
They are sick, probably failed to find the correct pick"
some said,
"Give us a break, for god sake"
Hmmm.
some said,
"Friendship is the holiest dip"
some said,
"freindship is sweeter than the ice-cream u lick"

well there something that touched, as said,
Friend is one who has,
"...black eyes but a blue vision,
Ugly face but a beautiful smile,
Hoarse voice but a distinct advice,
filthy clothes but clean mind,
Dull look but a sharp eyes..."

well at last,
Friendship is the "key",
Be as good as u wanna be,
B'coz its not just abt friends,
its abt how much love, care n wishes u wish to lend.

Euphoria.

Euphoria.

...same time,
probably a minute before nine,
i was holding my mug of wine.

Sitting in my balcony,
where darkness surrounded me,
only question repeated,"Where is she?"

I closed my eyes,
asking myself, "She didnt turn up!!! Why?"
stopped my breath and took a heavy sigh.

Suddenly heard someone talking light step,
young was girl yet carrying a heavy bag,
as every night she smiled, and i smiled back.

But whom i wanted to didnt turn up,
meanwhile got empty my mug,
heavy my heart was, with the chair i got struck .

I didnt try it anymore,
chilled breeze carried me to sea-shore,
as if i was in paradise, i didnt ask for more.

i was young again,
back were my days when i being so inane,
a guy so haughty having a big name n fame.

Very soon i found girl of my dreamzzz,
so beautiful she was and her look so alluring,
sweet were her voice and the song she was singing.

Song ended and she left the place soon,
only two left were blue me and white moon,
Waiting there for sometime, i came back home all alone.

Once again ended the same dream,
again saw some thing who meant so much to me, yet i havent seen,
hard i tried, but couldnt figure out what it actually mean?

same balcony,
same me,
missing "She".

Adieu...

Adieu...

I remember...

moment it would rain,
we would all come out,
n got wet.

moment its festive time,
we would all come out,
n celebrated.

moment its beautiful evening,
we would all come out,
n played soccer.

moment anything credible,
we would all come out,
n together rejoiced.

But Alas!!!
it changed.

moment we got internet,
nobody came out,
to get wet.

moment we joined orkut,
nobody came out,
to get back in time n overlook.

moment we started posting,
mobody came out,
they were all roasting.

Its too much a change,

moment i go back,
i get back my life n feel busy,
so many goals to achieve,
n life so full of things yet to see.

I miss my real world.

Its still not too late,
i just need to be cautious.
Now having realised the importance of time,
I know time is very precious.

Now just wanna take leave,
so long has it been,
since i realised its nothin' but myself.
