Valentine'13

This one for my wife on Valentines Day... :)

Valentine'13

Smoky eyes with which you keep staring at me,
Flames my soul and all that you is only I see.

Curls rolling over cheeks every moment waving at me,
I lose myself for that moment and heart skips a beat.

Air you breathe out embraces your fragrance over me,
Soaked in aroma of love it keeps caressing my cheeks,

Fingers all stretched out as if trying to reach me,
Not so far rather we're close enough to each other feel.

Every step you take inching closer and closer to me,
I walk two making it thrice the speed to forever one be.

Precious gift god bestowed long before Valentine stuck me,
True meaning of love now homes my heart where resides thee.

Yours Me...

Yours Me...

Sleeping your sleep,
In this night so serene,
Closed in my arms,
Its yours me.

Smiling your expressions,
In this dream so deep,
Caught in my love,
Forever yours me.

Living your life,
In this world so mean,
Soaked in lonely moments,
Silent yours me.

Boozing your wine,
In this glass so empty,
Immersed in my self,
Hopeful yours me.

Singing your voice,
In this song so dreggy,
Exposed in my thoughts,
Naughty yours me.

Feeling your touch,
In this body so softly,
carried away my pains,
Just yours me.

This crazy feeling in me

This crazy feeling in me

Winds blow in my sleep, messing up my hair,
I take a moment off my dreams, keeping them alright,
Oh this crazy feeling of love in me,
Where ever I am its only you I see.

Waking up early, so much to hurry,
Impatient hours, gazing from balcony,
Oh this crazy feeling of bird to be,
To fly you at night and rest on your knee.

Idle moments, whenever they find me,
I chase you, driving rashlessly,
Oh this crazy accidents I always meet,
Before I could touch, you always flee.

Rain after rain, seasons pass by,
Soaked in the sun, lips turn dry,
Oh this crazy thirst in me,
I keep drinking confusing to be with thee.

Come to me, time keeps pushing me along,
Changes happening, to you still I belong,
Oh this crazy aging happneing in me,
God forbit moments when two can't together be.

Will you ever know?

Nears are close and I'm with them,
Every single moment.
Fars seem away but I keep them,
Those sweet seconds.

Every time I think of present,
My cheek glows.
A smile always shinning outside,
Multiplies and blows.

I am here for them,
And always be.
Love borrowed from past,
Will also see.

Time travels as always had,
I'll be old.
Those snaps I've in mind,
Encrypted in gold.

My hearts today live happy,
Nothin' to fear.
I'll live that beat,
Forever O dear!

BYE...

In early morning hours,
When sunlight has not yet won over dark,
Gazing at those millions of fading stars,
I feel you standing next to me though so far.

Dry leaves all rustling alike,
Few of them still green and some of them already dried,
Are they crying out to become free,
OR dancing to be part of this big tree.

Deeply engrossed in my fake real thoughts,
Condition as if standing in a sinking ship's dock,
Every moment feels as if its taking away my soul,
Body's unable to fight and shatters amidst beauty so cold.

Life just enough as visible in half closed eyes,
Movements of heart trying hard to keep me alive,
Any moment I'll be one of those millions fading stars,
BYE and TC would be my prayer from the world so far.

Freshness...

In the middle of April,
Dust and heat reachin' intolerance level,
I felt a drop touchin' me.

Swiftly opened my eyes,
To ascertain if it was just a lie,
"No its not!" shouted a Thundering cloud.

Too nice to still believe,
Sun has already started to relieve,
A gust of wind rushed along my cheek.

Rustles of leaves,
Bend of tress,
Perfect onset of evening you see.

Birds began returning to their nest,
Everyone around enjoying nature's fest,
Found myself soaked in freshness of moment as that.

Sky was already dressed in shades of dark grey,
Everyone lookin' up requesting god to hear our pray,
The drizzle would once again bring everything alive.

Tender green leaves studded with tiny drops,
Paddy fields once again would be laden with crops,
Freshness would be felt once again in our thoughts.

Once again...

Once again...

Once again I felt like writing a line or two,
In a cool sunshine and weather thats so cute.

In my sleep I've been chasing a dream,
Last night got a glimpse of it still not very clean.

Every time I think of you I go blind in the daylight,
Moment I open my eyes I feel myself soaked in the night.

Interestingly dreams do seldom come true,
But its my life and I've chosen to let it brew.

The taste of this wine will only freshen up my pain,
As a sedative I tried and succeeded uttering your name.

Don't worry red roses in my hand will never wither,
And arrow that pierced my heart had only made it louder.

Your happiness and sorrows will always be dressed upon me,
Just for once please let me feel this feeling I want to feel!

Evening story...

Evening story...

Li'l tired n dull face,
As usual I was back from office.

Threw my shirts n pants apart,
Quickly setting winter evenings so dark.

Crystals from showers touched my body,
Mirror closed its eyes excusing it to be foggy.

Five past six I wiped it all out,
Enjoying hot coffee quietly in my couch.

Not very soon soap starts bubbling in TV,
Left me thinkin' was it really meant for me.

Confused I switched on to a movie,
Only to discover honey from the same bee.

Not before in the silence of midnight,
I opened my eyes to switch off the light.

"Unhappy" baarish...

"Unhappy" baarish...

Aasman se hone lagi barish aise,
laga tha aayi bujhane pyaas meri,
par jaisa socha woh thi na waise.

Dhere dhere girne lagi boondhen sar par,
Ek anokha sa ehsaas raha kuch pal,
bann gaya andar hi andar ek darr.

Chaya charon aur kuch aisa andhera,
Gum ho gayi bijli,
Laga shayad ho na fir kabhi koi sawera.

Jugnu to dekha tha maine,
Par tha yeh kuch aurr,
lage thi aasmaan se zor-zor ki awaaz aane.

Bahaut der chalta raha wahi,
Bus ab ruk jao,
Samast Jan jiwan ki pukaar thi yahi.

Ruka na pani,
Shayad tha naraaz humse,
karta raha apni man-mani.

Beh gaya kuch aise sab,
Prakriti ke saath kiya jo humne,
kar payega fir koi na ab.

Dreams were lying...

Dreams were lying...


I was awake with my ears open,
Something was wrong but never bothered to listen.

A drive away was my office I want to be,
Such a foggy morning before a lot more I could see.

All the day so many things I did,
No time to sleep so just slammed my eyelids.

A lonely sip of tea in a distant balcony,
again n again until cup told I was empty!

Walked so slow it took hours to reach home,
Only to realise my keys were in a car I left all alone.

Kicked a can and saw myself flying,
Opened my eyes to discover my dreams were lying!

-Prankul (13.10.2009)

We'll always be together...

We'll always be together...

Bas yun hi pyar karunga tujhko hamesha,
Doonga deni padhe pyar ki kitni bhi parisha.

Har gam aur khushi batenge saath-saath,
Agar ruthi kabhi phir bhi rakhunga apne dil ke paas.

Meri muskrahat teri and tere gam mere,
Meri zindagi aur meri chahat hai ab naam tere.

Bas kabhi bhi ab hona na udas,
Kyunki har pal mein chupa hoga kuch khaas.

Ab intezaar hai un lamho ka,
Jab honge pass hum jitna ki socha tha.

Ye kavita nahi dil hai mera,
Jispe likha diya hai ab naam tera.

You filled colors in me...

You filled colors in me...

I was happy,

With only green I see.

You taught me to laugh,

And painted colors in me.

I knew to walk,

That the best I could see,
You taught me to run,

And brought best in me.

I was sleeping,

Nothing much to feel.

You held my hand,

And brought me lovely dreams.

I loved to read,

Like an unexplored sea,

You made me write,

And invented a poet in me.

-Prankul(30.10.2007)

Just for you darling...

Just for you darling...

Home sweet home, that will be our after sometime,

That beautiful mornings and cup of tea in sun shine.

Those weekends when we together have lunch,

Those sweetie nights when we watch TV together and have fun.

I'll take you in my arms and not let you sleep,

Until you kiss my cheeks and pretend as if you're going to weep.

I'll sing for you and take you for a ride with me,

In the kingdom far far away more beautiful than anything ever seen.

No sooner pleasant morning will be our way,

And its time for something you'll never like me to say.

Together we will stretch, jog and exercise,

Before its time for a cup of tea in balcony watching lovely sunrise.

Its all sweet and moreover its on our way,

Pooja, its close what this world will call our wedding day.

This crazy mind of mine...

This crazy mind of mine...

Innocent thoughts and crazy mind,

I started building a sweet home of mine.

.

Tired sometimes and very thirsty too.

I kept on going to see it becoming really cute.

.

It looked easy and will become big one day,

But no one told me there are storms on the way.

.

I was afraid but it didn't bother me.

It came out of love which see no boundary.

.

A storm came and took everything just so silently,

I woke up next day to see a tree fell over my dream.
.

They warned me just that i didn't care to see,

Before I could became rich my pockets were empty.

.

It was this crazy mind of mine,

I choosed to closed my eyes and became blind.

Early hours in office...

EARLY HOURS IN OFFICE...

.

A solitary cube and loneliness felt inside so deep,

Its crazy working here when everybodys so fast asleep.

.

Like a moon my cube lightens the entire space,

I need to finish my work or have dire consequences to face.

.

Pressed a key few times but nothin comes up on screen,

Stupid me I was awake only in my dreams.

.

Head always inclined and a pen upside down,
Expressions and smile over my face depicted only a clown.

.
Sometimes i swayed left sometimes looked towards right,
A Thought so profound about who will be first one to catch my sight.

.
Not long before I realised how bright was the sunshine,
Sometimes water and sometimes coffee is how i spend moments before it was nine.

Painting...

Painting...

Today I feel like painting a face new,

Give it a shape and form known by very few.

It was her during days when she was with me,

More beautiful than anyone else you'll ever see!

I colored her eyes big yet innocent in light brown,

Her hair curling up cheeks as and when she moved around.

Sad, smiling or angry her were among to choose,

Stupid she looked more beautiful in anything i drew.

A baby soft smile and more thoughful it was,

It was same her troubling me always as in the past.

Time came to give a tender touch to her cheeks,

Careful i was not to wake her up from the deep sleep.

It turned out to be so real as it could just be,

Not different as if she actually there painted me.

I will miss you forever...

I will miss you forever...

Remembering every moment that we spent together,

Those silly arguments over every silly matter.

Every morning waking you up to come for a walk,

Those short nights when we had so much to talk!

Having so many long distance dates,

Those naughty hours for your calls i had to wait!

Those glimses of your pretty-pretty face,

Thousand miles i was ever ready to trace!

Those winds that swept you away,

Took you far n far from me everyday!

I promise my eyes will never turn teary,

My love for you will grow stronger forever dearie.

Our past strengthened me enough to face the future,

I'll be waiting on the same lane once we walked together!

A smile again...

A smile again...

A smile came again over my face,

Energy enough to start "that" abondoned beautiful race.

A loss in the past that engraved over my mind,

Left me dull and striving for something which was never mine.

Today i feel complete and the everything looks so deary,

I have finally pulled out myself from the life that was so scary!

Wanting to be a kid now keeps bubbling my thought,

And why not after winning the battle so long i had fought.

My lyrics are no more just a mere reading,

Adorned with a melody that makes it suitable even for singing.

World now no more looks to me empty,

I have drank water enough to ever make me feel thirsty!

Pains incurred seem to have lessened in time,

Future is calling again welcoming every moment with a glass of wine!

Sweetest Gift...

Sweetest Gift...

Sometimes I wonder if you still remember me,

Those pink roses and those lovely orange trees.

We would spend hours gazing at those twinkling stars,

Every moment, wondering, if you'll come with me so far.

Your hair and cheeks all glowing with white,

So beautiful will be our home along the river side.

Those Ripples struggling to reach offshore,

And surprises, every moment knocking at the door.

Moment when you would smile and very next you cry,

You are the god's sweetest gift I got in my life.

I Started Dreamin'

I started Dreamin'...

I Started Dreamin',
Again Begins a new day...so sweet was that sound.

Where does it come from?!

I go near the window...stretched myself looking down.

A light smile over my face,

A feeling of joy...as if yesterday i was crowned.

I lift my hands up,

Wanted to play...but no one was found.

Sadly Went back to my bed,

lots to say...but no one was around.

Over my palm i slept,

moistened cheeks...hiding tears that drowned.

Time has flown fast,

Leavin' me alone...no one there to surround.

Looking for light,

I walked in the darkness...on that slippery ground.

So many times did i fall,

everytime i did it was all...but from where came that sound?!
