I am a lost cloud in your sky...

I am a lost cloud in your sky...

I am a lost cloud,
Finding a home to reside.
Dark night is closing out,
Looking for a shoulder to hide.

Floating alone now I came so far,
Still having no sight of you.
And I look up to stars,
Tell me where's my cute

Tired body and sleepy eyes,
Awaiting to lose myself.
No its not lies,
Sleeping when alone I am closest with thyself.

Yes I don't want to be awaken,
This night is already such a surpise.
The fear of been taken,
Away from you is scary and lifeless dry.

You are my fragrance,
My garden's rose.
Your love is my cohenrence,
My everyday's energy dose.

Being with you is all smiles,
No worries.
I feel nice,
And free.

Rimi

Rimi

Always wondered what strong minds are like,

Until I saw Rimi in Big Boss 9.

Everyone who ever watched it,

Guess winners are ones who won't give damn a bit.

Seldom understood silent person speaks most,

Pity we appreciate only hard vibrations of the throat.

Answer back or being a joker though suits the role,

Isn't being a classy and calm in storms also a quality of bold?

Salman, Big boss had no clue,

She played winner right in front of you.

Exhausted and frustrated you tried her with all tricks,

Shattered yourself but didn't topple her's even a single brick.

You've taught us what strength really stands for,

She meant, "I will love and admire you even if that makes you angry more"

A star

A star

All we grew up learning,

"Twinkle twinkle little star",

As times goes by,

We start identifying and see as we could so far.

Relevant ones,

We worn them and try to be at par.

Moment we win,

Interest wanes away and they look like tar.

If we lose,

They grow bigger and injuries becomes a scar.

In any case,

Time doesn't stop and fight becomes a war.

Self realisation,

Sooner the better and leave you enough time to depar'

Bye

Bye

Moments spent when we met first,
Lured me of wanting more and more,
And that never ending thirst.

I dreamt of you every night,
Being together hand in hand,
You choose to be so out of sight.

Days passed in thinking,
I'll convince you in someway,
Stupid times never stop ticking.

World is beautiful,
But never meant to live alone,
My fists were empty in making their full.

Freshness will not last forever.
It will shrink one day,
Alas if everone was so clever.

So much I did and forgot to realise,
Question stood in front of me,
Someone behind me too alright?

With apology I hugged them midway,
Came back home,
And never again I have to say.

Valentines'15

Valentines'15

Every morning when I open up my eyes,
Eyelashes between us doing hi five.

Reluctant to come out and start this day,
Your smile kisses my soul and sparkles my way.

Small Conversations that we have over morning tea,
Curls over yours cheeks and brief yawns are only I see. 

Part of day when I go out away from home,
Its all you in me I carry where ever I roam.

That ecstasy of coming back in the evening,
Reminds me all without you my life has no meaning.

Long hours together would all have one thing to say,
"I love you", says Prankul, every and this Valentine's day.

My own body...

My own body...

Chasing money, chasing dreams,
I climbed so high, life a softy cream.

Learnt through childhood, throughout teen,
I became a scholar, hunger for more still so keen.

Once during seven, one such evening,
Titillating my thigh, moments were recording.

Years passing by, clock continued ticking,
Strangers became friends, losses kept piling.

Brick by brick, I built my home, 
Shelter for me, and my living souls.

Before its too late, times shockingly realize,
Everyone you cared, what about the body's sacrifice.

Moments recorded, subsequently played once again,
Small thighs, becoming big legs afterall not in vain.

Its time to love, love this body too of my own,
Time to thank every brunt it bored, so that I am known.

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.
