Debut


Prelude: Here's a sight of an old wine... A long time ago... On Feb 16, 2008, a day before my first birthday in US... In the memory of all my childhood bdayz back home, I had penned this...

Those days of my past, I cherish, I care...
and how much I miss them, is beyond compare...

There's a buzz in the air, when the devil's there...
He's smart enough to judge your plot, so please do beware!

A pinch of secrecy,
A pinch of wickedness,
A pinch of love,
without a sound nowhere...

Clock ticks on, the moment comes closer...
The silence hardens, things go down like a normal closure...

Eventually at the stroke of midnight, ushers a rush of light...
A sudden rush of angles cheering and smiling, with hands full and eyes shining...

Theres a thing from the forest,
always been black and sweet...
How was it smuggled made me ponder!!!
When it got there??? When it got there???

Pieces r cut, songs r sung...
its people I care, I obey, I belong,
get their blessings and gifts,
But what matters the most is the happiness there!

Time's moved ON! d moment reoccurred!
the scene's different, I wish it not were... :(
In a clear sky, the star's aware,
His constellation is hidden somewhere...

Everything's there coz of good people here,
but certain things are beyond compare!
If god could yield, give thy powers,
I wish to be there! I wish to be there!

The lone star's aware thy eclipse would end,
He would return there, where thee could blend,
His life's a mission, his sorrows would seed success,
Thou keep moving on, but don't forget the home address!

and at last but not the least is a song,
which pulls me back to where I belong,
It couldn't have been earlier neither later
This is only for you, MY DAD, MY BRO & MY LOVELY MOM!!!

Maru dil, my heart, maru loi, my blood, from the start...
maru nath, my family, two rows apart...
How do I move on buddy! kaive reite jaish!!!
coz no matter where I go...
my soul's in the SAME PLACE!!!

FACES


Prelude: Man made cubes, crosswords, sudokus look often look frail when compared to natures own puzzle 'the face'. A poem unfinished for life... 

sifting through the black and white
talking to the brown and light
I watched each face as it unfold
stories that were untold, smiles that it could never hold
when you faced the face you craved
reflecting feelings you wished to shout aloud!

Here's a tale of the face, I had to face, the ones I had to brace
A face with an infectious smile
with its own stupid thoughts, actions and likes
living the petty frowns and the trivial joys
It sparkled through rays of affinity
under it laid a sea of only willful ties

A face often measured and mild
face of a person who probably never tried(living life)
it was cryptic and it was cold,
it was easy to let go and tough to hold
the face never asked, the face never told
it enjoyed things on its way
thinking less and smiling in its imperfect way

A face who looked almost always right
it was hard to contradict, but hardly seemed right
dragging it out of limelight, shedding its color, holding it tight
arresting its changes, unraveling it with all your might
At every point, watching it alter its side
making you think, studying it, was it ever worthwhile?

I watched each face as it unfold
stories that were untold, smiles that it could never hold
