To Be With You Again.

Water turns to ice,
And melts back again,
Seasons have gone now
Since I laid my eyes on you.

But now the time arrives
Of the triumph,
Of heart, and soul,
And true love and sacrifice.

I'm glad we're still here
Untouched.
Unaffected.
Uncompromising.

I've prayed hard for this moment
To come, and take me
To your arms
Awaiting my embrace.

The look in your eyes,
The warmth of your touch,
The feel of the tenderness
Of your lips on mine.

Suddenly all the distances disappear
And disintegrate
Into stupid notions
And cried-over silly things.

My heart cries out
Unrestrained, savagely even
In the joy of my returning
To the tenderness of your bosom.

That feeling
That now encompasses me
Is like a cocoon
Around me.

I feel indestructible,
I'm in your safe hands now,
Like standing with you
In the middle of a tornado.

Everything around me is now a blur
Of motion and images
And mixed feelings
And tears.

And I care not
For a thing in the world,
As long as you hold me tight
In your arms
And promise to never let me go ever again.

(HELLO, Thanks for the idea. Although I still haven't justice to your words) :)

Where are you?

(Aawaaz de, kahaan hai)

Shout out,
Where are you?
My world is youthful.
Alive and free
In my heart
Is the world of
Hope.

The night goes
Like the moonlight
Fades away.
Now I walk
In the shadows,
To the train of stars.
In such a place,
Where are you?
Shout out,
Where are you?

On fate,
Why is the ink
Of night blotting?
My sleep is gone,
Witnessing are the stars.
I'm devastated here,
Where are you prospering?
The sky is relentless,
My world is youthful
Shout out,
Where are you?

Come On Over.

(To Phir Aao)

I'm here,
Tease me,
Come on over,
Make me cry.

My mind becomes a cloud
And my eyes start pouring,
My sighs go so high,
Like hurricanes.

Take away your sorrows
All that you burdened on me.
Or else tell me
How to bear them.

Now from this place
I have to go away,
The roads that lead to my love,
I need to find them.

I'm here,
Tease me,
Come on over,
Make me cry.

Real Men Cry

It's the kind of shit that I've been dealing with
The kind that lays down on me, it bears down on me,
The life inside cried out loud, but I choose not to
Hear its screams, its voices, its pleas, its cries.
It dies out in a torrent of violence, and pressure
And everybody here can think that they can relate to me
And you think that you can dictate to me,
But let me tell you now, no use here, not now,
From a fortune. To crashing and burning on the streets.
I couldn't, I wouldn't, I refused, I denied.
The push came to pull, the juice not worth the squeeze,
I realised my fault, my bad, I'm really sad
That I believed that all are Supermans, Supermen, SuperCrazy,
But fuck it ain't. Not a chance. I maybe. They aren't.
I still had the audacity to go on churning out
Song on song, word on word, lie on lie, pain on pain
I cried. Loud. In a small 10 by 8. On my haunches.
Tears flowed. To remember what I once heard as a kid,
Real men cry.

Where the heart rejoices...

(Aao Huzoor Tumko)

Come, O Darling,
I'll take you
To the stars;
Where the heart rejoices
Such places I shall take you...

My wayfarer,
My companion,
Be mine.

I'll take you
To the blinding gazes
Of love.
Where the heart rejoices
Such places I shall take you...

Please write
On the book of my heart
Such that not even
The seven heavens
Can write.

In my embrace,
In your embrace,
Lies the true heaven.
Where the heart rejoices
Such places I shall take you...

What makes the world go round.

I'd believed
To chide, to scold,
To make people understand,

That not love,
But anger
Makes the world go round.

And one day,
Metamorphosis.
I see.

There
By the lake,
Under the moonlight sparkling,

A man
And a woman
Entwined.

Hands in hand,
Eyes on eyes,
Epitome of devotion.

Love, incarnate
The figure worth the thousand words,
All encompassing.

Love,
Passion,
Startlingly so.

Grandiose articulation
Verbosity
Not required.

The bodies
Saying it all.
Without Speech.

Like music.
That breaker
Of all barriers.

Love it is,
Unfailing,
Unending.

Undoubtedly.
Unabashedly.
Unequivocally.

And all I can think
Is that
Love makes the world go round.
