Of paths n walks

I've just seen a few springs in my life
but have traveled many roads.
And not ones that were beaten and rife
But treading the path and choosing my way.

Regrets and remorse… yes I've had a few, who doesn’t?
but I still walked my way strong
Taking every defeat in my stride
Still walking the path with all the plume and pride

I bit more than I could chew
Asked questions whose answers I always knew
I have nursed a broken heart
Embraced pain when I had to reluctantly depart

I have run into the strangest of by lanes
and yet managed to find my way
There were times when I screeched at the tiniest of doubt
And then actually fought it all out.

I've it laughed till I cried
I have shed copious tears till I managed to pull a smile,
I've strangely loved and lost
And lost and found the same love again

I have been there done that,
and landed up right there back again
Tried to run away from myself the most but in vain
And always ended up bumping into me…yes again!

Jumped the tallest mountain falling to the zilch
and yet climbed it back again.
The blows and scars say it all
Bearing witness to the journey I have had.

The curtains are yet to fall
The tree is yet to shed its leaves
The stream is yet to bury its head in the rivers’s lap
Until then..I have time to live my dreams…

Ruptures

A nomad through life’s labyrinth
Reminiscing the good ol’ memories
Holding a promise of everlasting remembrance
And waiting till Time ceases to exist

In the darkness of the night I search for you amongst the stars
And my heart leaps up in adoration too
My tempestuous mind swiftly flies away
Such strong is the desire to be near you


Like sparks of lightning we met
Strangers yet finding a common tune
Dreams woven together, blessed by the moonlit sky
Aren’t our lives all about love and being loved?
