Butterfly

For once
I would like to try
I would like to bear the pain
I would like to know what it feels
When it is so dry that it rains

For once
I would like to see
What the view is like
Is it going to blind my eyes
Or it is a feeling which is deathlike

For once
I would like to jump
From this mountain too high
and see if I can survive
and transform into a butterfly!

A reason

I wonder when you say
I am not ready
Is it that you really are not
Or it is just an excuse
To stay away from me
To have me and still keep that distance
To not get stuck
To keep looking for better
Younger
Beautiful
Things that the world has to offer
But I myself know,
It's not a bad trade
Even for me
A reason for happiness
A reason to be feel enthused
A reason to live my life
A reason for my confusions to reduce!

Better off

I wish to be something else
and I turn out to be someone else
I try to pretend to be better
Unknown territories in which my mind delves

I want to be somebody
and work hard to be it
When my mind doesn't support it
When it's someone else who takes the credit

I wonder at things that happen around me
and wonder at their reality
and then the reality of my own self
and of my heart's fragility

Then I dream to be that one
Which I don't know if I am capable of
or if I deserve to have it
Then, I decide in my current situation I am better off!

True!

The way you play those instruments

Like every time you touch the strings of sitar

You touch the strings of my heart

Like everytime you sing those words

You speak the language of my heart

The way you close your eyes

While you play the music

You feel me in your heart

Feel me in your breath

I know how you feel

With every beat that is played

With every word that is sung

With every note that comes out of it

When the beauty of the world is not enough

Is not sufficient

And all the problems of the world

Do not make sense to me

I find the beauty in you

and my happiness

is you.. so true so true..

What if I tell you

What if I tell you
It all is a lie
What if I tell you
I was just feeling high

What if I tell you
My world hasn't changed
What if I tell you
It doesn't matter if we're estranged

What if I tell you
I am just a dream
What if I tell you
I'm not what I seem

What if I tell you
I'm not reality
What if I tell you
I enjoy such cruelty

What if I tell you
You'd never know me
What if I tell you
It's not me whom you hear and see

Somebody

I once was a man
Full of possibilities
I once was a man
With hidden capacities

I was part of the world
I could change for better
I wanted to be something for real
Not just a trend setter

But you pushed me to my limits
To the ways you thought are better
To the paths you thought reached to your favourite destinations
I worked and worked hard
To fulfill your expectations still not falling apart
Now I know I can't be what you need
Not because I'm not capable
But because life isn't a game of speed
And I know I could be anybody
If you had not pushed me to be your somebody!

Vain

There has been time
I learnt to live alone
To be happy with myself
Be in my own comfort zone

But you came and changed my world
I saw your beauty and fell in love
Like the space increased inside my heart
And put you there in the space enclosed

Now the nights are lonely
And I know how it is to be alone again
Like everything I did, everything I was
Has been done in vain..

Hand in hand

I know you're a keeper
You never let go
When I am running around so fast
You support me nice and slow

I don't even know what I say
I don't know why difference are there
I know we both are the same
I know we both do care

It's easy to fall in love
It's easy to love you
It's difficult to understand the difference
In my love and myself

I don't know how to let it go
Don't know how to understand
Don't know how to keep it running
Coz love and ego go hand in hand

Looking forward

I'm sitting here
At the station
Where I deboarded from my train
Now I wait
For something I don't know
I can't put my fingers on
Multiple trains are going
To wonderful destinations
But I wait and wait
I am not even waiting for that old train
From which I deboarded
Sometimes it's just good to see
The movements around me
Sometimes it's good to wait
Sometimes I just sit there
Not waiting, not hoping
Not looking forward!

When...

All these times when things change
When they aren't the same
When I am not what I usually am
I want you by my side
I want you stand by me!!

When the world looks ugly
When it is everything it is not supposed to be
When it strong winds make me weak
When I can't stand against the storm
I want you by my side
I want you stand by me!!

When I loose the strength to face it
When I am weakest and most needy
When I am not what you want me to be
When I not what I should be
I want you by my side
I want you stand by me!!

My treasure

Just the roads changed
And our paths too
Like the death can part two people
But we are still here
Part of the same world
Part of the same life

Nothing has changed
Nothing will ever
Our love for each other remains same
Whether or not we get to see each other

Never worry my friend
Some love is to be kept in heart
To be preserved like a treasure
Whether people grow apart!

Sin

Thousand ways I have loved you
I can't ask you to love me
Can't ask to forget
Can't ask you to move on
Can't ask you to stay back
Some where in between
In some other world
Falling in love
With each others ways
With each other's wisdom
With the beauty of love
With conversations that aren't seldom
Where we don't have to adhere to the worldly world
Where we can fly like free birds
Where we match each other in the ways we like
Where with each other we only hike
That's another world we are together in
Don't be afraid my love
It isn't a sin!

Nothing can ever be!

I can only change who I am so much

And all I can offer is my love

If my love ain't enough for you

Then nothing that I have, ever can be

Whatever I could offer

Whatever I could give

I offered at your feet

To accept me 

And take me the way I am

I know I hurt you

And I don't know if I can ever do anything

To take that hurt back

But this is what I can do

This is the max that I can offer

I am not gonna look forward to your return anymore

But I will keep on loving you

If all my love can't bring you back

Then possibly nothing could

I can't offer anything else

I have this much only

This is all that I have

And I can only change who I am so much

And all I can offer is my love

If my love ain't enough for you

Then nothing that I have, ever can be!

Love is...

Love is a song sung

Like a mountain walk

Like a cold breeze in hot summer

Like walking on morning grass bare foot

Like feeling everything at the same time

Like heart is calling out in musical note

Like the majhi singing songs for Him

Like she is walking with ghungru on

Like the first shadows of the day the sun makes

Like the river flowing

Like the deer searching for her own scent

Like the fragrance from the new flower

Like an unfulfilled desire

Like the words without language

Like everything you ever asked for

Like everything you never needed

Like everything you couldn't have lived without!
