Rhyme

There are some words that resonate in my mind and I am just awed by the sublime beauty of its meaning. Through the crisscrossing thoughts of mind and tender emotions of the heart I try to caricature a frame of it’s meaning. At night while trying hard to sleep I see an assortment of these meaningful pictures dancing in front of my eyes. One such word that took my goodnight’s sleep away recently is ‘Rhyme’ well I have come across this word many times but never thought deeply about it.

Picture 1: the first night
A child sleeping peacefully
Perched in mother’s arms tenderly

I was trying to sleep but was not able to, I could feel my rhyme less heart beats, a sense of loneliness got into my nerves; I asked myself what would tune it to rhyme and got an instant answer from the heart: lying peacefully, caressed gently in my mother’s arms, a divine sense of satisfaction trails, there are no words that can exactly describe this feeling but i realise at that moment my heart beat rhymes with that of her. Just perceiving this makes eyes drizzle but brings a smile to me and finally I fall asleep hearing the rhyming lullaby of my heart.

Picture 2 : the second night
Forgetting oneself
Dancing whole night feeling good being myself

Extremely exhausted unaware of everything lying curled in the corner of my bed I hear a serene music, I love to dance it makes me joyful, filled with enthusiasm, an inexplicable pleasure of being myself. The smooth float of my body rhyming with the tune of music. In this rhyme of swinging emotions I finally fall asleep.

Drowning in the Whirlpool of Love

I knew the first time I saw you
Never thought I’ll feel the way I feel now
Struck by the unyielding tide of love
I lost my heart as are the ripples in water
Now I am drowning slowly in the whirlpool of your love.......
As on roller-coaster ride
My heart is pounding a million times faster
And I know it is for you.

With so many complications
Yet you make it so easy for me
Like living in a painter’s imagination
Filled with myriad hues
Enchanted by the magic of love
I believe in you.

I can see it in the twinge of your eyes
The inevitable love words cannot express
And I just know it is forever............

P.S. :Waiting for the tide to come and turn my life upside down :)

Dreamer

A quixotic imagination
Of a magnanimous dreamer.
Dreaming unreachable destination
Travelled by wondering thoughts.
Dreaming untouched strings
Playing soothing music for the ears.
Dreaming unknown presence
Guiding the lost conscience.
Dreaming unlit candles
Dazzling dark nights.
Dreaming tiny raindrops
Quenching thirsty soul.
Dreaming unclosed door
Leading to the horizon
Standing at the zenith.
Without climbing the ladder
Dreaming and dreaming and dreaming................

Pain In Disguise

I can’t escape this feeling
That grows inside of me
All i can think about is that i am guilty
When all i want is to hurt no one
And just be me.......
It aches my heart to learn
Of the crime it cannot repent
Captivated by its sadness
When all i want is to be nice
And just be me.............
Knowing this shatters my feelings
Makes me contemplate a thousand times
For it is hard to realize
When you cared for someone
Expecting nothing in return
But in the end
What i have is blaming myself.......
For expecting a little truthfulness
Now i regret my foolishness
To believe in the mirage of faithfulness .............

A Dream Come True

Hari only a thirteen year old boy but endured enough vicissitudes of life, in his this short span as he has been his own caretaker had no family to take care of him when he was weak, no one to wipe his tears when he cried, no mother to sing him a lullaby, no father to encourage when he was feelinglow, so what no one was there for him he had grown to live his own life discerning the numerous facets of life, learning and earning by himself. Every night he found a new perch to nestle under the starry sky, be it footpath strewn with wastes or a murky pipe or any place.
Poise in his sleep, an unfamiliar man affably places his arms around Hari’s shoulders says to him go get yourself and your little brother a candy. He quickly takes the money from his father grabs his brothers hand and darts away from the front gate crossing the road and reaches the candy shop asks the shopkeeper to give him the candy, after taking his candy he turns his back to the shopkeeper carefully unwraps the cover, saliva drools in his mouth just as he brings the candy close to his mouth to taste, the shopkeeper bangs his back to ask for money and bam! the candy falls down. Trepidation overtakes him, weary he wakes up, sees hither and thither finds no one, sadly lowers his head down feeling dejected, tears start to trickle down his cheeks regretting that he has no family. He had always pictured himself having a candy from his father. But this was never going to happen.
In the morning he comes to the place where his work is to clean cars, for which his boss paid a petty amount just sufficient to afford him a day’s food. But he was not sad about this; he just wanted family, parents whose eternal love he could feel, siblings to fight share and love. Every day he saved some amount, the accrued money was capable to buy him only one candy which cheered him for a while and brought a smile on his face.
In the evening after completing all the chores, taking his wage from the boss and adding it to the saved money he now finally has the money to buy himself a candy so he progresses towards the candy shop, on his way his eyes are distracted from the road by a mother and her kid in the sidewalk, the kid crying heavily the mom seemed exhausted unable to control her baby, after passing them also he turned his head again and again he just could not take his eyes off them, he reached the shop bought the candy and without wasting a second sprinted towards the kid and gives him his own candy the kid takes the candy and crying gradually stops. He walks away, feeling the void of his life filled with joy, happy to bring smile in a kid’s life, giving him the satisfaction as if completing his own family portrait, by experiencing the love he missed in his life by sharing................

Cracked Side

Not a genius like Einstein or Newton
But crack enough to fall because of own mistakes and learn.............
Not an epitome of ideals
But crack enough to loud voices for the righteous............
Not done any laudatory act
But crack enough to do anything and everything for friends............
Not a winner
But crack enough to face any challenge of life................
Not the reason of happiness for others
But crack enough to cry for the happiness of loved ones....................
Not pained by wounds
But crack enough to feel...................
Not always successful
But crack enough to believe in dreams.................

Feel Good Feeling...

Feeling heart beats,
Happiness breathing in,
Because the joy is pristine.

Pure mind and thoughts,
Scurry in realms of dreams,
Because the journey is towards fulfilment.

Laughter and smile,
Throw worries into oblivion,
Because the ecstasy empowers.

Bliss and charm,
Make life picturesque,
Because the liveliness in life never dies.
