Darkness seeds the deepest crevices
With life-forms unknown to the world
Away from the glare and light of day
Unknown, yet they continue to thrive
A parallel system of lifestyle
Adapted to the harshest of conditions
Not in harmony with the lit up world
But in perfect sync with darkness itself

Life is but freedom
Born carefree
Simply the way we live
Nothing but love
For the beauty and acceptance
Deep within our world
We are aware of this simple rule
Acceptance, gratitude and change
Then we feared the simple
Started weaving a web of intricacies
Society was never the same
More complicated and prejudiced
Simple were looked at as insane
True love was under suspicion
Societal dogmas, mankind’s contribution
Vengeance against the tenets of life
That originally was gifted to us
Mired in numerous strings, which controls
Restricting our movement
We long forgot, life is freedom
True love is real, than ephemeral ones
We created this reality, we are in
None but us have to live like this
Until the time comes for us to break free
Go back to the unwritten golden rules
Where life should thrive
Without the fear from life itself

Life’s agendas
Its workings and
Different paths
A written scroll
Hidden from us
Meanderings
Challenges
Meanings
Incidents
Happiness
Sadness
Fa­ilures
And
Successes
Mixed feelings
Fleeting moments
Shackled by time
Cosmic trails
Lonesome travelers
Chance meetings
Many influences
And languages
Plethora of emotions
Insatiable minds
All included
In life’s agendas
Finally released
From time’s grasp

Life’s not an instant gratification
A tedious and rewarding journey it is
Patience is the key to learning
Life, the teacher, which shows the way
Everyday a new chapter, a different lesson
In humility, kindness, compassion and gratitude
With patience, it is an enriching experience
Hold on to life’s hand, trust a rewarding journey

Life gives you a whirlwind spin
Tumbling here and there
And then wrung, almost dry
Then sun dries out the rest
Left hanging on the line

Life’s like a beautiful painting
When you hold the color palette
And you have the urge to be a painter
Apply the beautiful colors
To create the most attractive painting
Brush away the blues
Put more colors of love
Mix the colors to get the desired hue
Let the canvas remind
How beautiful a painter you are

Retrace the light’s path
Go back to the origin
Started with a flicker
Now, burns itself
Infinite and inexhaustible
From an unknown source
Only eternity
Keeps alive the core
Life’s caressed by light
Centuries of gratitude
Path of light
Is a revelation

Caught between the mesh of rays
Light plays with the life’s existence
Oscillating between dawn, twilight and night
Etching out the horizon of life
Intrinsic influence on all the souls
This celestial space is swathed in new light
From the unknown origin, its journey
Cradles every life with equal benevolence
Kindles hope in every heart
Rays of light travels deeper into us
It heralds the beauty of every being here
Touches us with nimble rays
It’s an eternal repetition of the charmed circle

Draw a line
Feel the boundary
Not to trip over
Or falter
Only a line
Yet, restricting
Undulating ground
No straight lines
We may try
To draw perfect lines
Futile attempts
Only chasms
Line goes deeper
In hearts and
Annals of history
Edges out many
Marginalizing humanity

Roads don’t lead
To every place
On this planet
But the lure
Of the beauty
Of these haven
Is too much
To resist
The eyes have
Captured the serenity
And the heart
Yearns to reach there
Oblivious of the
Obstacles and barriers
Ready to carve
A road through
The rubble
Or even mountains
Scaling heights
Traveling length and breadth
Lonely feet
Will take the first steps
Towards the destination
Leaving behind
To embrace the unknown
Bravehearts will reach
No matter how
Creating roads
When there are none

Lonely wanderings
Holding hands with the wind
Flying away to distant lands
Over the mountains and seas
So many questions does arise
A silent reprise of my music
None, but these ears are tuned
A braveheart’s sojourn unknown
Here for a tryst with soliloquy
Answers from the heart and soul
A new journey awaits the wanderer

Loosen the strings
Attached to the world
Full of misery and darkness
Unbind the heart
Let free the soul
Unbounded spirit
Soars beyond happiness
Something extraordinary
Boundaries do not hold
Living the essence of free
Felt all over the being
Nothing but free spirited
When you loosen the strings

Between the interpretation
And misinterpretation
Of Love
It suffers the most
Silently shedding tears
For it was never given a chance
To express itself
To the hearts that yearn
In all this conundrum
Love loses
And we blame it
For our misfortune

Let love blossom in your heart
Set the intoxicating aroma free
Love, appeals to the deepest senses
Journey starts through sensual awakening
A realization of intricate facets of love
So many desired perceptions reflected
Eyes reflect the inner garden with blossoms
Paradise in waiting for the souls to roam
Every step takes further to a crescendo
Final awakening for the souls to real love

So many paeans are sung
Yet so often misunderstood
Leaving the heart grieving
Not nurtured with caring hands
Grief and heartbreak are companions

Love is not a hyperbole
Truth is in the subtleties
Arrives unexpectedly
Like gust of wind
To blow you away
And transport you
To a land of truth
Souls dance to its tune
In harmony
Till eternity, in your heart
Loves takes special space
In the realm of your life
Brings eternal sunshine

Words seem to fade away
In the labyrinth of time
Feelings are carved within
The walls of our essence
Mellow light burns eagerly
To keep us warm
With the blanket of memories
Emotions are intricate designs
Beautifully crafted
With the love that holds true
Chiseled in every crevice
The walls beat with anticipation
Words have no meaning
Living with the deep emotions  
Called love

When love goes unheard
And the song falls silent
Every bend seems a corner
Lonely walk cobbled street
Shadow gives you company
Faint light and pale glow
Memories are fresh
The love moments a mirage
Weary heart and staggering soul
Lonely stroll amid love lost
Unheard goes the plea
Broken heart and faint prayer
Love goes unheard

Love’s quiet reminiscing
Hearts quiver with eagerness  
Every distance conquerable
Enwrapped in an eternal bind

The sanctum sanctorum of love
Reverberates with the waves
From the souls that are in harmony
Welcomed with a tranquil presence
Uplifts you from mere existence
Surrounds you with the freedom
Where hearts run wild with euphoria
Dances to the signature tunes
Each note birthed from the souls
Prepare for a symphony of grandiose
Ostentatious display of true feelings
None, but the connoisseurs of Love
Are captivated with the harmony
When Love is interpreted from heart
This is for Love that does not alter
Remains etched in the mind, forever
Love is not a word, but a feeling, true
Neither what the world deciphers
It is not what we see everyday
Only with access to the sanctum sanctorum
Feel the love that's rare
Therein, lies the truth

Two love adventurers
Welcome the night
Many curves to explore
Trace the unknown haven
Clues spelled out with soft sighs
Finding each other’s comfort
Soul’s feel the warmth to the core
It’s an inseparable embrace
Sending shivers down every nerve
Finally to love adventurers
Exploiting the lovely terrains
Reach the peak of contentment
Now they lay exhausted
After a satisfying adventure

Love's misunderstood
By the heart
That’s unable to feel
We give the meanings
So many tags
Yet, love’s above all
We trivialize
And jeopardize
Expectations galore
None that Love wants
Above all our
Laid down rules
It’s akin to freedom
We seem to burden
It with materialistic
Paraphernalia
Love is rustic
Most simple of feelings
Complicated over the ages
Converted to a drama
Scripted by falsity
It’s above those words
Revealing the soul
To a pristine feeling
Thrown into murkiness
Sinister deals
Much effort to malign
Beautiful Love
Let Love be
Away from
Convoluted thoughts

Lure of lust
Love’s lost
Burning passion
Cinders remain
Heart’s remnants

A rendezvous between hearts  
Secrets shared with a kiss

Don’t walk out on love
When it comes knocking
Leaving the door ajar
Arms akimbo
Elbowing out the vibes
Every chamber of the heart
Filled with spurn
Verbal volleys
Destroying the core of love
Fueled with disgust
Love burns
In agony is the heart
The messenger of love
Knocked at the wrong door
With the right message
To the incorrect address
Destiny plays foul
Before it’s late
Desolate becomes the house
Only regret!
