this invisible monster is strong and i'm stronger,
but right now i'm just tired

Tomorrow

Someone that I cared for
Once asked my favorite word.
I didn’t have an answer then,
But now I do.

Tomorrow is a word that rings,
A bell whose sound we chase and try to catch.
Through the years we follow,
It’s echoes full of hope and full of fear.

Tomorrow makes no promises,
No warranties on joy;
An accident, a tragedy,
Could be beyond this night.

But though I know that this is true,
And sadness comes for all,
Tomorrow too could hold the door
For my future self

That joyful woman I hope to be
Once all is right that can be fixed.
And so I chase tomorrow’s ringing,
Clear and pure through the nights of time,


And I know that soon the night will end,
And she’ll wait for me at tomorrow.

She Writes
She longs for nights filled with sparks
lust and pleasure
Whiskey lips and naked kisses
Bodies close together

थम जा ए जिंदगी
अभी कुछ पल जीना बाकी है
ठहर जा एक पल को जरा
कड़वे कुछ गम के प्याले पीना बाकी है

वो जब एक ख्वाब सा टूटा था
वो साथ जो छुटा था
पी लिए थे सारे अश्क जमाने की सोच कर
जी भर के वो रुआँसी पलके भिगोना बाकी है
रुक जा ए जिंदगी..........

वो हम जो रूठे थे , उनके लाख मनाने पर
आसमा पाने , छोड़ गए थे कापते हाथ गुमनाम किनारे पर
किये पर इस रूह को हर दिन तड़पाना बाकी है
रुक जा ए जिंदगी...........

अब जो धुंधला गई है आँखे
बेवफा सी नजर आती है सासे
कितना भी समेटु बिते पलो को
हाथो में रेत की तरह हर याद गुम जाती है

कुछ पल बस कुछ पल थम जा जिंदगी
वो अधूरी ख्वाहिश जीना बाकी है
थोड़ा और जीना बाकी है.....

She was like music,
and I longed to dance.

Her heart was the beat,
and I begged for the chance.

Her words were the vocals,
and I was put in a trance.

Her smile was the melody,
and I fell in love at first glance.
We lived as the slaves of consequence
For one above all created our life to be transcendent
Fated to live on without a preference
Never know the true meaning of deliverance

In the black and blue we hanged our life
Hoping that someday we will survive
But destiny always forced us to strife
And will not given us any compromise

Everything will turn to be a void
For regret is the one we can't avoid
The answers that we always fought
Are not the things that we truly sought

No one can know your pain
Not nearly as well as yourself
But the rope won't take it away
It just gives it to someone else

have you ever wondered
why   am   i   always
f  a  s  c  i  n  a  t  e  d
with the phenomena
of     a    red and rare
l u n a r   e c l i p s e?

with every time we meet,
i turn red;
but with every time we part,
i don't turn blue.

rare doesn't mean
"once in a lifetime."
it only means that
you'll always return,
no matter how long it takes.

and i believe that
someday
for sure
again:
*i'll see you.
aren't we all fascinated with the things, events, and people which come rare?
it makes us cherish them well.

Can we turn days into new beginning?
Can we mix up colours of life and put into painting?
Can we bring back time when there's no pain?
Can we be friends, again?

Can we dance to the tune of life together?
Can we take life's steps without fear?
Can we leave what's unbearable to find new gain?
Can we be friends, again?

Can we take away all those gloomy remnants of the past?
Can we rewrite a new story that will last?
Can we build bridge of friendship despite our differences?
Can you take chances?
