The world is not a whirlpool.

Don't get ****** in.

If I meant everything to you
why did I feel inadequate...

When I set outward
I use the mirror
for an external reflection.
The mirror only shows
what I am willing to reveal.
Neither approval nor disapproval.

When I turn inward
my soul, my real mirror,
it does not see,
it sees through...
My past, present and future.
Nothing to hide
yet no content to discuss.
A mirror that
does not reflect.
A mirror that
is not my reflection
in time and space.
A mirror that is
my pilgrimage
to the Divine...

Most wounds heal inspite of
Pain forever remains because of

No fence, no boundary
No gate, no door.
A grain of sand
Is all I am.

No name, no fame
No pain, no gain.
A grain of sand
Is all I am.

No copyright, no issue
No love, no hate.
A grain of sand
Is all I am.

Lot of people love me
Because

You prove them all wrong
By loving me
In spite of...

Friends are like parents
who hold us
when our steps falter.

Friends are like siblings
great to fight with
great to celebrate with.

Friends are like mirrors
they never let you
fool yourself.

Friends are like the weather
your personal sunshine
on a rainy day.

Friends are like make up
they always make you
look better.

Friends are like alcohol
they always
put you on a high.

CHEERS TO FRIENDSHIP...

When you are empty
not only will you
quench the thirst of others
but also your own.

Tap the source of existence,
**OVERFLOW

I am alone but
I am not lonely.*

I don't give you
a name,
for I am secure
being me.

They say sincerity pays

Yet

It never paid me a dime.

We all are...
Live dwelling places
of the
LORD

Prayer houses...
Made of stone

A forgotten conversation arises,
each time I see you.
I run away, afraid,
you will see me,
worse, see through me...

You gaze
Beyond what I dare to reveal.
You know I am broken
You know how to fix me.
You and I
make no sense together.
A lock and a key
never stay together.
Yet useless alone...
       But You,

You always be my lock.
Don't be a candle
that attracts many moths.
Just be the lock
to the key that I am.

The mind is my cage,
thoughts painted gold
pin me down.

Wide awake,
I pretend to sleep.
Who can awaken
this fool
Who
lies awake...

Somewhere, that is
not a 'where' one day
I will find You...

Somehow, without
a 'how' one day
I will know You...

Someplace, that is
not a 'place' one day
I will live with You...

Time fleeting
a thought
of You
arises...

Breath fleeting
yearning to
hold You
arises...

Death pauses
I still
have to
make You
my life...

I've dreamed
so many dreams.
Each dream unique.

The same I
woke up each time.

Who is really I,
the one in the many
or the many in one...

I am the only one
Asleep at my wake.

Memories of everyone
I have known...
Stay imprisioned
in my mind.

I do not remember,
having remembered You...

In not remembering
You
I set myself
free...

Nowhere to go
Move within
The ocean drowned
In the drop
Within...

Better to be alone with yourself
than with someone else...

Sometimes
I'm at a loss for words.

Sometimes
I feel what words cannot describe.

Either way
I revel in silence.

Enjoy now...
It's the only way
you can outwit tomorrow.

Regret now...
It's the only way
you can forget tomorrow.

Time makes us feel
cynical, critical.

People make us feel
neglected, unwanted.

Circumstances lead us to
wear masks and we
forget the person
we used to be.

Till an old friend
comes looking for
the friend they knew.
Bringing old memories
and reminding you
... Of you

Nothing missing,
yet longing...

In brightness,
darkness  around...

Close to you,
yet alone...

Sleep laden eyes,
lie awake..

Everything I want,
yet nothing...

Don't come to my wake
if you hear I am
having one.
If you come they will wonder
why I lay awake
at my wake
still looking for you.
Don't spoil the party please.

Don't come to the drop-off
or i may never take-off.
Please don't fool me again.
My friends await, my only friends
who accept me as I come
and even lick my wounds.

After the feast, my heart untouched
Battered and broken yet beating
for you.
Don't come to claim it please.

Everyone knows you are not with me.
I prefer that they believe so,
This way you become everything,
I taste you in every meal,
i add all of you to everything I do, you shine in my word and we savour each other in aloneness in your being the centre of absence.

I want to be there,

want to matter.

I'm resigning.

I taste You in the
meal of the lion
that eats no grass
having tasted blood.

I hear You in the
silence of the noise
of the wrong chord
i often hit.

I see you in the
dark of a moonless night
and follow the fire flies
that You are.

Everyone meets You everyday
But yet know not,
so close and yet so far away.

Looking upward to find You
is an exercise for the neck.
            
                You are the animate
                 You are the inanimate,
                  You simply are...

DONT
answer the question always.

Question the answers to
KNOW

Sometimes
we pay
a heavy price
when we
love someone.

Some
feelings
dime a dozen...

Attachment
100% discount...

No one can prove
the presence or absence
of that which is
Omnipresent
yet does not exist.

Your name and your fame
will assault you.
Do not linger to ponder
who you are.

People and places that attract you
will evevtually destroy you,
piece by piece or
swallow you whole.

Or you will destroy
people and places that attract you,
with your indifference
or your boredom.

My pen is my heart
which doesn't think of you.
It thinks you dear.

My words are not poems
I write you dear.

My ink flows and I become You...

The chaos in my mind
is where I find peace.
Everything within peaceful...
Outside only noise...

It’s so beautiful
how the universe aligned
to push me further  
into the storm.
I would have never
found the calm
at the centre otherwise.



So grateful at everything and everyone that was wrong for me. What I found so tough to understand and undergo is what I call my spine.

If I allow
you to seep
in...

How am I
ever going to
get...

**CLOSURE

The empty cup
the empty jar pours into
That's fullness...

Often
I don't let
my demons in.

When
I do
we begin
where we left off
as old friends do.

We borrowed each other from the universe.
Nothing borrowed is meant to stay forever

The same moon never reflected
In the same river...
TWICE.

Sometimes I wonder what is real
Your absence
Or presence...

His Will never takes you
Where His Grace doesn't protect...

I have created
so many relationships
that
sometimes
I find...
No me
For myself...
