My Dear!
Don't you know?
I 'd carved your name
in my heart
and locked it
inside a box
of devotion

the keys
were thrown away
in the river
of love..

So my dear
There's no going back  - for me

All the boats
of doubts
have been burnt
before you could
be taken away...

All the bridges
of mistrust
have collapsed
So we could not
walk out
on each other

All the egoes and prides
been buried

There's nothing
but our own
constellation
of hope and dreams


So tell me now
How are you
planning to escape from
"never- never land"...

Far beyond the horizon
the show begins
and the sun
starts to set
Painting the sky
with red
and many shades and blends
of orange
It's the hour
when sadness descends
gratuitously...
Ripples of light
fades away...
and so the birds
call it a night
so why are we
standing on the shore,
watching this spectacle
and still wandering?
goldenhour sunset wandering love

Not long ago,
I started wandering
in my dreams
on some uncharted waters
and it seems  
that those don’t come true
live
now and forever…

It’s  a night full of stars
shining million miles away...
and yet
the majestic beauty of our very earth
drawing them into the fray...
breaking them apart
and then to the earth
Some of them depart...
As they get closer - they turn
to hot fiery ball
No one could knew
the meaning they hold
a wish .. a warning...a  confession...
Or a war....
But we all love watching
The falling stars..

It was cold lousy and stormy day,
and there i was
watching my hopes and dreams
slip away...
so I looked up the sky
to keep my anguish  and suffering at bay
watching the moonlight - swiftly glides
and there I was
with my deep thoughts  - making strides
letting myself soaked in the rain
letting all the tiny raindrops
wash over me
and making me whole Again!

You don't need to run  
You don't need to prove anything
to anyone...
Remember!
It's not a race
so you don't have to keep up
with the pace...
Take a  step at a time
even if you are in your prime...
just like a toddler
or a mountain climber
Progress is all you need
No matter how small
no matter if you crawl
or even if you fall
as long as you rise
Remember!
You will always get the prize...

Strolling down memory lane
I found the flame of love and hope
Along with it, there’s some pain
Thinking now – How do I escape?
It’s high, steep and rugged terrain
If only hopes could build a stairway
Maybe , just maybe we could meet again!
