Self imposed
But strange compulsion
To pen my thoughts
In to a poem

Digging my head
To come up something better
So thought probably should go out
And unlock the fetter

Went for shopping
To peace my brain
Random thoughts
but not one good to explain

Now I think
Am slipping in to this well
Comfortable being lonely
Someone did cast a spell

Strangely
Guys pass by me
And am least impressed
Writting my heart out
As my world is now poetically dressed

You cannot
Win me over by sheer show
Get your brain working
And use words in a flow

What I wrote makes no sense
Excuse the poet for pretence

And this is how my sunday ended
Forgive me , if you feel offended


Manisha

Scrambling words on a paper
random thoughts in mind

my position is not clear
a dreamer, a lover or nothing else I could find

writting reflect my state of mind
reaching for the pen, even when my office work is getting piled
I am normal or is it really not fine.

feelings are confusing and emotions are playing havoc
I zone out even in crowd, pretending listening even when am not

I should get back working, its high time
writing even when am not a writer, I hope its not a crime.

Manisha

eyes are bleeding
And throat is sore
My heart is punctured
And am almost dead

World is crying
And all ears have turned deaf
Humanity is stolen
And only cruelty is left

Children are hungry
And eating your left
Stolen away from mothers
To earn bread before the sun sets

for the sake of religion
Digging graves of their brothers
Vomiting the words of hatred
And preaching anger

Torturing weak to turning slave
Chopping their tongue
And never let them say

Political bashings continues it's stay
Yet we celebrate all sorts of days

Why is the human inside us dead
Why is humanity stolen
And cruelty left


Manisha

Deserted dry land
Bodering the princely state
There once lived
A king unconquered till date

Never did he surrendered his will
The glance at the beauty clear as milk
Diamond eyes and smile as fresh as spring
Heart slipped wrapped up in royal silk

pincess Hadi, greeted his love
Together bonded forever in bliss until,the bells of danger started to ring
And it was time for a good bye kiss

Duty or love he had to weigh
Said to her, he might rather stay
Bold Queen Radi had rajput blood
Convinced her husband to serve nation first
Reluctant he, agreed to the terms
Asking for a love token to take
Radi the queen surprised him when
Served him, her beheaded head
So that nothing could come between him and the nation at stake


Manisha

Me- come near me
Why do you fear
I will write sweet
And will try to be clear

Paper- you liar
You'll draw circles
Until I die in pain
Roll in to ***** and straight
in to drain

Me- No dear friend
I Shall explain love
And soltitude and discuss
pain
Or probably it's easy to write
about rain

Paper- my destiny
Is in your hands
I shall rot in dustbin
Or shine on wall in a golden
frame

Me- muses are resting
At a far away land
Till then bear my friend
If I write anything insane

Manisha

Ablaze night, by the pearls white
Sickle moon, shinning silver in light
Thrift of the whistling wind
And tap of the hooves ringing loud
Rider of the sky
In whites of the cloud

Fiery vermilion on the fore head
Valiant like sun
Eyes like fire, tall stature with mountain strength 
His gallant armor with diamond harpe his only weapon 
Crown of his, unique of the clan
Heroic dazzle and rings of power in his hand 

 Shelter far away in the milky land 
In the galaxy of the stars 
With golden falls and silky sand
Red grasslands and purple hanging trees
Reverse in the times of the gigantic clock wheel 

Fire wings , of silk white
Flying open with the riding wind
To his hides,up away in the hills
Disappearing with the shade of light


Manisha

Dipped in mild rain
over the black pepper sky
rollers bolted with panache walk
ruffled & dusted , their style

their teethy smile with rocky cuddles
And then they collide,
bursting in to pebbles

path, once led by the rolling stones
Now dusted trails in silence of winds
they click musicals
Uncovering the destiny ,thus their story begins

marching sounds of invasion
territories new, abounds the future unknown
brazen roads up to the corner of the sea
where once , little daunting cold had grown


careful walk , delicate as it could be
they slip quietly in to the ocean
as the rest after the thunder, they had forseen


manisha

Friends we were turning
passion started burning
something got cooking
love we were looking
friends were mocking
we kept rocking
we went talking
result was shocking
u were hoping
Made me running
future you dreaming
I doubt, returning
so, I continue running

Manisha

The colorful black
shadow in light
green in wintery white
and love in fight

Your presence in absence
am complete inside
silence in words
faith strong in my mind

your vision in darkness
allows me to confide
can count on you
and save my pride

your anger in love
saves me nine
acceptance even in denials
my dear, am all fine

Manisha

Dark street
Silence creeps
Only light
Full moon bright

Buzzing crickets
Sing their song
Dying old tree
Won't stay long

Telephone booth
Across the road
Awaits the call
From the lover abroad

Rocket wind
Whistles anger
Eating everything
To turn stronger

Night progresses
Marching in
darkness thickens
and silence wins

Manisha

It Flows like a river not discovered
Feels as fresh as dew resting
on a soft red rose petal
When they sing their voices eco
In the hills
To come back even more stronger
The songs are embedded so deep              
Subtle Rawness in the lyrics
So describes the enchanting
Pahari lok geet

song for the trees
Song for hills
Song for daughters
And songs to plead
Stop this destruction and end the greed

Sounds of bagpipers
Is still so fresh
in the memories
of my childhood days
How beautifully it
Intensified every emotion
culture,tradition
And kindness in the prays

Manisha

Standing rock
Round the clock

Crying soul
M here to console

Soft giggles
I knw ur riddles

Frustrated force
Think before u roar

Shy eyes
Getting butterflies

Mystery grin
I see no sin

Impractical crush
Forceful ******

Varied emotions triggered
I stand unflickered

Manisha

Sometimes
we realize
the value
Of a moment
when it becomes a memory
Sometimes
We pray
The lasting
Of a phase
And forget that its temporary
Often
In a rush
To see the end
We miss the present
Searching
the right time
just to find
Everything changed
and we haven't
Shocked we cry
that the world is mean
am left forlorn
And nothing left to be seen
So live
each moment
before it's gone
and
die in satisfaction
that you were not lone.

Manisha

I see.....
the, world is freeeee....
for you and me
to, celebrate our victory..

I sense
the, poor and hungreeee... (hungry)
Are, no more angreeeee.. (angry)

I touch...
No boundary. ..
we all are one country...

I speak...
the language I know
for love to show
and peace to grow...

I fight...
The smiling demon..
those playing with emotion
to end, the massive destruction.

I pray..
we sing together. .
a song forever..
to end this friendship never.

Manisha

Look for me, not near you
in the eyes and the moments that flew
dreams, so beautiful and the words that were true

remember me, not when I have gone
imbibe the wisdom I adorn

be good and always be kind
you are my soul, don't let my preachings undermine

fear me, not when you fail
but when the angel succumbs and the devil prevails

cry for my, not when I die
savour my prestige and keep it flying high

manisha

Holding hands she'll take you forward
trust her, let her take leap.
the seeds you sow today, let them reap

when the confusion prevails and the fight is intense
she will set the path right, until it all ends

trust her you'll touch skies
she'll end the procrastination and bring more life

she fuels the meaning to life amd moulds the dream to shape
let the child in her blossom who's never afraid
and
let the purpose win for which we were made....
