YOU

Such was the nature of your love –

you didn't even care

to say goodbye.

A FACE

A happy face I saw– unknown,
yet it felt so familiar,
like someone I have known,
That smile, that face,
why can't I forget?

Were you for real,
or just a dream
my waking eyes
happened to see?

Translation of my Hindi poem–एक चेहरा.

THE OCEAN CALLED LOVE

Love doesn't come and go
like waves,
doesn't change every moment,
nor does it touch only
a part of you.

Love is the ocean –
it drowns you for good.

एक चेहरा

एक खुश चेहरा
जो देखा अंजाना
क्यूं लगा कोई जाना पहचाना सा ?
वो हंसी, वो चेहरा,
क्यूं भुलाए नहीं भूलता ?

क्या हकीकत में हो तुम,
या कोई ख्वाब हो तुम,
जिसे जागते हुए इन आंखों ने देखा ?

HOLD ON

Hold on to hope

someday, one day,

everything will be all right.

Love will find its way

to your heart.

WHEN EYES SPEAK

Your eyes are
the mirror
of your heart.

They reveal
what your heart
tries to conceal.

Silence of your
eyes spoke
what your lips
failed to say.

NATURE RESCUES

Life is so harsh
perhaps that's why
nature gave us
flowers and butterflies
to help us forget the pain
even if only
for a moment.
