Meeting

We will meet one day 
I wish it to be at a beach 
To see the sunset together 
And get the inkling for 
Seeing sunrises together 
While we play with the waves 
Make sand castles of dreams 
Walk with hands together 
Talking all the silent thoughts 
Feeling the affection in breeze 
Building a bond that could last
A lifetime

You Stir My Soul

You stir my soul 
With your presence 
With your smile 
You stir my heart 
It flashes in my eyes 
Like a movie of you 
You stir my mind few
Like a melody tune 
That keeps buzzing 
Wherever I go 
You stir my life 
Gave a reason 
To live to be with you 
You're my love

Love And Reality


 

I am no younger

I am closer to my forties 

The ladies of my age are married  

I do miss a good company of a lady

I wonder if I will fall in love ever again

The heartbreaks that shaped my present 

The loss of opportunities due to depression 

I wonder If I could trust another woman 

To bring hope and seal my healed heart 

Maybe, I am averse to taking a risk

Without sorting out my finances 

To not to be in a situation again 

Where I cannot afford the lady

Nor win over her family 

I wonder why I come across 

Nice ladies from far away places

I write poems about my crushes 

My heart is hardened to stop there 

I would leave my native someday 

Like I attempted five times in the last decade 

I don't wish to raise a kid given my mental health

I don't know If I will come across a woman 

Who will make me wish to build a home! 



The poem is inspired by the prompt  #Satsplat .  The image was taken by Travis Grossen

Isn’t This A Beautiful Silent Love?

 



We met for a purpose that we knew

From the moment we started talking  

We started a journey of friendship

Which we never hoped to have in real

 

Don’t even know how we got involved

Deeply In each other’s personal lives

Sharing those fun times and memories

That gave joy as well as immense pain

 

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

When I know I m in your heart

When you know you are in my heart

Even in dreams, we are together

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

 

We are trying to shrug off our emotions

Even though we like each other so much

As we know it is hard to be together in real

Yet, we wish to change the circumstances

 

We made each other stronger with care

We wiped out each other’s tears with hope

We gave affection without even realizing

We shared our love without uttering a word

 

 

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

When I know I m in your heart

When you know you are in my heart

Even in dreams, we are together

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

 

We are still wondering, what made us closer

Inner voices always made us be in touch

Giving all our goodwill, we changed our lives

Looking ahead with some prayers for unison

 

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

When I know I m in your heart

When you know you are in my heart

Even in dreams, we are together

Isn’t this a beautiful silent love?

 










This was an attempt to write a song back in 2008. My friend Thomas recorded some songs based on my lyrics during that period. We had a wish to start a band. It sounds funny now when I look back.  Pictures were taken by Nathan Dumlao and Fanny Gustaffson

Falling In Love


A pretty smile from her teenage 

That stayed in my heart secretly 

As we grew into close friends 

Spending hours sharing little things 

Like happiness, incidents and secrets 

I realised she looked up to me faithfully

I felt a spark in my heart about her 

Her smile over the years became prettier

My mind couldn't stop thinking about her 

Her way of telling things first to me with 

So much excitement made me feel good 

Conversations with her became special 

Butterflies flew in my tummy whenever 

I heard her voice rumbling her things

I used to wait for her monthly call eagerly 

Sneaking away from her college or home

The calls became frequent over the time 

I couldn't tell her that I fell in love with her 

As her best friend,I couldn't let her down

I wrote many poetries about her secretly 

She let me flirt with her on valentines day 

I felt an intense bond thriving between us

Without uttering anything about love 

She became romantic and we became 

Mad lovers separated by the time zones 

She showered me with so much affection

Her husky voice became my morning light 

I shared my poetries about her, she liked 

I saw a life with her closer to a beach 

She invited me to her city to move ahead 




This poem is based on prompt "Describe what it was like to fall in love".

One More Yesterday




I wish one more yesterday 
If I could, with you 
To walk along the Marina beach
Where I wished to propose you 
Holding your hands like lovers 
Without any undisturbed winds 
To hear your husky voice calling me
darling and sharing your thoughts 
I wish to see your colourful smile 
For one more time to seal it in my heart 
And walk away towards the grim sunset
Without saying goodbyes and any tears 
I want to purge the memories with you 
In the poems, I wrote for you years ago 
I know that you have read each of them 
I'll light a lamp with ounces of  whiskey 
Like a dark love burning bright at its end

A Blue Lake of Love

A blue lake of love 
Looks surreal with green backdrop 
The thistle flowers dance with wind 
While flora find the vibes of romance
Let's sail our boat of crush and flirt 
And see how far we can go with wind
I'll try to win your heart, you try to stop
I'll lose in your eyes, you try to evade it 
I'll steal your smiles, you try blankface
I'll glorify your beauty, you try not to fall
You don't have to try anything for me 
I've already fallen in dreams about you 
We can send our poetries into the sky 
Let the wind take them to new shores
While you decide the fate of our future

Let's Meet At Hill Top

Let us meet at Ponmudi hill top
We can embrace clouds at dawn 
And wander through the meadows 
Whispering the secrets from hearts 
We can observe the hillocks around 
And select the prettiest to set a home 

Let us light the candles at night
On the big rock resting on a stone 
When the breeze is gentle and cold
We can spot all the celestial bodies 
Maneuvering  along the astral plane 
And rewrite the stars with our fantasy

Let us wait for the late night rain 
That will hide the shy moon subtly 
And dance with our sodden bodies 
Brave the cold droplets of desires 
Until we find our way back to cottage
To quench the thirst of our wild souls

I love you from the bottom of my heart




I live with a hope that my
Love will find its way to
You, one day
 From the moment, I met you
The wishful heart craved for you   
Bottom to top it beat the rhythm
 Of your dreams and smile
My wish is to keep them sparkling with
 Heartily promise to wipe your tears all along

Surreal to Real



Barriers are crumbling down
Distances are narrowing down
Hearts are falling down
For the invisible souls
That keeps flying afar
Through the wings of the web
Sharing all the sweetest dreams
Poaching all the darkest secrets
Sourcing all the hardest exploits
Wiping all the bloody tears
Riding an adventure
Full of hope
Awaiting
Unison
Face to face
Voice to voice
Embrace to embrace
So real from surreal
Hours that brought together
The souls through words
Magical views on screen
Games played with fun
Fights fought with fury
Patch ups done with passion
Promises made with devotion
Altogether now looks real
While holding the hands
While looking at the eyes
Bemused without words
It’s the dawn of a relation
Cemented with love
From surreal to real 



This poem is about two people who fell in love through facebook, whom i met today on a park. Images thanks to google.

Goodbye





I am moving to a new shore
I have left a piece of my heart
At your door
Without knocking, like a trespasser
I hope you will open the door
I wonder if you will see it
It holds a piece of my dreams
Which I wished to share with you
It still carries the urn of my feelings
That I never expressed
I wished to conquer your heart
Silently, with a feather touch of emotions
Now, you are beyond my reach
As you have found your destiny
I wish to hold your smile
In my eyes forever as a precious gift
I still hear your voice, when I am alone
Through the realms of my ears
I don’t wish to see tears or fury
In your eyes
As I love it to remain vibrant
So, I won’t leave any words
That might hurt your beliefs
Though I wish to let you know
I’ve fallen for you
Right when I saw your eyes greeting me

Be My Valentine



Bring a new spring into my barren life
Erasing the thorns of past from memory



My heart is waiting with roses of hope to welcome you
Yearning to drizzle love in your heart like a monsoon 


Vast seasons await our journey together
Across the world with the wings of dreams
Let me show all the wonders you wish to see
Elating you to the skies, fulfilling your wishes
Nurturing your smile like a classic portrait
Teasing your eyes with silent acts of drama
I wish to hold your hand for rest of my life  
Negating all the lows and rooting all the highs
Emptying your sorrows with a touch of magic

I dedicate this poem to all the people who are in love! Happy Valentines Day ! You may get blessed with love of your life! Images Thanks to Google. Visit  acrosticonly  and onestoppoetry  for other poets works. Thanks. :)

Proposal in rain



Sunny morning greeted her a message
An invitation to be there at the rose hill
A serene garden of fragrant pretty roses
A place for romance amidst the silence
That is breached only by the mystic wind
The tales of love  written all over the air
The songs of love sung by the butterflies
Welcomed her to a world of lively dreams


The roses smiled at her as if greeting a friend
While her eyes scrambled around for a glimpse
Of her beloved man who invited her for a date
The  signboards encrypted with roses lead her
Towards the an arena of her favorite pink roses  


Surprised at the deserted look of the garden
She looked around with her pleading eyes
She asked him to come alight sweetly
It’s the rain that drizzled in return

she looked skywards delightfully
Closing her eyes with a charm
she embraced the rain  as a gift
she drenched in company of roses

when she opened her eyes slowly
she saw the exotic bunch of pink roses
within the reach of her trembling  hands
As she felt butterflies in her tummy atonce
Seeing her lover on his knees with a  smile
Asking her if she will marry him amidst roses

Cracking her secret wish like a smart magician
She took the roses and embraced the silence
She heard his heartbeats aloud in that frozen
Emotion filled rose garden conquered by rain
She erupted the passion and joy with her yes

As he jumped like a crazy kid punching the air
Before hugging her with an aura of gratitude
For accepting his wish to share life with her
Even as the rain kept dancing in its full rhythm

Soul in rain



It rained like the drizzle of souls
It reminded me of a beautiful soul
She loves the rain crazily just as me


She is beyond the miles I could cover
She is beyond the reach of my hopes
She is beyond the grasp of my dreams
She is beyond the realms of my prayers




But, as I closed my eyes, I saw her enjoying rain
By letting the blessed rain to baptize her lost soul
Embracing the healing nectar from the heaven
She flapped her hands like wings of a dove
To feel the freedom she craved all her life
She encircled the rain like a dazzling top
Splashing the droplets allover tangentially


Her artistic feets created a swirl on rainy floor
Then she stood still to take a deep breath of sigh  
She closed her hopeful eyes to make a dearest wish
She folded her hands at once like twin bowls of wishes
She collected the sweet droplets of rainy desires
To fill her heart with fresh desires for the future
As she wished to erase her broken dreams


When she opened her eyes, she saw me
Her eyes sprinkled the rays of joyous smile
I leaned forward to catch her shivering hand
For a walk through the deserted street in rain
But, to my surprise, she gingerly ran past me
With a shy smile, challenging me to catch her  
But I stood frozen watching her crazy antics
Dancing like a little girl forgetting everything


I wished to freeze the mood in her heart forever
So that she don’t have to shed her tears and hide it  
While drenching in a chilly rain, defying the lightening
The glimpse of her curves tangled in drenched drapes
Left my lustful eyes mesmerized in the glory
Of being a twin soul to a honest girl
As she doesn’t veil her heart
When she is with me
As she loved being herself
In my company through the years  


She shrugged me off from my naughty thoughts
While holding my hand and asking for a walk
Yet she didn’t miss out on mocking me
With her unique black humor


We shared some lighter moments in that rain
We breached the barriers of silent sorrow
With the warmth of our hopes of a life together
Noise from somewhere vanished my daydream abruptly  
And I opened my eyes to traverse my lonely journey as usual

I love you


I wish to share my
Life with you, though
Odds are against us
Voice of my heart is
Earnestly inviting
You to join me
On a journey through
Umpteen seasons
