Silence


When I see you silent
A feeling of discomfort arises
I always try to hide it, screw it
But it comes out as words
A knee-jerk reaction of sorts
I know there is a reason for your silence
Some times, you don’t want to share
But curious mind always craves to track it
I try all my tricks to get you speak
But I know you are a  tough nut to crack
It may be irritating for you
But what to do, instincts are hard to suppress
When deliberation plays in,
Desperation has to make way
I always want to see you vibrant
Crushing the very silence with a smile
I always want to see you laughing
As a gesture against bad moods
I want to find answers to your silence
The solutions for the problems beneath it
yet, every now and then your silence abrupt
Making me bit concerned
There is something to tell for that silence
A silence in return will be nice sometimes
Let’s talk in the language of silence
Until the smiles are back at the eyes
and words are back at the lips
With brand new excitement.


Port of New Hope


One day i will be there
To see you my dream, in real
I waited for a long time
To start this journey of my lifetime
I saw you everyday in my mind
I wished only one thing
To be there, to see you once
Then to be with you forever
Time is running out
Seasons moving out in haste
Every day that passed away
Reminded me about you
That I am so far away from you
It always haunted me like hell
Now my wait is over
I have drawn my path on the map
To be there at the shortest time
To embrace you my love
Then to build a life together
Over the blocks of the past
With the hopes for future as pillars
Once I am there
I could see your smile
I could feel the pressure of moving ahead
I always thought why I am waiting
When the destiny is calling me
To be there at the place of yours
Where all the pleasure I want is waiting
But the lazy thoughts hold me back for long
Its not the fear, more of the curiosity
That wired me up to this land
Now my eyes see you only
My words talks about you only
Imagining about the first meeting
Working out on the things to say
Planning the places to explore
Now the distance means nothing
I feel that you are closer than ever before
Awaiting my arrival at the Port of New Hope


Eluding Rest


Sleeps with a glance at moon
Wakes up with a glance at sun
In between resting all the thoughts of worries
In the bed of dreams
Every smile and every tear
Comes together and asks each other
Why did you shine in the face?
Why did you spoil the face?
Every thing becomes idle or unworthy
For a mere few moments of solemn peace
In a life without time to rest
As tension rules every second
For meeting deadlines and promises as per obligation
Achieving big all the time is a necessity
To be able to lead a life in future
Supposedly a beautiful and peaceful
But at the cost of the present
Without enjoying the very moments
That one lives on for reaching future

One Break Express





Viewers, deemed as customers
Catered with flurry of ads
With competition to survive
At the neck, all the time
There comes the super hero
Who eliminates long ad breaks
With precision time machines
On behalf of beloved TV channels
As ads kept viewers rushing
For their remotes for change
Super hero took a new avatar
One break express, a new funda
Ads free programmes guaranteed
But this one break express
Stretches more than quarter of an hour
Showing all ads in a nutshell
In the mode of sports highlights
Leaving viewers with enough time
To do all other activities
Before enjoying a nice movie 

It was quite amusing to see the gimmicks of TV channels stating that they are curtailing ads. Then they showed comic heroes and ads to substantiate their claims.

Spoon storm





it's a minute storm, that we create in a bowl
With the swirling force of spoon,
But if seen through eyes of small particles,
Present in that bowl, it’s enormous and fiery
As they are squeezed, swirled up and down
With no ways to escape 



This poem is inspired by a haiku that I read today.
