Steer Clear

Who doesn't like to vent right? This poem below was written after a rather crazy fight with someone :P. Fact is it's usually fights with people who matter and are close to us that get us so worked up. I don't react in extremes with people who I don't know too well. But anyway, read ahead if you want to know what's coming your way if you decide to mess with me :D...

You don't like what u see...
You say I’m being unfair...
You think u know me...
You think I really care?

You have no clue...
I’m not just about
Sentimental shit...
Agree with you…
Day in and day out...
That’s just something
I won’t do…


When I have a bad time,
When I’m in that frame of mind...
It makes no difference
If my poem doesn’t rhyme
And makes no sense…

So long as you get the drift…
Read my lips loud and clear…
Stay out of my face…
Get out of here…
And off my case!

Friend

The one thing you can't predict is when and how love simply happens between individuals. When friends fall in love, it could be the start of a wonderful relationship or it could spell disaster too...esp. when they happen to be committed elsewhere already *sigh*... the lines below simply try and capture the frame of mind of someone caught in a similar situation...

Every time I pull you close

you walk
away ...
This is no game
that you and I
play ...

With words we weave
our own magical
tales ...

Solace we find in
each other
when all else
fails ...


We live
We play
with each other
 We give
We pray
for one another

Imagination takes us
to a different
place ...

The truth hits hard
the truth we...
you and I
must face...

We lay bare
our hearts...
Yet we can't help 
but care...
for others
unaware...

We walk apart
with nothing
but
regret
in our heart...


A wicked world
A cursed word
"friend"
Is this it?
Is this really?
The End.

*moments*

When you want to make it more than obvious :) and leave no room for doubt. Why hesitate...just be explicit and make the "moments" magical...hmmmmmmm :) ...

It's in the air...
this feeling
I sense it in me...
but
you're too wrapped up
to see

I could make it obvious
leave you with
no choice

How weird is that?
you can't sense it
when you look at my face
in my eyes...
in my smile...in my voice...

Yep I could
make it obvious
leave you with
no choice

Baby, I can give you
hell
and
heaven

You wouldn't know what
hit you
You wouldn't wanna
let go

Even if you did..
You'd be back
for more
yeah you would
for sure!

Hate

This one's pure venting! Written in a bad frame of mind for somone specific. Goes to show I get creative when I go into extreme's :P ... but on a more serious note, I guess it helps to let of steam once in a while and sometimes it is necessary to shed diplomacy and speak our mind!....

It doesn't matter
I really don't care!
Why show you bother?
...that you're there!

I can see right through you
Your fake concern
You make such an issue
Inside I burn

I hate hearing you
I hate looking at you
I know I don't need you

I have love in my life
I value people who matter
People who genuinely care
Who listen...who share!

Can I be more explicit?
Do you not get it??
You're making me hate
The person I am!
Filled with resentment,
That's what I am!

I'm a better person without you...
Believe me...
My life won't crash with out YOU!

Feel The Wind Blow...

The inspiration for this poem is sheer romance :)! Love is a subject one can write pages and pages on right. I also wrote this while I watched the moon one night and with memories of a beautiful night spent on the beach...

You feel the wind blow
You watch the water flow
In the moonlight,
You take a step slow

You watch her back
As she stands,
Facing the stream
You can’t see her face
But you feel her hands
Warm….soft…
You know this is real
No longer a dream

You feel the wind blow
You watch the water flow
In the moonlight
You feel your love grow

 In her eyes you see
The love she feels for you
In her smile you see
The happiness she gets from you

In the silent dark night,
In your heart
A promise you make,
To hold her close
Never for a moment
To be apart

In your arms,
She feels the wind blow
Watches the water flow
In the moonlight
You see her face glow

If I Die

I wrote this straight from the heart and I mean every word expressed here. One thing though... I do believe thinking/speaking of death is bad omen...and this was the one time I made an exception to pen down these lines! It is but obviously for the special someone in my life...

If I die,

Would you cry?
Why?

Because you love me?
Because life won’t be,
The same without me?

But ask me what I really want
If I were to die baby
I’d want you to,
Grieve for me just once
Then look at life ahead.
You may think you can’t
But life always moves on
After a long dark night
There’s always a beautiful dawn

When you think of me
I want you to smile
Memories
Pleasant, sad, crazy, happy
Flooding your mind
And just for a while…

Think of love…
Of our times together
Don’t regret that we,
Lost forever…

Think of the chance we got
At sharing a love
That truly was,
A blessing from above

So baby if I die…
Don’t you cry…ever
Know that… I will love you…
Just the same…forever

I smile and I pray

*sigh* time flies...and here I am completing one year in this blog. Yes tomorrow 16th March is the first anniversary of my fav blog (out of the 4 that I have). What a year it's been...full of mixed emotions. Some happiness, some pain...some letting go...some acceptance. Through it all I've cherished this blog the most coz this is where I've let my heart speak...in simple words that sometimes rhyme...that sometimes sing my hearts tune...that sometimes just cry my silent tears...

I don't get here as often as I do at my other blogs...I don't write poems that often. And some times revisiting some memories is difficult but yes, there are some memories here which make me smile...too...I love this space of mine...it is the closest to my heart...and will always be so! And the only way to celebrate that is by posting the following lines... :-) (This is my 20th poem here...)

Who says life’s got to be fair
Who says people are gonna care
I don’t want to complain
But life can sometimes be such a pain!

Sometimes life’s so beautiful
And sometimes life’s simply sad
You can’t live following any fixed rule
You gotta know don’t you?
You can never be prepared enough for the bad!

But I wake up each day
With yesterday’s despair left behind
I smile and I pray...to help me face each day
Its dreams, hopes and desires
With an open and strong mind!
