Winds of change

Sometimes life leaves you dumbstruck

Violating your very core..

Pushing you hard and far

Unyielding, Cruel and Selfish

Into something you didn't want to know

Something you didn't ask for

As you recover gasping for breath 

You realize that its all you have now 

And then you try to love it.. living every minute 

Like it belonged to you.. 

And then you wake again 

Just to realize that even this will not last 

Through the back door
Uninvited, pain walks in..

Helpless, Shattered, Undone

There she stands in distress

Reaching out into the dark she walks ahead
Fighting an empty heart and drained spirit 
All you can do is Follow...

Fellow beings rest your worries and your fears

For there is little you can do but accept

The changes that tear you away

From everything that has made you what you are...
From everything that you hold dear...
From everything that has any meaning in life...

No Answers!!!

Wish I had time, to stop and think..
About the life that I have left behind

Creases in my jeans they seem
Now that they are fading away, sealed in time

Through the window I look down
At the city that gave it all

Music, love, friends and freedom
Even this saga had to end...

Pulled from under my feet
Abrupt is my World , my Love , my City

Move on they say, Blend in
Be one of them, Why hesitate

With a heart that has stopped listening to me,
Feelings alien to all around me...

I embark on this journey half heartedly
To the land of Unknown
To a world that I no longer understand

For there are never answers
To questions that cannot be asked..

Living a tale

It’s amazing how one day it all seems futile…

Run as fast as you can, there is no escape
Death if your born, Sorrow if your glad

What am I chasing... I know no more.. And yet I run
Faster than the rest... Towards what I always had

And in this rat race, no one is wiser than the other
Trapped in this vicious cycle, they scream out loud

Sweat beads running down their forehead
Pushing and pulling at each other in disappointment

Blinded by their own stream of thoughts, Ascend they do
Into a world that knows not them nor their destiny

And knowing all we keep ourselves amused this way
With the tale we lovingly call LIFE

Memories lost in time

Another night... lost in the rhythm of raindrops...

I drift away to a time that was, to happiness that was frighteningly all mine

At the doorway, smiling he stood, trembling I reach out to touch him

My heart skips a beat yet again as I realize he is gone...

Why did he walk into my life, only to leave me miserable and lonely in the end

Restless I roll over in my bed hoping to find him beside me...
Cradling me as I wept into his arms...

How i wish just this once, to go back in time

To change that fateful day when it all slipped away

I lay there counting minutes and then hours for someone long gone

Into my pillow I weep, For memories lost in time

For years spend in thoughts that were not mine

Take me away for I can take no more, Broken promises haunt me for ever

Pain is all I have to call my own... And I wish... I had never fallen in love..
