Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

Thing that makes your world go round,

Who would have thought?

It could give you pain so profound.


Blessed are those who have found it so true

Still makes you hope.

Still makes you ask for some more….


Your heart flutters and then it skips a beat

Feeling of ecstasy beyond

It is so hard to resist….


And yet it doesn’t take too long

For the bubble to burst

And all the melody is gone….


So short lived and yet so looked forward to

Crazy world running after it

What for? If only I knew…


You get hurt once,

You get hurt twice.

Hoping there is no next time.

Hoping you would be wise….


This resolution makes you going

Until you bump into this some one

You are back in the game

Even after knowing…

She!!!

Broken and defeated
Purpose of life lost
I met this old friend
Just a silhouette
Ghost of her old self.

She had had a difficult life
She had gone through a lot
She tried to smile
With unshed tears in her eyes.

I wish I could wipe away her hurt.
The way I could wipe away the dewdrop glistening on her skin
If there was a God, I wanted to say
“Spare her, please don’t give her anymore pain”.

The look in her eyes were distant
It almost felt like, she dint see or hear me.
Her cold hands holding my arms
Were they asking for strength?
Were they trying to tell me a story?

I could see her slipping into a deep abyss
And all I could do was stare and pray
No I wasn’t strong enough to say
“Give me all her worries, please let her stay”

After a while with her eyes dry
She looked at me with a wide smile
She said, “I hope you have life more rewarding”
A wish for me from a sad soul

I saw her get up and walk away
Her presence slipping away from me
All I could think was, “Will I see her again?”
Heard two months later that she was dead.

Battled Cancer till her last breath
The doctors said, “She was one tough nut”
“Full life she lived”, said everybody
Only I knew she wasn’t ready to leave.
