Part of your life…..

Part of your life…..

The streets lined with houses,
Does it ring a bell for you,
Or is it that it needs reminder,
The lane that passes by each turn,
Didnt you tread that path more than once,
Each lamp on the way, glows for you,
Shines to make you see the beauty around,
Have you turned blind with open eyes,
Down the memory lane, we are walking,
That’s what you said and lead me here,
I am walking a million memories,
Each waving to get your glimpse,
Why ain’t you looking at them, I quiz,
One look at you, I know solve the riddle,
Yes I brought you here dear, you say
To feel the 'me', unknown to you,
To see my flight as a winged bird,
To feel my pain as wounded soldier,
Each path in my past, I want to trod again,
For then my life will have you at each turn,
Watch the memories that sing for you,
Dancing with glory just for you, my love
Not more could I hold back my tears,
Tears of joy, gracing my cheeks,
To be part of your life, was all I dreamt,
You made me your life, I can’t love more…

I didn’t know what to write

Three years have flown by,
Like the mist in the sky,
With little moisture in my eye,
I revisit my journey taken so far,
So far it has brought me from dreams,
Realities hitting hard as the minutes pass by,
I thought of flying high in the sky,
Now I wish to be on the grounds not so high,
To be away from home all on my own,
Liberty for all, freedom unlimited,
Is what I liked to believe then,
Not long ago it took to realize,
What matters is where my heart lies,
Not places far away, but back home,
Friends are many, promises numerous,
With each traversing his own path,
Running fast to catch with the fading era,
What promises, what matters is me, myself,
Do I stand a chance to win a heart or two,
Lonely still in a crowd of people,
Who are mistaken to be close, yet so far for me,
Lessons learnt are copious,
some good, some not so bad,
Life comes a full circle, I have heard,
Where am I on this circle, I wonder.
