Aadha Chaand

Half a moon, removes
the darkness
from a cold dark night

People praise the full moon
but I have my half
to myself...

I could sit here
and cry for the other
half... crave for the full

But not tonight.
Tonight, the light
of half keeps me bright...

Without the half
I would just be
a cold dark night...

Come here

Come here
And let me love you
With my eyes closed
And my arms open

Come here
And shrug off your worries
Let me pour some kisses
On your parched lips

Come here
And let me hold you
Within my heart and soul
While the world slips by

Come here
And lose your senses
Because the tangles shall disappear
Within my hair and face

Come here
And become mine
While I give myself to you
In our hidden embraces...

Inside Outburst

Sadness comes from nowhere...
Which window did i leave open?
Which door was left ajar?
The room I filled constantly with vacuum,
What cracked its strengthened walls?

Moist droplets stream down
the cheeks, that heeded no repair...
Where were these sobs hiding?
Why unbid would they pound on me?
What words would soothe their chars?

This unseen, unfelt, unknown pain,
how did they seep my cobbled veins?
How could they break into my chest?
What got them entrenched this far?

I try to push with all my might,
but where the push should start?
Enveloped with a gagging hand,
my eyes are smarting
And wailing is my heart...

And yet it clenches its fist around
Wrenching my guts, cracking my spine...
I twist and turn, I curl and burn
How would I find the will to fight?
How will I know, when end's in sight?

Despair's the word
that's screaming now.
Scrambling pulls at hope's strings
has worked no more than lifeless dreams...
I dive-in in an endless sea
I see no shore to take my hand...
