It was no fault of mine

The naughtiness

In her eyes

The confidence

In her voice

The elegance in her

Walk

Must have captured

Many hearts

Many minds

If I was floored

By her beauty

It was 

No fault of mine

The grace on her face

The captivating smile

Must have made

Many people sigh

If I fell for her

It was 

No fault of mine

Her charm

Must have attracted

Many before

Her soft voice

Must have been

Lilting 

Music to many ears

Many 

Must have prayed

 To be near her  

If I 

Lost myself to her

It was 

No fault of mine

It was 

No fault of mine

Every sunrise

Every sunrise

Increases

My determination

To do

What I could not do

So far

Motivates me

To search

New opportunities

Explore

New possibilities

Every sunset

Makes me

To introspect

Find reasons of

My failure

Not to repeat

The mistakes

In future

My heart smiles

Be it

The dark fiery night

The cool evening

The sun lit day

Or the

Smiling dawn

An unknown fear

Creates ripples

In my

Heart and mind

It’s only

When I see her

I am overjoyed

My heart smiles

My mind

Is in total peace

A Man without a Woman

A Man

Without

A Woman

Is like a body

Without a soul

A life without

A purpose

A game without

Fun

A story without

 An end

A song without

Any rhyme

Music without

Melody

A book without

Readers

A temple without

A deity

A life without

Any charm

My heart cries

My heart throbs

On seeing

Beautiful faces

But it throbs more

On seeing

Carefree

Playing children

Merry making

Old people

Physically

Handicapped

Persons

Laughing 

Flying birds

Colorful flowers

Flowing rivers

Gushing waterfalls

Sky touching

High mountains

Twinkling stars

But

My heart cries

Every pleasant thing

Looks worthless

On seeing

People crying

Because of hunger

People behaving like

Wild animals

Oppression

Of the weak

By the powerful

The lust for money

The inhumanity

In the humans

Who else can love me as much as you do

I cannot resist

Opening my arms

To embrace you

When you approach me

With a mesmerizing smile

I cannot refuse

To hold your hand

In my hand

When your delicate fingers

Touch my hand

I cannot desist

To drown in your

Blue eyes

When you look into

My eyes

I cannot cease

To wait for you

For endless hours

Thinking

Who else can love me?

As much as you do

Life can be made Interesting

The little boy

Heard me cribbing

Life is very dull

Without any fun

Came near me

Looked into my eyes

Smiled for a while

And said to me

Why do you say this?

Look at me

Life is full of fun for me

I play a lot

Go to school daily

Run with the butterflies

Watch the fishes

Swim in the stream

Enjoy the birds flying

Eat when I am hungry

Sleep when tired

Do not compete

With anybody

Do not worry about

Tomorrow

Enjoy every day

With the same spirit

The little boy ran away

Without listening to me

Made it easier for me

To understand

How life can be made

Interesting

A home is a home

Away from home

Staying

In a luxurious hotel

In a beautiful city

I enjoyed the day

Saw new places

Ate good food

The weather was

Excellent

People were nice

At the end of the day

Heard lilting music

Had a sumptuous dinner

It was time to relax

Feeling sleepy

I plunged myself

On the big, cozy bed

Every now then

I kept awaking

Losing my sleep

Simply wondering

What was lacking

Somehow

The morning arrived

I packed my baggage

Took a flight

To my city

Reached my home

Feeling tired

Straightaway

Went to sleep

On the small bed

Of my small bed room

Slept for few hours

Got up refreshed

I knew the answer

Of my sound sleep

No matter

However small

With or Without

Luxuries

A home is a home

The curse of beauty

Beauty at times

Becomes

A matter of ego 

A curse 

For the beautiful

A reason to envy

An eye sore

For many

Who are?

Less beautiful

An object of lust 

For the naughty 

Roving eye

Increases the lust

Of the Satan’s

Amongst humans

A reason to worry

For the near dear ones

Makes life

Mean and jaded

At times

So shy and fearful

One becomes

One is left with

No other choice

Except to hide it

Behind the walls of

 A veil

Friendship is like a bird

Friendship

Is like a bird

Trust is the body

The feathers are friends

New feathers keep

Coming

Many keep shedding

Old friends turn into

Body parts

Leave the world

Only with death

More the warmth

More the trust

Colorful it looks

Sweetly it chirps

Together in a flock

They dance and rock

It was a dream still is a dream

I saw her on the way

She looked

An angel’s image

My heart beats increased

The eyes

Remained wide open

My feet refused to move

Is she from the earth?

Or from the heaven

The question thronged

My mind

To my utter surprise

She smiled

And waved at me

Startled with her

Captivating beauty

Instead of replying

Like a dumb fool

I kept looking at her

By the time

I realized

What she meant

Leaving me in lurch

She was no where

To be seen

It was a dream

Still is a dream

Which I want to see

Every day every night

It was raining,It was pouring

It was raining

When I saw her

It was pouring

When I met her

The moment her eyes

Met with mine

I drowned

In the depth of her eyes

Her beauty

Mesmerized my mind

Her grace

Powered my heart

Love buds

Started blooming

From every

Nick and corner of

My soul

She captivated me

To the extent

I became a helpless guy

I left myself to her mercy

Now she was the master

I was the slave

Whatever she did

Was acceptable to me

Without any hue and cry

The rain was drenching

The dry earth

She was drenching me

With her love

It was raining

It was pouring

Sleepless night

This night

Is no different

From many

I have seen in the past

Same agony

Same tossing in the bed

Churning of memories

Restlessness

Looking at the clock

Again and again

Whether

 I switch on the TV

Hear some music

Try to read a book

Nothing makes me

Comfortable

Helplessly

I keep on waiting for the

Morning sun to rise

By now I know

Why this is happening

The moment

Somebody took her name

In the evening

I knew today’s night

Is going to be a

Sleepless night

Why I should not write

Writing

Is my passion

Writing is my life  

Writing is my hobby

Writing makes me

Happy

Writing keeps me

 Stress free

Writing wins me

New friends

Writing is

 Food for thought

For me

Writing makes me

Look forward

Writing makes me

Learn from

My mistakes

Writing revives

My memories

Writing

 Makes others happy

Writing increases

My knowledge

Writing keeps me

Away from gossip

Writing keeps me busy

Does not allow

The devil to

Enter my mind

Writing encourages me

To think positive

Writing makes me

Understand life

Whatever one may say

I do not see any reason

Why I should not

Write

Live life to its fullest

When my mind says

When my mind says

Unlike the others

I have many problems

My conscience intervenes

Since I do not know

Other’s problems

How I can say this

My mind thinks

Then replies

But my problems are

More than other’s

My conscience asks

How do I know about this?

My mind replies

I feel so

My conscience answers

Just because I feel

Is it right to say

My problems are more

Than others

My mind doesn’t answer

Just keeps mum

To what my conscience

Asked my mind

Look unpleasant

I looked at the moon

I looked at the moon

Prayed to him

Give me your coolness

Give me your light

Give me your love

Give me your power

To smile in dark night

The moon smiled

Then replied

My son

I shall give you

Everything you desire

Just promise

One little thing

Spread it

To the people around

Teach them to give

Before they ask

Somebody

To give some thing
