Joy and sorrow

Who does not laugh?

Who does not cry?

Joy and sorrow

Are in Every body’s life

Who does not hope?

Whose hope

Are always fulfilled

Who does not fear death?

Still new hope

Takes birth in the mind

Everybody keeps

On living

My heart is a caged bird

My heart is a caged bird

Legs tied by the bond of

Relationships

Wings clipped by

Responsibilities

Crying in agony

Writhing with pain

Wants to fly

In the open skies

Leave every memory

Behind

Feel the heat of sun

Cool breeze on the body

Sing freely

Like the flowing water

Cross the oceans

Conquer the Mountains

Break the shackles of

Worldly rules

Live freely thereafter

You may forget me I can never

If you think

By going away far away

From my eyes

You will descend down

From my heart

I will forget you

You are mistaken

I have forgotten myself

For you

I do not remember

Anything except you

My heart beats for you

Your name is written on

 Every breath I take

You may forget me

I can never 

I have lived for you

I shall keep living for you

You like it or not

I shall love you

Now tell me

How can I forget you?

I want my friends to stay with me

I do not want friends

Coming and going

Likes waves

Touching the shore

Returning back to

Mingle with the ocean

Leaving me

With a broken heart

And a depressed mind

I want my friends

To stay with me

In thick and thin

Rule my heart and mind

Expect

The same from me

We may meet or not

May not be together

In moments of

Happiness and gloom

They should not

Forget me

I should not forget

Them

Maybe we live far

Away

But never forget

Each other

That Moment

She was my

Childhood friend

Together

We had an

Emotional bond

She could not do

Without me

I could not do

Without her

During the holidays

Before the school was

About to reopen

I was playing

In the nearby field

When I saw her

Sitting in a moving bus

Her face saddened

Tears flowing

She waved at me

She looked like

A caged bird

Ready to fly

But there was no sky

Before I could reply

The bus had moved

Leaving me

Shocked and Startled

Later I came to know

Her parents had moved

To another city

After so many years

Whenever I pass

The spot

Where I had

Last seen her

My legs stop

Shooting pain

Arises in the heart

My mind stops working

Till somebody reminds me

To move from there

I cannot forget

That moment

When I last saw her

Always haunts me

It’s a Sunday morning

Birds out of their nests

Flowers blooming large

Many friends still in bed

Having a good rest

No hustling bustling

In the streets

Children

In color uniforms

Missing from the roads

Metro and buses

Sighing in relief

Mummies trying hard

To get their young ones

Out of the beds

They react by saying

Mamma let me sleep

It’s a Sunday morning

A friend is a friend

A friend is a friend,
Out of sight
Is never out of my mind
My dear friends
You all are embedded

Deep in my heart
Your love and concern
Makes me to do
All good
What I am able to do
It warns me not to sway
From the path of
Karma and dishonesty
Make me smile
At times
I do not interact with you
Simply because I know
You understand
My love and affection
My integrity
You can never get
Angry with me
Unknowingly I get busy
In caring new friends
Try to bring them
In my family of friends
In a way
Make them all
Your friend too
