Letter to a MovieStar...

from the time i saw you in the silver, 
i couldn't really focus on my job
every time i open my lappy
your face greets me on the desktop
and thats it... no work done
when i walks by the nature in eve
the water looks like your wavy hair
the sky is like your clear face
and i am unsure what
these hallucinations could end up in
its true i didn't believe in this
but destiny made me a believer
there is a vaccine for this virus
but as you know ...vaccines
are essentially virus themselves
so i am not sure if i am wrong in thinking
that i would receive a reply from you
but if you hum the words of a truth
you will surely send a message...
and thats the message i'm longing ,
will long for it even if takes long.....

Stains on my coat...

Traitor.... he has taken
lines from my lyric
-maybe i am mistaken-
but it feels so barbaric

to please the king of seas
he chose to betray his friend
how he could do all these
when i can see all these up-front?

and when the king pleased
finally offered him a deal
he couldn't be even dressed
to have the royal meal

meanest of all beings
did not think any more
as with all other things
took my coat and wore

when all the drama finished
what have i received?
the betrayal.. i may forget
but the stains on my coat????

The Painting on my Wall

The painting on my wall
even though very small
as pretty as they are
has caught every stare

People guess to know
what is all this show
even i could not explain
'coz i cant lie so plain

But wen i'm in despair
just one glance through there
would fill my hollow mind
with poems of all kind

Just like one u reading
with all my love brooding
what thing made this all
the painting on my wall

An Unknown Cadet...

He was found by the Adju's Office to be
One against whom there was no official complaint,
And all the feedbacks on his conduct agree
That, in the modern sense of an old-fashioned word, he was an OG,
For in everything he did he reffered the SOP,
Except for valentines day, the panga day..
He lived in a squadron and never became black sheep,
But satisfied his squadron office, Oscar Squadron.
Yet he wasn't a dope or "Lachit" in his deeds,
For his coursemates says that he never missed a BCC report,
(Our report on his course shows it was an evryday matter)
And our Special takecare group found
That he was popular with his coursemates and liked a treat.
The Drill saab convinced that he read the ET & Restriction list every day
And that his reactions when his Name was in it were normal in every way.
Punishments given in his name prove that he was fully engaged in afternoon,
And the sick report book shows he was once in MH, but left disgusted.
Both Kit Muster and Markings in punishment rigs confirm that
He was fully sensible to the advantages of managing things
And had everything necessary to the cadet,
Drill Boots, Rain Cape, Kelachandra to even an NDA cap.
Our researchs into his behavior are content
That he held the proper opinions for the time of the term;
When there was lassi, he was for lassi; when there was f***, he complied.
He was in 3rd term and had 2 understudies,
Which our study says was the right number for a 3rd termer of his time.
And the teachers report that he never interfered in class.
Was he free? Was he happy? The question is absurd:
Had anything been wrong, he certainly would have been stayback.

Hallucinations...

why... the trees are like this?
why... the skies are like this?
why... the grounds are like this?
why... the world is like this?
 
how could i see the ground over sky?
how could i see the root over shoot?
how could i see the hell over heaven?
how could i see my heel over head?
 
for all this to be...
something must go wrong
is that the gigantic universe?
or the fellow - Me?
 
i say im not wrong
im upright and its the world
which has gone up foot
in this world of sin - im the right man
 
the trees say, its their fault
the skies say, its their fault
the grounds say, its their fault
but i say, its other's fault
 
but now, theres sound from immortal
the trees, the skies, the grounds, the waters
all are upright and will go on as so
but its me who has changed and may change
 
suddenly the wind of light came
it has made the world----
No.... "Me" , upright
now the screen of pride has been moved by light
 
friends, its through self understanding
that you can be upright
and knowing the world is no more than
knowing self...

Poems... the song of my life...

when story of life's mimic
comes out as a lyric,
i can only wonder....
if it can cause a thunder!!

even if it fails the purpose...
this is what i propose...
that you can read my writings...
and i can kno ur feelings...

coz..


poems... as short as they may...
or as long as they stay...
fills up the mind of the reader...
and lightens the mind of the writer!!
