PERHAPS NOT - -

Everyone is alone in this world,
the relations have their own
way of recovery, what's
today you've given
me, the return
gift's desire,
could you
forget,
perhaps not, the life's reality is -
bitter, the art of exchange
exists in everyone's
heart, I do not
know the
depth
of your affinity, however, the - - -
dreaming somewhere
fills the cavity of
desperation,
and again
the life
runs behind the mirage of the self-
conceit!

BEFORE THE DAYBREAK - -

Someone has the time or not for the
changing of calender's page but
the seasons do not wait for
anybody, it moves on
as usual with the
mood of winds,
the new
edges
are
formed and the old are covered in - -
the sand, the lifestream flows
forever, though the game
of hiding and seek
goes on under
the shadow
of clouds,
some -
times the rainbows are very nearer - -
and sometimes it breaks with
multiangle alike the dream
of early morning, we
have to search
the droplet
of dew
in
the soft petals of the rose, before the -
sunrise, that's the way of life - -

UNTOUCHED POINT - -

The apathy of season and the
turning point of memory
lane, believe me,
you're still
exist
in
my feelings as usual as a form
of pre-monsoon clouds,
emerging gradually
in my dormant
emotions,
though
blue
hills are in the faraway southern
end, but your mystic affinity
has damped my persona
deeper and deeper,
emotion want
to fly in
the
mist of mysterious land of your -
love, my soul desires to get
liberation from all the
delusion of this
elusive world,
though I
know,
this isn't so easy path for the - -
endless journey - -
