For the Friend that You are

Dear You...

Take my hand and travel with me
I would like to go to the moon with you
Dance to the tune of raindrops
Touch the golden sky...

Steal my glance and see through my eyes
I wanna catch those glitters scattered in the stars
Chase after the dragon flies to my heart's desire
Fly through the nightingle's croon...

You must be thinking what I'm upto this time. Just singing my own tune and be lost.. isn't it nice to get lost in one's own dreams? When it comes to my dreams, you know it means "us". Think of the house we'll make home together. Dreams live their own lives...

"What's sweet to you - honey, sugar?"
"No, her lips"
"And what's soft?"
"Her hands"
Sweeter is her smile
Softer is her heart...

Okay, your apple is the sweetest of all. No doubt about it. But dear friend of mine, you need to treasure your dreams. And your apple too. After all, sweet things sometimes come to your threshold and ring your doorbell. Don't leave the hand alone and let the smile fade. As a friend I confide in you.

A Dirty Scar

This is about a girl I know. A simpleton at heart, her honesty shines brighter than the sun. And her heart purer than gold. She met a guy, fell in love and life started singing a beautiful note, untill it took an ugly turn...

She loves the sky. Maybe that's why there're stars twinkling in her eyes. She loves the color of the rainbow. She believes, true colors never fail to shine. Her heart dances to the tune of raindrops. There are dreams in her eyes, dreams that she knows she can let come true. What makes her look so beautiful? Her honesty. After all, it earned her some of the best jewels as her friends. She's sincere with her friends. She treasures her friendship. She thinks beautiful, that's how life is beautiful.

Then she met him. She had a new dream. Everytime he came in to her mind, the world around her seemed lovely. Love gave her a totally different meaning. He's so caring. He understands her problems. Feelings he shares with her are so full of life. Sometimes she thinks she'll go crazy, she can't handle so much love. Does he feel the same way?

The sun seems to shine bright and high, unaffected and unemotional to the feelings studded mortals. It's 3.30 in the afternoon. Gosh I can't read any more in this scorching heat. Who can bear it? But I don't mind a little evesdropping...

He: "Give me some idea man. I've already spent enough"
Friend: "Beta you have to spend something if you are lookin' for something"
He: "Arrange a room for me yaar"
Friend: "Monday ko mera room le le. I can give you that. After you, I'll also make a try if possible..."
He: "But I don't think she'll agree"
Friend: "She considers me as a good friend and trusts me a lot. I don't think she'll mind"
"And start keeping condom with you now :-)
you can need it anytime"
He: "Okay"
Friend: "Is this her first time as well?"
He: "No, she is experienced"
Friend: "Aren't you gonna do everything with her if you got the chance?"
He: "Of course"
Friend: "So don't worry just make her excited and then see what she can do to you
She will she will rock you!!!"

All this while, she was busy dreaming about him. His simplicity made her fall for him. His honest confessions about love sound so true! She still dreams, worships his love, being totally unaware of his evil intentions. And of her friend's ugly instincts.

Friends, don't you think she deserves a better guy? And a far better friend? What should be the punishment for betrayal of friendship? What about love? Will anyone teach those guys a lesson on relationship? Or maybe teaching is a far cry. I believe in God. In honesty of feelings. WHAT GOES FROM YOU COMES BACK TO YOU ONE DAY. Right now, I'm rushing to the girl. Honesty prevails and true colors never fail to shine. I must tell her this.

For a Sunny Heart

(It's dinner time now, but I'v something else in my mind...or rather someone)

Let Me Love You in My Own Ways


Let me love you in my own ways
If I promise you a handful of stars
Will you gift me your starry gaze?
'Coz my happiness is secured
In the mysterious laughter of your eyes.

If I bind all the colours of spring
Together in one silhouetted sheet
Will you then offer me a smile?
'Coz my life starts smiling only
Through those honeydewed lips.

If I ask you to spread the sky
Will you come to me with your open arms?
'Coz that's where I sleep peacefully.

Come to me. Hold me up by your arms
Let me feel the sweetness of life
Cornered tidily in your eyes.
Let me enjoy the moonlit night
Folded carefully in your arms.
Let me stop for a moment
And say hi to life by touching your lips.
Let me reborn and rejoice once again
Let me love you in my own ways.

To You...With Love

Dear "You"

Raindrops already started pouring. Along came the sweet breeze. Smells wonderful in the air. Is that you? Must be you! I can feel the red heat on my cheeks. I'm blushing again. Are you staring at me, standing in the middle of the lost crowd? I still can't find your face anywhere. But I know your eyes are watching me close. Eyes that can see through me, piercing me down my heart. So what's the plan for today? Going for the last show? Riding long and high for a cup of coffee? Killing time at McD? Or hovering over paneer paranthas? BUt you know my choice. You can't win over it. My favourite bus stop. Morning walks have got a different meaning for us. Only I know how much you enjoy riding round the circle. Or rather helping me ride it! Oh, your endless excuses to get close to me!! Don't you get tired of repeating the same words? So do I. Those golden words. Rain pours better when you're with me. Even the stars shine brighter. With you, life seems like a beautiful dream, never to come to an end...only if dreams have a life...

Hey you know that I love you more. So why try to win the fight in vain? Do you want apple? 24 hours is not enough. Wish we had more than that in a day! We could have more dreams, senseless arguments and endless sweet nothings!!! Do you want apple??

It's raining again. I'm missing you terribly. Stars will shine bright every night. Movies will run forever. Coffee shops and McDs will never stop. Theb dark half-lit road will always go round. Bus stop will stand tall. Life wil go on. But I won't be there with you. Some love stories don't have a beginning. Nor an end. They live forever. Through sweet memories. Life-like dreams. Don't worry honey, I'll keep our love alive in my heart. My memories, my dreams. No matter stars shine bright or not, raindrops tickle or not, dreams come true or not, you'll be safe in my heart. Now and ever. I love you my sugar.

Love. "Me"

Are You Lovers or Just Friends?

You two are best of buddies. You share every emotional tinge of your feelings with him/her - laughter, tears, anger, humor, happiness, sorrows. In every possible way, you share a much comfortable and candid relationship with your friend. With time, friendship grows freely and fully. With every single moment, your relationship deepens and feelings take a new turn. Over a period of time, you tend to ask yourself - is it just friendship or something beyond? You tend to develop feelings beyond friendship. Maybe you'll end up together. But this is what you feel. You are still unaware of your friend's feelings. You want to express your deepest feelings but at the same time you're scared of losing your long-harvested friendship. What if s/he retracts? Are you confused? Not yet ready to take the bold step? Think again about your feelings. Ask yourself the following questions.

1. Is your friend constantly in your mind throughout the day and night?
2. Do you wish to see him/her every single minute?
3. Is s/he the first person you want to share your thoughts whenever you're happy or sad?
4. Does his/her thought remind you of all the good things around you?
5. Do you dream of spending your life with that person?
6. Do you enjoy his/her company the most?
7. What do you feel when you see him/her with another companion? You go green with jealousy?
8. What if that person chooses a different companion to stay with forever? Can you live with it?
9. Do you feel on top of seventh heaven when s/he gives you utmost importance among other friends around?
10. Can you imagine life without him/her?

Ask your heart for the answers. Remember, your heart will never disappoint you. Now go ahead woth your heart. Take that bold step once and for all. Friendship or love, life is beautiful both ways!

About a Thing Called "Crush"

"Who's your crush?" - the question comes with its own charm. Suddenly, there's a soft breeze in the air. A sweet smile appears on your lips even at the very thought of him. Your blush never seems to fade whenever you see him look at your eyes. His one swift stare is quick enough to make butterflies hastily crowd within. Deep in your heartland, emotions start dancing, with twinkle in your eyes, that pink tinge on your cheeks and the inevitable smile on your lips. At least this is what I feel whenever I see my crush cross by. I feel something. Something like love !!

I see him everyday. Sometimes, busy handling client relations. Exhausted with heavy workload. Sipping a cup of coffee with his absent-minded attitude. Arguing over the phone. Hooked into his ever ringing cell phone. Or sometimes, struggling with the poor canteen food. But he never fails to give me that swift glance. Maybe he knows about it. He can see through me?? Oh no !!! I would rather be game for those stealing glances, the quick ones.

Having crushes is a healthy way of chasing away your stress!! I came to realise it after my tiny-miny trysts with my crushes!! It's a quick relief from your mundanity. Now I enjoy my office hours. My busy work schedule is no more hectic. I always sleep sound now. I know my daydreams don't make much sense. But they do magic sometimes. Is it so? I won't tell you how. Try this stressbuster. And do comment on it. Please let me know your experience too !!
