The cup of destiny

In all the even and the odds,
There stays a word more powerful than your imagination,
It’s in the stars, slowly reaching out for you,

When I raised the glass and kept it high, I saw it half filled,
Life is like the glass I held, half empty or sometimes half filled,
But what matters in the end is how it belongs to me,

Soon when the pain begin,
Never think you’re someone who'll sink,
No matter how hard you try to drown,
You will always float in the waves surround,

Life is a river that keeps you flowing,
No matter how tough the journey you've been,
Once you realize you are at the end,
It is worth celebrating out of all the bends,

What is written for you will come to you no matter what,
Even if few pages of the life are turned or torn,
Leave it on the power that is most high,
Sometimes, it's better to have faith rather than a gloomy sky.

Time Flies!

I thought to hold my palm tight, 

But don't know when the time flied,

It was yesterday, I was playing with my pink doll,

But don't know when other things managed to replace my thoughts in all,

Either destiny has its own plan, 

Or God knows when and how you demand,

Sometimes you need to let it fly,

And see how perfectly Lord held you high!

When I close my eyes and pray to thee,

I can feel the glory working around me,

Nothing works more mystical that time,

A hope of blissful life surrounds with all the signs.

When the dreams turn out to be true,

And you live them with your point of view,

Wait until the dawn to sprinkle happiness on you,

Sometimes life is more than a fairy tale for few.

Flickering Life

When you're having a bad time, 
You have an option,
You can complain ,gripe and dwell on the misery, 
Or you can let go of it and look forward to the incomplete journey, 
and maybe, just maybe, even laugh about it. 

If life would be as simple as thoughts,
Everyone would draw a beautiful picture,
How would someone will define happiness then?
Would you consider life to be so precious?

If life would be a straight road,
And hurdles won't let you stop,
How would you relate yourself to the obstacles in between?
Would you rise with a glory after you fall?

I have discovered life is so unpredictable,
You won't have an idea when its changed,
So never plan it and let it flow as its arranged.

Always hope for the better to come forward to,
Even the dark clouds around and you feel blue.
Hold on your horses, something glorious is in-stored for you.
Its never too late to live happily ever after, that's the only truth.

Contented

I grew in a middle class family, yet I feel so rich,

May be because of the love of my family,

Or maybe I had dreams, without any glitch.

People around me were running for monetary gain,

But yet I felt money couldn't buy me my single dream,

Maybe because, I invested in priceless dreams,

Or maybe because, my dreams were far more expensive what it seems.

Relations were never treated less than a gold dime,

That's what I have been taught all the time.

Even after endless war, this world finds no satisfaction,

But the truth is that, war brings nothing but only destruction.

Satisfy your heart with things that you have got,

Few people are not even close to what you have or what you have not,

Uncertain decision makes you cripple at an extent,

Life is a cycle which goes around and comes around in the end.

Miracle of Lord

I lost all hopes and was shattered almost,
I thought you left me in the middle of the road,
Why to whom I love the most?
This was the only question coming and goes,

Then I decide to stand up and ask,
Pray in silence and cry real hard,
I felt so helpless as if tied hands,
But then God heard me whatever I demand,

I asked thee not to harm him even for a second,
He said I am the Lord, Fear not, I Am,
I said show me the miracles you used to show in Israel,
He said, your faith will bring everything again,

I said, why this test was for me and my family,
He said, I will never let you be lonely,
I am thankful to Lord for every prayer answered,
Lord said, you don’t have an idea where I have put your standards.

Friends

Do you remember the first friend you had?

The class filled with lots of nerds and tots.

Few of them were having dripping nose.

And few of them were laughing on silly jokes.

Each one was special as if one nation big,

Fighting for each other’s pencil like a pig,

To be on teacher’s favorite student was on the check list,

Even if it takes to battle with rival whosoever exist.

In the bunch of weird thoughts, their exists one best friend,

To whom you endlessly shelter and defend.

Life seem to be a swirl of fun with them,

Only stress was to find my lost coin.

Time was in abundance to plan a next day,

What to play tomorrow and what not to play today.

Fighting with my buddy was one of the pastimes,

Forgetting the reason next day and sing our favorite nursery rhyme.

A Friend in need is a friend in deed was taught,

But doing every deed together was more what we’ve learn I thought,

What is jealousy was easily understood,

When somebody calls your best friend, his best friend, Oh how he could!

Friend is what makes you realize life ahead,

Few of them leave and few of them continue instead,

No matter how sad you are, they make you real happy,

Friends are truly a relation without any price tags.

Time goes by and people get older,

Where everyone forgets how beautiful friend’s shoulder,

Where you learnt to stem all the relations in the world,

When, let’s be friends were more than a sentence that occurred.

Amazing World

There's a place, far-far away,

Where I imagined being with my soul mate.

A place where emotions can be seen,

A place where life seems to be no mean,

A place where there is no sorrow,

A place where there is no wait for tomorrow,

A place where night comes with a glow of heaven,

A place where sound of trouble can't be imagined,

A place where love is precious treasure,

A place where no one jealous for sure,

A place where there’s no second thought for help,

A place where simple thoughts gel,

Where I have my own world surrounded,

Where flowers bloom and love around it,

Where people are not selfish clowns,

Where humanity never drown,

Where smile cashes everything to eat,

Where no one fight and never cheat,

Where anger stay few minutes on the nose,

And never comes back when it goes.

I need to make this place a reality,

Let me do it my way,

Nobody will ever understand,

Until I find that promised land.

Castle in the Air

I was having a smile on my face, to dazzle around without a trace,

I know nothing about this world, but I know something about it all above,

It’s not just a dream I saw, it was more then thousand splendid stars,

Where clouds were cotton balls below my feet, where flowers were sparkling indeed.

Where moon was closer then I ever seen before,

Where angels were walking in obscure,

I was astound to see all this,

But can’t really help it,

Suddenly when I turn around,

And went in the valley I found,

I found a missing piece of my heart there and nobody was protecting it, oh dear!

I ran to catch it before it disappear, 

But soon when I went close, it was nothing clear,

I was sad to an extent, to cry real hard,

Just then there was light and my eyes gaze in bizarre,

I saw someone coming close to me in the light,

And I was clueless, what's going tonight?

He stopped and asked me to fly with him,

And just then I woke up on my alarm ring. L

Makeover for Life

Life is too short to think twice,

Live it simple and simply wild,

Life don't have an extra corners to look back in your past,

Break those chains of sorrow and celebrate until Sun shining last.

Give life a whole new makeover,

Give a Smile to others that wouldn't cost you either,

Pamper yourself as the most amazing person on this earth,

Believe that you are not worthless but priceless from all other.

Get yourself a lover, who loves you like a kid,

Who takes your care in troubles and bring you to a life that you have never lived,

Sprinkle happiness around, it grows like a seed,

See the tree of life grows with blessings that you couldn’t recede.

Life ends when you are short of dreams,

So never let them end until you win,

Cherish everyone since Life is uncertain,

And you might not have time to think again and again.

Juvenile Emotions

When I was a child, everything seems to be cakewalk,

Knowing nothing about the world, having lots of friends to talk,

When I was a child, my mother used to wipe my tears if I fall,

Suddenly forgetting the reason even if it was big or teeny-weeny small,

When I was a child, I know nothing about this cruel world,

Winning everyone's heart with a smile that was more than a sparkle.

When I was a child, there were no differences in caste or creed,

Rich and poor were all the same with no one ever supersede,

When I was a child, Choosing between A toy car and 100 bucks was simple,

Where money was nothing more than few shilling coins and piece of paper,

When I was a child colors were beautiful in sky and in sea,

But now things have changed without an ecstasy.

I need the child back in me, surely I do,

Laughing and giggling around with nothing more to do,

I need the child back in me to face this world more abundantly,

Where there are dimensions to my thoughts exceptionally.

I need that Child back in me, who wishes from the falling star,

Having an innocent smile and a hope to make this world real bizarre.

Obsolete Connections

Was I supposed to know a thing about my destiny?

Crawling on my feet to rise like a bright shining star,

Was I supposed to know where my life was taking me?

Surrendering to the obnoxious world I never known so far,

Was I really wanted to grasp the things I lost?

Never realizing it’s true worth.

Was I not speechless to the mistakes I’ve done?

No matter how I reflect them to the people around.

I got a chance to prove my real worth and I suddenly failed to show what I was,

Somewhere my soul was shaken speechless to the words I’ve spoken without a pause.

I lost million people in life,

I never wanted to do so,

But provided with the choices I had,

I could not pretend to be someone else though,

Even if it was hurting me inside,

I could barely do anything for it,

I was proclaiming myself to regain the soul I lost,

But nothing could bring the time back that has gone unwrapping itself, I admit,

I was raving to myself for having no control over the situations,

But only silence was left after all the misconceptions.

I know I have done something that is not easy to forget,

But I know, no grudges are bigger than the friendship we had,

Still I smile looking back the time we had,

Laughing without a reason or finding a reason to suggest.

People were clowns to us as we pass around,

And figuring out you too have got the same thoughts that I found,

Somewhere my subconscious mind tells me you too want the same,

And that’s when I hope to meet you again.

I would be happy to meet all the people I lost some day,

Without looking back the reason that made us miles apart our ways.

Someone for You (Valentines Special)

At the back of your mind you have a picture of someone,

Someone to hold your hand,

Someone to makes you understand,

Someone to guide you right,

Someone to make your day bright,

Someone to cry on your shoulder,

Someone to wipe your tears like no other,

Someone to give you a smile,

Someone to fight with you for a while,

Someone to bring clouds at your door,

Someone to tickle you until you fall on the floor,

Someone who knows what's in your mind,

Someone who cancels all his appointments aligned,

Someone who actually treats you like a princess,

Someone who think you are precious,

Someone who makes your life complete,

Someone who thinks without you he is incomplete,

Someone whom you care for the most,

Someone whom you can’t afford to lose,

Someone who jumps in your mind while you're working,

Someone you simply can't deny you’re in love with, 

 

Somewhere, someday if you meet that special person,

Realize his worth and make him yours in this season.

Happy Valentines Day!

Time of your Life

You might have old bad habits, you might have old relation disaster,

This is the time you can change to a New chapter.

You always wanted to figure yourself out, you always wanted to get the shining cloud,

This is the time you can change to a Brightening Day out loud.

You thought to be someone special at times, you believed you might have the spark in you,

This is the time of you can show the world that yes you have it in you.

You patiently wait for your chance to come, you always wanted to achieve the best one

This is the time you can change to arouse the gleam you should.

You had a pinch of hatred for someone, you never wanted to forgive the deeds that he has done,

This is the time you can change to forgive and entangle old marks of burn.

You wanted to bring a smile to your family but don't have an idea how to do it,

This is the time you can make something delicious without cooking habits to bring a smile to their face.

You know things are not in the correct directions still you are forcing them in opposite directions,

This is the time you should let them flow exactly where they want to.

 It all starts with the Time of your Life, the time where you don't have an idea when it ends,

just let your best comes out this New Year with your family and friends.

A girl next door

An angel whispers her ears when she was in a deep dream, 

as if she has been a special child of God.

She has that Innocent smile, crazy dreams, sparkling eyes and power to rule the world.

Some people said, she is just a girl next door, 

few said she is queen, 

But the one whom she was waiting for was just in her dreams. 

She was fascinated yet she was subtle, 

She was hilarious yet she has simplicity, 

She had a dream yet it was incomplete. 

While she waits for her life to transform, 

She has that fire to stop any storm.

She always treated life like a goody bag and 

In return life gave her bunch of laughter's without any price tags.

She was like a kid playing in the sun and loving her life as it comes,

She used to sing like a Rockstar with guitar in her hands, 

Wishing to face the world that’s grooving in her concert band.

All her prayers were answered like a blink of an eye as if she has been blessed to brighten each life.

Sorrow was not a word meant for this girl,

Rather to her life was more than a sparkle.

May be this girl is somewhere in You,

Hoping to simply express her happiness to pursue.

A walk to Remember

I was walking down the lane, 

Hardly knowing what's so extreme. 

I was astonished to look people around, 

Who were busy in something or the other in Cape town. 

Some were smiling like a crescent moon 

And some were just sad like a bridge in afternoon. 

Cute kids were playing in the ground, 

Giggling and bubbling as if a fairy go round. 

Just after few steps more, 

A river flowing deep in tone, 

It made me stop for a while and asked me how much emotions I compile, 

I was speechless as if someone tongue-tied, 

Like wishing to overflow all the pain I had inside. 

No one could see the sadness I had, 

But nature was keeping me going glad. 

Life is just the same as the lane I was walking, sometimes steep and sometimes broadly talking.

Hopes

When darkness clench you tight and sorrows by your side,

Never give up your hopes.

When fancy lights seem bold and tears roll from eyes to deep inside your soul,

Never give up your hopes.

When world shuts all the door and dear ones treats abhor,

Never give up your hopes.

When relations deprive its sweetness and your heart carve for that completeness,

Never give up your hopes.

When lot of doubts keeps you stimulating and decisions come so fading,

Never give up your hopes.

When true friend is what you desire but the one that you have has backfired,

Never give up your hopes.

When world seem not a place to live and misery around, you can’t forgive,

Never give up your hopes.

When challenges are impossible but you are trying as far as possible,

Never give up your hopes.

When your luck is not in favor and your hard work is the only savor,

Never give up your hopes.

When dreams are shattered completely and grievance can’t be avoided briefly,

Never give up your hopes.

When smile is all you needed and don’t know how to proceed it,

Never Ever give up your hopes.

Solitary Girl

On a boulevard of dreams, 
There was a stream to redeem a smile on her face.

She was clad with a pain that can't be seen without looking deep inside her vein.

Where is the smile she always had like a bright sunshine? 
Maybe it's time or tide that snatches her life without any fine deadline.

Life is so cruel on her, she never thought this ever before, 
But now as she gazes in her life she is left with nothing else the trouble she bore. 
Countless time the desires of her heart have kept her to move on in bad times, 
But today her heart is weeping to reclaim the sound of those eternal chimes.
She was lonely and sad since she has lost her everything,
 And when she looks back, 
She smiles and forgets her sorrows that cling.
 There was a time she had a family of her own, 
But today it's just those memories she has all alone.
She was shattered in the dark gloom of life,
Yet the silence was consoling her quite.  
Life can be rude sometimes, 
But living it with a ray of hope can clear all grime.
She has a hope to meet her happiness again,
And that is when she gets a smile therein.
