Again

You place yourself so calm
On your grey throne
Your fingers flipping pages
But they do it alone


You fix your gaze onto the stone arch
But what you really see
Are all your thoughts
Playing in front of you like a movie


Your head, it tilts and you see things in new light
You fix the puzzle and utter an 'aah'
Here I am, losing myself in your company
There, you've reached a destination so far


It's you who's closer to the fireplace
But to me, the warmth here, astounds
The flames get wilder in my heart
And with each beat, harder, it pounds

There you are, seated so calm
Warm...in a place so sound
Here I am, again, helpless and falling,
Losing myself in the love I once found


And I'd drift closer to grab your attention
Take a breath or two, from you
And give you more
Into this moment of intense, I'd lure you

I'd break the barriers,
share this rush with you, but how?
I wouldn't want to break
This placid moment you're in now.

Is it a sin?

We live in a world that talks of love
A world that can feel none
Sweet little words to utter
But nothing's sweet inside anyone


Here, if you feel love
They shall mock you
For here, love's unknown
If anyone feels...it's very few


Is it a sin that I see
A little beyond I'm shown?
Is it wrong to feel
And feel it alone?


How does the beauty of love die
If it is not returned?
Why should we taint its virginity
In striving for it to be earned?


Why can't love be given here
And cherished there?
Why not let it be simple
And let it remain fair?

Her Solace

Each time there was chaos
Filled on the outside
The thought of him
Always eased the tide


And escape she did, into his world
Untouched by the storm
Protected from this world so cold
His thoughts kept her warm


Each time, unfailingly
He made her smile
And amusing it is
He knew not all this while


And then she wrote a song and some more
For the man who's more than just her muse
And it amuses even more to see
To see the evident as truth, he'd refuse

When I'm Alone

Seated by the window
Under the calming moonlight
That soothing tune emerges
From the quiet in the night


And then, your face, it flashes
in front of my eyes, you know
It lights up my face
And causes the pupils to blow


A whiff of you, when I get
A whiff, I sense it fill up this space
Around, encircling me, I'm lost
Virtually, in your embrace


A spinning wave of an emotion
Resurrects from deep within
It surges to take control of me
It makes my head spin


To illustrate this feeling, I fail
This one that never goes dim
It echoes my heart's pound through my bones
It causes my eyes to brim

On Your Side

Let me just stay here
A little longer
For it feels warmer
Than outside, feels safer...


Let my head rest here
While I keep a busy ear
Counting your heart beat,
Let me stay, for this is sweet...


And when you open your eyes
Let me lose myself into them,
Lose myself to you,
Take me to your world.


And let me stay there
A little longer
For it feels warmer
Than the world outside, feels safer...


Because when I open my eyes,
Break this paradise
Of heart and mind, will resume a fight,
And I'll shut one up. Pack. Leave when the sky's light...

The Parallel Thought

You started with one, colonized an islet,
Then, conquered a bigger part and hastened that pound
You've climbed up too and made yourself
Comfortable in the thinking chamber


N now all I do is think
About the trees, the birds, the sun
About love, life and beauty
I think of you, I think of you


When I'm up, you're the first,
When I lay, you're the last,
And in between falling and waking,
And wakefulness until I fall


You play best friend to my thoughts
Keep them company
Even if they don't talk
You're by their side, you coexist


I tried to run, to hide myself
I tried to tame, to fool my self
I sighed, embraced, when all else failed
For you had conquered yet another part of me


But now all I do is think
About the trees, the birds, the sun
About love, life and beauty
I think of you, I think of you

Make Me

A storm outside and one
Building up here
Tonight, I wont let go


Trembling hands that move
In symphony
And hearts that tremble even more


Break into your arms, I will now
Make that rhythm count, while you
Mesh into me, won't you
Make me feel real


Breathe. I cannot breathe
A steady breath, while I am
Writhing in your world


See. I cannot see
A thing. It's hazy
It's all a blur


Break into your arms, I will now
Make that rhythm count, while you
Mesh into me, won't you
Make me feel real

Be

Shed all your pretence
Just be...won't you just be
Your skin below a skin you carry
The real, dont you feel?


Why run away from a thing
So chaste, your soul
Why deny? Why lie?
Why this guard, you hold


Why not embrace
What there is to believe
The truth in every lie
Why don't you see

Lullaby

I'd place love on those lips
Watch them curve into something beautiful
Just how it reaches your eyes,
I'd lose myself in this moment so magical


Float into a blissful reverie
As I sing you a lullaby
And may the beauty seep into every moment
when you open your eyes


I'd place love in your hands
So all you touch, turns into gold
And pray a happy wave flow in
And let more joy unfold


I'd place love in your arms
Where already it is so warm
What more could one ask
Than see their love so calm


I could die just now
I could die in your arms
No I couldn't die, not now
Why can't this moment last forever...


To see you float into a blissful reverie
Swim along this lullaby
May this beauty seep into every moment
when you open your eyes

In your arms

Your gaze, it is so deep
I could get lost, forget this world
Your smile, it is so sweet
And it's like a candle


Walls could be crumbling down
But in your arms, I'm steady
I'm steady
Hold me now


In my mind, a thunderstorm
But in my heart...steady
So steady
If you hold me now


Way up in the sky, they say there's heaven
And above the ground, there is one here


Hold me closer
Won't you hold longer
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let this go...


Walls could be crumbling down
But in your arms, I'm steady
I'm steady
Hold me now


In my mind, a thunderstorm
But in my heart...steady
So steady
If you hold me now

Stay

Forget for a moment, all you know
Forget all that you believe in
Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, stay with me


We'll watch the skies
Full of dreams
Of all that flies
Of paradise


We'll stay awake
Stay through the night
So wide awake
All through passing reveries


All of flesh and bones
Mesh in, mesh in
Into something pure
Won't you...


Forget for a moment, all you know
Forget all that you believe in
Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, stay with me


Forget for a moment, all you know
Forget all that you believe in
Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, lay with me


Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, stay with me


Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, lay with me


Just this moment, don't you go
Just this moment, pray with me

Can't fit in Words

Sometimes when you feel so strong
Words flow easy, like tears rolling down
While within, the heart pounds
Without, the pen runs


And I write a song to sing to you
And I write because I think of you
Do you know? How much I think of you
And I sing to you a silent song


For only my heart can sing
Words mean a lot. Don't mean a thing.
Come tear me apart but you wont see
Unite with my soul and you shall feel


It's not tangible that we define it
It's not a thing that you reduce it to
It's not something that ends
For it never did begin...it was there..always there


And maybe so, I feel so strong
Words flow easy, like tears rolling down
While within, the heart pounds
Without, the pen runs


Thus I write a song to sing to you
I write because I think of you
Do you know? How much I think of you
And I sing to you a silent song


But only my heart can sing
Words mean a lot. Don't mean a thing.
Come tear me apart but you wont see
Unite with my soul and you shall feel

Stop!

When you care but you care too much
It's not fragile, but you're too scared to touch
Over cautious you get with what you love
You taint it in the attempt of saving the dove


Stop, foolish heart, do not go berserk
Don't bother them so much, do not irk
Keep a safe distance, just let them be
Even from here, the beauty you can see


Don't find a reason, don't push, revel in the now
For this is blissful too, isn't it now?
Be the audience to the art, if you so wish
No need to go, intrude. Don't spoil the dish

A Beautiful Soul called You

Black, you're white
And everything in between too
Armed with the right
But wrong, too, you do

And still there's something 
awefully sweet about you
You're not unsurpassable
But you are YOU!

Anointed with conviction
You profess clarity
Often plummeted in contradictions
You're swimming in ambiguity

And still, it intrigues 
The fashion of your thoughts
Your mind makes beautiful patterns
Like an artist of sorts

He Calls. She Comes.

No tap on the shoulder
No sound to wake her
But it's time, she knows
With twinkling eyes, she rises slow

He casts a light by the pane
His call drives her insane
But hush, she must not make a sound
For if folks wake up, things might turn around

And then, she manages to position herself
By the window next to the dresser shelf
She looks up, lost in his light, meshing into this dream
As he smiles down on her casting his silver gleam

A love to be loved

It lay within this heart, so deep
It blossomed into a feeling so sweet
Attempts to impede it's run, but failed
And through the ebb and flood, peacefully, it sailed

Battles between the head and heart, like this one
Without gruesome spills, cannot be won
While one retires in reticence
The other rejoices the consequent occurrence

Stop me not, mighty winds
For it propels me to surge
Where the air is dense
And I can't breathe

It finds me what I seek
The rush of a plunge
The comfort after touchdown
It makes this heart go meek

Stop me not, imperious waves
For it lulls me now
Into the deepest of depths
Where I can't breathe

It finds me what I seek
A wave of rhythm to my beat
It floats me about, controlling me
It makes me weak

The Mindless Heart

It's so beautiful, this tune the heart sings
Oh, it's sweet but it stings
When you want something that isn't yours
But your want, it is a claim of sorts

These silly, insatiable cries
Of the unattainable, like pocketing the skies
Bull-headed like a child
You tread a route so wild

These butterflies that flutter by, must die. Must die.
But, through the changing winds, they still survive
Oh, just how do I serve you, my master?
Pray, don't impel me to cause a disaster.

Reste le Même

Quand tu souris
Il fais beau
Tu allumes une chambre
Comme un flambeau 

Soutien que tu as changé
Mais je sais bien que non!
Change tes vêtements, si tu veux,
Tu peux pas changer ton nom!

Il ferra toute calme,
Il ferra un grand orage
Reste le même,
Reste comme un sage

Tous iras changer
Mais toi? Bien que non!
Change tes vêtements, si tu veux
Ne change jamais ton nom!

Ladynight

Seated by the pane
Revelling the pouring rain
Caressed by soft breeze
A presence she feels

A shadow mulls from beneath
Blending into her feet
Gliding, trickling up her thigh
Weary, but not a sigh

Voices, a howl and a roar
A touch to leave her sore
A tremble, she feigns
Rooted cold, she remains

An Ocean of Thoughts

Every word spoken
And the unspoken too
Every breath you've taken
Has caused a ripple or two.

Every little ripple
Spawned a little wave.
Everywhere I hid from it
Turned out an open cave.

Stop a start, before it'd end,
Don't raise a hurricane,
Don't provoke my mind to bend,
It's only going to hail more pain.

In vain, however arduous a toil,
In vain, all the same.
A temper that'd spoil,
And thoughts I cannot tame.

You're lurking on the banks now,
Come nigh and then, a li'l afar,
You play at the edge, just how!
What if you hurt and cause a scar?

Float about if you may, but slow
It has laid serene, so calm here.
You're only by yourself, but oh!
Don't row and make ripples. It brings fear.

La Romance Lunaire

Je me sens plus spirituel aujourd'hui
Rends moi plein de ton énergie
Éclipse-toi à moi
Je reste ici...seule, avec toi

Il fait frais, il fait beau
Il cause l'élévation de l'eau
Quand tu est près
Quand intime, tu est

Ton aura de calme que tu porte en toi
C'est tous que je veux porter en moi
Je me sens plus spirituel aujourd'hui
Rends moi plein de ton énergie

The beginning of an end

Little child, so tender, so sweet
You've come into their lives
Bringing joy to them all
But what about you?

You're at the onset of a journey
To be tread alone
People you love will die
You'll grow to learn it's all a lie

This beginning they hail about
This journey they harp about
This life brings misery and pain
And ends with you rotting in vain

Look at you, little one in awe
Of lights and shadows that interest you
When you grow a little, little one
The haze shall clear and you shall see

All the shade and gleam
Will show you their true colours
Their ugly face will repulse you
The same shadows that once lured you
