Am falling so deep I want a way out....
I hate this deafening wail that keeps following me around..
I can't breathe....I choke...
There again!! Did you hear that?? Again.....another piece broke!
Come out.....You're killing me inside..
Am a wreck....this is unbearable...
Didn't know I'd have to pay a price for being true
I will now...I have to..

'Impossibilities...'
You ask me to move on and leave everything behind
To forget whatever happened and turn new inside...,That's impossible!!!
Am not doubting you...but I laugh like Sarah did
Guess she too like me looked at you and then her own inabilities...
To laugh and not cry?To forget this world and just leave??
But then.... You are the God of Impossibilities
It's easy to hide a wound deep inside?? Should be..coz it's your own secret world
The keys to which only you have a hold .....
But you're asking me now to bring it all out,to lay it out in the open,
no questions,no answers,no doubts....
A wound left bare to be worked on??A wound left for all to see??
Well but then.....You are the God of Impossibilities...
They say the war has ended,the battle has been won
The victory parade has found a new way and is marching on
Why am I being choked then from the smoke that rises up behind?
Why do I feel numbness all over?Why do tears roll down my eyes?
But you're asking me not to change at the end of this war..
Not to remember?Not to feel? not to be Guilty?
But Then again...You are the God of Impossibilities....
I guess I've had enough now and so i'll stop my questioning
What's the point after all coz theres nothing left to win..
Here's what I have to give you after all i've said above
I'm done with struggling over...these feelings,emotions,and Love
But You ask me to Go on and fill in again all that is empty..
To fill them again when I am broken?To hide their ugliness behind their false beauty?
But Then I realize....You are the God of Impossibilities.....
To forget whatever happened and turn new inside...,That's impossible!!!
Am not doubting you...but I laugh like Sarah did
Guess she too like me looked at you and then her own inabilities...
To laugh and not cry?To forget this world and just leave??
But then.... You are the God of Impossibilities

'Silence'
The Silence before and after the Storm continues,
Somehow the Storm does too
Conversations of this silent movie are playing in my head
But soon The Silence will silence them too
Am being Strangulated with a chord of words,
Numb and cold I let the Silence shriek....
Soon you'll gaze into my eyes and question this Silence..
and then....I'll let the Silence speak....
Somehow the Storm does too

'Love'
A Hug,A Kiss,A Laugh,A Smile
A Touch,A Flower,A Moment,A Child
A Memory,A Picture,A Gift,A Cuddle
A Conversation,A Journey,A Bright colour,A Couple
A Walk,A Letter,A Card,A Poem
A Feeling,An Expression,An Emotion,A Freedom
Love may be this and much more for you....
For me It's...
The Pain,The Tears,The Spit,The Thorns,
The Whips,The Mockery,The Nails,The Scorn
The Lot,The Vinegar,The Gall,The Shouts,
The Hill,The Sinner,The Earthquake,The Blackout
The Betrayal,The Fall,The Cross,The End of Law,
The Grace,The Mercy,The Forgiveness,The Freedom
An Acceptance,A Saviour,A Father,An Eternal Kingdom
Unconditional,Neverchanging,Complete and Free...
Now that's what I call LOVE....That JESUS would Die just for ME!!

Waiting....for my niece....
Am waiting to hear the chuckle that will follow my laughter
Am waiting to take our special walks together
Am waiting to answer your weird little questions
Am waiting to pour out all my love and affection
Am waiting to see your toothless smile
Am waiting to sing endlessly your favourite lullaby
Am waiting to see the bright sparkle in your eyes
Am waiting to run around and chase pretty butterflies
Am waiting to get lost in your made up stories
Am waiting to learn your simple life theories
Am waiting to get lost in your little arms
Am waiting to be used as your firearm
Am waiting coz the Good Lord has asked me to
He's shaping and forming and making you
Watching me wait HE chooses to smile
Coz in HIS perfect timing..You'll be here...The most awaited child!!

'Awaaz'
Awaazo se hoon ghira hua
In main ek meri bhi hain
Jo pukarti hain tujhko Prabhu
Koi aur ab mera na hain
Is Duniya ne mujhe pehchaana nahi
Bheed main bhi hoon akela
Dard chupa kar hasta hoon
par aasoon tu dekhe mera
Koi na jaane mujhe
Bas ek tu hi hain mera
Awaaz meri ab sun le prabhu
Ye Das bus ab hain tera....
In main ek meri bhi hain
Jo pukarti hain tujhko Prabhu
Koi aur ab mera na hain
Is Duniya ne mujhe pehchaana nahi
Bheed main bhi hoon akela
Dard chupa kar hasta hoon
par aasoon tu dekhe mera
Koi na jaane mujhe
Bas ek tu hi hain mera
Awaaz meri ab sun le prabhu
Ye Das bus ab hain tera....

'Mary in Martha's World'
Another day and another morning breaks
Bringing with it another bundle of chores
I get up and pray,"Lord how many more?
Do days like these,do I have to endure?"
Clothes to be washed and children to be fed
Seeing off to work the husband I have wed
A home to be cleaned and beds to be made
Food to be cooked and on the table laid
"Work just doesn't seem to get over", I grumble
"I never have time for myself", I continue to mumble
Just then am surprised at what I see
It's my reflection in the mirror staring back at me
Why does it seem like someone else standing there?
We're kind of similiar but still a mismatched pair.
"What's all the confusion about?", she asks
"Don't all the other women do the same tasks?
Do you remember this sunday your promise to the Lord
To spend more time with Him and His word?
How many sundays have gone by like this
But He's still waiting ,counting days without a miss
You've created a world which is so fast
You're so caught up in work,you've lost track...Alas!"
"God knows my heart!" I cry back aloud,
"I've missed so much I have no doubt
O Lord forgive me for keeping you at bay
I should have been at your feet,listening to whatever you say
I've been a true Martha in Martha's world
Lord make me the 'Mary' who's hungry for your word
I know it's going to be tough for me, But Lord I plead
Because you said to Martha,There's only one thing you need..
Let me too choose Like Mary what is better
So that I may sit at your feet..... forever....."

'The Bench'
We just sit here and watch the world go by,
The hustle,the bustle,the crowd nearby..
Feels like so many stories just walking around...
Some old rusted paperbacks,some neat leather hardbound.
We laugh and cry and talk and sigh,
We wouldn't care less if a star passed by...
There's so much to tell and so much to share
sometimes with words and sometimes just a silent affair..
Life has a way of getting back at us
And now i stare at the bench...empty..from the bus
I see you and me there,throwing back our heads in laughter
Discussing our lives and its different questions and answers
I can't help but stop and walk across
The bench embraces me and away fades the chaos
It's you,me and the laughter again.....everything comes alive
This is so real!! just can't be a film running from the Archives!!
Then just as sudden as it happened...I'm left alone
The bench and me and the world unknown
The sky opens up and am glad it's raining
Easy to hide these tearsand a heart thats aching
The Bench and me..we miss you being here
But I know we'll get together soon and not over several years
And just pickup with ease from where we left last
But till then i sit here...alone on our bench..reliving the past....

'Sometimes..'
Sometimes you don't need wide open spaces to run free
Sometimes you just want the silences to speak
Sometimes you need to breakdown to stand up again,
Sometimes all you need is tears to let go the pain...
Sometimes you need to gaze at the sky to realize you are so small,
Sometimes a baby's hand in yours will make you feel so tall..
Sometimes you need a goodbye to bridge the distance
Sometimes all you need to forget the past is just an instance....
Sometimes you need to give yourself a second chance
Sometimes somethings are worth another glance
Sometimes just a little touch can speak volumes
Sometimes it's better to have asked than to have assumed...
And then Sometime when you'll start wondering...
.....that time is standing still
Don't worry....with TIME....
Everything will heal...

'Miss u'
Feels kinda strange...maybe like a knot
Like you're pulling a string but it keeps getting caught.
The air around seems to be so grey
All the bright colours are off on a holiday!
I think I'll wash away this feeling so blue..
So I let this tear fall and hope that you're back soon
To help me paint pictures anew
As for now......
The knot,The air,The colour,The tear.....
And ME......
....are gonna miss U..!

'us'
Sunny afternoon and the two of us
U walk down and I take the Bus
Old memories and German words
Lunch is Chicken Strognoff and pasta with herbs
Frivolous chatter from the ladies nearby
We laugh to ourselves and let time fly...
Walk down to the bookstore to brouse around
On our way watch a reckless driver break some ground
Looked around but didn't get what I wanted
Instead was laughed at for being short heighted
Well we both wish by now to doze off to sleep
But you've got a job as of now to keep
So we walk back now,the two of us..

'The Ceiling'
Spaces,silences,shapes on the ceiling,
Don't mean a thing till you give them wings and feelings
Let them fly with Thoughts and Dreams,
Paint pictures,let Characters scream!
Lie there and hold on to the strings..
Weave magical stories,You're the King!!!
Dress up as you like..
You've got shadows changing style
Liven the stage....Go On!! Entertain!!
Set Alive the stage with characters so fragile
Imagine! Dream!.....Dig a little deep and you'll find..
It's worth painting the ceiling
With stuff that's on your mind....

Siski...
Siski lene se pehle tu jaanta hain
Aur rota mere aasuwoh ke saath
Jab dil ka tutha hai koi tukda
Tu thamtha hain mera haath
Kaandhe pe sir rakh ke mera
bhar leta aaghosh main apni
Duniya na kabhi ise samjhegi
Par main jaanta hoon masih
Siski leta hoon main
Par aasoon tera girta kahin......
Aur rota mere aasuwoh ke saath
Jab dil ka tutha hai koi tukda
Tu thamtha hain mera haath
Kaandhe pe sir rakh ke mera
bhar leta aaghosh main apni
Duniya na kabhi ise samjhegi
Par main jaanta hoon masih
Siski leta hoon main
Par aasoon tera girta kahin......
A New ME
Stare away! I'm unrecognizable
Broken away from things irreconcilable
My cast has changed , I've been moulded anew
I'm changing into something new
Shattered dreams,an achin heart
Hurt that tore my soul apart
Surrendered all and now I am free
Am changing into a new me
Lord,You are the change
You've set me free
Humbled by your Grace, O Lord,
You've made me a NEW ME....
Broken away from things irreconcilable

'My Space'
Emptiness welcomes me home
I open the windows and the breeze flows
as usual they make good company
and leave me afresh
Staring out I wonder,"why don't i get lost too?"
The hustle,the bustle,the crowds,the craze,
Why do I have to return everyday to this familiar space??
I know these walls,they're crude and white
But they glow for me when i step inside
the ceiling opens up the sky and smiles
as i paint pictures on it for a while..
The windows open up the vibrant stage
and slowly the stories unveil...
The crowd may envelope me
But I still am alone
The hustle may engulf me
but I still groan alone
So I'd rather just share all my emptiness here
Because no matter what.....just like the others
These walls too wouldn't care!!!

Rain Inside
Teary eyed I look
seems like the world around fades
Grey skies and i can smell rain
Alas! it's rain inside.....
Must I take this road again?
Must I always have to loose?
I guess I forgot coz when i look down
My feet are in Gypsy shoes!
How much can I hold?
Oh! How can I all this remember?
But i know there'll be days
when i'll just have to think
and everything will just fall back together
The curtains will unfold
and the play will begin
Familiar faces and familiar scenes
I'll walk through those roads i've left behind
but now i'll have an audience where once it was I...
So I leave as I flip
another page of my Life
Whatever it may be
Wherever it will end
You.....My Memories...
are just on the other side........

'Ji Lenge hum....

jinhone bana diya tha humko paraya
un shabdo ko apna bana kar
ek ajnabi si zindagi ji lenge hum
Tumhare jaane ko ek sapna samaj kar
aankhen khol kar sona seekh lenge hum
Bus ab ji lenge hum......
Woh do pal ki baaton ko
zindagi bhar ka saaz bana kar ji lenge hum
apne saare gum
un do lamho ki khushi main bhula denge hum

'The Seal'
Lord can i keep this feeling and not let it go
Am sure it'll work out,lets see how it goes
It's hard to give up the life that i long
It's hard to give up and just move on
Oh Lord!, I feel empty and broken inside
It's been such a long roller coaster ride
My emotions are not complete like yours
I always think different behind closed doors
I feel emotions and say they're complex
Coz being simple i can't complete this rat race
Alas I finally realize......
you gave me a heart to love and feel
But the envelope for me
Has come with a SEAL.....!!!

ek jhoot
ek andhera
ek unchi deewar
Door se lage sachai
dur se lage ye prakash
Dur se lage ye deewar hain
Bus mere soch ka ek ohzaar
Khoobsurat jahaan,Khoobsurat baatein
Khoobsurat tum aur main
Khoobsurati main kho gaya
mera ateet aur main
Jab jaaga to paya ye pyaar nahi
bus hain jazbaaton ka khel
Akhir kabhi ho paya hain kya
Andhere aur prakash ka mel...??

Zid..
Kuch baaton main zid nahi chalti
unhe dua se zinda rakhte hain
is diye ki roshni kam na ho
asoon ke tel se jala ke rakhte hain
zid tho thi chand ki
taaro se kya karna
par afsos....intezar main umeed ne taaro se dosti karli
Kehte hain kuch baaton main zid nahi chalti
Phir bhi kaagaz ki kashti ko samandar main chalate hain......

Sawaal Jawaab....
Logo ko humne kabhi samjha nahi
jaise doobta hain suraj
chale jaate hain sabhi
pakad ke main rakhoon
par ab nahin
meri muthi main reth rehti nahin
phir kyun ye suraj?
kyun ye roshni?
Badalta mausam kyun?
Saath tho kabhi koi deta nahi..
Tho phir ye sawaal jawaab kyun....??

Pretenders...
Lying in bed,looking at the ceiling above
The world just fades away
and it's just the space between us
Varied thoughts...cross my mind
I'm amused at how much i can hold on inside
Pretenders are we and we try real hard
Don't agree but we'll say let it pass..
Feelings don't matter,it's more of what we expect
It's more like keeping your heart at unrest
Ruffle it the wrong way and pull it on all sides
You want it to fade away but you also want it to last....
Like the leaf which is exposed with it's veins showing clear
You want it to show but still want to be known
as 'the leaf' and not the veins..
How myriad are the thoughts which cross my mind..
When here below the cieling I lie.......

Nothing at all...
When I am alone,you're by my side
When I break down ,you soothe me inside
When darkness surrounds,I feel your light
Lord,I'm nothing at all in your sight..
When I am troubled,I feel your grace
When I am in doubt,I seek your face
When I'm gripped with fear,I feel your might
Lord I'm nothing at all in your sight
Lord what have I done to deserve you
Lord what have I done to deserve you
I have no words to describe your love
Lord what have I done to deserve you..
When I break down ,you soothe me inside
When darkness surrounds,I feel your light
Lord,I'm nothing at all in your sight..
When I am troubled,I feel your grace
When I am in doubt,I seek your face
When I'm gripped with fear,I feel your might
Lord I'm nothing at all in your sight
Lord what have I done to deserve you
Lord what have I done to deserve you
I have no words to describe your love
Lord what have I done to deserve you..
Journey...
Didn't know where I was going
or where I was headed to
I did not have the answer
nor did I have any clue
Life was one long journey
and i was travelling all alone
with no one in this whole wide world
who i could call my own..
I was carrying a load of guilt and sin
of sorrows and tears and heartache within
I had hardened my heart
and wasn't willing to share
even though the burden was heavy beyond compare
I thought i could make it on my own
even though there was no strength left in my bones
I thought God didn't have time to listen to my prayers
Either he was too busy or he just didn't care
But then i saw someone,walking beside me
And i asked myself,"who could this be?"
He too carried something,i couldn't clearly see
and when i looked at him
He smiled at me...
"Give me your burden of sorrows and tears
Aren't you tired carrying them all these years?"
"But sir,"I said,"Your burden is great..
How can you carry mine in this state?"
He stopped and lovingly said to me
"I've come all the way just for thee"
I was filled with gladness
and my joy knew no bounds
The friend i was looking for atlast had been found
And then i saw his burden clearly..
It was THE CROSS on which he had died for ME..
"How can i ever thank you
O Lord Divine?
for taking my burdens
and making me THINE..."
