Untitled

From the heights of love
To its depths,
Bas tu hain...
Tu hii hain.

Aur tujhme kahi khoya
Hua main huu.


Aisi raat hain kii barsaat
Rukhne ka naam na le
Mein tanha hone par bhi
Tera hii naam luu.


Kaash
Tu aate hii
Meri zindagi tham jaaye
Aur tu jaane ka naam na le.

  
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In that sacred space
Between your quivering lips
And my yearning lips,
Love oscillates like a
Pendulum.


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Tears roll down my cheeks
Pausing for your lips
To pluck them
To their final resting home.


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

To Tara Ma
It's midnight but my love is
An infant,
Seeking Mother's milk
From Her vermilion red bosom.


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Woh jaa rahi hain,
Phir ek baar akele sone ke liye.
Hum jaa rahe hain,
Phir ek baar akele rone ke liye.


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Unhe hum kaise bataye,
Woh kaun hain,
Hamare liye.
Jaise rab se koi pooche
Kii woh kaun hain
Is jagat ke liye.


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you say so,
I'll sleep.
Deep.
In your love
Tossing about
On my waves of passion
On your stormy sea...


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Forgive my Malayalam, but here it goes anyway:
"Yende snehathinde adhir aanu nee!"  


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yeh dhadkan yeh aahat
Pe machle
Kii, kahi tu na aaye
Bin bataaye.


Yeh machle
Kii, kahi tu na aaye
Aur, phir yeh kabhi
Sambhal na paaye!


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I listen to each sound that's yet to become a word from you.  

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You are every damn, beautiful adjective they have used to address a woman... Damn, inside I am dancing!  

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Am waiting for the good, old fresh burger at Jus Trufs. Thinking if only one could order love like this: fresh and hot. Waiting for it to arrive.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You smile. And this world shall be earth again.

There is a woman of and in my dreams, in my imagination, who loves me like a deewani... I will live with her.

You have given me memories from where I can weave magic. From where I can weave my fantasies and in a world beyond right and wrong, at this very moment, we're making love in the midst of a thousand-petalled lotus... Embraced in an intercourse that never ends like Shiva and Shakti... 

That's what life, creation, and spirituality is: Union.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Let me float. In that universe where humans no more exist as human beings. Where they've understood, and more importantly known, that they're just electric vibrations pulsating with love...

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

For a very punctual and "ahead-of-time" man, I always arrive late in life.  

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Like you said, am a free bird.
And you're the tree of life.


The bird wants to perch on your branches for a while,
To chirp and sing a song...
But if the tree's unwilling, the bird will fly.
 

Soaring and gliding, it'll keep circling the tree
Alone.


From above.
 

But with an eye on its tree
Below.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Love's a matter of largesse.
Some get excess; I get a trickle.
But my cup's overflowing! 


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Can I multiply infinity by infinity and maybe then tell you how much I love you?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


Love is such an illusory and fleeting word for what I feel. Now, I can't ever love anybody.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Zindagi se kuch milna nahin hain, kuch haasil karna nahin hain, sirf paana hain.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

According to me, life is not black and white. Everything's grey. And grey is not a color but a process. 

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
