Coffee ?

There was a day when all was fine, all was good
The day's long gone and these eyes have seen several more sunsets after that
Yet last night as I drifted off into a dreamless sleep, I knew today was going to be different
Call it intuition, call it hope. Call it wishful thinking

Today dawned just fine and I woke up to a great start
The coffee didn't seem bitter nor was the toast burnt
In fact the day was so good, there wasn't even a roach in the food today

People were smiling and even the flowers were in full bloom
I walked into work with a list of thngs to do and things to get done
I checked my mail and stretched my hands just as you called

I'm sure you can hear me smile over the phone
Something inside me stirred and the warmth seemed to spread
It was clear that I like you and I didn't wish to hide what was true

"Coffee?", you said. I'd already had my share but how can I deny
A coffee with you means spending time with you
I said yes and grabbed my mug

You walked into my cube and smiled at me
I smiled back but that smile was fake compared to the smile of my heart
We talked of nothing important, of nothing show stopping
But I remember the way your eyes moved as you spoke
The way your hands made gestures
The way your lips curved when you smiled

Back in my cube now, I work on 'em test cases
But every now and then when I take a breather
I look at my coffee mug and think of you
Another cup of coffee I may not need
But some time with you ? Hell, I'm definitely game :)

A ray

I wish it was this easy to map out our paths

I wish it was this easy to define one’s destiny

But life is a surprise Life is a shocker

Life can’t be defined completely even if you were life’s stalker

I’ve introspected I’ve observed

I tried to find the flower after I found the weed

But, the Gods always seem to have a good laugh with each surprised face of mine

Every time I’ve found a rose or a thorn or even a piece of rotten twine

I’m never bored of these days

Each day with a new face

Lots of people in a very small space

This life of mine, I’ve found true solace

Untitled!!

There are unspoken words
And incomplete deeds
Unsung songs darling,
The unsown seeds
Caught in this despair,
My heart, it fears
Loneliness in your absence
Even though you're so near
I yearn for the fairytale
I wish for the dream
Trapped in reality, though
My heart, in silence, it screams
This isn't a question
Of right or wrong
This isn't inspiration
For a new song
My mind wants to do
What is obviously right
My heart though it wants
Only what feels right
All is not what it seems
All is not right
Some thoughts are hidden for fear,
Some to avoid a fight
My yesterdays are shady
Even bordered on the dark
But now tomorrow seems vague as well
There's no light, not even a spark

HATE

When smiles become tears
When trust becomes betrayal
When hope becomes fear
When elation becomes depression
When expectation becomes denial
When life becomes unreal
When distance becomes an issue
When sacrifice becomes a necessity
When words become bridges
When emotions become silent
When prayers become selfish
LOVE becomes HATE

WORDS

Words were said
With love and care
Yet you thought they were
Rude and unfair

Words were said
To soothe and heal
Yet I don't understand
How you feel

Words were said
To make you smile
I haven't seen one
Though its been a while

Words were said
To set things right
Seems life they've failed
Coz we're still in a fight

Words were said
And words were meant
And now all I have
Are memories of time we've spent

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Words may mean nothing now
Words may seem strange somehow
Words can hurt and words can heal
Words are the best way to say how you feel
Words maybe whispers and words may be loud
Would could be to one or to a whole big crowd

HURT

The look in your eyes
The smile on your face
The kiss on my cheek
Your tight embrace

The rush, the heat
Were all there that day
Though we knew we were going
Separate ways

I wanted to hold you
To hold on forever
The love I had
I knew was forever

Yet I let go
And waved good bye
Turned away too
Didn't want you to seem me cry

And now the nights are lonely
And the days are long
There is no love
Just sadness in my song

The look in your eyes
The smile on your face
The kiss on my cheek
Your tight embrace

The rush, the heat
Were all there that day
Though we knew we were going
Separate ways

I wanted to hold you
To hold on forever
The love I have
I knew was forever

Yet I let go
And smiled and waved good-bye
I turned away soon
Didn't want you to see me cry

Now the nights are lonely
And the days are long
There is no love
Just sadness in my song

Untitled

My poems are incomplete
So are my thoughts
The constant game of push-n-pull
Is draining me
The trust is gone
Where it was taken for granted
The cut is deep
And the wound still fresh
To be caught between
The cyclone and the drought
To be stuck between
Smiles and tears
To be paralyzed
By love and hate
To be torn between
Your heart and faith
In this wretched world
I wish i cud serve my term faster
I wish it wouldn't get worse
I wish it would be over soon
I'm lost and drained and tired
I wish I could sleep in the softness of the clouds
Wish i cud be revived by the waters
Wish I cud be loved and trusted once more
Wish I could live yet again

Untitled

This never ending saga of pain
Has torn not just my heart
But has ripped apart my world
And my faith in all things good
You left me to rot
Without turning back once
And now I lie
In this valley of hurt and misery
And as i laid motionless
For what felt like ages
Waiting to be swallowed,
I saw a glimpse of light

Jst some stuff i though of when in stats class

. What happens when u feel left out?
Do u try real hard to fit in and look even more pathetic or do you just give up ?
. When life takes u up its rocky cliff and u have no say, do you try to find your way through,your
way back or do you push the limits or simply throw yourself off the cliff?
. When you meet the perfect someone and take a chance, do you want to rush into spontaneity
or do you want tot plan everything so u don't screw up ?
. Are words enough to make up for the lack of emotions?
Can a "sorry, its over" ever compensate for the tears, for the pain, for the guilt, for the love??
. You meet Mr.right. and take a chance.You open up and reveal all, show your weaker side. He
makes you feel alright for once in ur life and then walks out. Then what ? should you take another
chance?
. What do you do when you know ur acting weird and immature but can't stop coz then it'l look even more weird
. Would you fall down on purpose just to see if someone'll come pick u up ?
. You raise your voice to make a point. But one look into their eyes u forgot wat u have to say
. Would u let urself get walked over just so u can stay by their side?

Look no further

I am the smile u c
when ur heart feels lighter
I am the words u speak
when ur thoughts guide u through
I am the voice u hear
When ur in trouble
I am the tears u cry
when ur heart feels heavy
I am the yesterday that was
With all its worries and sorrows
I am the today that is
the never ending saga
I just wish I could be your tomorrow
I'l give my life just to get you through

For comfort

I look all around
In search but in vain
For a place to call home
To get over this pain
I lost my way
When led by my heart
The emotions were too strong
Yet we are apart
My cries are loud
Yet you are not here
Or maybe you are
Though nowhere near
I sleep away the days
To get over the pain
Every waking moment without you
I spend in vain
An eternity I've waited
Yet you aren't here now
I need your arms round me
Someway,Somehow
Kiss me now
And take away these tears
Hold me close
And drive away my fears
Take me into your arms
And comfort me
Make me smile
And smile for me
I don't wanna be lost
And sure as hell don't wanna loose you
Lets just be together
Hope dats not an issue :D
