VALUE

Value yourself and your virtues too,
Your sacrifices and endurance too,
Your patience and perseverance too,
Your presence and priorities too,
Your compassion and comprehension too,
Your spoken words and hard-work too,
Your taken time and tide too,
Your plausible anger at the door step
And happiness offering flowers too.

Because,
The love inside you,
The pain beneath you,
The struggle behind you,
And the humility within you,

Are priceless for the world
Which is too short to shed tears
For the people like pebbles
And their existence like sands.

Faces will come
Faces will go
What will remain,
Are the memories in a row.

Where the eyes shall reminisce candour,
And moments of fresh odour,
Bestow me there, some good time,
As a beautiful flower to be cherished and adored...

From the beautiful lies ,
Told to entice the tender heart

From the silver-toned intrigues,
Played to manifest a miscreant

From the enshrouded empathy,
Made to bury the love inside.....

As for the mortal outside is just a nut end,
Whereas the soul still gets acted upon even after death....

feel,
the depth of being noticed,
the fervid of being heard,
the intensity of being valued,
the avid of being cared for,
the deep-rooted fear of losing..

And there the bud of love blossoms.....

They said, I never loved you,
And you believed them in no time !!!
How could you ?
My credence bawled my eyes out,
And it echoed with the answer,
Where my heart felt disdained,
As if for a while, dipped in doubt..

Yet unable to swallow the blows of deception,
I wondered if it was a whisper of delusion,
But seeing the guts of those lying eyes,
I cottoned on to the fact,
That possibly, it wasn't love,
But to love you, was my only crime.....

From where I stand,
Exploration and expansion,
Go hand in hand;
Where the wise wears humility,
The pioneer, covets vision.

Musing around the wonders,
As a sage in the sands of wisdom...

Whose poise put up the best part of dusk,

While the sun steps softly
Under the sleeves of amity

They unlatch the gate of all that lost,
Together promising the years of husk

a challenge that knocks my competence,
which is certainly taken as an opportunity, not to prove the faultfinding world but extracting the crispy delectation , while venturing the tunnels of blizzard perceptions....

Kya likhun tujhpe,
Tu zindagi ki woh kahani hai,
Jisse shayad hi kisiko bayaan kar sakun,
Yaa har koi uss tasneem ko samjhe,
Uska intzaar karun.

Khair, Par uski jarurat hi kya,
Jab dhoop se kuch jyada,
Baarish se kuch Kam,
Yaa phir yun kehlun,
Sardi ke chaadar mein lipte hue anginat gum,
Apne andar samaa kar
Phir ek subha tujhe dekhar
Muskura lun;

Ye tasali dete hue ,
Ki kuch cheezon kaa naa milnaa hi,
Umeedon kaa ek naya guldasta lata hai ...

not to be a mere visionary,
who would just make castles in the air ,
But to take the reins of illimitable wings ,
Enlightening the caves of dare.

And if I am to be honest more,
I would love to open the time served doors,
That still echoes the dramas and dews,
I came across on the edge of faith over fear.

Nevertheless, from the art of flying high,
And parting the clouds of cumbers,
Until I left the dome of despair,
I witnessed my vehemence
Of how I learnt, when no one was there...
