Arranged marriage

They came,

And drank a cup of tea

With sugar coated snacks.

And after serious talks, 

They left with a smile;

And if the phone bells, 

Wedding bell is knocked.

And if phone never bells, 

New snacks are purchased. 

Hope from the jar

I was the one who left in jar, 

And attacked by darkness too. 

And I thought I will loose my temper, 

With the weary and masked friends. 

As a wedding gift I entered the planet, 

Along with the deadly habitants. 

And now I am left in this boredom,  

And perplexed with my companions, 

Thus was the beautiful bride too. 

Now my brutal friends rule the nation, 

As the amazing bride closed her jar 

Even before my departure

So the wedding plan got its victory. 

Her curiousity made them depart, 

And her anxiety made me shut here too. 

Now I am left alone in this jar, 

And the mankind is filled with darkness. 

My nature

When I am bad, 

Nothing is good. 

When I am still, 

Nothing is moving. 

When I am deaf, 

Nothing can be heard. 

When I am dumb, 

Nothing will be spoken. 

When I am blind, 

Nothing can be seen. 

The world which surrounds me, 

Depends upon my perception. 

When I am good, 

Nothing is bad. 

When I am moving, 

Nothing is still. 

When I can hear, 

Nothing makes me deaf. 

When I can speak, 

How can I be dumb? 

When I see, 

I am not blind too. 

I am the creator of, 

Heaven and hell. 

And you are creating 

Your heaven and hell too. 

Gradient Scale

I may not be the best, 

with your gradient scale. 

I may not be a diamond, 

with your gradient scale. 

I may not be beautiful, 

with your gradient scale. 

I may not be courteous, 

with your gradient scale.

But the gradient scale is a query 

As the scale is not from heaven, 

Nor from Parliament too.

Gradient scale is never the same, 

And thus is not perfect too. 

Dream catcher

It was hanging above my eyes, 

To fulfill my dreams.

But I closed my eyes,  

To catch them in my dreams, 

And thus they stay as dream too. 

It was hanging above my heart, 

And I lied with dreams on bed, 

And I lied to hear my heart, 

But it was hoping like a hart, 

who run behind dreams, 

And thus my dream is fulfilled. 

True companion

When you were in tears, 

I was weeping with you, 

But you never noticed me. 

When you were jovial, 

I too smiled heartily, 

But you never found it. 

When you were wounded, 

I was bleeding with you, 

But you never caressed me. 

When you were awarded, 

I was behind you, 

But you missed me. 

Now you lost your breath, 

And I am lying beside you. 

Now we can converse, 

About the tears and smiles, 

Which made you a memory. 

Now as your true companion;

I, the shadow, lie with you

And broods over you praises. 

Life roles

In the grounds of life;

Thou are a traveller, 

who visits and departs, 

with the birth and death. 

Thou are a guest, 

honoured and dishonoured, 

as you come and halts the departure.

Thou are a warrior, 

who fights and rest, 

with the needs.

Thou are a student, 

who learns and fails, 

with hurdles in the path.

Thou are a poet, 

who writes and tears, 

the pages of life.

In the grounds of life, 

thou play many roles, 

with the situations.
