TRAIL OF LIES

I was in the dark n shouting loud
when I hear your voice in a casual crowd
with a tongue of black
which truth just lack
with the floor just shook n' followed a crack..

I just tried to make my foot on way
All I need's some strength I dare to say
to bear such a dreadful night
to quench my thirst with a "SHINING DAY"

Shining day
yes I dare to say
I want a shining day
Can't I live my way..


I then watched you in the narrow street
With your head on his lap on a brownish seat
I just fell from the highest height
With anger being poured down through eyes..

Then I smashed my pitiable unrequited face
Coz, I didn't do wrong in our SHARED  case

Now I just hate of being an optimistic fool
who crushed his dreams for a lady so cruel
Though she stole my heart with her glaring eyes
Still i don't want a trail of lies

I can live my life as a lonely one
With days like nights in-spite of sun
A body devoid of heart n' soul
But i can surely learn to crawl...

yes i can learn to crawl

yes i can learn to crawl

Yes i'll crawl
even i'll fall
With betrayed soul
still i'll crawl..

Yes i'll crawl
even i'll fall
With betrayed soul
still i'll crawl..

Teachers - My Mentor

Many teachers entered my life 
But like you no one I cherish 
Many of them held my hand in worse 
But you're the one responsible for me to flourish... 

My redemption in badminton 
Was only possible because of you 
I don't know why you paid so much heed on me 
When I myself never thought I can too do.... 

I always felt of playing for fun 
But you taught me how to 'win' 
If you were not be there to guide me 
I would be just like an aeroplane without a fin.. 

Your teachings,lessons and diligence 
Can't be paid through any appreciating word 
Statements like 'Thank You' and kind-hearted quotes 
Are just felt cheap and kind of absurd.. 

I wish I could do wonders through that sport 
So that somewhere you would have felt proud 
But Sir, I won't forget you and your hard-work on me 
Till the day my face is completely covered with a shroud.... 

On this precious and auspicious occasion 
I and every 'true student of a teacher' just pray.. 
May God give you an eternal age and glory 
So that even my grand grandson can say you 'HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY'

With 'YOU'....

With you I enjoy my suffocating mediocrity, 
With you I love me and my impulsive stupidity.. 
With you I can resist those evil temptations, 
With you I fail to reciprocate other's attention.. 

Maybe I'd be the one in an endless queue, 
All of us waiting and wanting you 
Some can even give you another heart, 
Some can fly you through those beautiful stars.... 

I don't think I do afford that all 
But I'm sure I'll always catch you fall 
I even won't make you fly through stars 
I fear if moon just keep you as one of his star.. 

Changes would be enormous when you'd be with me 
Starting with the one I badly want you to see, 
Right now my destiny is monitoring my life 
With you I can write by my own with full rights.. 

Every page of that book will start with you 
Ending with the line I'm still in love with you.. 
Middle part would be the things we have done, 
Accompanying with carefree and frivolous fun.. 

So would you be mine in this life so small 
So that I can enjoy even with it's challenging falls 
I won't ever lie and make you cry 
Please say 'yes' and atleast give me a try..

THE DAYS WITHOUT ME

Finally my funeral was completed with flowers 
Some days were passed with she crying night and day, 
'Why can't she move on and live her life? 
Why can't she just forget me and stay..' 

I wish I can hold her hand 
I wish I can wipe her tears 
All I'm now is a helpless soul 
Just waiting her to recover from fears.. 

My heart's still thumping at a furious speed 
That I myself felt to cry and weep 
I don't think I can bear this pain 
All I want my loving baby to sleep... 

Still she's crying and weeping so loud 
Rage is in my eyes,I just want to end this in a while 
Every human on this planet so wide 
I want to shoot who did steal her smile.... 

But I'm just helpless and responsible too 
For her pain and make her sad.., 
I just wish God to take away my blood, 
Just to pay the debts of her tears,so many,shed.. 

But I'm too lying in a restricted grave 
Where my body is already eaten by insects and worm 
I can't do anything at all 
Just entitled to see her untill I'm completely gone....

Loser Infront Of Pride

Whenever thought of you.. 
Just read your messages again 
A thing stroke(s) my heart awhile 
A sensation equating my intense pain.. 

Waited for you a long 
Witnessed that anxious side 
Still never approached you myself 
Just for my absurd pride.... 

That seriously makes me regret 
What if, if I would? 
My ego can't calm my heart 
Then why not I should? 

Answers came up without count 
Lacking that straight-forward 'Yes' or 'No' 
Outnumbered that favoring option 
With my burning spirit got low..... 

My mind's ultimatum brought out 'No' 
So threw my cell aside 
I wish your approach would be their 
Coz, I'm a loser infront of my pride....
