missing you...

This Sunday evening….

Sitting here in this restaurant lawn,
People that came in early, they are just gone,
Whatever it is that is served on this big veg platter,
Not sure if it is really something edible or one big disaster,

I miss all that we used to have together,
The time when we both had tea in bad weather,
Running together in that thunder and rain all around,
Sitting and hugging each other, loud music in stereo surround,

I see all around me, couple, joking, laughing,
I even still see people around smokin’ and coughing,
Only a few couple here around, enjoying their evening,
All I have here is a cart load of memories, that’s all I could bring,

I felt like being on top of the world with you,
I don’t even have that picture of you that I nicely drew,
Should I withdraw and go back, to see you single this night,
I’d rather have wished, that we never fought, had I set things right,

All alone here, they nod in agreement, the tulips,
I wish you’d rather had me lashed, cursed between the lips,
Without leaving me that very evening, this night that very day,
How does it matter to me, where it was in June, or April or in May ?

You are not here and I am seeing you all here,
This loneliness that I am experiencing is that I had to fear,
That made me jump up and down, crazy and mad, screaming,
That I thought you were out with someone else, and I was dreaming,

Imagined things that never happened, that did not,
You kept me happy and I just did it not do it well, my part,
Now you are gone, all I see is you flying and walking next to me,
Smiling at me, making me realize all those blunders, not setting me free,

I keep walking in this street, and I see all the lights,
Couldn’t help watching those men and wife, busy in fights,
That little boy in the street, trying to attract his mom’s attention,
That she will buy him toys, well, the unperturbed Dad, not to mention,

That little girl playing with her pink frock, that is new,
She wasn’t bothered about anyone around, not there were few,
I see him and her, she on his shoulder and he slides his hand on her face,
Love I see all around, I know it is just doesn’t matter, whatever may be the race,

Both of us then, were mad for nothing, just nothing,
The reason why we fought for, we forgot and started abusing,
It never should have ended that way, because you meant so much to me,
You turned me and made me really that somebody, I just really wanted to be,

I am here, you there and no longer with one another,
I just can’t see another woman, next to me, a wife, a good mother,
Almost back to my place now, the 34 floor apartment here, few lights on,
Everyone one of the soul here, will go back to dreams and sleep, will be gone,

When times were good, I didn’t see what was true,
Just me and my words here struggling, I pray they reach you
Someday that you come to know, I was lost and was waiting so long,
And that I realized much later, that I was the one who was so very wrong,

I wish you were here with me, warm and tender
I wish you give me just one chance, that I can really surrender,
I wish I could go back and turn things right then and there for us all,
I wish there really happened one miracle between us, so you pick my call,

This one day, has been the loneliest time of my life,
This day that’s every other single day, had I deferred the strife,
This day, I had your birthday cake ready here, candles ready to blow,
I watched them all go down, with you not around; they still went onto glow,

These lines from me here are just over long and overdue,
I wish I could end this time just the way I want, between me and you………

IPL3T20 Finals

Not even sure if I at all, planned to write,
On IPL3 today, on a terrible fight night,
I lost & won, it ain’t all about the ticket,
So, let’s talk about a game, this Cricket.

Winning the toss, is such a sentiment,
Dhoni planned it all, and then he sent,
His best men, known for batting right,
He knows who can put up better fight!

The last 5 overs did, so much to game,
The score led them into The Hall of fame,
Highest in all the IPL Finals so far,it is,
They did earn my respect, and my kiss !

The match was almost neck to neck,
Pollard NOT IN.., F! err, what the heck,
You want me to cite a stronger quote,
Let me not be so cruel, on that note!

Was all RAINa, pouring cats & dogs,
Wickets tumbled like jumping frogs,
The master blaster once again, fails?
The MI Team, losing control & trails.

The God f cricket, did his part so well,
Everyone has to play, it was the sell,
But, why did Pollard come in so late?
Was it planned, or was he on a date?

Just said, CSK- ChoSen to be Kings,
Mission Impossible team sadly sings,
Now, let’s not get into some details,
For, the purpose of my write up fails!

Let’s all learn to love this game today,
For we will forget all of these in May,
Just relax, for all the joy of this game,
Someone makes money, in his name!

New Heroes born, after this winning,
Betting and Setting , still one sinning,
We are just the audience, just unaware,
If you were a part of that, just beware!

But, this will be forgotten next week,
Matches next week, will not be bleak,
The game will go on, as someone drew,
We don’t’ have one clue, me and you !

The Longest Week...

It was so easier said than done,
When we’re in it, there was so much fun,
That love that just knocked me down,
I tried ne’er to get up, I let myself drown,
I dreamed of you in a wedding gown,

This isn’t supposed to be this way,
I felt we’re going to get married in May,
We planned honeymoon in azizi,
I just couldn’t hold you, you so greasy,
Like a fish, you slipped and said take it easy,

All good times and all that smile,
That long drive, you came all that mile,
Was I the one, who stayed so weak here,
Or did I have in mind some kind of fears,
I never expected all this to end in big tears.

Love comes once, just one time…
Makes you commit all the crime,
Blinds your head and mind hard...
Ne’er be there to get that Red Card!

Girl, it was easy for you, to walk away,
You said we can’t move on, so easy to say,
It was me, living all that life together with you,
Never released you not picking calls, were a clue,
But all that I said, and all that I swore, were true.

Sleepless nights and days without food,
You and I, together would have been so good,
I felt like god, flying with angel wings, so high,
Until you, pretty little bullet that shot me out the sky,
I came down like crashing, it felt good, oh my my,

Never thought we’d have been so deep,
In love and hate, that we would sit and weep,
The bullet of love, that you shot in my heart,
I ne’er could keep it, out, did I wish to take it ?

Love comes just once, one time…
Makes you commit all the crime,
Blinds your head and mind hard…
Ne’er be there to get that Red card!

We had it with us, we almost had,
I don’t want to talk about, who made it bad,
And we are no longer, one good man and wife,
‘cause you pulled it out, the bullet with a knife,
You ne’er asked if it hurt, am dying in half-life,

I spent all my time on our house and kids,
Ne’er thought you’d consider best of the bids,
I know you would be flying too far in some days,
I always ran slower and just let you win the race,
Was hard to take you say, keep away from my face,

I am back to where I started, my start line,
How do I start, which way do I go, I need some sign,
In this game of snake and love, both let me decline,
When I stayed so that we start something new,
When I always ended, as between me and you…..

Love came once, just one time
Made me commit all the crime,
Blinded my head and mind hard,
Well, I had to take the RED card!

Quitting Company?

I miss you….

I miss everyone of those girl and boy,
All those Narcissus and Helen of Troy,
That which decided, I’ve to move on,
No one will bother, when I am gone,

I miss you all, my dear brother, sister,
‘You’ve no idea what went thru mister’,
I can hear you say that loud and clear,
This step that you took without a fear,

I ain’t stopping you from leaving now,
You can leave this work, for your love,
Just take one thing very clear on mind,
Some things are so hard to go and find,

I have quit companies for few reasons,
This has happened across the seasons,
But, stay clear on what you really want,
After quitting, just don’t let that haunt,

Life and Money is about the smart game,
Add everything tomorrow,in your name,
It just adds to ONE, not a decimal more,
This game ne’er gives a satisfying score!

Don’t sell yourself for all those money,
You are worth more, Trust me, Honey,
Don’t let money decide what YOU are,
When you realize you would be so far!

Every company and job that you chose,
That new salary with a hike just glows,
But, it is all just a matter of some time,
Again don’t say, why not more dime?!!

And then he complains and hops over,
Manager like a villain, gulshan grover,
Hari Sadu, Hitler, Musolini, or a joker,
Working for a job, that’s so mediocre ?

My gentle request, don’t take it hard,
Life’s is not that bad, to live so scarred,
This company is a dream of good team,
Rests on values of leaders, so supreme.

Every system fails that day, whenever,
The leader has less time, or has never,
Paid his attention to the screams loud,
He was gone forgotten being so proud.

Chase your dreams, but have the vision,
There is no rewind in the life’s mission !
Quit, but think million times as you do,
Be a thinker, just between me and you.

Love., Genesis., Genetics

Love., What goes around, comes around and around.. and around….

Boy []
I have to tell her today, and it’s been a while,
I can’t always look at her and fake one smile,
Should I tell her today, or tell her tomorrow,
Should I get my new bike, car or just borrow ?

Girl[]
He’s so damn cute and crazy and I so like him,
He’s up so tight in his pants, groomed, so trim,
But, why won’t he walk up to me, and just say,
That he likes me, loves me, and why not today ?

Boy[]
I can still see her walking, from where I just sit,
I love her, and so much I do, but how do say it ?
She is not my first, so how do I know I love her?
She might knock me down, or say excuse me sir !

Girl[]
Guy, don’t keep staring, just say it now, just now,
All you have to do is just hold one time, and bow,
You are not my first, and I just know how it goes,
Didn’t you guys know, things change over a rose ?

Boy[]
Should I buy her some gift or just give her 3 roses,
God, is this a sin committed, help me dear Moses,
Love is what that goes around, and comes around,
That keeps you on cloud nine, high above ground.

Girl[]
When will he know, that I’ve been long in this race,
He doesn’t even know I’ve only won that, first place,
But, I still would love to run along, slow down along,
Boys can’t handle the truth, I can’t correct all wrong,

Boy[]
Just for this once girl, can you approach me or talk ?
And give me a start, that I can ask you out for a walk,
Why should the heavier start be always be with boys,
I am not sure, if they fall for bikes, walks, Rolls Royce!

Girl[]
I can see that he’s staring, wondering what am thinking,
He can’t take his eyes away, even when I am blinking,
I can only laugh to myself, Boy, just get out, ask me out,
I wonder what he’s looking at in me, am still in doubt,

Boy[]
No, keep your eyes firm and look at her into her face,
You can’t let this dream die down now, in all the days,
Today is the day, I have to tell her, let me ask her, yes,
Hopefully, she replies too courteously, God, just bless,

Girl[]
Ha, finally he is making that move, now let me pretend,
That I am working on something, let me just lean, bend,
Oh, I can finally hear him walking, loud and now closer,
Should I open my work area, or just internet browser ?

Boy[]
Wait, I can’t do this now, what If she behaves real odd,
What if she thinks am just an $@@#$, calls me a fraud,
This is my second, and it was easy when it was first time,
All I had to do then was, tell her to read my small rhyme,

Girl[]
Oh No, not again, he is not going to make it today again,
These idiots don’t think twice, while playing Max Payne !
Why can’t they even realize, that it is like a roller-coaster,
It only takes guts to go in, once in, you are on fame poster.

Boy[]
Hi, Can I borrow your pen for a second, I can’t find mine,
I had so many of them in desk, can’t find one, I had nine!
Well, she smiles now and hands me over a ball point pen,
I peeped into her desk, it looks like she has more, like ten,

Girl[]
Ok, there it goes, boys.. never can make it the easier way,
It never has happened in the past, or in future, or today ?
Why do they make their conclusions, the bond for linking,
Can’t they JUST DO THEIR PART, let me do the thinking ??

Boy[]
Well, it’s now or never, so I have to pull up some courage,
Let me write her name here, and get away from this page,
When I return her pen back to her, let me go ahead ask,
I have to be bold and tear off this fear, wearing as mask,

The final moment……
Boy [] Hei, here it is, would you like to go out for a coffee ?
Girl[] Well, will it offend you, if I say I just always have tea ?
Boy[] err…all I want to tell you is, it is so nice to talk to you,
Girl[] Just shut up and say that you love me..idiot….
and be the first one to say it, between me and you ..!

Breakup - Reset

No one would have expected this,
Neither did he, during the first kiss,
She walks away that girl, his own,
And they were quite well known,

That small table in a remote corner,
That soft music from James Horner,
None noticed the half glass of wine,
To say, that nothing went very fine,

15 minutes before, I saw them talk,
Anyone could make out, it was sad,
All things start with a coffee or walk,
Now, I see him gone way too mad,

He asked, Does he make you laugh,
She said, He doesn’t make me cry,
She went away, his nice better half,
He didn’t stop her, didn’t even try,

He sat there, as she walked away,
Few eyes turned to see, in unison,
Why didn’t he just ask her to stay?
One breakup story has just begun?

Well, a scotch in my hand, so neat,
I saw her turn around, as she left,
She simply was gone in the street,
He lay with his hands, badly wept,

He did not rise, and I could see it,
Few drops of tears down on floor,
I doubted if he will take that split,
When I just saw it open, the door,

She walked in again, pale and dry,
The candle was out, the wine still,
Did she come to say last goodbye,
Did she come to get her Veg grill ?

There was one big silence, which
Could be heard, by me and rest,
Who felt the existence of a hitch,
What she did next, was just best,

She stood and shouted his name,
“ Are you listening to me Mr. Bill ?”,
She cleared her throat, that dame,
“ Will you stay, promise you will “,

Love all around, very well spread,
That can bring alive, all that dead,
Scotch gulped, my spectacular view,
I saw it happen, between me and you.

Genesis - Adam and Eve

Genesis

What if Adam and Eve hadn’t met
Each other, in the beginning here
On Earth, and not ready or had set;
What if Eve had had all those fear,

Had refused to go out with Adam,
Thinking he was a pervert and sick,
He would smirk her as one Madam,
That he had others that he’d pick,

Good that she did not refuse dating,
Like women today, who doubt men
And boys, who stay all day, waiting,
Busted, but still do it over and again,

What if Eve had good ideas then of
Better career options, and had left
Adam behind, like one bitter half,
With heart, not lost due to a theft,

What if Adam had began cheating
Eve then, and had stayed in office,
Lied to her, on one board meeting,
What if, she never did have to hiss,

And refused to cook, or stay up late,
Until Adam arrives back from work,
He went with cute girls on one date,
That she never called him, big jerk,

And continued to love him all along
So he realized his folly, and stayed
With her forever, being so wrong,
And he loved her, ne’er betrayed,

What if Eve had met another man,
While on her way to the big shop,
She fell, and was somebody’s fan,
What if she were hit by some mop,

Adam was not there, for her help,
He was busy at work, with abacus,
What if no one heard her big yelp,
What if she didn’t make it a fuss,

There are so many, what IFs, BUTs
But fact remains that Adam & Eve,
Were deeply in love, so were nuts
About each other, will ne’er leave

Not that they didn’t have a choice,
But they choose to love and let live,
Stayed together long, and rejoice,
To tell us today, that love is to give.

Too confusing to consider all these?
But, we have come all way through,
I wish ignorance all was a good bliss,
Love is the key, between me and you.

Get Inspired.

They say, a positive anything is better
Than a negative nothing; well, I think
It is true to every word and the letter,
Let that in your heart deep, let it sink,

Over and above all of your frustration,
On CRR, Appraisal and some feedback,
Go Help yourself, get some inspiration,
If you get weaker, you are under attack.

So many of those bees reading to sting,
So many there around who want to rise,
Everyone wants to be treated as a king,
But no one wants to pay for it, the price,

I can tell you the secrets to go up there,
If you have the time and patience for it,
It’s not about building a castle in the air,
Relax and breathe slowly, think, just sit,

The three things are really so important,
Patience, Sanity and some common sense,
Patience when I say, that’s not one stunt,
Passive means you’re lazy on self defense.

Sanity, what you need to keep stronger,
While on call, in discussion, in conf rooms,
If you cannot take those words any longer,
Laugh, kick much as you can, in rest rooms.

When you come back, you will feel lighter,
Before you type anything, read it through,
You would have returned calm and brighter,
And you realize every man’s point of view.

Lest you might be mistaken for some jerk,
Think about what effects it will later bring,
A little bit of common sense, during work,
Think before you type and say something.

Always remember there are two sides for
Any argument, your way, his way and that
RIGHT way, for all’s fair in love and in war,
You don’t get anything, being a tough brat,

Your priority should be you, your growth,
Don’t spend time on those whose future,
You cannot control, so take that good oath,
Thread this as harder, as surgeon’s suture!

Have they worked for you, you might ask me,
I have been out meeting people in the years,
I’ve worked 7 years, since I was twenty three,
Working my way through the wedding fears!

Wishing you my kind of life and the success,
It’s okay to lose as many times as we succeed,
Life’s all about seeing some bit of a progress,
Be the rat’s head, not one lion’s good old tail.

Wishing you a lovely and great week ahead,
To succeed, struggles you have to go through,
So be the one to lead, don’t prefer being led,
I know you can do better, between me and you.

LOST

Don’t repeat my mistake young men,
I am here alone, and through all pain,
You will realize all that am saying when,
The moment you stopped being sane,

Its been six years and I really miss her,
There has been no turning till this time,
Not until I heard, “ Do excuse me, sir”,
I moved away and noticed my ex prime,

The one for which, I had breathed life,
The one who changed everthing in me,
The one who claimed would be my wife,
The one who swore will ne’er disagree,

I lost her, my better half, in a fit of rage,
Just because, she was out with a friend,
Never showed maturity for my own age,
When I felt falling in love was one trend,

I saw her today here, with her only son,
She looked back at me, slightly confused,
When both knew nothing can be undone,
Where I was the only one to be accused,

Just a ‘Hi’ is all that I got as a reply then,
7 years now, and you will be blown away,
So stay calm and patience, my dear men,
Keep all that faith, love alive, don’t slay,

What’s lost is lost, will remain really gone,
Use your head more than…… young man,
Sorry, I meant your heart, now don’t yawn,
Don’t always sit right on retirement plan,

I spent five minutes with her, so precious,
That’s the best I could, with her son crying,
For food and she had to go, less to discuss,
She leaves me there, with tears, so dying,

I stood there, as she walked with her son,
That pretty lady, I had loved, only loved,
For my act of stupidity, on November one,
I am paying the price, gone my beloved,

She turned around once, to give me a smile,
I realized in love,she had gone past a mile,
Noticed her son’s hand, waving a good bye,
There she leaves me , with one big sigh,

New York ! City of dreams, just dreams,
Heavy rain, breeze that was so untrue,
My heart out with loud and big screams,
Do keep your love, between me and you.

Dil Chahtai Hai

Learnings…. From Dil Chahta Hai

You cannot find another grand movie,
I just don’t mind if you find another one,
But, these are my versions and stories,
Doesn’t really matter if you really care,

Words you can say, lines you can write,
Recollect today when you got to a fight,
But, if you stand away and spend time,
Just forget this poem and some rhyme,

You see Sid, Sameer and Akash around,
All those who played in college ground,
All of us now busy with everyday work,
Most of the fun, forgotten for one perk,

Sid, you are and you have all that talent,
Why feel shy to love some older woman,
Is it so wrong to be a good , nice gallant ?
Ya’ can still remain a good Mother’s son!

Sameer, you have that charm and spirit,
You love doing and explore all you want,
Of course you will be loved for your wit,
You can tell all that you do, to your aunt,

Akash, this is yet another funny man here,
He is that person you see, making all fun,
Who lives a splendid life that’s so premier,
Who will get normal like us, in the long run,

Shalini, sincere and loyal lady, I see you there,
Pooja, my pretty lady, you took so very long,
Girls like them are not hard to find, I swear,
Give your sincere love, they will come along,

Women rule, are there any second words ?
Did you notice that, hinted indirectly to us?
We have to get in line, my talented nerds,
That’s nature, now shed your go, don’t fuss,

Stronger ones are always shown as weaker,
Don’t ask why, its innate, we cannot help it,
Even if you are a god, or a pleasure seeker,
You have no choice, but gotta simply admit,

Moral of the story ? Ego, just throw it away,
Go back and find your friends, you cursed,
Don’t wait for tomorrow, do it now, today,
Give your original, not the one rehearsed,

Recollect that, there is not one happy ending,
But do your part, even if there’s no benefit,
Don’t kill your life, or leave anything pending,
It is never too late, so don’t soil and don’t sit,

You are Sameer, Sid and Akash, all through,
It is not something masculine, ladies, to you,
This isn’t gender specific, does apply to you,
Don’t lose in life, keep it between me and you.
