शुक्रिया

लम्हा लम्हा अब एक याद है,
तुम हो तो जीने में स्वाद है,
कहना था शुक्रिया, मेरी जान,
बस एक शुक्रिया । 

सुकून ऐसा मिटाये नहीं मिटता,
यार ऐसा, प्यार ऐसा, किस्मत 
कहिये वरना मिलाये नहीं मिलता । 

तेरी हंसी अब मेरे होठों पर आती है,
तेरी आवाज़ अब बातों में मेरे आती है । 

तू मिला तो राहत है,
तू मिला तो चाहत है,
रास आया हूँ ज़रा तुम्हे भी,
सो कहना था शक्रिया । 

दिल तो ले लिया, 
ये लफ्ज़ भी रख ही लो,
अब हमारे कहाँ दोनों,
प्यार की तालीम दी 
दोनों को आपने,
लो कह दिया शुक्रिया । 

प्यार करना तो जानते थे,
बरकरार रखना सिखाया,
इसलिए शुक्रिया, बस शुक्रिया । 

Hugs

A hug for you, a hug for me.
I wonder how would our 
first hug be. 

Short and awkward or
long and assured.
Tight and happy or 
sad and tired. 

A hug for you, a hug for me. 
Wonder how our first hug would be. 

My embrace, your arms,
your waist, my arms.

Raw breath ushering down on
our shoulders,
panicking shy souls hugging,
confessing their love.

A body telling to another,
I missed you.
All the words I had, but not a hug.

Finally here. Eyes to eyes. 
Arms to arms. 
Breath to breath.
A hug for you, a hug for me.
First hug I wish never ends honey. 
I love you. :)

Synchronous hearts

Like two clocks ticking, 
same rhythm, same sound,
tick-tick, beat-beat
our hearts I wish beat 
with the same harmony,
same rhythm, same sound.
Beat-beat, tick-tick, 
tick-beat, beat-tick.

I want you to miss me
when I message you,
I want you to message me,
when I miss you.
Why, you ask honey.
Synchronous hearts. 
We have synchronous hearts. 

My heart beats for you,
Your beats for mine,
Is this love honey, I ask. 
You tell me - listen to heart.
Didn't say your heart or my heart,
you said heart. 
I asked, whose heart ?
You said our heart.
Not yours, not mine, ours.

I asked why.
And you said
Synchronous Hearts. 
Because we have 
Synchronous Hearts. 
What did I say then ?
I smiled. 
And as expected, 
I love you. 

Fairy tale

Tales so many, yet the sweetest of all
a Fairy Tale.

Was destined for us to meet
where people kill time - QQ.
We talked and talked.
I felt a tinge of love.
You asked QQ (kyun kyun) ?

I answered but it wasn't time.
You were to be cheated,
while I was greeted by 
new girls on QQ.

A year passed. 
And I sat bored, just returned 
from wedding. 
Back to office next day, boring 
life, boring job and no love.
I scrolled and scrolled.
I saw you and scrolled.

Then I saw a sad smiley.
New year and a sad smiley.
It was our fate's twist.
The twist of love.

You were down and I was glad.
Fresh sparks flew. 
You didn't yet, yet I loved you.
Intense and true, it was time 
for love to win.

A hesitation still for you - What If,
Still you and me,
Not 'WE'.

But then came the twist in tale,
our fairy tale. 
My love became our love. 
My promises became our promises. 
It wasn't about you and me, but 'WE'.

I loved you. You went. 
You came back, I loved you.
I loved you. You loved me. 
No QQ (kyun kyun) this time.

Tales so many, yet the sweetest of all
is our Fairy Tale.
Girls so many, yet the best of them all
is my babe. I love you.

Love

Love seeped into our hearts, 
like a child tip-toeing to
the kitchen for cookies.

Four lettered word and 
a feeling beyond words.

I thank God for giving me you,
for making me worth you.

And we'll sneeze out the spats,
if argument is the disease,
let's vow to be tablets. :)

Just the thought of you,
smiling as you read
is love. The bliss I feel
when you utter love
is love. 

The fact that you were born
and we met and so beautifully 
is not love, but a fact really. :p

But I tell you, if this heart 
has learnt to love,
it was learning for you,
to tell you it could pass,
a heart to love you with 
all its heart. I love you. :) 

Smile please :)

Days will pass, People shall travel

into your life, out of your life,

you love some, you hate some,

your promises rigid, theirs frail,

you shall love yet they will fail.

I want you to remember but,

you are someone's sunshine,

people who breathe for you,

words his crave for you,

for your soul is pure but 

tears have no cure. 

So let's get hurt, I want you to,

for your love is precious,

love who loves you back,

and forgive those who lack.

Your smile is my sleep.

Your fever is my worry.

Your tears, my fingers.

You happy, me happy.

You love me, I love you.
