If I Could Only Live…


If I could only live for a minute…
I will tell you how much I love you
Show you and hug you
Even for a minute, I will stop the time

If I could only live for an hour…
I will give you flowers
Write a note of passion
Even for an hour, I will freeze the moment

If I could only live for a day…
I will cook your favourite menu
Tell you stories and jokes
Even for a day, you will remember me forever

If I could only live for a month…
I will cuddle you everyday to bed
Tell you how lucky I am having you with me
Even for a month, our memory will last till eternity

If I could only live for a moment
I want to share it with you
Sharing the things we love to do
If and only if I could live…

Serendipity

Heroes of Persian Fairy tale
Phenomena of pleasant things
Not sought or look for but good finds
Hard to understand nor explain

Known through senses than intuition
Spatio-temporal noumenon
An exceptional rendezvous
Astonished in just saying hello

Marvel in just a glance
A shake hand nor a kiss on the cheek
Like a magician’s spell
Admiration and splendour to behold

At your brightness and luster
A wonder to sublime
We are like the sun and the moon
Too bright to tame but compliments one another

As you radiate sheen light
Borrowed luminosity at sight
Effulgence brightness
Bedazzled in a moment’s daze

We were so right for each other
So close to hold one another
We were meant to be
In a moment of serendipity

Life Is A Dance


Life is a dance
In the game of chance
Moving backwards or forward
Bends or hinds in a solid ground

Passion is life
As long as your heart desires
The fondness and affection
Vigour and ardour of emotion

Taking control
Moving in a trance
Rhythm and style as the music played
Own the stage, trip the light fantastic

Life is a dance
Making a journey in the limelight of chance
Get up, rise stand or fall
Life is a game of circumstances
We all played chances in one’s arm

In More Ways than One


In more ways than one…
We were connected at more levels than we realized
We agreed to disagree
Communicating our shortcomings and needs
Understand unconditionally

In more ways than one…
We met not by chance but by fate
We accepted and became friends at an instance
Letting go and fully accepting each other
We were so right and didn’t  let go

In more ways than one…
We were available physically and emotionally
Had dinner, walked home, asked about thoughts of life
We feel protected and cherished
A soul mate must recognized and fulfilled

In more ways than one…
We dreamt in sync
Similar interests, ambitions and goals
We existed together in harmony
We were soul mates ideologically

In more ways than one…
We both changed emotionally for the better
A new understanding, a new experience
A new solution with each encounter
We both changed our lives together

In more ways than one…
We increased awareness
Constantly forced one to confront self
Gave each other self-confidence
We had the power to make the magic happened?
