A Prayer

Towards you, O Lord,
You pulled me by chance,
Since that very moment,
I long for your glance.
But still feel so far,
From you I'm still apart.
This path seems so long,
Full of stones and thorns.
Just one wish I make,
Just one pledge I take,
For my soul's sake,
The journey ends soon,
Bless me with this boon,
And in the meanwhile I pray,
It takes longer than it may,
But, 'I quit', never must I say.

Valentine

Nothing left to ask,
Nothing left to say.
Walking hand in hand,
We've chosen our way.

But heart so innocent,
Fears night and day.
Whether you'll be mine,
Or you'll never may.

So for the one last time,
Let me ask my heart out.
In storms or in sunshine,
Will you be my valentine?

I Promise

I don't promise to make you feel happy always,
But I promise not to be a reason for your tears.

I don't promise to make you laugh hard,
But I promise to keep you smiling.

I don't promise to make your journey easy,
But I promise to hold your hand and walk along.

I don't promise to express my love often,
But I promise to keep loving you anyway.

I don't promise to make big promises,
But I promise to make smaller and keep them.

Wish

In my heart I have, a wish so strong,
To be with you in this life, and beyond.
And if you leave me halfway insane,
I promise, I'll never write poetry again.

Our Story

It isn't an attraction,
Or a mere infatuation,
Between us is a sacred
And divine connection.
It's never too late,
The way we've met,
Was written in our fate,
That is how you and me,
Became each other's soul mate.
You've touched my life the way,
No one else could or can.
I feel so grateful to my Lord,
That now,
You're my lady, and,
I'm your man.

The Path

I know my way,
I know my path.
It's of light and sound,
Not of void and dark.
I shall keep walking,
Leaving not any mark.
I'll not return to play again,
This world is not my park.

Poetry

Mind so restless,
Heart hiding volcanoes,
Soul under the load of sins.
Then to the rescue of all three,
There comes an art form,
From God's divine territory,
To release what lies underneath,
And they call it poetry.

Random Love Verses

With each passing day,
Whatever comes our way,
I just want you to know,
What I feel but don't say.

Amidst all the words unsaid,
And all the feelings unread,
Yet I believe we're connected,
As two hearts in one thread.

Hold my hand and take me away,
To a place where no one is to sway,
Just you and me and a tree house,
Near a river where forever we stay.

For all these years I've been caged,
You touched my soul and I was amazed,
It's time we fly up above the sky,
Where we remain unfollowed and unchased.

Strange are the ways of Lord,
And sudden is His gracious rain pour,
He makes us fall for the one,
Whom we've never known before.

The Connection

Two strangers on an unknown path,

Walked together yet miles apart.

Never met, though, never seen,

In ups and down, united we've been.

Our story is no less than a fairy tale,

Storms will come, but our ship will sail.

The relation that we're tagged in,

is as sacred as heavenly dove.

I wish I could give it a name, which is,

More than friendship but less than love.

The Fall

Despite all the cautions my heart takes,
if, however, I fall in the ocean of love,
do not come to rescue,
do not extend your helping hand.
Let me take a plunge,
deep down the untraveled path,
do not pull me up to life again,
for the one who falls in love once,
rises above all the sins.
