The Time



I walk on the side-lines of the memory
The one which haunts me
I walk on the pavements of the memory
The one which taunts me
I walk on the downtrodden path
Of my sins and my deed
I have in my store the unholy grain
From which no one I can feed
I have my hands shivering 
And eyes wet
I have my heart racing
And palms in sweat
I have all that I 
Never wanted to have
I got all of it
For I trusted for a while

Her smile was it?
Her eyes was it?
Was it her face?
Her gracious glaze
Or was it about the figure?
The heart's trigger

Some say, it was the time
Not the first rain
Not the first train
Not the first shop we went along
Not the chairs we waited to sit
Not the trip we had to quit
Not the words we spoke of others
Not the rainbows we filled in the colours

It was the time?
Yet it was
For only it can run
At the pace to turn
The days into nights
The nights into days
The dates and the months
And the praise into pun
It was the time?
Yes it was
Neither me nor her
It was the time!!
Yes it was!!

The Wait

Smell of the sand
Roar of sea
One was mystic
The other majestic
The moon along the stars
Adding to the glory of the night
Beneath of which mere I
Confused
Whether to let the wound bleed
Or keep it stitched

The time was adorable
I could sense the memories being churned again
I could feel the air taking turn again
Again I felt, a pinch in my heart
Again I fell, for the nature to be worth
Worth enough to praise each second it offers
Worth enough to amaze the greatest sorcerers


Let it remain, the way it should
Let it nourish, the way it should
Let us cherish, the way we should
I thought all this
Standing below the sky at night
With the roar of the sea
And the smell of the sand
I await for the day
When the sun shall shine
With the purest light
