Let It Be

Let It Be

This poem is a message from a father to his dear child...

Sleeping peacefully, my dear baby, so lovely and mild

Three words I would like you to know, my child

"Let it be"

Sometimes you will give your best

Yet you might be nowhere close to the rest

Just let it be

Sometimes your heart might be broken

With only memories left as a token

Just let it be

Sometimes you have to forget your long wait

And walk away with a losing, disappointed gait

Just let it be

Sometimes all your efforts might go in vain

You might be left with just regrets and pain

Just let it be

Sometimes life may get rough and harsh

But never allow your mind to be marsh

Just let it be 

Sometimes close to victory, you might face defeat

But do not let your confidence go offbeat

Just let it be

Sometimes when you are very lost and confused 

Know that, within you, I am always fused 

So just let it be

Nostalgic Nirvana

Nostalgic Nirvana

Reflecting all around

Rods and cones of my eye

Images of you

Like the stars in the sky

Resonating all around

Cochlea and canals of my ear

Melodies of you

Playing each moment of the year

Gushing ceaselessly

In the tunnels of my nose

Fragrance of you 

As a garden full of rose

Flowing endlessly

In the rivulets of my nerves

Your single touch

Fueling my soul's verves

Carved all over

The museum of my mind

Memories of you

That you left behind

Painted everywhere

On the walls of my heart

Words of yours

Masterpiece of a divine art.

So Close Yet So Far

So Close Yet So Far

We were so close

Yet there wasn't a blossom of love's rose

I tried my best to go far

yet my heart's door for her is always ajar

Now I know what addiction is

I feel it in all the sweet moments I miss

My life could have been the best

But destiny wanted my joys to be at rest

The source of my smile is fading

Through the streams of tears I keep on wading

The hope will never be lost

Coz in my heart she is forever frost

So close yet so far

Just like the night sky's bright little star

For her I will keep waiting like the moon

With hopes that she will change her mind soon :)
