Just Give me a Reason (Based on lyrics by PINK)

After all these Years
And all those Nos
Can' t You just give me a reason
For a Yes
I've tried to come clean
But that Look of Yours
Always stops me.
Yes I have been yearning for Your Love
Searching for it in all those Faces
Always finding Broken Hearts
Looking for more Reasons
Tell me that Your Love for me is Bent
And we can make it Straight Again.

Giving Up

It is not the Warm Beach
or the gentle sound of the lapping waves
What I will miss is your smile
The stealing looks
The fading sounds of laughter from asunder
Those Sea Gulls
They get up and fly
Never Looking back
In search of a new landing place
How do they Give up so Easily?

Meditation

It is storming outside
Grey Skies and Strong Winds
Rain is freezing
Into Wet snow now
I am sitting at the window
trying to meditate
The realization sinks in
Impure thoughts
Do not mix with pure Snow
To be one with Nature
One has to be Clean Inside.

Lost in London

I want to get my Fill
Walking the streets
Of this lit up City
Happy Women
All Dressed in high heels
Painted Faces
And Fashionable Dresses
This is what I need
A Happy Content Beautiful Face
To complete my Life
So I don't yearn for anything more
But when I get close
I see the Emptiness in all these Eyes
It is almost like my solitude reflects in them
So I go from here to there
Looking for You
or someone who can bring me to You

Walking away one more time

I will never solve this puzzle
Far away or close to You
What I need to do
Is to let it be
For some things are meant to happen
Shaped in the Past
Neither Wrong Nor Right
I want to walk the straight line
But every Line leads to You
So don't walk away from Me
For True Love Never Dies
It lives in Your heart and Mine
In our Hearts beating as one.

Drop by Drop

I will Drink it All
Drop by Drop
Whether it is Love
Or Hate
Whatever Comes out of Your Heart
The Bipolar Mind
Impossible to predict
Churns it All in
And Spits it out
My Fate and Your Fate
Hangs in Balance
Thoughts will decide
What Happens next
So lets sit down
Calmly Look each other in the Eye
And start Thinking.

With the Sun in one Hand and the Moon in the other

I have always walked the Fine Line
Trying to balance it all out
With the Sun in one Hand and the Moon in the other
The Heat  and the Cold
 Bring it all together
And everything melts into One
A Fusion of Dusk and Dawn
A soft glow of Light
Much like Heaven and Hell
Combined
One Door Leading to Another

You Shine Like Venus in the Evening Sky

Venus
The Goddess of Love
Is Shining in the Southwest Sky
And so shines Your Love
A Beacon of Solace
For a weary traveler like me
Coming home at Dusk.
A Hot cup of Tea 
The Welcome Look in Your Eyes
Burns Bright
Brighter than any Star
What is it that makes Life worth living
It is You, My Love.

Years of Pain

Fall is here again
I remember the time when
We had gone out together
Hand in Hand
Leaning on each other shoulders
As we walked
Our Silence broken by the sound of Crunching Leaves
What were you thinking
Is it not true that everything is nothing
And that a warm touch
Can heal all those years of Pain

Rising

With You around
I always felt confident
Walked with a spring in My steps
Always said that I am like the Phoenix
I will rise from the ashes for You are there
And then it happened
I did get burned to the Ground
And You were there in the distance
With an outstretched hand
But I couldn't rise up
I couldn't muster all that
I thought I had stored in me
Oh where do I go from here
I have let myself down
And more importantly I have let you down
And if I do rise now
I won't be able to look you in the Eyes

Saransh

एक औरत
 कुछ टूटी सी
कुछ रूठी सी
हर रात मेरे सपनों में आती है
कभी तो उसकी आँखो में
ख़ुशी और कभी ग़म दिखता है
अो मेरी करुणा की देवी
अपने हृदय को मत पिघलने दे
इसमें तेरे जीवन का सारांश है
मैं तेरे साथ जियूँगा
तेरे इस दर्द को पियुंगा

Places that scare me

I want to go
To the places that scare me
Those dark dreary corners
That lead to the unknown
Always bypassing them
I have become a Coward.
I want to look in your eyes
And say
My Love I set you free
You can come  with me
But don't feel bound
I am giving up on my possessions
But I never did look at you as one
You are and will be my heart and soul

Butterfly

A Butterfly flutters across me
My chain of thoughts is disrupted
I follow the flight of these colored wings
Landing on a purple Zinnia
Delicate things
Wonders of Nature
This is how delicate and tender Love is
A flight of Emotions
So True in Life and Fantasy
Perpetual Bliss
A Tug at Hearts
A heaviness in Our Souls
Every time I feel Down
Your Arms is what I want

Scotland (Heart Of Gold)

I have spent my day
An Eternity
Out in the Brilliant Sunshine
Golden Peaks Glistening
Sheep like white specks 
Gentle Slopes caressing the shoreline
I capture all of this in my mind
The Boat Ride
The Sea Eagles.
Back at the hotel room
I look at You
In all your Resplendent Beauty
A Heart of Gold
Glowing like the Mountains
Pure and Simple
Beautiful forever.

Scotland

These vast hills of Scotland
Covered in Heather
With clouds resting on their peaks
They will stay with me forever
Wish you and me were rocks
Rolling down the colorful slopes
Tasting and smelling the earth
Not a worry in the world
Sleeping under the open sky
Waking up to the sound of seagulls
In the arms of Mother Nature
Her Healing Touch all over us.

This World

Yes My Love
I admit that I feel down
Who doesn't
We are all Humans
And that is why I come to You
My Little Sanctuary
I take refuge in your arms
Find Bliss
Get Recharged
And Go back to face the World
This very World
Which gave me You.

Waves

Wave after wave
Breaking at the shoreline
The sand is soft
Walking barefoot
I get nostalgia
Memory after memory
Of you holding me tight
That content smile on your face
Makes my life complete

Miracle

Right where the water meets the sand
Things get very dynamic
Sand is swept away
Sand is brought back
I sit at that very edge
Feel the beach moving under me
I sit very still
waiting for that miracle to happen

Drifting Away

I see a trickle
Running down your cheek
It must be the Smog in your eyes
How many times have I said this
Let's not take vacations
In Big Cities
The polluted air
The acid atmosphere
Gets into our eyes
And into our heart
We come as friends
And drift away from each other

Breaking Free

I Decided to Break free
of all these Fears
Once and For All
I locked Myself
In A room with Bare walls
And Bright Lights.
With a Thick Brush
I Painted All my Fears on the Walls
Glaring at Me
No Escape.
The Fear of Losing You
(I also thought of the Joy of Having You)
Of Being Alone
Living Lonely and Dying in Solitude
And all that is in between
Then I took A Sledge Hammer
And Smashed Everything to Pieces
The Walls, The Paint Brush
Your Name, My Love and All

Endless Love

I love you for the way you are
With all Your laughter
And your Tears
I don't Judge You
By What you did
Or did not do
I Love you like I Love Myself
You dissolve into Me
We become One
One heart and One Soul
and this is where this thought ends
and Love begins
Endless Love

Crusader

A Crusader is what I am
I went deep into my Mind
Shook it all out
Spilled everything in front of me
Along with my Fears
Came out Our Loving Memories
I know I am a Prisoner
Caught in my own Mind
You might say why
A simple question
Should have a simple answer
I don't have it
Can You Liberate me from this Crusade.

Fatal Attraction

Like a Moth attracted
To a Light Bulb
I am addicted to You
Fatally Drawn
My Destiny is sealed.
Don't walk away from me My Love
I will find You wherever it may be
We are Fated to be together
In this life and Beyond.


Crazy for You

I am Caught
Caught in this Time Warp
I keep moving between the Days that I had you
and the Days that I lost You
There is Pain and Desire
A Sense of Urgency and Panic
I feel my Heart beating fast
The fear of Losing You
The Joy of having You
it all blends into one
I fall asleep
and wake up to find You next to me
A Warm smile and a gentle Hug.

Energy Flow

This is how the Energy Flows
From You to Me
and From Me to You
And then some body else comes in
With His or Her Energy
It may be Good or Bad
But enough to disturb the Rhythm
To disrupt the Cycle
and we are left picking up the Pieces again.
We need to keep people out
Out of our Tiny little Inner Circle.

The Truth

Whenever You try to Soar
Break into a Brilliant Flight
I bring You down
You ask me why
And I say
I want to Soar with You
I don't want to be left alone
We shall ride the Wind together
Feel the Thrills as one
Enough of Flying alone
This is not what relationships are for
You cannot draw strength from me
And become Free
Love does Bind
By an Invisible Chord
Every time You get Pulled away
I feel the Pain

Your Love

Even with the Rays of Sunlight streaming through the trees.
There is still a chill in the Air
Your face lights up in the setting Sun
And Your Smile adds to the Warmth
Why is it that I Love You So much
Your Love becomes my Strength
and It becomes my Weakness
It gives me Courage to go on
And Yet there are days when I miss You so much.

Missing You

An all too familiar feeling
Is how I describe my Love for You
It is not that I am missing You today
Snow is melting away Fast
Crocuses are Flowering
The Green is coming back
I should be out with You
Walking the side walks
With no worries
A Light Spring Jacket
A bounce in My Step.

That Sad Feeling

When Sad Feelings creep into Your Heart
Know that all Your anger is gone
And You are near Peace
Let there be Sadness
For it shall bring a clear understanding
Of what You have lost
And what you have left
Build on it
I shall be Your Support
Together we will tread these Waters.

Ice

I look in your eyes
Cold and Shiny
Like a sheet of Ice.
I know you have cried for Me
and in doing so cried for Yourself
The Me that you have cried for
Stands right before You
Hug Me and hold Me
Don't Let Me get away.
Melt this Ice with Your Loving Heart.

Time

So You want more Time to sort this out
I thought
(and here is the catch)
Knowing very well that Human Thought is limited
I still thought
That we decided to End Time between Us
We decided that Time is a dimension created by Mankind
And we are better off throwing away our Watches and Sun Dials
We will gain nothing from waiting for more time
When our now is Slipping By.

Proposal

We evolved from the Jungles
With all Our faculties in full Gear
It was an Unstoppable March
Language, Thinking, Philosophy, Science
All Have Brought us where we are today
So different from other Animals
We stand in Line for everything
Want everything
Develop new Things
Our Thoughts define our Limits
Our Achievements and our Frustrations
Happiness and Sadness are emotions that only Humans have.
I may be wrong
But Here we are no better than other Animals

Here is my Proposal
I propose that we Learn from our Mistakes
The Time has come to start moving back
Into what we evolved from
Time to start giving up these things
From Costco to Lowe's to Grocery stores
No more standing in Lines
No more wants and desires
Lets live in Herds
and not in Individual Mansions
Lets give up Philosophy, Poetry and Religion
Lets give up Language
and Thoughts
Lets stop evolving.

True Me

I often get this feeling
That living is much more than what I am doing
That I should be following my passions
and not my small desires
I would like to stand still
In the midst of everybody rushing here and there
And slowly and slowly
My Layers of artificial existence would fall off
A true me would  then emerge

Free Man

A fly takes off
From the WingTip of a plane
As the Engines start to roar
I sit inside
Strapped to my seat
I am a free Man
Bound by my own Will
You think You control me
Go on Live in this Illusion.

Entertain Me

I am sitting Watching the Grammy's
And this feeling hits me Again
In fact I don't think it ever left me
It just fades into the background
You can look at me and call me Depressed
And I know that this is no way to live
But right now at this very moment
A Human Being is dying a Preventable Death
And we are lost in the Bliss of Music
And the Glitter and the Laughter
Will we as Humanity
Ever be able to bridge this divide.
Will I be able to connect the Dots of this life
and Sleep contended
Knowing I did all I could
Let me start by turning the TV off
I propose to Ban Entertainment
for all it does is corrupt my soul.

Self Help

From Detroit to Paris
Paris to Delhi
From Mona Lisa
To the Taj-Mahal
One thing is Crystal Clear
Everything is Superficial
Looks decide how far you get in Life
All Books are judged by their cover
If a Beautiful Face is found Wanting
Their are other Faces around
That is Why
I have always kept this refuge
Safe Inside me
I turn to myself
Dejected by the Shallowness
But my Heart is Empty

Liberation

So Why are you sitting in a corner crying
You asked me as You walked towards me.
That is when I did it
I took out a handgun
And shot You Thrice
Through your Heart
The Heart that was once filled with Love
Is filled with Poison now
No don't look at me so shocked
You needed to be liberated
And I was the only one who could see that.

Ruins

Driving by
I had this urge to stop
Those Ruins with the dull decaying walls
Looked Lustrous to my Eyes
I walked into them
Among those Cracked ceilings and twisted walls
Heard the Laughter that resonated once
Tasted the salty tears that flowed there
A sparkle under a rock catches my eye
Could it be
The Long lost necklace of my beloved
Oh My Darling
I felt your pain all over again

Gold

So this is What it Comes down to
Choosing between You
And all the Gold in the World
The Glitter and the Glitz or
The Look in your Eyes
I don't know what is more pure
Your Tears or the Metal
I don't know what is more heavier
The 24 Carats or your Heart
For now I will just let both melt
In the Furnace or in You
Let it all Flow
I will take my time in deciding
I have nothing to lose.
