Down it comes drizzling,
As the mercy of lord bestowed upon us.
Heavier it gets,
Purifies the tallest and the stiffest tree.
It descends down,
Accompanied with the mighty gale.
Shakes the toughest trunk,
It renders flexibility.
Splitter-splatter, frills go high,
Crackly, noisy and a melody sometimes.
Hiding behind the doors,
I peep out and see no one out.
Willing to get drenched,
But a prisoner of my own soul.
Bounded in the boundaries,
Some drawn by them and some are truly mine.
The splashes don’t leave me untouched.
The droplets sprinkled on my face.
I wipe them out, they touch me once more.
A fever of freshness they inflict.
I dance merrily on my own tunes,
Breaking through the dilemmas.
But the predicament still persists.
The shower goes off, accomplishing its job,
Instilling fire in each heart.
-Namrata.
The poem was given to me by my dearest friend Namrata.

Ek kashish hai teri ankhon mein,
Ek Jadu sa hai teri baaton mein,
Madhosh kar de jo mujhe tum mein,
Wo baat hai, tere sang bitai unn raton mein.
Teri Zulfon ke saye mein khoya rahun main,
Teri Yadon mein her ghadi khoya rahun main,
Kuch iss tarah mita de aaj meri pyaas ko,
Aa, tere honthon se madd chura lun main.
Kuch pal tere ishq ke parchai me thahar jaaun,
Wo komalta hai teri mohabbat mein,
Aaj kanch ki tarah teri banhon me bikhar jaaun,
Wo Shitalta hai teri baahon mein.
Nikla tha main pyaar ki talash mein,
Thak gaya aakhir teri hi aas mein,
Kaise bhul jaaun main uss pehle chuwan ko,
Jabb tumhare haath, pehli baar thi mere haathoon mein.
Abb mere jivan mein, bass ekk hi khwahish hai,
Abb mere iss mann mein, bass ekk tamanna hai,
Tere Ishq mein main Jee lun main,
Lekar tujhe bahon mein, meri maut aa jaaye!

Cold air was blowing through the window of my bedroom, my body was feeling numb, and my skin was cold; as if I’ve been dead for a long time. I opened my eyes reluctantly, stepped out of my bed, it was dawn. I closed the window and got into my bed again. Slipping into my blanket, i picked up my cellphone and dialed a number, "The idea customer you’re calling has switched off the mobile phone."
I closed my eyes, and maybe a couple of droplets trickled down my cheeks. I spread my palms, not allowing them to fall down on the ground. Her voice echoed in my mind, “Never let your tears fall on the ground, neither this earth is strong enough to bear its pain, nor i am."
I was missing that one person so much. The previous night hadn't been so good for me and for her either. We had a few arguments and finally i hung up. I opened a diary and started reading through the lines. As i flipped through those pages, i realized more and more, how wrong i had been.
Her caring voice echoed in my mind again, “Please open and read this diary, before you start thinking i have stopped loving you, ever. This is my personal diary, I never thought i would give you this, but... i don’t know..." As i went through each and every line, i realized how much she loves me, and how much pain she had endured; just to make my wishes come true. Each and every page made me feel what she feels for me. Finally a poem, ending with "I am always with you. Never let you go."
That moment, that particular moment i wanted to run to her, and hug her so tight that i won’t have to leave her ever. That day i decided I’ll never hurt her, ever again. This time, I called her again and her phone started ringing.
She picked up the call. Before she could say anything, i finished saying,” I love you, and i won't hurt you ever again. Please don't be angry at me." in one breath.
She took a deep breath and said,” Was i angry at you? I didn't know that!"
Do you know?
When you smile you seem to be,
the most delicate angel in this world.
Like a picturesque landscape,
you take my breath away.
Do you know?
Do you know?
When you hug me,
it feels like i am in the arms of my final wish.
The calmness and the joy,
i am ready to die, a thousand death for!
Do you know?
Do you know?
when you come close to me,
your fragrance enchants my mind,
just like the most fragrant flower on this earth.
Your aroma still lingers in my mind,
long after you are gone!
Do you know?
Do you know?
Every second I'm away from you,
seem as long as hours,every hour, as days, and every day a year?
Missing and longing for you,
as a chocking diver longs for air.
Do you know?
Do you know?
When i look into your eyes,
your innocence flashes from them,
just like a dove, gentle and pure!
You make my heart throb,
like never before.
Do you know?
Do you know?
How warm i feel,
when i see the concern for me, in your eyes.
Just like a gardener, taking care of the new born buds.
so selfless, so adorable!
Do you know?
Do you know?
If god offers me,either my heart beat or you,
i shall ask for you without thinking twice,
Even if my heart beats for the last time,
it shall beat for you!
Do you know?
Do you know?
If the almighty says, to choose between your love and my breath,
I shall take my last breath,
to say,"I LOVE YOU."
Then rest in peace forever!
Do you know?
Do you know?
Do you know? Honey...?
