A slew of memories
Some precious, some beautiful,
Some joyful, some painful,
Some transient, some indelible,
Some loud, some blurry and inaudible
Each of them settles into my soul
Like a fine layer of dust on the sill,
And become a part of the person that is me
An ever changing landscape, as life will always be !-
It brings back every cherished memory,
Making me smile and sometimes cry;
It feels like the recent silence never existed
Making me believe that we are always connected !-
There are a multitude of avatars of you
Today may you be the most amazing version !-
A voice heard in memories
Dreams cherished in treasuries
No labels, no names, no strings
Just a deep ache heartbreak brings
Always a could-have-been,
Never heard, never seen;
Just a wish, a sigh, a maybe,
Poignantly never meant to be!!-
Learning to give is never too late to do
Be it love, wealth or just your time
It brings you its own brand of peace
May this day will be a giving one for you !!
Learn to give
Learn to live !-
May the monsoons bring showers of blessings
May it be the start of happy new beginnings ,
May you and yours be blessed with love and laughter
May July be the harbinger of only happiness hereafter !-
Loving someone when they do not
The most painful situation no doubt;
Yet it can be empowering too
To love is after all, is up to you
To return it is not yours to do
So value yourself and feel proud
You had the courage to say it aloud,
Unconventionally and unconditionally ;
Courage is not everyone's cup of tea!!

UNWRITTEN SCRIPT
Never meant to be,
Yet forever entwined!
No names, no labels, no ties to bind
Just an ease, unmatched and rare to find
Call it love, soulmates or destiny standing still
It is indeed rare to find one who fits this bill!

Remember the million times I waited
For you to reach out, but never did,
Perhaps, if I do not reach out
You definitely never will;
The eternal tussle between
My being only an option for you
And you the only option for me
Plays itself in my head again...
And again and again....

Awaken your thoughts
Exercise your brain
To time travel
To get lost in wonder
To unlock another mind
And open your own as you do !
To read is to feel alive
To read is a way to solve
The mysteries of life and love
