Heart Song

If you
Are the Sea

And the waves

Are your feelings

Then

I want to be

The Boat

Floating 

Touching 

You tenderly 

~

If you
Are the autumn

Then

I want to be

The empty Bench 

Watching you

Take off

The Orange dress

~

If I am 

A Reed

In your hands

Than I want you

To kiss me

Touching me

With your lips

So I can 

Let the world know

How sweet is

Your breath 

~

And if you are

A mirror

Then

I want to be

The Reflection

Appearing 

In your eyes 

~

If I am 

A daisy 

In an open field 

Under the sky

Then

I want you

To be the rain

Pouring on me

Soaking me wet

Fertilizing my roots

~

And if I am

A cherry blossom tree

Then

I want you

To stand under me

So I can wrap you

In my fragrance 

scenting you hair

decorating them

With my blossoms 

~

And if you 

Are the words

In the book

Then

I want to be

The tea in a mug

Held by the hands

Of the reader

Drinking me

As she reads you

~

And If I am

Love

Then

I want 

To reside

In your Heart

Cradling 

Your heart beat

In my arms

Kissing 

Each blood cell

Before it circulates

In your body

~

If I am

A gate

out side the house

Then

I want you to be

A rose vine 

Climbing on me

Keeping me

Scented 

With your sweet roses 

Embracing me

Day and Night

Holding me

Next to your Heart  

~

I Swear

You seems so far

And yet so near to me

I swear

I can hear

You 

Beating in my heart

Your love

So sweet

With ever lasting 

Silken taste

I swear 

I can taste

You

In my feelings

Every time

You think of me

I swear

I can see 

You

Kissing my mind

Your fingers

Have left deep impressions

In the middle of the night

I swear

I can still feel

Your hand

On my hand 

With love so deep

Down to the core of my soul

I swear

I can smell you

In that essence 

Burning deep within me

Daily Reminder

Just like a lamp needs oil to burn

So does we need the discipline 

And a constant reminder 

So to stay on the right path 

This world is like a cunning magician 

It is so entertaining and alluring 

So easy for us to get off the path and be lost 

Daily reminder is a must 

A kind of practice, 

Whether its Prayer, Ziker, or Meditation

To help us looking straight 

Towards the light house 

Thats where we all are heading 

It is highly difficult 

Not to get distracted 

By the colorful shops at both side of road 

Selling hopes, desires, and dreams, 

All in vain as they are nothing but 

Illusion, mirage, shadows and reflection 

of our own psyche

Prisoner Of Time

All I see

Is walls

Around me

I see a door

That once existed 

Among those walls

Now shut down 
Filled with bricks 

I look hard

Trying to stay focus

Trying to see behind the door

But I see nothing

Perhaps more bars 

A wall behind the door

Another enclosure 

Barbed wires 

Full of electric current 

There is no escape

No window nor wind 

No light nor sight 

Where am I ?

Why am I alone 

What kind of prison is this

Why am I in here?

There is no one around

I hear nothing

Except

Ticking of the clocks

Hanging on the walls

The Mind Of Stillness

Once upon a time

There was stillness

In the heart of stillness 

Silence was sleeping  

Dreaming 

The birth 

Of light

In that light 

Suddenly

There was movement

And stillness cracked 

Sound woke up

And started to make noise 

Tick Tak Tick Tak 

Heart began to beat

Vision appeared

Wearing Prismatic gown 

Made of colors

Drumming of heart

Became louder

As Vision started to dance

At the tune of possibilities  

Existing as probabilities  

Moments came together

Singing a song

Creating time  

Colors 

Started to reflect 

Consciousness 

Consciousness came with desire 

Colors bowed down to desire

And offered their sacrifice 

Sacrifice was accepted 

Desire took the colors 

And started to create 

Expanding consciousness 

Spreading , spilling 

Taking over 

Like a cloud 

Shading the Sea

Sun, Moon, Stars , planets 

One by one 

Universes were painted 

sprinkled with Life forms 

Galaxies after galaxies 

And It all existed 

In the Mind of Stillness 

While dreaming

A dream

Tumharii Muhabaat Ke Naam

تمہاری دلکش 
پرکشش 
تروتازہ 
تاروں جیسی 
محبت کے نام 
جو کھلے آسمان پر جب 
اپنا آنچل لہراتی ہے 
تو ہر دل میں 
خوشبو کا جھونکا 
انگڑائی لینے لگتا ہے 
 نیم  کش  آنکھوں میں 
نجانے کیسے کیسے سپنے 
جاگ اٹھتے ہیں   
آرزوئیں اپنے رقص  سے 
احساسات اور جذبات کی 
محفل سجانے لگتیں ہیں 
تمہاری پرخلوص 
پربہار محبت کے نام 
جو کسی بھی ٹوٹے ہوے دل کو 
معجزاتی مرہم لگا کر 
صحتیاب کر دیتی ہے 
انگنت رنگ لئے 
تتلیوں کے پروں پر بیٹھ کر 
پھولوں میں خوشبو تقسیم کرتی ہے 
یہ وو راز ہے 
جیسے پانے کے لئے 
ہر دل کی دھڑکن 
ساری زندگی دھڑکتی ہے 
جسے پانے کے لئے 
کاینات کی ہر شے 
صبح شام  تسبی  کرتی ہے
میں تمہاری اس مبحت کو 
ایک انمول خزانہ سمجھ کر 
اپنے دل میں محفوظ کر لوں گی 
جہاں میرے دل کی دھڑکن 
اس کی نگرانی کرے گی 
اور میری سانسیں 
اس کے محفوظ ہونے کی 
گواہی دیتی رہیں گی

Own me

Dont 

Take me wrong

Just because

I am silent

I  love you

I think of you

I want to be 

With you

Dont

Try to 

Fit me

Into the shell 

Of your ideal

I am not perfect

I have flaws 

Let me be

Dont

Erase my identity 

Turning me

Into something I am not

Taking away my originality 

Dont

Tie me down

With rope of expectations

Suffocating me

I need some space

To be with me 

Dont 

Force me 

To wear the mask

Of your liking 

I am a human with feelings

I feel sad, happy, angry, jealous 

Let me be

Let me love you

The way I know how

See me with the imperfections

Accept me just the way I am

Leave my wings free

Let me fly

And I will never fly away

Enter from my eyes

Stay in my heart

Settle in my soul

Understand me

If you want to own me

Borken Heart

Once upon a time, there was this man, just an ordinary man with ordinary heart, who fell in love with that woman, and the instant he fell in love, he became extraordinary, because now he was not just any man, he was a man in love, and that is pretty special. His heart changed and became very sensitive, he started to feel the things he wouldn’t ordinarily feel , he began to understand the language of nature, and songs of birds, he began to humm with the winds.

All of that continued till one day, he brought the rose , just like any other day, and sat on the bench waiting for her, that was not the usual day, he sat and waited till it was time for sun to settle down in its bed for the night, and so darkness took over the charge. Moon did came to visit him, but it too was very silent, as if it was sensing some thing was not right. Man just sat there with the rose in his hand, and then, his heart began to cry, as it was missing the woman too much, the sadness touched the rose , and Rose wilted right in the man’s hand, lost its fragrance.

He is now even more extra ordinary, because now he is a man in love with broken heart, when the heart broke a crack appeared, and thru that crack light entered which touched the soul, and soul awakened to the awareness of its presence. Now he can, not just understand the songs of birds and language of nature, but he can actually communicate with them, because his soul has realized it is part of every other soul.

Our Love

This is 

What our Love is

An unbroken

Chain of Moments

Filled with 

Colorful Images 

Fragrances

Sounds, smells 

Touch and much more

Sewn flawlessly 

Into a pattern

Showing

Beautiful dance 

Of a vine 

Covered with

Pink flowers

Of Morning glory

 

Kissed 

By the first ray

Of Sun

Every morning 

And sung to sleep

By the moonlight 

Every night 

Cradled 

By the soft hands

Of dreams

As we hold 

Each other

Through the night

Living

Many life times

Just looking

Into each other's eyes

Being together

Aging

gracefully 

Praising 

The beauty

Of each passing moment 

A life

Worth living

Many times over 

And over many times

Looking For

Looking for 

A shady tree

As a friend

To sit under 

And reflect

Among the falling leaves

Looking for
A song of wind
To sing along
And be touched
Deep in my heart
Tasting the flavor 
Of insanity 
Showing me
The face 
Of freedom 

Looking for 

A cloud

Filled with rain drops 

To share my tears with

Washing the surface of heart

Like the rain washes away the dirt

Looking for 

A giant bird

That can carry me

On its wings

And show me diff paths

That I can take

Leading to my final destination 

Looking for 

A flute

To learn 

How to empty myself of me

So I too can be an instrument 

Of Divine breath

Looking for 

Piece of bread

Just enough 

To sustain the walls of temple

So my soul remains safe 
While it evolve 

Looking for

A ray of sun

Thru the window

Of my heart

To shine the light

Into the eyes

Of sleeping Hope

Looking for

A dream

Where I can have

All that I need 

A dream 

That can turn to reality

When I am awaken

Promising Future

I reach with In

Deep down in my core

Touching the surface of my heart

Creating ripples 

Spreading over my Mind

Making patterns 

Of possibilities 

Many words appear 

Wearing different faces  

Looking at each other

Searching for a soulmate 

To hold hands with

Creating sentences 

Some laughing 

Others crying

Some just silently watching 

Each carrying a flower

With a fragrance of meanings 

Building  a universe 

One sentence at a time 

One meaning at a time

Completing one chapter at a time 

My destiny is being written 

Deep in my heart

Such a beautiful universe 

Filled with scented atmosphere 

I breath in this aroma 

I am being held 

So tenderly 

Kisses soft and promising 

Flashing in front of my eyes

The moments of future 

Built on this fragrant foundation 

Each brick held together

With a strong bond of Love

One Heart

She took

Each and every

Spear 

On her heart

Didnt say

A single word

He did

As he pleased 

She took

Each and every

Lie with a smile

Not telling him

She is aware 

Of

His every move

Every motive 

But when 

He threw her out

She just Left a mirror

In his bedroom

Next to his closet 

At night

When he changed

Into night cloths

Took off his shirt

He looked into the mirror

And saw 

Many spears piercing 

His own heart

May Lies

tattooed 

On his chest

Staring back at him
