Sleepless Nights, Restless Days
Like a creeper creeps a tree
Eating all its green, turns it pale
Allows not bearing fruits and flowers
Eats up all its health, charm and beauty
So you have my haunted love
Living every second in head mine
Not allowing sleep or thoughts divert
Close eyes, dream your dreams
Open, your images all around
In every enchanting rose
In rays of sun,
In the charm of full moon
Or the morning breeze
Sense none but you
Let me have one my own
Dreams mine or fantasies.

Lost Love
Less pain is goodbye
Breaks the heart when cry
In times she stands
Holding both your hands
Gazing at red rose
In a garden close
Takes you out of room
Pleads to pluck the bloom
I plucked, gave it to her
She took and ran
With a kiss on my cheek
Returned some hours later
Hugged me tight
With all her might
Laughed and smiled
Spoke of her love
But my heart cried
Her head on my shoulder
Thoughts elsewhere
Someone else

My whole world, YOU
So perfect as a pair, my heart and thine,
So strong as a bond, thy eyes and mine,
O goddess of beauty, thy palace my heart,
Come to me once more, forever this time,
Sit not next to me, lay head on my shoulder,
Fix fingers in my fingers and my arms around you,
Speak not, just breath, our souls will speak,
Need not we to tell, our hearts will feel,
Be with me once more, forever this time,
Not we are the part of the world and people,
My word your eyes, your world my arms,

Pakistan and India
India And Pakistan
Why is it so? I don't know,
I see in the list your name,
I feel I 'll have something from you,
not much but message to be read,
but days have passed since I have had none,
No text, no reply, no question,
Oh my bitter sweet neighbor,
I like your people and land,
Coz it's not different then mine,
We are nothing but a shade,
You ours, we yours,
Why is it so? I think I know,
If you've heard that famous saying,
Love begets love they say,
And surely we have this between.

Past
Flew with it and it took me alone,
to an unknown place of peace and beauty,
Where everyone shared every happiness of others,
And stood by them in moments of grief,
Where no one begged and no one cried,
Where kids were happy and parents in delight,
Where no one knew the art of cheating,
The men were honest thee women loyal,
The ruler was love the ruled were people,
I wanted to stay and live in that kingdom,
But, It said, 'Let's go back it's not you belong to',
My dream brought me backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Memories
Memories
How hard it is to depart,
Seeing her breathing her last,
someone whom you were a part,
In moments becomes your past,
hoping she recovers and go home,
from that dreadful deadly ailing,
How painful it is to, about, roam,
To get the divine favor and failing,
Feeling every night she calls,
sensing her soft hand on your shoulder,
making the eyes shed and the heart falls,
makes, this rain, the face colder,
But, yet o dear you live and will be there,
In my heart, to free it from every fear,

My Helen
In a garden green we sat
My hand in yours
Yours held I
Roses around
Stars in the sky
Moon in full bloom
And the gentle breeze
Hither and thither
Move the blades of grass
The fire-flies flew
Around me and you
In restless heart of mine
The passion slowly grew
Closer I got
Pressed hand tight
No more in the world
Nor the nature's sight
The numberless glowworms
Around you revolved
In beauty and the charm

You Mean To Me
Think and Think deeply of time
When you are standing and standing alone
Holding hands open for the prime
Next of kin, in the pleading tone
Not wanting to lose the hand
Remained that ever you needed to hold
Hard was for you to walk on land
Made you he walk and he made you bold
If he is your dad, that too like a friend
Precious to me, as he is to you
Oh! God I have this message to send
Give him the favor to have him forever
To respect to love to tender to serve
To win forgiveness to hold to his nerves

For My late WIFE
For my late Wife
And you my dear whenever,
I close my eyes and back I go,
They start like rain shedding tear,
With me you are not though.
Like a dream it was that nearly one year,
Come see and feel if you can,
Alone I stand seeking you far and near,
On my face the smile, hope and the pain.
Desire I a strange unattainable dream,
Would that I could take the time back,
It gives me pleasure though odd it seem,
But losing this dream my heart will crack
You know what all this is? Oh love mine,
Something to keep you alive, and keep me thine.

Heart Hurts
A lover sees his beloved
Hands in hands
Merry like a singing bird
Gives nothing but pain
May still be some relief
If his heart has belief
Not with me but is glad
With her hero, fantasy lad
Yes it hurts but little
Now think of moment
When two hearts meet
Love little errors of each
Find heaven when together
Beloved opens her heart
And Says,
Look! It needs you
Incomplete it is,
Only you can complete
Both have love in hearts
