A Deal with my Heart

When I started off, I never knew where it would go

My heart showed me the way, but the end was nowhere to know.

The path was dark, I preferred to hide

But you were holding my hand standing right beside.

I still question my destiny, wish I could live those moments more

But then my heart started questioning, from the bottom of its core.

Should I should I not, Do I do I not

Would I would I not, May I may I not.

We walk different paths, that would never ever meet

And the spaces between us are so hard to beat.

Clouds of confusion tearing my heart away

Can’t stop thinking about you, almost every other day.

Can’t stop missing, the warmth of your breadth

The soft touch of your lips, and the kiss on your neck.

Can’t stop missing, running my fingers down your hair

Holding you in my arms, for the moments were so rare.

But now the hard part comes, where I need to deal with my heart

A deal to stop thinking about you, a deal to stay apart.

I know it is painful, but I need to do it anyway

I know it is tough, I hope my heart shows me the way.

I tried a lot and kept trying, and failed miserably on my part

I still love you, I still miss you, It’s hard for me to stay apart.

With my heart I made a deal, with lot of pain and screams

That I will keep you holding in my arms, that I would meet you in my Dreams. 

Let the love grow

Meeting you, I thought would suffice 
but the crave increases manifold 
I thought it would slow down a little bit 
But no it’s love, it’s love untold 

Touching you, I thought would define 
That now my peace will be found 
Now my agonies with  be healed 
But no it’s love, it’s love unbound 

Kissing you, I thought is all I want 
But the emotions run unabated 
I try to defy my every thought 
But no it’s love, it’s love unaffected 

Holding you, I thought would prevent 
Prevent me from the thoughts of my own 
How so hard I try to resist 
But no it’s love, it’s love unknown 

Just give back my peace, just fix up my pain 
Tell this heart to slow down a bit, but all things go in vain 

Tell me how to block my heart, tell me how to calm my mind 
Tell me how to avoid this tear, but no it’s love, it goes unwind

Moments of Truth

For the glow in your eyes 
For the blush on your face 
For the sweetness of your lips 
And for the love that I trace 

For the touch of your hand 
And the closing of your eyes 
For untying those soft hair
Where the beauty really lies 

For hearing that subtle soft voice 
For seeing the smile on your face 
For keeping the arms around your waist 
In that moment when I embrace 

For the fragrance of your body 
For the beats of your heart 
For the warmth of your neck 
Wish we never go apart 

For the stutter of your lips 
For the shiver of your spine 
For panting of your breath 
When I know you are mine 

Every moment with you is precious 
Every moment without you is pain 
I wish these moments never go away 
For these Moments of Truth may never come again

Kiss Goodbye

Now is the time to go

                Don’t know when we’ll meet again

Undecided is the future

                Unknown is the pain

The craze and happiness of meeting you

                Will all end with that goodbye

Lovelorn will be my heart again

                Forlorn once you say goodbye

Now is the time to face the truth

                You are going to go your way

And I stand thinking you’ll turnaround

                But you even take my heart away

The memories and the dreams

                Are all related with that goodbye

I hate to see you go away

                I hate when you say goodbye

But our love knows no boundaries

                And we hold our hand tight

Trying to delay that last moment

                Don’t know what’s wrong or right

The peace and tranquillity of that moment

                Will all end with that goodbye

And then and there when we lock the lips

                I just die when you kiss goodbye 

One Glance to One Kiss

The journey of life, so mysteriously told 
Every dream when slowly unfolds 
I wait for her, for that one single chance 
For that special moment of one glance 

Staring at her, I forget all norms 
Dreams and imaginations start taking forms 
I wish she turns back and see me for a while 
For that special moment of one smile 

Every pulse reminds me of the fear 
Every beat of my heart I could hear 
The feeling as innocent as a turtle dove 
For that special moment of one love 

That unknown love with a covert affection 
In the crowded world we look for seclusion 
To hold that hand, we could as much 
For that special moment of one touch 

As a current, through the spine it flows 
As a fragrant breeze, when it blows 
That mystique moment, that touch as snug 
For that special moment of one hug 

Forgetting the world, now she falls in my arms 
Away from the pains, from sufferings and harms 
Then comes the moment which I wish I never miss 
And that’s the special moment of one kiss. 

I wanna be born again

Reminding me of my duties and obligations
Life is filled with these rules and regulations
Tracking my every step, tracing my every move
I can’t bear with these limitations
I wanna break free, I wanna live again
I want a new life, I wanna be born again.

Born again in a world
Where I can meet the love of my life
Where questions need not be answered
And my love becomes my wife
I wish a quick end to all this, with an all new start
I want this pain to end from the core of my heart
I wanna end this dream, I wanna live again
I want a new sunshine, I wanna be born again

I know she means everything to me
For no fault of mine, I feel so torn apart
I know we have an unspoken bond
Then why do I need to restrict my heart
I want to see into her eyes all throughout the day
I wish I could find my love in some other way
I wanna hold her hand, I wanna live again
I want the dreams to come true, I wanna be born again.

Neither you nor me

Why the world looks so different

                Why the cool breeze starts to blow

Why those flowers look so red

                And why my emotion starts to flow

Why I keep talking to the mirror

                Is it you or it’s only me

Why the world comes to a stop

                Is known to neither you nor me

Why I keep staring at those eyes

                Why the fragrance is in the air

Why my senses have all stopped working

                Still I live to dare

In the middle of the night I still lie awake

                Is it you or it’s only me

Why do I die to talk to you

                Is known to neither you nor me

Why my heart, beats so loud

                Why I wish to embrace

Why I feel taking you in my arms

                Why your beauty has that grace

Why I feel kissing you once

                Is it you or it’s only me

Why I crave to touch those lips

                Is known to neither you nor me

Why I keep stumbling on the road

                Why I wish to hold your hand

I know you would go away one day

                Still I build castles in the sand

Why I deny those all known facts

                Is it you or it’s only me

Why I wish to see you once

                Is known to neither you nor me

I'm LOST !

The roads are known to me 
And the people I’ve known 
Their faces I’ve seen before 
And the reasons which I own 
Walking on this pathway 
Every step I’ve seen 
Every moment I lived before
Memories are crystal clean 
Then she walks across me 
Sharing those mystique glances 
And I’m lost in those brown eyes 
Trying to find the subtle nuances 

I’m lost in the reflection of those eyes 
Every beat of my heart now defies 
Every moment I crave to live more 
When I’m lost in the depth of those eyes 

The walkways are known to me
The chirping birds I’ve seen before 
I’ve counted the trees on the block 
And I know there are more 
Then why do I stumble 
When I see her down the road 
Wish I could live in those eyes 
Wish I could make it my abode 
Whenever she looks at me 
I even forget to blink 
Thinking I might miss out 
To her heart I find the link 

I love being lost in those sparkling eyes 
In their every depth my destiny lies 
I hope nobody finds me ever again 
Till I’m lost in the depth of those eyes 

- Sumeet Mukherjee 

And the Eyes say it all

The rustling breeze blows through my face

                And the fragrance of love that it dissipates

A silent whisper that it says in my ear

                Those brown eyes with their subtle stare

A second glance of those brown eyes

                And all the memories I could recall

Silence stays in all the corners

                And yet the eyes say it all

Those drooping eyes devoid of sleep

                Keeping you awake in the night so deep

A night full of silent conversations

                And your heart denying the altercations

You try to hide your every emotion

                Still every hurdle out they crawl

The lips may not say anything

                But those brown eyes say it all

Those glittering eyes I’m completely mad about

                Wish they looked at me without any doubt

Their every depth I could feel

                And all those compulsions, how to deal

Just be yourself and open-up your heart

                Just take a step and make that call

Be not bother about the world

                Let those brown eyes say it all.
