Love is blind

Yeah, I was down
Smile had given way to frown
Yet sunshine lit up my face
When hopes and dreams had left me
Gone without a trace

Her beautiful tresses,till her waist
My sight, a lovely maiden graced
Saw her everyday, so calm so still
Gazing up, maybe had dreams to fulfill

Mesmerized was I, by her stance
An angel, even at a distance
No signs, not a word spoken
Yet sparks flew, of feelings unspoken

Unknowingly, I fell for the princess soon
Yet another dwarf aimed for the moon !

Hadn't hoped for what I saw
The angel, who held me in awe
Was a statue after all
How could she ever know
How I cuddled in her glow
What I felt, what I thought?
That my love wasn't a show
With eyes shut and her golden brow
She can't ever know, how tears flow!

I carved out her hazy eyes
Instead put on mine,amidst cries
Maybe someday with my eyes, she'll see
I loved her as love meant it to be
Went blind,the pain I went through
Love's blind,they say, tis true !

A pursuit

Lights are glimmering
Cars and people fill the streets
As if humming the city beats !

Footsteps,several I hear
Should I shudder in fear?
Are they friends?
Someone I cross daily at the road's bends

Emotions,they don't show
Feelings,they never seem to know
Alone, I surely don't seem
Yet each one is lost in their own dream
Indifferent however they seem
Each crave to find that's supreme

A good flourishing life,you say
Even with a pricking conscience, you pray
Yet to others as you preach,
If your heart's pure and mind is free
It will follow like a shadow,say thee

Sometimes, I wonder
The things that we crave
Are they worth the time we ponder?

I don't want to seek it
Rather, feel the warmth
Of a heart that's lit
Don't look at what it means
Live life,don't be mere machines
Pursue not a distance
Search within,justify thy existence

To feel it,its rare
Can't beg or steal it,rather share
Yesterday was just a dream
In tomorrow lies the vision
For that
Live the present with a beaming gleam
