Let Me Sleep

Crisp Bed sheet covering the mattress of a king size bed
Cosy  Pillows inviting the head to rest
Aroma of Lavender filled in the room
Trying to combat the solitude and the gloom
Stage is set for the sleep to come
And take me to with her to drift in her vacuum
Who are you holding my arms so tight
Why don’t you let me sleep and end this fight
Let me go, get out of my mind
Can’t you feel my sorrow, see my tears or are you blind
You are the voice I want to hear before I call it a night
Yet your thoughts evade my sleep, now that’s not right
Care to put your lips on mine? I permit you.
Do not interrupt sweet nothings, the giggles and talk I implore you
I get the best sleep when I am nestled in your arms
Then why do you deny me the love, the care and the warmth
Whoever you are holding me in your thoughts right now. 
Come to me, bridge this distance and take me in your arms somehow.

Relationship with Rains

Image
I wake up very early these days for my Yoga sessions, but morning today was something else..it was dark and pouring. Doing Om Chanting with my   eyes closed to the rhythm of raindrops hitting the walls of my balcony was a divine experience.. My trainer had to wake me up from my deep trance   to move forward for Asanas. There is something magical about rain. It resonates the emotions you feel and enlarge it to consume you. Like, if you are heartbroken or sad, rain can drown you in to the depth of your sorrows, but if you are happy in your heart, rain can invite you into a spontaneous dance under it’s spell on the rhythm of your laughter.   If you are in love and your partner is by your side, it can take a form of a seductress wooing you and your partner into a passion play of sensuality and romance. And if, you are in love away from your partner it can moist your eyes and at the same time, bring a smile to your face and prayer on your lips asking God to send him...

I am not a Victim of my Circumstances

Image
Every episode of Satyamev Jayte leaves me speechless, yet pumps so much blood in my heart and make me want to hug myself and feel proud of me. I see all those survivors, who faced challenges whether it was domestic violence, forced abortions, sexual molestation or humiliation due to dowry demands. But one thing prevails, that they were lost when they endured that torture but they did not succumb to it. It takes that one strong willed NO, which ends all further pain. It's a different story that the No in many cases comes after several tortures, humiliation and painful incidents..But it does come. When I look at them, who bore these tortures and have resurrected their fate, those who grew stronger than their tormentor and have healed themselves, I give a silent hug through this thin air from me to them. I have been there, luckily not in such extreme challenge but yes being violated and snatched off my self esteem and safety..And I swear to God, it was not easy. Repeated attempts...

It took me 30+ years to be this AWESOME!

So today is the youngest I will ever be in my life because come tomorrow and another year will be added to my Age.  This thought revealed some not so happy emotions from that hidden corner in my mind (or heart! Can’t make one from the other ). Am I getting old? Hair colour are not just fashion anymore. They are here to stay! I can’t help but look closely around my eyes, to find those lines. Are they wrinkles or just lines due to excessive smiling? And what about that much hyped body clock? Since I am going to be another feet up in my 30s scale, is it time to make most of the limited egg supply in my ovaries? Why do comments like, “you don’t look a day older than 24 make me want to hug and dance ? I didn’t even care how I looked when I was 24! Am I entering the time when metabolism will go downhill and I may no longer remain that skinny girl, other girls were jealous off? Should I start dressing up more responsibly now and let go of my half a dozen hot pants and 2...
