(to the players.. and alike)
To start with let me explain how I stumbled upon this question. I was attracted to a boy. Ignoring everybody's advice I chose to tell him rather than playing the recommended hide n seek game. There!! I made my MOVE. But I kept waiting for his that could top mine and after which I planned to rake my brain and find a better way to let him know what I felt and wait for his move again and so on. And during this entire period I realized, why am I using my brain so much?? Am I considering all this a game?? Is Love really a game?? If yes.. What part of it makes it a game?? If no.. Then why does Google shows so many results on ‘Love is a Game’??

I cry not because you left me but because,
You think we can never be together..
I cry not because I miss you but because,
I miss the person you were..
I cry not because my dreams are shattered but because,
the pieces of those broken dreams pierce my heart and it hurts..
I cry not because I am alone but because,
now nobody is there to share my loneliness..
I cry not because you are smiling but because,
I couldn't give you the smiles I always wanted to give..
I cry not because I wont be able to see or hear you but because,
your face and voice keeps coming back to my mind..
I cry not because you don't care for me now but because,
Nobody else cares for me like you did..
I cry not because you don't receive my calls anymore but because,
I miss the kisses and love you used to shower over phone..
I cry not because you don't love me now but because,
I can never love anybody like I loved you..
Still I smile with my misty-eyes, not because the tragic tale ended but..
Because it made you happy..

(that calls me every time I see it..)
I could see it from any of the large windows present on the passage between every two floors while passing by the flight of stairs in my 6-storeyed hostel. Whenever I see this lake I only wish to reach there by any means. Its hardly 40-50 steps from the backyard of my hostel, through a small gate which is always locked and there is no other way that i know of yet. I love standing by this giant window and gazing at the lovely lake for hours and hours but sadly I am always on run. Just looking at it makes me happy.. blissful beyond any measures. Its beautiful and much more than that. There are so many things that add to its charm, the birds that swim in it (which I thought were ducks until yesterday but they are not!), the patches of lotus leaves, the weeds that grow profusely, the swirls and the tiny waves that form on its surface, men fishing on their boats, the mesmerizing hill view, the greenery, a large stretch of green field (where I can run uninhibited till I am out of breath) and the muddy path that runs along the confines of the lake. At night, the lights at the other end of the lake appears to be like devil-eyes, watching over the lake. Its serenity, both during the day and night, drifts you to a dream world. Its aloofness has perhaps made it more enticing. How much I wish I could go there, The Lake that lies off the beaten track..
Maybe thats why I find the dreams that I see with my conscious and free mind to be so alluring. They give me a picture of a shangri la mysteriously beautiful and remotely out of reach. The things I crave for most, I can see them just in those dreams. Maybe one day, when I'll reach that lake, I'll start believing these dreams can also come true..

There are three things, that I would always like my life to be associated with, all gifts of nature and infinitely beautiful.. Flowers, Stars and Breeze. Unwittingly, I found a relation between this beautiful trio with the 3 "L's". This is purely my opinion and I find it amazing..
Flower Power.. Flowers, I regard, quintessence of life. I remember a poem that I read in school which compared an oak tree and a lily flower with life. The essence was that, it doesn't matter how long your life is, but how well, how fruitful, how useful your life is, not only for yourself but also for the people around. A flower, though ephemeral, fills every heart with joy and happiness. It spreads fragrance, even to the hands that crush it. When a flower blooms, bees come uninvited. When life blooms, your wishes come true. By blooming, it means when there is a perfect balance between the seen and the unseen. Our eyes become adept not only in seeing what others see but also the beauty beyond a normal vision, that remains hidden for the ones who are actually looking for it. How does it feel when a flower softly and delicately brushes your senses? A feeling very close to being alive, isn't it??
Stars of Luck.. Stars, paradigm of luck. Against the dark sky at night, the only thing that makes a difference is the presence of the stars and the moon. Moon, may not be present for half of the time but Stars are always there for you. They die to make your wishes come true. When life seems to be surrounded by the dark gloomy clouds and sorrow creeps in, there are millions of stars who are ready to shoot against them, only the thing is about the right time.. but ultimately they will and they have to..
Breeze of love.. Imagine walking on a road on a lonely night, sky filled with stars and maybe flowers along the road. A soft cool breeze blows and it enlivens all your senses. You might be enjoying the odyssey, but the breeze then suddenly makes you realise your loneliness and how much your heart gets filled with an overwhelming emotion of love. Its love in the air what I feel the breeze to be is.. As if your love just kissed you to make its presence felt..
I firmly believe, for every soul on earth, the divine trio exists without an exception. Its only about the realisation and the right moment. I wish your existence to be blessed with the magic of flowers , stars and the breeze.. :)

The Burning Rose.
An overlooked bud once, a Rose in the wild,
Dreamt of cooler summers & winters that were mild.
Plucked away one day to adorn a corner,
The Rose thought now its woe was over.
Placed in a beautiful vase, it saw moments ticking by,
But where was the weather, it always wanted to enjoy?
Everyone said the Rose was a beauty among the few
But it was waiting for its dream to come true.
The dream was the reason for the Rose to be alive,
And there was grief in its heart while people said it smiled.
Time flew away & so did its vigour
Soon it was going to lose its essence forever.
Hope still dwelled in its eyes,
Maybe there will be a better life next time....
Finally, the corner was empty,
And the Rose all withered and dried,
Now burnt in the vicious fire.....
....Of shattered dreams and broken desires.....
