The heart aches

 My heart skips a beat
She breaks into a dance
To have your attention is a treat
I'm certain I'm in a trance!

When I'm with you it's magic
I'm not myself, but much more
Cannot render logic for what I feel in my core!

You are way out of my league, so out of reach
I would conquer the terrain
If it was only distance that I had to breach

You made me ecstatic,
Had me in splits with your antics
Bestowed so much respect,
But now it's only memories to which I connect

You are perfect and will be my little secret..
I cannot make you mine, simply because I wasn't on time..
Perhaps destiny, call it fate,
Sorry my love, I was a little too late..

To the Happy Couple !

A daughters' a joy, no one can explain

She adds colour to your world that's simple and plain

She will love you the most,

None will match up or

Even come close!

From learning to walk, bicycling and books,

She gets it all from you, even her looks!

And how's mommy doin? giver her our best

Vc, pick up those diapers,

Let Mythili get some rest

You're a dad Vc, give up all your vice

Yes you're lucky, now also be nice

You have a daughter, not one but two,

How truly blessed are you!!

Memories

Some days are calm, some are torments,

I guess it's good to be grateful for every moment

Each day is a gift that is so very perfect

Why do I know what I know?

Why do I say what I say?

Somethings are better left as secrets

I wish I could get a hold of myself

Take it one day at a time

To find my calling,

Not just Scrabble words that rhyme!

I find myself wanting to go back in time,

To go all out - to live, love and jive!

To smile, to comfort, to be there for friends and family,

To simply live life happily

..And in that moment I wanna be there for you,

For in my heart, you're the one I wanna live upto

Strangers in the night

I wanna be there for you

Coz in my heart you'll always live

For the first time, in a long time

I feel good, I see the worth,

The way life's meant to be

You make me want to go back

And live my life all over

And hope that this time around

I'll meet you sooner, not later

To be able to hold you in my arms

To wanna grow old together

Can I let you know how I feel?

Would you still love me if I did?

All those years I threw away..

If I only knew you were out there..

If I had a little stardust fall off your heart and onto my path,

I would've held on and..

My heart would have no stain

My soul would know no sin

And I would've been there for you

And in my heart you'd always be .

For my guardian angels

Your words are my treasure!
You held me tight,
But didn't get near me,
I could not let go,
Though your arms were not around me.

You held me close
And it wasn't to show,
You checked on me,
I couldn't ask for more.

Every fall I fell,
I felt your strength,
How did you pick me up?
Didn't see you at length.

Words don't mean a thing, is it?
When your friends are at a distance,
It is their words that visit!

My life's in shambles and
Oh! I'm known for my rambles...
Your words from afar are very very few...
And I, with all my chatter, I still owe you...

As our distance I sadly measure,
And your kindness I clutch,
Your precious words become my treasure...
And my heart and soul you touch!

Almost there

­My heart skips a beat
