A Person Forgotten


How conveniently are people forgotten,
Those late night conversations with gossips so rotten,
Those promises of friendship lasting forever,
And classroom jokes that we always found so clever,
Those random texts when one was so drunk,
Those coffee shops and other places we hung,
The so many friendship bands exchanged,
Thinking of people (other than us) as so strange,
The making fun of others when they fell in love,
The cake pieces on birthdays in each other’s mouth we shoved
Abusing that love when they broke your friend’s heart
How easily we grew apart,
Each memory forgotten, each promise broken,
I am just that small part of your life,
Just a person that’s forgotten.

Daddy's Little Angel


When the doctor first gave you in my hand

I was mesmerized by the serene look, the pink cheeks and the brown eyes

You made my heart melt with your first cry,

If I said I didn’t love you then I’d lie.



With you little feet you danced around the house,

And with sweet voice you would sing,

Daddy is home you would let the world know

I always wondered how would I ever let you go.



I got you your first cycle and taught you how to bat,

When I first took you to the movies you fell in love with the on-screen brat,

I got scared because you were growing up,

And until yesterday your hero had always been your dad.



When someone troubled you,

You’d say my dad is superman,

But now you give them black and blues

Whenever you can.



You turned into a beautiful girl,

An exact copy of your mother,

When I told you that, you’d get angry and say

“I look like you father”.



When you turned 18 and I got you your first car,

You drove away from me way to far,

I was worried when will you come back,

You always knew patience was one thing I always lacked.



We started to drift apart,

Oneday a new life you will start,

No matter how big you grow,

You will always remain

Daddy’s little Angel, Daddy’s little Girl!



Now the day has come when I am dying,

On the hospital bed I am lying,

Then I would see you cry,

With him by your side.



That is when I’d know that

you made the right choice,

because even an angel needs a guardian

and you found the right one.



A realization now kicks in, that daddy’s little girl has grown,

And now even has children of her own,

I can peacefully die now,

But remember one thing, I will always be watching my little girl from above!

Sorry


I know there were times when you didn’t want to do it,

Just wanting me to say screw it,

But I was living in my own world,

Trying to create a whole new cult,

Unaware of what you might be going through

And when you tried to speak to me I was busy with my crew.



I was not there for you when you needed me the most,

Not even in the parties where you were the host,

I know you have cried to sleep in the nights,

Hoping that things might just turn out right,

In those lonely times your eyes searched for me,

But I was clueless of where you might be.



Walking on the roads without any aim,

You found out life was just an unfair game,

Just wanting for someone to hold you through those times,

When you just wanted to be fine,

You prayed for me to be safe,

While you yourself lived in a cave.



I am sorry for having to keep you

Waiting for so long,

And I am sorry for not being there for you

When things went so wrong.



I am Sorry!

Two Hands

In my childhood innocence I let out my hand to catch hold of one that would fit mine perfectly.
I was tired of holding hands that were bigger to me. And I found one.
 It was my best friend. Our hands intertwined so well that it seemed as if two pieces of a puzzle.

Seasons would change, we were growing old but we grew together.
Still intertwined with each other.

A lot of people tried to break this bond but our hands never left each other.
We laughed, we cried, we came through every illness and we did it all together.

People never saw one without the other.
We were two sisters from different mothers.
We celebrated each birthday and festival with each other.
There came a trying time when one's mother had to leave.
We came through that also together.
But a time came when one hand had to leave.
It hurt them both and both weeped together.
Life moves on they said and we shall find other hand.
They did but none fit like the earlier one.
Its been 18 years since the hand had found the perfect fit.
And still is the best match ever.
Cause their friendship is forever.

You Said

You said you'd stay with me forever
But now you out of the door with her
You said this love would never end
But how come you left my hand

Now I am standing alone
And there’s nowhere to go
All I’ll do is wait
For you to come back

Grab my hand
Look me in the eyes
And say
You’re still the one I love

You said you had the time of your life with me
And now how can I just let it be
You said that we would never part
But now you've broken my heart

And I’m standing alone
There’s nowhere to go
All I can do is wait
For you to come back

Grab my hand
Look me in the eyes
And say
You’re still the one I love

You said you'd dance with me on another song
But why is taking you so long
Now I say I am done
Waiting for you when you’d never come

Now if you come I’d be gone
Waited for you too long
The world crashed down in a sudden
 When you did everything you said you wouldn’t

Hand in Hand

Standing on my doorstep
Waiting for you to come
You pass me by
You didn’t even see me there

I thought that you would be busy
So I turned to go inside
That’s when I saw you with her
I hadn’t seen you like that before

Walking hand in hand
With her and kicking the sand
Flashing your best smile
You both walked a mile

I was happy because you were
Didn’t know it would pain so much
To smile when you’re around
When I knew it would never be us

You would never know that
The songs I write were for you
You are in my heart and mind
But I would do just fine

When I see you (bridge)

Walking hand in hand
With her and kicking the sand
Flashing your best smile
You both walked a mile

I cry in the night
The dreams clouded by the sight
Of you with her
But I know I won’t be fine

It’s just that I can’t cope anymore
Because something wasn’t right
I changed my thoughts
And it changed the sight

Now it’s us (bridge)

Walking hand in hand
You and me kicking the sand
Flashing your best smile
We both walked a mile.

What is it like to be a pet dog!!!!!!

 (a college classwork in 5 mins whr i worte a poetry on this topic)

Adopted by a family when I was a week old,
I was shivering out in the night out cold,
Hungry as one could be with mother no where to be seen,
Seeing my master, a little boy I beamed.

After a lot of persuasion to the family, boy took me home,
I finally has some place to call my own,
Fed for, cared for, always loved by all,
I always ran to my master when he called.

I missed my master when he went out,
He pampered me too much to ever pout,
Years went by, we grew old together,
I could never find a better master ever.

At evening he would take me out for a walk,
In our secret language we would talk,
I would never forget the days we spent,
He kept me in his heart without any rent.

Now, I am old and sick and my master is away,
All my days have turned to grey,
I will die soon, and my master will miss me,
I hope when I am gone he would find a better dog than me!
