Listen

They said, "conquer" , I said i can't .
They said, "compete atleast " , I said I still can't .
They insisted me to take a challenge , I walked away .
They shouted " you can run" , I said it was stupid .
They told me to walk constant , I said i will fall .
They asked me to stand for that matter , My legs started shaking .
They asked me to crawl , I trembled more .
They closed  my eyes , I saw a dream , i was winning life , I was winning a dream .
They whispered "look you conquered", And I opened my eyes .

Insight talking
talking to you all day , all night , all the time ..
As Rumi asked us to listen.

A note to frost.

If only i was granted a wish,
Won't i ask for hearts more than minds
Won't i ask for mosques more than shrines
Won't i ask for tears more than whines 
Won't i ask for earth more than the skies
Won't i ask for meetings more than money
Won't i ask for bees more than honey
I would ask for that one last sleep
For I broke all the promises i had to keep.

The three days, I Lived with blue eyes .

What do you think it is , she asked in a soft tone .
Thinking of the answer , he fumbled , and she fumbled more ,
Fumbling like that of the ice from a frozen Leaf .
Shivering like the leaf did .

They were cold , and far .

Fumbling to say they meant it , but couldn't.

She told her about a world .
A world she never spoke about .

The world with fallen Leaves and branches with snow like a veil .
Or should I say , or should I not .

I fumble again !

Have you seen something broken and yet beautiful .
Someone in love.

Have you seen into their eyes .
They reflect the image of the wish they made , the wish staring at them , asking them to break so it fulfills .

Asking them , yet , to break more .
There's nothing more beautiful than that wish.
It stares at you with the blue eyes .
EYES !!
They did it all !!

Winters were many but , the winter she had .

Asking him to be free and meet her in the rain ..
And she stepped out and cried for the sky whispered and promised not to rain again .

What came down was snow , and his snowflakes ... !!

Meaningless?
Anything more enchanting that the meaningless stories ??

The never fulfilling wishes .
Look up they are staring !
The BLUE EYES , YET A BIT GREEN.
