TIME


she runs
over hills, over plains,
through snow, through rains,
she runs.........................
neither to escape, nor in pursuit,
neither to defend, nor to loot,
she runs.........................
neither a warrior, nor a thief,
deaf to wails, blind to grief
she runs.........................
neither to wealth,nor to health,
neither in haste, nor in stealth
she runs.........................
of horrible beauty is her mighty race
great men cower being unable to face,
yet, she runs.........................
trip her, trap her,
catch her, bind her,
try as you might,she runs.........................
oh heartless beauty! why do you run?!
won't you wait till my task is done?
men might cry, but heedlessly she runs.........................
the wise silently watch her way,
the fools try to make her stay.
obliviously she runs.......................
hence folks don't be like everyother person i meet,
care not for the running feet,
cause you might worry and stress over your watch , but remember she runs.........................

my first crush


i thought this poem that i had written about my first crush(long back) would be an ideal start
my first crush
when i turn around and see you there,
i feel something very rare,
i want to tell you that i care,
but all i do is stand and stare...............

my friends think i am a fool,
when i tell them you are cool,
they tell me there are better ones,
but i prefer you to other funs..........

everyday i wait for you,
hoping for a glimpse or two,
i never felt like this before,
i am just not the same girl anymore..........

and then one day i saw you with her,
talking as if the world was a blur,
hot jealousy pierced through me,
when i realized n my first crush was not to be..........

my heart drooped,
my shoulders stooped,
after my first crush failed,
all other joys seemed to have paled..........

on my vehicle,one day,i went to the market,
stood there wondering where to park it,
"may i help you?" drawled a voice rich and lush,
turning around i found my second crush.
