Dying fire of passion

Dying fire of passion
Shut inside my room
Shattering the window
Here I was singing out your name
Caring less about people around and afore

Is it craziness or is it insanity?
Is it witchcraft or a dark cast spell?
I feel like a ship caught in a whirlwind
Torn is the oyster from its shell.


Sitting in the balcony,sobbing in the dark
Crying out your name aloud
Wishing you were here
Waiting for your call like a lark.

You asked me, " why does it have to be extreme?"
"Why can't you be normal?"
It's you and your personaa
That sets this aria into a  phenomenal choral!

I fight away these feelings hard
Trying desperately  to stay aloof
But in comes your magical thought
Hey dear this is reality not a spoof.

Ask me to stop , I shall freeze
If you want me gone I shall leave.
But don't do it so ruthlessly
Have some pity on you and me..

Just tell me once that I meant atleast something toyou just for a fraction of a second or a relentless moment
Tell me gently  in my ears
that meeting me was not a bad omen.

Sitting in my house million miles  away
gazing in the sky.
I see a falling star but
my heart misses a beat and
 is ready to die..

You came from nowhere like a booming meteorite ,shattering my smooth life away
You put me in a spin wheel
and taught me to dance the night away

O dear, don't disappear into oblivion
don't be so cruel
This is a humble wish from me
to a dying fire of passion add no more fuel
To a dying fire of passion add no more fuel.....

_Starry Laughs_

  _Starry Laughs_ My cousin, her friend Veena, and I went on a hill station adventure that felt like a breath of fresh air, literally. Girivan, nestled in the Sahyadri ranges, proved to be a tranquil escape from the crowded chaos of other popular hill stations. Veena, our gracious host, led us to her farmhouse, and the journey up the windy and uphill roads was an experience in itself. Finally reaching her house was like stumbling upon a hidden gem—a classic Spanish villa with bold yellow walls bordered in deep red, standing proudly amid lush greenery. Veena's garden resembled a botanical wonderland, featuring an assortment of trees, from mangoes to bayleaf, palm to bananas. It was a paradise where guava, jaam, amla, peppercorn, and betel leaf creepers coexisted in harmony, creating a serene and zen-like atmosphere. Our taste buds were treated to a culinary spread by Veena's talented housekeeper. Rustic chicken gravy, sautéed dried fish (बोंबील), bhakri, and warm इंद्रायणी भ...

Not All Lights Are in the Sky!!

Travelling for me is not about ticking boxes. Not about doing ten activities in one day or chasing thrills like a reality show contestant. For me, travel is about people. The strangers who become stories. The conversations that quietly sit in your heart long after the photos are forgotten. I have already written pages about Tromsø. The lights. The snow. The frozen eyelashes. But when I look back, the real glow also came from the people we met. Like Håkon. I was sitting alone at a table in Sann Café, guarding my mushroom soup and freshly baked bread like a squirrel with winter supplies. The rest of the family had gone to order. From the corner of my eye, I had noticed the man at the next table earlier. He was enjoying a glass of Chardonnay with something called a Norwegian Sann burger. Which, let us be honest, is just a beef burger wearing a Scandinavian accent. He introduced himself. Håkon. From Tromsø originally, now living near Oslo. A teacher. In town for the annual film festival. H...

Gamboling she entered, rolicking all the way Exuding fervor and enthusiasm in each possible way. She pranced around the hall impersonating her favourite star, Letting us into her world of fantasy through the door left ajar! In came she, sashaying in a long black dress.. Throwing some groovy moves with mirth and sleek finesse . Articulate and fluent was each of her spoken line. Laced with bubbly energy flowing freely through the mine. Sober and peaceful she sat in one corner But to the music she soon transformed into a diva, needing no warner!! Her humorous prance soon became the centre of the night Transforming the party into a playful and magical sprite. The party was full of joy , fun and a big shooting gallery Lucky was I to be a part of this cheery mirthful jamboree!! Lucky was I to be a part of this cheery mirthful jamboree!!
