One by one,
back aching,
age making,
every inch a furlong
lasting for how long
before every beat, any song,
let’s stop walking,
and witness million hurried steps,
forgetting their time to come
one by one, back aching,
age making, every inch….
and so on, long after you,
you and I are gone
Imagination figment
Colour pigment
Jumps and hops
Mountain tops
Deeds and sin
Glowing skin
Warm hearts
Brand new parts
Heart rise
Then…
Age arrives
Mellowness comes
Speed dims
Slow and soft
Life’s raft
Emotion grows
High and lows
Love comes
Lust goes
Mighty and highs
tire and sigh
Doesn’t matter
how you fly
Life stages
can’t deny

Born with a
diamond crusted
platinum adorned,
silver spoon
Raised by virtuosos,
masters of fame
Tricks of the trade
by best in the game
Presents always
glitter and gold
all shiny new
Nothing ever old
Life has been kind,
too kind always
Nights been generous
Sunny all days
One fine day
age arrives
energy evaporates
body survives
all limbs injured
every bone hurts
used to be dames
now death flirts
presents still shiny
chests full of gold
all lose lustre
when we feel old
Age, is the mightiest sage
Cynicism replaces rage
every moment, night
everyday is the wage
even to infinity
observe and gauge
will never understand until
your time, your page
Dear one
full of fear one
why worry
future would come
we would be same
passion may tame
But love…yes, love
would keep us warm
hand and hand
weather any storm
that daily kiss
you emboss on my lips
would last me for years
my face reflects
joyful tears
your embrace holds
million fables,
stories you told
more than enough
for my old age
my beautiful
vivacious sage
come, lie beside me
under open skies
I feel free
even stars agree
on a moonless night
your hand on my heart
what a wonderful sight
I will never lose
my drive, my thirst
of you and that smile
just one last wish
I don’t do goodbyes
please let me die first
