The Poet in me - 2

Dime, Time, Shine

Every dime,

is a thing of time,

earning is a swine.

I spend my time,

thinking of my game,

realizing how I am fine.

Am not built to cry,

however they fry,

all I do is try,

how much ever you pry,

things let me dry,

I have my pie,

I know my path to sky.

Sometimes I frown,

wondering if I missed that crown,

only till I realise it's ok, that I am grown.

Summer

Ah, this summer!

You are such a bummer.

The hopes are glimmer,

When Bengaluru rains shower.

The water from the tap simmer,

Though you make us trimmer and slimmer,

But can't bear when you hammer, you summer!

You push the couple to two ends of the bed,

You make us itchy,

You make us sweaty,

You make the Electricity bill shoot up,

All elaborate arrangements to beat the heat, falls short,

You make our mouth eternally dry.

Probably we have become too intolerant towards everything, including the seasonal weather.

We are agitated when it rains, we fret when it's cold, we grumble when it's Hot out there.

Probably we were used to the pleasant Bengaluru weather throughout the year, where all seasons were friendly.

Fear

Run for your fear, run to your fear,

Outrun the fear,

What is that you hear, in your ear,

That is making you fear, let it go dear,

Be sincere, let it not fry you brother, chill out sister.

Think through it clear, don't let it near,

Overcome your fear.

Be a player, Don't be a naysayer,

Conquer your fear, Aim for the higher.

You come here, let me tell you clear,

You are my dear, will give you my spear,

Fear makes you tire, makes you a crier,

It will burn you like a tyre,

But with your fire, you will outrun the fear, that's when people will call you Sire.

Do you have it?

Do you have it?

To kick it, to beat it, to win it.

Do you love it?

When you are at it, you earn it, you own it.

Face it, to realize you haven't got it, to make it,

Feel it, what you can commit,

Leave it, don't trick it, fool it, dupe it,

Suck it, give credit, to one who has it.

Fuck it, that's life..is it?

Water

When I need to heal, When I need to find peace, I go look for water.

When I am sad, when I need to be alone, I go find Water.

When I am happy, when I want to celebrate, I dive into the Water.

Water is a breather, water is magic, water is life.

There is Water in the tears, water in the sweat.

Flowing water in the river is refreshing, bouncing water from the Falls is energizing, water in the ocean waves is calming, water in the rains is life, Cauvery water is an emotion, Ganga water is sacred, water in the pool is - Aaj blue Hein Pani, Pani, Pani!
