Dawn

illustration by 'Panchal Hitesh'

Get up from your despair, a new flair for you awaits,

get on your toes, for enough on knees, the new destination still waits.

Enough of trauma, that you silently handled,

time to rise, for, in you the art of love is kindled.

As true as, without your permission no one can hurt you,

so is it, you are the painter of your life’s own hue.

Colour your dreams with best you ever get,

for you are the designer of your own life’s set.

When you feel shattered ,stick yourself with sympathy,

But don’t compromise your goals as life gives no scope of empathy.

when you see only darkness in you life’s most beautiful lawn,

Remember one thing my friend, after  night rises the brightest dawn

What is Priceless ?

Illustration by 'Panchal Hitesh'

what is priceless?

If the world seems ruthless,

if you feel being so useless,

remember, something in you is really priceless

You may feel the worse flowing in you,

you may also feel pains, are stuck with glue,

if you feel being so useless ,

remember, something in you is really priceless.

Lonely sometimes, you may feel so low,

you may be shot, with life’s dangerous arrow,

If you feel being so useless,

remember, something in you is really priceless.

Turns will also come in your life,

 betraying sadness, disguised as happiness will stab a knife.

If you feel being so useless,

remember, something in you is really priceless.

What ever worst may be the situation,

even if life leaves you in worn condition,

If you feel being so useless,

remember, the courage in you is what is priceless.

To move on ...

illustration by 'Panchal Hitesh'

After a storm of dark cloud,

penetrated the ray of light so loud.

Every hidden and frightened creature in the mist,

came out in the light with a tight fist.

Darkness surrounded the world with a stormy bow,

after this heart throbbing hurricane, appeared a rainbow.

When in a severe condition everyone lost their hope,

maybe it was destined, as our god didn’t wanted us to elope.

The world is his garden, where flowers bloom of every kind,

even in the dilapidated, he shall never break the bind.

The amount of trust we keep in fear, is the reason to our fate,

let us give him little attention, he only requires our faith.

Similarly can I say, how much can one endure in his past,

get up on your toes as nothing in this world last. 

Be it good, bad or happiness and frown,

the signature of life always reads "to move on".

Incomplete...

Distance is destiny, yet my love is internal,

The feelings I have, I wish they weren’t eternal.

Came away from you, still the heart begs your shelter,

All your memories make me wonder, will this phase ever alter.

Loneliness only befriends me, for you are out of sight,

Why did you go away? When you knew your love was my ray of light.

Being amid a thousand, still lonely do I feel,

How can I explain to you, you are the soul to my perpetual zeal.

I can fight the whole world for your little, yet most precious smile,

I tried but could not separate, for your company makes my life worthwhile.

Tired of this world, which ponders about me, and make terrible sighs,

The world was never worthy, apart from your fascinating eyes.

Like the tempest in its cruel form, sabotaged nature’s lit,

Love is not love and life is not worthy, your absence makes them incomplete…

Shrek and Fiona

Don't cry my dad, for your single tear is as deep as ocean of love,
Don't cry my mom, for your care is as pure as a dove.
Don't cry my brothers, as your company is all I ever require,
Don't cry my sisters, as your memories are all that I can aquire. 
Today I am not going to a new house, as it was destined to be my own home,
I will also receive the same love, from his mom and dad under the soothing dome.
I thank the heaven, its keeper and its lord,
For giving me a family which is like god.
Today i promise nothing will change at all
As to love, care, accompany and cherrish everything, my soulmate will stand tall.
My loved ones, you have not just given a daughter with charisma and corona,
How can i explain you, you gifted shrek his fiona...

My Valentine...

Pull me out from my blues, such powerful are your strings,

From all my gloom my heart bloom, this is the effect your simple smile brings.

The path I walk is neither filled with thorns nor any longer rattles,

Paved are the way with the Petal of rose, abiding with you I can surmount all our life battles. 

You possess the cuteness of a teddy and courage of a bear,

Your qualities of humility, truth and honesty, always enlightens my flair.

I propose you a life full of happiness, joy, surprises and luck,

I promise to forever abide you in your pains, at least with my kisses and hug.

On this lovely day I take the privilege to ask you for a lifetime,

Will you encourage and love me forever, by being my valentine.

Ruthless Storm...

Illustration by Hitesh Panchal

Clustered is my mind, like the clouds in the darkest form,

Wild are my emotions, as if they lost their entire norm.

Runs the realization of sheer abhorrence, in my veins,

No words can sooth my life’s most excruciating pains.

You could not understand, I always perused to be decent,

May be that’s my fault, a flaw in me of being innocent.

I loved you! I wanted million moments with you to cherish,

All I expected was your love, but you made my feelings completely perish.

Tried my level best, to change myself and be the one you can be enclave,   

Tired of trying, as every time I died within, for simply being your slave.

Blur is my vision; the route is surrounded by deadly beast,

My life has become a lost way, one in the dark forest of mist.

Here again I ask the same question, to destiny in its complete form,

Will I be rescued with the ray of love, or will I be lost in this ruthless storm…
