Lulling You to Sleep

Beloved, 
Did you speak with me?
Convey if I am right, in the fashion your 'wisdom' approves you of,
And if you did, here is my lullaby for you,

 I am the voice you seek, let me surround your being,
I am the bird, at the window, near which, you silently try to sleep,
I am the soul, which on your left, gazes your semblance through the night,
As it quietly weeps,
Sleep, my sweet soul,
Sleep with the belief, that it is you, who makes me whole,
Let my voice caress your being, and bathe your existence with the true love's gleam,
And as the morrow's Sun rises, You must, for me, sing,
Sleep, my sweet precious,
Worry not for the haste, 'cause hastened steps lead to falls,
But steady ones, come with a promise of promises being fulfilled,
Sleep, my sweet beloved,
With the confessions which arise from the depths of my heart and soul,
Contemplate not, beyond the nature's gift of rumination,
Be at peace, for I am still breathing, for I still exist,
Sleep, and if you may, lull me too to sleep....

The Feet in Blood !

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Her gaze is set, At the wide spread ahead, Lights glimmer, Racing motors on the road, And noises undefined, From far away; But no landscape can collate, With the bruised patches, in her heart; No motors are at par, With the speed of her hastening thoughts, And no clangor as loud, As the shrieks of her caged soul; Blaming is like, Plucking the petals,  of a blossoming flower, To take the blames, Is like being pushed, To walk bare foot on thorns; It's a puzzle, it's a jumble, Her inner self is, Disarrayed, cluttered,  It's a muddle; Those moments are no more, When she was, Besotting to his eyes; When her tears made his eyes wet, When seeing her in pain, His heart ached; She is a reflection, Of the fate's rebound, In the broken mirror; She walks, On the scattered glasses, And Oh! My feet are in blood!

A Puppet

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Born a free soul, With wings to fly, Bound she stands, Entwined in compromises Tethered are her hands with the strings of liabilities, Muddled are her steps, in the lashes of limits and boundaries; She loved once , with all her heart, The tenderness and fondness, that's doomed today; She smiles when she's sad, And cries when happy; The tiny wonder, Is her sole sustenance, All that she has won, as the fruit of love; An emotional fool, And destiny's blunder, She calls herself, The hell's wonder; She craves for that warmth, that unconditional love, A whim for those vows, a desire for that embrace, And, In the hands of time, A puppet she is, In the fate's haze!

My Brave Knight

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Handsome and pleasing, Like some prince, In a lore, A striking sight, He's my brave knight; Sanguine and certain, Commanding and sturdy, furious yet calm, Like the glistening sun, And the stars so bright, He's my brave knight; A warm embrace, A gentle heart, Resolute and steadfast, Aiming the dart, With a scrupulous sight, He's my brave knight; Audacious and fearless, Valiant in the stormy winds, And the winter's chill, The searing sun, Or the rainy nights, He dauntlessly steps forth, Heroic he is, He's my brave knight.
