KAVITA

आंखों में लेकर प्यार भरे जाम आ गयी,
था जिसका इन्तेज़ार वही शाम आ गयी....

तनहा थी रात,सूनी फिजा,दिल उदास था,
ऐसे में तेरी याद बड़े काम आ गयी....

ख़ुद से भी जो छिपाई थी,
वो बात कैसे सर-ऐ-आम आ गयी....

आने न देते थे कभी इस दिल में आरजू,
पर क्या करें के लेते ही तेरा नाम आ गयी.....

समीर घावरी

I am .....

I'm the road & i'm the traveller,
I'm the gravel & i'm the leveller.

I'm the young & i'm the old,
I'm the story yet to be told.

I'm the pain & i'm the pleasure,
I'm the power no one can measure.

I'm the thread & i'm the weaver,
I'm the faith in the heart of believer.

I'm the student & i'm the teacher,
I'm the wisdom in the words of a preacher.

I'm the winner & i'm the loser,
I'm the dilemma in the mind of a choser.

I'm the beauty & i'm the brave,
I'm the serenity one wud crave.

I'm the doper & i'm the dope,
I'm the faith of vatican's pope.

I'm a friend & i'm a foe,
I'm some one u really want to know.

I'm the noise & i'm the silence,
I'm the shame in 1947's violence.

I'm the joker & i'm the joke,
I'm the mastery in tendulkar's stroke.

I'm the water & i'm the fire,
I'm the thirst of an unquenched desire.

I'm the sinner & i'm the sin,
I'm whisky, vodka & gin.

I'm the river & i'm the stream,
I'm one of your fondest dream.

I'm the bounded & i'm the free,
I'm the coolness under the shade of a tree.

I'm the will & i'm the way,
I'm the purity in sun's first ray.

I' the earth & i'm the sky,
I'm the love in every mom's eye.

I'm the culture & i'm the wild,
I'm the innocence in the eyes of a child.

I'm the playee & i'm the game,
I'm the divinity in jesus's name.

I'm the truth & i'm the lie,
I'm the hope that refuses to die.

I'm the fire, and i m the flame,
v look different & different are our names,
luk hard u'll find v r all the same.

FADING AWAY.....

I still miss you....
But not like I did before.
The intense aching I felt,
Isn't there anymore.

I still whisper your name....
Not as often as I used to.
Now it may be once,
Before the day is through.

I still hear your voice...
Replaying in my mind.
But it's fading now,
Soon silence will i find.

I still long for you....
To feel your touch.
But it's not like before,
I don't dream it as much.

I still think about you...
And wonder how you are.
But my feelings have changed,
And they don't go as far.

I still love you....
But it's just not as strong.
Because I'm letting you go now,
So we can both move on.

I still hear you say....
No one will love me like you do.
That's so hard to believe now,
After the hurt you put me through.

This will be my last goodbye..
I've nothing else to say.
Everything I felt for you,
is slowly fading away........

CRUSH

I have these feelings, deep inside
that I have to hide.

I don't know if you feel that way too
niether do i know what to do.

When we're not together, I feel uptight
When you ' r around I feel so right.

I dream about what we can do
And all the things we can pursue.

I yearn just to feel your touch,
And when you leave, I miss you so much.

I want to feel your lips against mine ,
And feel our bodies interwine.

but for now I'll love u from afar ,
& One day I'll express how special you are.

So until then I will retain this rush ,
And uptil then I'll contain my crush.

MEMORIES

Within my book of memories,
Are special thoughts of you,
And all the many nice things,
You often say and do .

There are memories of the times we've shared,
Both bright and sunny days.
There are memories of your kindness,
And your friendly thoughtful ways.

There are memories of all those notes,
we would write back and forth,
When we would just get together,
And talk of this or that.

And when I recall these memories,
As I go along life's way.
I find they grow more precious still,
With every passing day.

UNTITLED

GONE ARE THE WINDS,
GONE IS THE RAIN,
GONE ARE THE ONE'S WHO CAUSED ME PAIN,
THE ONLY THING LEFT IS THIS GOLDEN CUP,
SO FILL IT TO THE BRIM AND LETS DRINK UP....
NO MORE ARE THE FEARS,NO MORE ARE THE TEARS,
NO MORE ARE THE JOYS,NO MORE ARE THE CHEERS,
THE ONLY THING LEFT IS DEEP SOLACE,SO PLEASE COME CLOSE AND LETS EMBRACE...
THE PAIN OF JOY IS DEAR TO ME,
THE SADNESS OF LAUGHTER IS NEAR TO ME,
TO WAKE ME UP ;LET ME SLEEP,
AS THE CHILD INSIDE ME
CONTINOUS TO WEEP.......

OUR FAREWELL POEM

In ngfs this is my last year ,
leaving behind sorrow,grief,happiness and fears.
It’s time to say goodbye to all my dears.

Those 14 years of joy,happiness ,triumph in this ngfs train,
Cannot be forgotten;memories will always remain.

That big black gate which I used to skip on being late,
Is telling me today “FORGETT ME NOT”..

The school helpers who took care of us,and motherly teachers who tought,
Are telling me today “FORGETT ME NOT”.

Those tables and those chairs along with the school fairs,
My friends with whom everything I shared,
And my rivals with whom I fought ,
Are telling me today” FORGETT ME NOT”.

I remember what a mess in class we made,
and how we changed ,the school wall’s shade.

This school which made me stronger,
will now be in my life no longer.

I know I am leaving for a better future,
But going to school has become a second nature.

It will be hard ,it will be tough,
14 years were just not enough.

I might sound silly,
But it seems I am leaving my family.

In this battle between my heart and brain,
Among dilemmas,excitement and pain,
In a spider’s web I am caught,
Where the ngfs family says,
“ in life always give ur best short,
But never ever forget me,
Please , FORGETT ME NOT”.
