Empty space

If you want to rip me apart my treasures

It’s okay

I don’t know if I care less

About myself, or i don’t care at all

If you want to stab me at the back

It’s okay

I’ve learnt to handle pains

And I’ve grown off them

Life!

Like falling stars

Everyday my life is falling

Maybe somewhere

But I, can’t help myself

Free

you belong to me

I’m free and I’m fun

And I’ve traveled on my own

I don’t know how long I’ll go this way

Don’t know if I’ll go at all anyway

For today, I feel alive, breathing

Under the sky, yet I don’t seem to care.  

-Dhira (8/6/12)

Oh nothing… nothing is left of us

Now it’s just the songs that bring us alive

It’s just our songs, that reminds

Old days… 

seem to have gone long ago

But I’m still stuck in yesterday

Trying hard to keep up to the pains

Lil dreams come alive

As our song plays it right

All those words I gave to you

Comes back making me think

Why do I have to watch you leave

Wasn’t it forever

But now you’re with another

I have to watch you leave me forever

Invincible Me! (this is not a poem)

Ever wonder how some people cease to move on after a break up?
it is sad and most times they don't realise it but they're actually punishing themselves.

Well, i have been there and don't even remember since how long until i realized that-

"Attachment is actually in the head!"

I had let go of a relationship a long time back, yet my mind had been sincerely attached and hence keeping me unhappy. I realised I have to ‘Actually’ let go to be happy, meaning let go of him from my mind and say goodbye to his thoughts forever.  So what if I don’t meet him, all the love has been in my mind. Hence, free my mind of all attachments.

All this while I thought I can’t live without him, but now I know the solution is not just to let go of him from my life but also from my head!

 It is only then, that I have actually moved on and stopped punishing myself. I have to keep my mind at other things. Think of a bright future, plan my way through this darkness towards sunshine!

Yellow, is not about him, it is about me being happy! No one but I alone can make me happy! So I have to love myself enough and keep me from thinking about sad things or sad people!

I am Dhira Roy and that is invincible enough! =)

Timeless hopes

As pure as a virgin may be

Her love is too true to believe

She was to wait sincerely                                                                                               

She still awaits for her time dearly.

For many may come by

To say it is crazy

All seems hazy

But to her, it will seem right

In her soul, the light is still shining bright.

However long it may be

However apart you may be

If does he ever look back,

His love awaits here sincerely

So will it, to eternity!

-dhira.

Cancer

As I watch you bleed

I die a thousand deaths myself

I wish I could help you

I wish I could keep you

But I keep holding you

As we run out of time

Wishing in every breath

God! I don’t want to lose you now

I cry

Helplessly

A state I could never change

I want to take your pain

You can’t leave me so soon

You can’t leave me in the dark

There is no moon, no sun, no stars

Don’t leave me in the dark

You are everything to me

 My only family

I could never say those until now

That I am helplessly watching you leave

If we go back in time now, lets go back in time

I’ll change all those I could to make you merry

Oh! Breathe again

One more time, please for ever more time

‘God! How could you do this??’

I yell, I scream

I feel a hole in my soul

A cut in my throat

A tear in my heart

Insanity

As I watch you leave…

I die a thousand deaths myself.

You could take with you yourself

But I have you in me, a part of me

That I’ll take with me through life

And to grave. I love you!

-dhira.

A few lines of wisdom

Jab jab dard ka badal chaya,
Jab gam ka saaya lehraya,
Jab aansu palko tak aaya,
Jab yeh tanha dil ghabraya,
humne dil ko yeh samjhaya
dil aakhir tu kyun rota hain
duniya mein yunhi hota hain!

Yeh jo gehre sannate hai
waqt ne sabko hi baante hainn,
thodda gamm hain sabka kissa
thoddi dhup hai sabka hissa,
aankhen teri bekar hi namm hain
har pal ek naya mausam hain
Kyun tu aise pal khota hai,
Dil aakhir tu kyun rota hain!

- from the most poignant bollywood film of the year 'Zindagi na milegi dobara'! (one of the few hindi movies that i could watch again) :)

INTERRUPTIONS…

We connected

Everything was perfect

Oh! Time unexpected

We were infected

(How we were infected)

Mis-led emotions

Mindful confusions

 Troubled confessions

Oh! Obsessions, thou art obsession!

How I wish to be your possession

I will be thy possession…

No connections

We have no connections

No confusion

No more delusion.
