The Pain Within

You lose a job, you lose a love,
you lose the ones you’re dreaming of.
Parents gone, it feels like death,
a life half-lived, a stolen breath.

No sun now shines, no flowers bloom,
just endless nights and quiet gloom.
A pain too deep for words to say,
it hides within, yet won’t decay.

The heart still beats, but not the same
it whispers loss in love’s own name.
Silent, unseen, yet burning strong 
a pain that hums life’s saddest song 

ಅಮ್ಮಾ... ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರಾಣದ ಬೆಳಕು

ಅಮ್ಮಾ ಇಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವನವೆಂದರೆ,
ಕನಸಿಲ್ಲದ ನಿದ್ರೆ, ದಾರಿಯಿಲ್ಲದ ಪಯಣ.
ಅವಳ ನಗು ನನ್ನ ಬೆಳಕು,
ಅವಳ ಮಾತು ನನ್ನ ನಡಿಗೆಗೆ ದಿಕ್ಕು.

ಅವಳು ನನ್ನ ಕಣ್ಣೀರನ್ನು ತೊಳೆದು,
ಮಳೆಬಿರುಗಾಳಿಯಲಿ ಛತ್ರಿಯಂತೆ ನಿಂತಳು.
ದಾರಿ ತಪ್ಪಿದಾಗ ಹಿಡಿದಳು ಕೈ,
ಬಿದ್ದು ಹೋದಾಗ ಎಬ್ಬಿಸಿದಳು ಪ್ರೀತಿ.

ಅವಳಿಲ್ಲದೆ ಈ ಜಗವೇ ಖಾಲಿ,
ಪ್ರತಿ ಕ್ಷಣವೂ ಕತ್ತಲೆಯ ವಾಸಿ.
ಅಮ್ಮಾ — ನೀನೆ ನನ್ನ ದೇವತೆ,
ನಿನ್ನಿಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವವು ನಿಶ್ಶಬ್ದವೇ.

ನೀ ತೋರಿಸಿದ ದಾರಿ ನನ್ನ ಬೆಳಕು,
ನೀ ನೀಡಿದ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ನನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿ.
ನಿನ್ನ ಸ್ಮರಣೆ ಎಂದೆಂದಿಗೂ ನನ್ನೊಂದಿಗೆ —
ಯಾಕೆಂದರೆ, ನಿನ್ನಿಲ್ಲದ ಜೀವನ,
ಕಲ್ಪನೆಗೂ ಅಸಾಧ್ಯ.

Miss You, Mom

 

When you were here, Mom,
The world felt gentle

Every breath was light,
Every path, a song of ease.

With you beside me,
Life bloomed in colors I didn’t know could fade.

But then, bit by bit,
You slipped into the quiet 
Like twilight stealing the edge of day.
And soon the clouds gathered,
Wrapping my world in shadow and ache.

Now, I reach for you in every silence,
And all my heart can whisper is
I miss you, I miss you…
There are no other words to say.

Maa, Heart wanna speak with you

Maa, Heart wanna speak with you,
just not about my destination, many more things to say,
You the one i choose to speak all my thoughts,
True is my heart to speak all,
True is you to hear my words with love and affection,
Maa, I miss you, you were, are my world for ever,
Though heart says few words....
But your heart hears more than I speak, more than I say..
Thatz what makes u different from all,
You are mine, you are mine maa...
Thank the god he gave u..
u are mine maa...
u are mine ...
I fight with u, never

A Prayer

Bless me god, Oh heavenly lord.

Make me blind, than viewing absurd,
Which would make me think and do wrong.

Make me dumb, than uttering those,
which would ruin my life forever.

Make me deaf, than hearing those,
which would make me cry, guilty and down.

Want to be an innocent kid holding my mothers hand,
Following her foot steps,
Its just she all around me..
She my love, my dreams, my thoughts, my life.

Bless me god, Oh heavenly lord.

Give me strength, courage to strive for my goal,
And make my mom feel proud.

Trying to heal your absence - dedicated to my mom

Eyes still searching around,
With rolling tears,without a sound.

Though heart knew, it would be in vain,
Do foolish acts, to reduce unbearable pain.

Tried to convince, impossibility of survival without thou,
You never took serious, ignored stating me as a fou,

Now, impossibilities is in front of me,
Unable to express you, my tears are true,

From day one, Its become a habit,
Awaiting your interference in all my bit.

Silently crying innermost to break my heart into pieces,
To burst out, so that I would heal your absences.
