Just a clue

It’s a funny feeling of trying to put myself in love
And this time around, my family is hand in glove.

Everybody around me tells me “at least give it a try”
I now ask myself the question, WHY?

There’s very little I really expect from my life partner
He should be smart and someone who can burst out with laughter

Well, honest and responsible is what he also needs to be
And that’s all I want to put it simply.

But the game ain’t all that easy,
And one may say that I am being choosy.

I realize today that all my friends have these qualifications
But never once did I consider them as options

It’s more than what I can put in words that I expect
I am looking for that “connect”


I want to be with someone who wants to explore
Be it things, food, people or a new shore


I want to be someone’s girl, spoilt and pampered
Not the one calling the shots, yet empowered

Care, trust and enthralling company is what I promise in return
And I shall never falter when it’s my turn

Promises I make few and stick to them like glue
In the search for my man, God please give me a clue.

People, times and change

Meandering through life’s hassles I flew
Meeting people all too new.

Some I love, some I hate
While still others seem a puzzle too great.

Kids I adore,
Do men I abhor?

Women are my kind,
Are bosses born to make you grind?

Friends bring a cheer to life,
Why with parents are arguments rife?

The cook at home, seems all to important,
Oh why! Is the security guard forever nonchalant?

A random colleague who keeps asking you,
And the one you like, has of you, no clue?

Often I wondered through times in the past,
How much of today, till tomorrow last.

People will pass, changing my belief
Joys will hopefully replace some grief

And strong i will be, to stand the harshest rain
Chugging along life still, like a superfast train!

Friends i miss

Friends I have many and still wanting for more,
We’ve bonded over years and know each other to the core.

It’s not the time we’ve been friends for that counts
It’s the sentiment and fervor, and to such things you can’t put amounts.

From those I met in school to the one a month ago,
They are all precious and at no cost would I want to let them go.

With some I talk intellect, with some I play,
From heated discussions, to pots of clay.

It’s friends who hold you along your times of trouble,
From wishing you luck to picking you from rubble.

Though fun and good is always the underlying intention,
At times the pranks and leg pulling may seem a botheration.

Be it studies, work, fun, or partying,
Friends are privy to all and forever happening.

Never dear God, make me choose in friends,
Never should I lose them to changing trends.

While I may not be in touch with them everyday
I do be aware of them using all the tools of today.

How I wish I could have all of them together,
Catch up with them every now and then for a chatter.

Distance, work and reasons are plenty,
And as I realize that life has no guarantee.


Missing my friends makes me feel terrible,
Meet my friends I must, as often as possible.

And like they say,
Where there is a will, there is a way.
