God comes at last, when we think he is farthest off.

Hey! I am so restless - Original by Rabindranath Tagore
Hey! I am so restless
I long for the Farthest!
Days go by one by one
I look through the window
To see if He has come –
I want His touch so very much!
O the Farthest, the huge Farthest
Your flute’s music makes me impressed
So I forget I have no wing
And this small earth is my address!
I am absent-minded!
O the huge Farthest
I am indifferent as if I am dead!
In the sunny idle day
Trees make sound and shadows play!
The sky seems like your blue eyes!
If you could come here to stay!
O the Farthest, the huge Farthest
Your flute’s music makes me impressed
So I forget my room is locked
It’s of no use to try my best!

Hand In Hand, Come Lets Love...
A dream it was, just a dream-
we were walking together with hand in hand
towards the Sun set where the sky and the earth
seemed to be holding together
you the emotional and impractical was arguing,
that they were destined to be together as we do-
me the practical with rationale was saying,
that for all eternity it can't be true;
we have walked a long way, the Sun has left the horizon
and the moon has taken his place with a gleam,
still we walked together with hand
in hand, into places unknown,
hoping to know, what's there at the end of the ends
and at the farthest of the farthest places-
each one trying to prove the other wrong, but wanna
see it for ourselves, with what's there after all-
blessed by thee, do they get to be together
or are they cursed to not to be
for all the distance we have walked together
and all the places left behind
the sky and the earth still seemed to be holding
together in the end of the ends and in the farthest
of the farthest places; so we were, holding ourselves
together with hand in hand, walking with stride to stride;
love is not there to be found or to be sought,
it is there to be lived, in every walk we walk
and every hold we hold, come what may, with hand
in hand together forever!
- to my love

Effects are made as causes
.The sun rises in the east; no,
It is the east where it rises.
The sun is the farthest in winter; no,
It is winter when it’s the farthest.
We mistake the cause for the effect.

Farthest of my Farthest Spheres
Mother launches me
Out of her womb
On to this world
Amidst flames of pain
And torrents of pain!
Mother alone
Is my star I
I spin around
In tight circles
For all my needs!
Slowly and steadily
A host of things
Fascinate my fancies
As days rush past me
Planting seeds of desires !
I kick my orbit
At its waist;
Make it elliptical
To gain easy grasp
Of far-off glitters!
Every spectacle
Weans away
My proximity to mom
Yet i near her
For all selfish needs!
An irresistible star now
Charms my eyes!
Onto a collision course
I become a wanton prey!
It tears me away
Out of gravity
Of my aged mother;
Crashes me safely
Onto its bosom!
Now my mother
No more a star -
But my planet!
And from a demanding planet
To a commanding star
I raise my status!
Near impossibility
In heavenly science;
But common occurrence
In human history!
And i keep her
As my farthest of farthest spheres!

Some Birds' Cries
There is nowhere
To escape
From the
Harshness of
This world
That is what I think
In the mountains’
Farthest
In the forest’s deepest
I still hear
Some birds’ cries
