A MERE DREAM

-
Long distance relationships sucks. Everything becomes useless. You dream of your love to be near you even though it's never gonna happen. Here's a poem written by me on 29th August 2018.


One day, in the night
when after many days, 
I was feeling all right.

I went in my room and 
laid on the bed.
Don't know what, but 
something made me step ahead.

I came out of the house,
There was no one, rather than a mouse.
That night, it was really chill.
But also, I stood there still.

Then I thought of taking a round,
when suddenly I found
the person to whom my heart was bound.

Literally, I couldn't believe my eyes.
Finally I got him after so many tries.
This was the joy I couldn't hold
and then I silently told:

"I thought you went far away.
Then what's the reason that made you stay"?

Hearing this, he replied:
"I'll be coming from anywhere, if you say.
Distance can never come in our way".

It was such a beautiful night.
I closed my eyes and hugged him tight.
I never wanted him to be out of sight.

Thereby, I heard someone singing.
I opened my eyes and found the alarm was ringing.
and then I found myself on the bed leaning.
Shit! Bloody hell! I was dreaming.

The darkness of the night was gone.
The lights of my room were on.

I felt so secured in his arm,
the chilled night seemed to be warm.
Why did I get up hearing that stupid alarm?

All these made my heart depressed,
mood was off and mind was stressed.

I felt like crying.
Something in me was dying.
The pain was so severe,
but my heart was only one to hear.

I remembered the last time we met,
when the place and time had already been set.
And very soon, my eyes were wet.

I know that we will be meeting soon.
For my ailing heart, it would be a boon.
Slowly the tears rolled down the cheek.
There was not even a single squeak.

Now a few more drops of tears rolled.
At last I wiped them and consoled.
No! No! No! Why should I weep?
Idiot! That wasn't our last meet.



                           --KAMNA SAH





Those were the days when I used to cry daily, atleast a bazzilion times a day, just because I wasn't close to a person who was damn close to my heart.

It happens with all of us. We all lose important people. Still, we heal with time. We console ourselves. With each growing day, we learn to live with such emptiness. That's how we humans are, we learn things quickly, be it the life skills or the love of your life.

  DID THAT SNAKE BITE?  Written by me on 04 Apr 2019 I almost forgot that I wrote poetry here. I've come a long way since the last time I wrote something here. There was a time I used to write for him. Now, I don't. These days I write for my college magazine. I participate in poem writing competition (which I am forced to do). I never knew that I had such ability.  This place forcibly made me to do a lot of things. I learned painting, a lil bit more of cooking, explored myself as an orator and obviously improved myself in poetry too. I've started writing in Hindi too, which I thought would never be possible.  So, without wasting much of your time, here goes a poem which was written by me years back. Someone panicked and rung the bell! Momma ran "who's there", she yelled. Few neighbours had something to tell. I went there quickly to hear them yell. "There's a snake", someone cried. Their horror was as if someone died. Children was asked to sit at

THIS IS WHAT I NEED

-
Earlier we talked about how a girl feels. Ever thought, what she need?  Yes, of course! Everyone wants something. This something could be different for different people. But if we talk about similar situations, the needs too become similar. Every girl going through a similar situation has similar longings. This thing applies to men also.  Here, we are talking about a girl. So let's see what she wants. (This poem was written on 24 June, 2018) What I need is  love, attention and time. Ask me everyday whether I am fine. This is enough for you to be mine. Be as sweet as honey. Spend lots of money and laugh on my jokes which are not even funny. This is enough for you to be my bunny. Just make me feel that you really care. Keep on saying "don't worry, I am here". This would be enough for my heart to give you a share. Each moment I think about you. The reason is that, I have feelings for you. And I hope that you have this too. Your love and care is only my greed. This is wha

Don't Cry!

-
 Ever happened, that you cried a lot? I mean, something like 'a whole night'. Come on! every one cries. Atleast people like me cry almost evry hour. The reason could be anything. Maybe the food isn't good, mom scolded you, had a breakup with your bestie, your favourite character died in a book, you completed a beautiful book, your sister disclosed your secrets etc.  Here is a poem for the people who cry (almost everytime). I wrote this poem on 30 October, 2018. Feeling upset, angry or deprived , don't make your heart small and cry. Never think of what made you sad. Looking for the solutions won't be bad. Sadness ultimately puts you in anger. For you and others it's a sign of danger. Sadness with anger make you weak, and finally your eyes starts to leak. Let your anger go for a walk, happiness will surely make a knock. Peep in yourself and see who are you. Crying is the work which babies do. Forget everything and try to laugh. Find someone and start a talk. Sit a
