Quotes and poetry by kenatingal

To love...

It's not your eyes,
It's the way you gaze,
That captures my heart.
Its not your lips,
But the subtle sensuous touch
In the words that come out,
Make me go bonkers.
It's not in your walk,
It's the way you walk towards me,
That makes me lose grip over my senses.
I am not a painter,
But your thought
Gives me a canvas
To fill with life.
I am not a writer,
But your love inspires me
To write.
I am not a hopeless romantic,
But you make me dance
To all the love songs on the radio.
I am a man hopelessly fallen in love.

Thee bliss

I am found
Neither in the fire,
Nor in the frozen.
Neither the drunken,
Nor the sober,
Can find me!
Neither in death,
Nor in life.
Neither awake, nor asleep
I am neither present, nor absent.

If you look for me on the lofty mountains
And in the valleys alike,
You may still miss.
I am the twilight sky
And the blinding lights.
I exist in war, and in peace.
Not where you look,
But in what you seek,
I shall be found,
And I am Thee bliss.

परचिम लहराने दो
आज न रोको
उम्मीदों की लहर को
फिर से उमड़ जाने दो
दबे अश्क़ों को बहाने दो
फिर से जीने की
फिर कुछ कर गुजरने की
चाहत को हवा देने दो।
जीत की गुहार लगाने को
आज फिर जी करता है
खुद से लड़ जाने को
आज फिर जी करता है
फिर से भिड़ जाने दो
मत रोको
आज फिर परचिम लहराने दो।

Deception may bring truce, but truth is conducive to peace within.

When night engulfs life, even shadows dissipate and drown us into oblivion. Nothing stays when we take that fall. It's the courage to hope in the pitch dark that makes us brave. Be brave and let's continue to hope a little longer, until the day breaks.

बातों ही बातों में हम बोल बैठे
बिन बात ही हाल-ए-दिल खोल बैठे।

वो तो किस्मत है कि उन्हें हम पर ऐतबार है,
वार्ना इस डूबती कश्ती में कौन सवार होता।

Regrets

Never regret....
The kisses, or the misses
The hellos, or the goodbyes,

Though an insane thought,
It's heartbreaks and sorrows
That makes life worth living.

A tinch of despair
Sprinkled on a lonely night
Can unveil the warrior inside.

A cup of coffee
Can cure more aches
Than a cupid's arrow.

Don't you regret
The losses that teaches
How to wade through.

Rain can bring down the roof
But it rekindles life
And that's a profound truth.

Never regret
What has passed
For it helped you grow...
