Worth The Pain....

Days turn cold,
Feelings grow old,
Lost all hold,
I search my soul…

Months pass by,
And yet I try,
Tempers fly,
I don’t know why…

Memories taunt,
Tears flaunt,
Remembrance daunts,
Time prolongs…

A battle within,
My heart’s dim,
Torpidity wins,
I hear no din…

I try to see,
What lies within me,
Find no key,
To tranquillity…

Bloody pain,
Makes me insane,
Love’s all vain,
A sure bane…

Suppressed emotions,
Need expression,
Utmost frustration,
Is my reflection…

With every setting sun,
Fresh tears come,
Lost along the run…
The devils have won…

As dreams lay shattered,
And desires get battered,
My strength I gather,
To face yet another battle…

Heartbeats hold,
Stories untold,
Moments unfold,
Memories come forth…

Every moment,
Within me frozen,
Unfazed commotion,
Season after season…

It takes a lot,
To forget a love lost…
To swallow each sob…
And smile without a throb…

And yet I trust,
Love over lust,
Hearts do crush,
Leaving behind,
A forever-fresh,
Bittersweet touch…

Valentine's Day has come and gone...i fail to understand what all the fuss is about...i mean...agreed that its a special day to express ur feelings or to revive them...but what about the rest 364 days???...moreover, when i went through all newspapers, almost all love messages were for spouces or lovers...i wonder what is it then that we share with our family, our friends?...i feel that in the course of flowing with and following the crowd, we have lost the essence of love and the way to express it....most people are stuck with the notion that Valentine's Day is meant for lovers or couples...and that it is to be celebrated with great fanfare...

....but....i feel very glad that, as always, my mom was the first to

greet me on Valentine's Day!...

...and this is a reflection of love....a love that my mom feels for me....

....just the same, love is a profound emotion that reflects so many

relations....

...whats LOVE then?....

....its Love when a mother holds her baby for the first time....

....its Love when a father gently takes his baby's hand and counts its

fingers....

....its Love when a puppy lovingly licks ur nose....

....its Love when ur friend lends u his shoulder after ur heartbreak....

....its Love when ur sister covers up ur mistake in front of mom....

....its Love when u look at him and wish for his happiness despite knowing that he'll never be urs....

....its Love when daddy hugs his daughter, wishing for her a happy new life with tears in his eyes....

....its Love when a kid sits on his grandpa's lap and listens to his favorite story for a hundredth time....

....its Love when u stop on the road on a dark cold night and give ur jumper to a shivering fragile kid....

....its Love when u ask ur teacher to explain a problem fifth time in a row and still she smiles....

Love is in....a baby's breath....a mother's touch....a father's hug....a friend's smile....a toddler's laugh....a pup's cuddle....love is in every heart that beats....
