My So-Called-Best-Friend

When I was feeling low,
You smiled and hugged me tight and slow.

Your hug was always warm
But I didn't know that it would sting my heart like a bee swarm.

Your smile was really soothing
But I didn't think that you were the friend I was losing.

Because, one fine day, you stabbed my back with a knife
And I will never forget it in my life.

Later, you said sorry
But our friendship looked very blurry.

You said you hurt me by mistake
But that was a lie which made my heart break.

All you actually wanted was name and fame
And now, it looks like I'm playing the blame game.

I can forgive but I'm not able to forget
Because, the trust I had on you, makes me regret.

I could have forgetten if you were my enemy
But as a best friend, how could you back stab me?

Remeber one thing, my so-called-best-friend:
When you start winning arguments, you start losing people in the end!

Solitude

Beneath the stars in the sky,
Our train moves by.
I’m in solitude
Which, I have always pursued!
I look out at the night that is moon-lit.
Unexpectedly beside me you come and sit.
Your eyes meet mine
With a sparkling shine.
Mildly the cold breeze blows.
Only then I realise that we are sitting so close.
As a sentence or two you speak,
It makes me so much meek
And also over-whelming.
I don’t want to stop this feeling
‘Cause it seems to be very new
And forever I want this to continue.
But so soon you leave!
This makes me hard to believe
That I never again want to be in solitude
Because, I’m subdued!

My Answer.... In Silence.

Do you think I really don't care?
Actually, the hurt and the pain, my heart is not able to bear.
Nowadays, you are the only one whom I miss
But how do I tell you this?
When you pass me by, a beat, my heart skips.
When I want to talk to you, there is only movement of my lips.
All through the night I cry,
Hoping that you'll find an 'answer in my silence' before we say Good-Bye!
