Isn’t it amazing?
It has been just a month or more
And within such a short span of time
Our friendship has grown on such a firm line.
The way you look at me and smile
You turn around and stand still for a while
The way you speak’ the way you stare
Your eyes have so much to share.
Since the time you’ve been with me
It has been so wonderful
The brightness in your eyes hides the darkness
But yet they shine so bright.
The time stops when we are together
All sorrows hide in sinister
Great friends have great time
We won’t change with passing time.

Are you just a thought?
Or do you really exist
Because without you
I’m thoughtless.
I can’t write poems
Without the thought of you
I can’t smile endlessly
Without the smile from you.
Haven’t seen you from more than a year
But still to me you are very dear
That swing, that cycle are still there
But neither of us could stay there.
You know my thoughts
But yet you choose to speak in silence
I don’t blame you for anything
Without you I’m thoughtless.

They killed my innocence
That I had protected for so many years
They hung me down
My innocence was murdered without a sound.
It was end of it all
The end of my best part
I have lost my everything
However, I saved my soul.
I have nothing left but the soul
Everything was ruined by that phone call
Once the trust is broken
Nothing remained to be horrified.
I am crying in this deadly silence
My soul is afraid to get revealed
It’s hiding under the cover of my body
Like the stars hide in the sunlight.
I am not good at taking revenge
But I promise I will change
For my good, for your worst
You will pay the price of breaking my trust.

Where have those days gone?
Those days of ecstasy
When the wind had melody
And the trees had chirpings.
Those trees still seem to call me
They call me in a world left barricaded
Those voices echo in my ears
They leave me deaf at times.
That stone is still on my mind
Over which we had fought for the first time
Still remember that cliff and grass
Used to stand there till fifth class.
I always knew things would change
But never thought they would disappear
No road remained, no memory has changed
Can’t figure out what has brought this change.
Prachi Agrawal, 29 august 2012
Sometimes I close my eyes and drive
Just to make myself feel alive
I’m alone while doing such crazy things
But I swear you’re always on my mind.
You know I’m never alone
You’re with me in my mind
I’m so sure about you
You’ll never leave me behind.
It’s been thirteen years
And still we are the same
Five years since our ways diverged
Nothing between us has ever changed.
We both can’t go wrong together
Our friendship will stay the same forever
We’ll be this way forever and after
You have captured my soul and I have yours.

It was 3am in the morning
She woke up at the sound of shout
Again her parents were fighting
She was just five years old to understand this.
Tears were rushing through her brown eyes
Her parents had no time to see this
Her heart was buried under the ground
She was so used to this horrified sound.
Her father turned and walked away
Daughter and mother in silent dismay
Careless father lost her careful daughter
He got drunk and never returned.
That little girl has now turned sixteen
But she couldn’t forget that heart aching scene
She hates her father for what he did
He only ran away from responsibility.
From then she hates every guy
Who comes her way
She’s afraid to take any chance
Her trust had been broken once.
Prachi Agrawal, 29 may 2012
She slept in reality
But woke up in her dream
Incapable to decide
If it’s a nightmare or daydream.
It was good and it was bad
She was happy and she was sad
She had cried and rejoiced
Lived in castle, in a battle she died.
On the horseback
She rode with pride
Lost her son
She was happily horrified.
Fought like a warrior
Woman of action
Held her head high
When her death was in sight.
She fought and fought
Alas! She lost
On the battlefield of Gwalior
She lied there cold.
She had known
It was start of the end
All her courage she had blown
Against those fiends.
At last the moment came
When she slipped into another world
At last the time came
When Queen of Jhansi was no more.

I hear people say,
‘She does nothing
All the time making her mind
To waste more and more of her time.’
But they don’t understand
I drink every drop of life
Till sunset from sunrise.
After that I talk to stars
In the language of bright sparks.
I communicate with air and water
Look from my heart to this wonderful nature.
Although humans have made many obstacles
Oh! I worry for you, dear nature.
I don’t know how to stop
This pace of increasing mob.
They don’t get a single thing
Unaware that their ship is sinking.
O trees! My lovely friends
Victim of this deforesting trend
Last day, I was in school
When you took your last breath.
Dear pigeons, messengers of peace
Inhabitants of those green trees
I know you must have tried hard to save your nest
But you too were killed by those pests.
When I protest, they often ask me
Where have I lost my head?
They tell me to do something else
Other than wasting my time.
But if I’m wasting my time
What are they doing?
Wasting their lives.
I tell them, ‘I won’t give up’
They always tell me to shut up.
Yes, I’m proud to waste my time
It’s up to you
Either waste your time
Or you too choose to waste your life.

The truths and the lies
Seem to misguide
How to identify
These two aspects of life.
The lied truth And the true lie
Can’t be truly versified
They play a game with everyone
The new moon and the dark sun.
Play a game of burning fire
One of them is a liar
Burning fire burns the desire
No matter whom you hire.
Not a game of winning or losing
Anyway, it is quite amusing
A game of hide and seek
But do not try to sneak.
A game of up and down
It’ll take you round and round
Both front and back have a cover
Will you be able to discover?
The truths and lies
Seem to misguide
How to identify
These two aspects of life.

Everything comes and disappears
Then it never reappears
Leaving remarks of that part
As a sign in every heart.
Moments first flashed into my eyes
As they were saying goodbye
But I couldn’t realize
And they moved out of my sight.
Each second on my way
Time changes everyday
No matter what it is
Whether it’s the beginning or the end.
What appears today
May disappear tomorrow
And the in appearance of tomorrow
May disappear today.
