Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.
I was stuck in this bubble, that was small and trivial.
You came and poked it right, and burst it with upheavals.
How do I thank you, for you set it right; I’m full of gratitude day and night.
Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.
You taught me much, like no one as such.
Yet I despised you, and tried slipping away.
But the need for you is immense, please don’t leave me in the lurch.
Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.
Your calculations were perfect and of far sight.
It confused me, frightened me, used all my might.
But balanced in a way, not too heavy, not too light, the burden was just right.
Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.
You are my shadow, which stayed with me when I chased the Sun.
Now I chase you and the Sun follows me.
Don’t walk away as if you don’t know me.
Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.
You are a wonder like no other, a gift divine.
So misunderstood, yet with intentions so fine.
I take your promise that you’ll follow me, if and when I get out of line.
Oh trouble, stay a little while longer, I have just started to grow fonder.

Mein reh gaya !

Tere pyaar ke saman mai, Mein reh gaya.
(I am overwhelmed by Your love)
Teri in baaho mai, wahan Mein reh gaya.
(I wish to exist where ever You exist and close to You)
Tu nahi, to jahan mai Mein reh gaya.
(If You are not there, then I am left lurching in this world)
Tu hai, to kahan Mein reh gaya.
(If "You" are there, then “I” am not there)

"May I have your attention please!"
Attention!
"May I have your attention please". For that’s all that's asked, now and for ever.
More of that. And only that. Indulge in it. Crave for it. The life revolves and rests on it.
Attention!
The name wants it, the fame wants it. The sensible and the lame want it.
Its the battery, the charger and what makes the tick and the will to strive harder.
Attention!
Its a give and take. I give you some, you give back some more.
I call you right as long as you feed me. The moment you stop, no matter what, you have deceived me.
Attention!
I am my own precious, yet I appreciate myself through your eyes.
Present the need bluntly, or with subtlety and under a cloak. But the need is the same and its not little.
Attention!
Recognized by society, respected by peers and adored by family.
The statue on display. Painted and buffed, polished and rubbed. Looking all fancy, to be kissed and hugged
Attention!
No matter how much it rains, this strip remains barren. Just like yours and those in the horizon.
Even when old, dying and withered; yet erecting remembrances to receive it long after death.
Attention!
From being a dream to observation and awareness. The journey from wanting attention to paying attention.
With many around, they can take you to the Moon. But with some time alone, can be such a boon.
Attention!
Its all very selfish, but still packaged as love.
From ‘Two’ comes attention; if ‘One’ then only love.

Easy come, easy go.
Trying so hard to be different, to 'stand out'. Trying just like everyone else and inspite of that ending up much the same.
How differently is this trial from the person in front, or the one behind? With whom are we to share the achievement?
“Love me or Leave me”. But the means to purse leave little choice between the two.
Variations are beautiful, exclusivity turns ugly. For exclusivity is as elusive as a man chasing his shadow, the dog his tail.
From attitude to attires; desperation's to desires. Name as much differently we care to but it is the same coin, some heads some tails. Assuring ourselves in the figment of exclusivity, uptill the time the coin is flipped again.
