It has Wings






It has wings
Flies up high, but also down it swings
It change with time, It changes with people
Sometimes stable, Sometimes feeble
Sometimes with a smile, sometimes without
It is the mood, I am talking about

All that affects your mood, is just in your head
 Ask Yourself, will any of this matter ahead?
Sometimes it wouldn't matter, sometimes it would
Sometimes too bad, sometimes too good
A beam of light and at times lights-out
It is the mood, I am talking about

Umpteen issues, we need to sort
Mood has a bearing on it all, like it or not
When chirpy, scream and shout
When in tears dark room & sneak out
It is the mood I am talking about
People often call this mood swings
I say  mood has wings

EXPRESSIONS




I wish I had a face that didn't express
They would never come to know when I am under duress
They would never know what I feel
I would never have to confess..

But, then I remember what they once told me
I am the master of my expressions and my expressions don't control me
They say expressive faces work wonders
Only control them in situations of storms and thunders
They, are those who read my expressions in a spur
They know it even before my eyes are watery and blur
They are the people who love me
They say, I am the master of my expressions and my expressions don't control me


So, Finally one day I woke up and thought
Most people's expressions are just masks that remain uncaught
But It aint my business to mask and fake
I will stay who I am, for my loved ones' sake

I ask back what I wished for in my first line
I will continue to express, because my expressions shine
-Juhi

This is how I feel, Sometimes




Close yourself to the world, Sometimes
Stay alone, in your bed curled, sometimes

Purposely took the wrong train that night
I didn’t want to cry to them , knew I might

Put that ringing phone off the hook, sometimes
Hiding watery eyes behind the book. Sometimes

Too easy to pour my heart out , I feel
Lets go the rough route, lock my heart until I heal

Being a loner, Feels good, sometimes
Maybe just music, wind and my hood sometimes

Whirlpool of memories, I am drowning in it
No one is around to tug me out a bit


A dedication to Mum



Stayed up all night, by my side
Unless I was Okay and the fever would subside
Tear that fell off when you saw me hurt
Your reactions were soft only sometimes curt
For so much you gave me, I only gave you back some
I wish I could tell you, how much I love you Mum

The day I was born, your sacrifices had begun
Your sleep, your work, you had to shun
You woke up for me, before the rising sun
With a glass of milk behind me, you used to run
You comprehended those words broken and unclear
I made up stories you’d patiently hear
To hush me sleep a lullaby you would hum
I wish I could tell you how much I love you mum
