LOST
Love left you
You left her
She left herself!

Speak Ye, Ruddy Drops
Oozing from my bleeding heart
You tiny ruddy drops of blood
Drenching my soul as you pour
Deep down from my heart’s core…
He broke my heart
Ripped it apart
And as he left my ‘tender’ hand
Did he ever care where the pieces land?
‘Morrow if he comes here to see
Tell him that am no more ME
For if my lips doth fail to utter
Tell him my life hath cleared it’s clutter!
-Raashi Hasteer
Wish I Could Hold You Till Eternity
Destiny led me to your arms
In your heart and life’s charms
Showing me the sun and stars
You made me forget my painful scars
Life wasn’t beautiful like this before
I was a vessel in search of its shore
Wandering , searching and forlorn
Baby , in you I have found my home
With utmost bliss , love and serenity
Wish I could hold you till eternity…
-Raashi Hasteer
Pour thee ! O gentle rain !
After long days of sweltering summer and pain
I see thee pour . Pour ! O gentle rain !
Thou awaken the dreamy leaves
Giving moments of respite and relief.
Birds fly back to their eyrie
After days long and weary.
I see men jump and dance
Embracing the calm , a state of trance
Men are happy and so are birds
Life is happy and so is nature
Blessed is the Earth and all its creature
In an aura of thy mystique perfume
Wettens the Earth , gets soft like a plume
The Earth is at peace and so am I
Wet I am after days hot and dry
Thy falling drops quench my thirst
Making my soul crave and lust
Pour thee ! O gentle rain !
Wash away all my heart’s pain
Cried I have , alone in my world
With tears unseen and sobs unheard
Thy drops today are some solace
When the world has left me lone
O heavens ! Thou art my secret companion
Bid thy clouds to pour more and more
To drench my soul and wipe my pain
Pour thee ! O gentle rain !
