Purpose

What exactly is the purpose of life?

Is it perfection for what we should strive.

Participated in the never ending struggle and constant drive,

The meaning of life I still can’t derive.

Maybe we all need to just constantly survive,

Or just protect our soul so it could then thrive.

Responsibilities are everywhere and one has to take in a dive,

I like to believe this is the only way to feel alive.

-Shivesh Gupta

When you are sad

It makes me sad when you are sad,

And smile on your face I am not able to add.

Even though the problem seems now too bad,

It won’t last for which I am glad.

You have me and I have you,

That’s all we need and you know it’s true.

Like in tulip filed bonkers goes bumble bee,

Will always try to keep you happy and glee.

Sorrow and life.

Is this world not badly messed,
Where all are finding reasons to feel blessed.

The continent looks like God’s coffee spill,

Wonder then if it was his plan or will.

Right from when we open our eyes,

It’s a mad rush to be wiser than wise.

It’s a day eat dog world they say,

To survive one must then find his own way.

Wish life came with a  manual of guide,

So to know the unimportant and to be kept aside.

Doing what I want is taking me no where,

Wonder if I even know my purpose here.

Running after my happiness I am without rest,

Then why in return I feel such a waste.

Once I was told this life is a gift,

So when this got into a tragic shift.

Maybe I should not think about it at all,

And just enjoy the crazy free fall.

Happily I must accept the joy and sorrow,

While praying for a happy and beautiful tomorrow.

Maybe then the world would seem a bit nice,

Even with all its fugility and vice.

-Shivesh Gupta

Torn we are.

Torn we are between here and there,

But it is with you I want to be everywhere.

The pain of separation with you I can share,

Other’s don’t bother and neither do they care.

The distance is not really what I fear,

But it is the thought of you not being near.

So often it’s your picture I stare,

Trying to reach you climbing some imaginary stairs.

-Shivesh

 

 

 

Not an excuse.

You say I don’t express my love anymore,

I didn’t know that we were keeping a score.

I might not say it a lot,

But in my head I repeat it non-stop.

So doesn’t matter I say it or not,

Remember you are all I have got.

I am not here to make any excuse,

Even from billion it’s you I’ll choose.

-Shivesh Gupta

 

 

How blessed I am.

Being away might make you feel frustrated,

But I promise you will never feel deserted.

Hardly now we get to talk,

So stuffs I have to say I keep in stock.

Don’t think that I don’t think about you,

I miss you at times more than few.

This distance sure can make one feel helpless,

It’s worth it as on your love has it’s bless.

-Shivesh Gupta

 

Stars and Moon.

20170629_164342

 

Since I can’t meet you soon,

I compare your beauty to stars and the moon.

Love is not something to be tied to a chain,

But staying away from you is full of pain.

Like daily comes and goes the tide,

You thought stays always by my side.

Like a shadow that to stay with you tries,

I am always around you in disguise.

-Shivesh Gupta

Memories that came.

20170628_185833

 

The splattering rains today rekindled memories few,

Like on leaves winter leaves the morning dew.

I wonder now if it’s rain there,

Hiding from me you are where.

Does rainbow there forms on ground,

And even flowers there make a giggling sound.

Are clouds there made of cotton candy,

So does eating them comes really handy.

Birds there must be of various colours,

Paint the sky does they with their valour.

Houses there must be of flower brick,

How they hold together then must be the real trick.

I wonder if about me you ever think,

Or am I now lost count of countless blink.

I wonder if it rains there,

And if that makes you remember of I am where.

The rain today brought along memories of you,

After ages also which seems new.

 

-Shivesh Gupta

Always free.

Like an idle useless old tree,

I am for you always free.

Confused I am about the time,

Like in darkness one is counting dimes.

Unless autumn when a leaf from tree fall,

You don’t need any reason to call.

So make me hear your beautiful voice,

Whenever you want it’s your choice.

-Shivesh Gupta

Always there.

So what the photos got deleted,

Our memories are now permanently created.

Don’t you ever get sad or feel hurt,

Remember you are always there in my heart.

We will click more pics this is not the end,

Those broken memories we will someday mend.

So stay happy and don’t lose that smile.

Will come to see you even if have to walk miles after mile.

-Shivesh Gupta

What a time.

What a time to be alive,

I can see your face on screen live,

I am making any kind of hype,

You look beautiful even on skype.

So what if the network is bad,

Your voice still makes me mad.

I know it’s going to be worth the wait,

Still then I am becoming desperate.

As will forward go the year,

We will get more and more near.

-Shivesh Gupta

Too much work.

20170518_122959

Little too extra you have to work,

Like in government office does a clerk.

You planned to have so much fun,

Now you work till down goes the sun,

Working might give you joy,

But please don’t forget to enjoy.

Always remember in life this theory,

Never stop making good memories.

-Shivesh Gupta

Momma Mumma Mommins Mom Mother.

Girlfriends I made quite a few,

But still my true love is for you.

We might get into arguments times quite a few,

But we both know it’s nothing new.

As a guide, mentor and always a friend,

Roles you play has no end.

Someday for all you do I wish I could repay,

But for now let me wish you Happy Mother’s Day.

-Shivesh Gupta

 

Cold and Flu.

So strongly you sneeze,

That it feels like a strong breeze.

Careless you are about your health,

You treat it like an unaccounted wealth.

Such bad you have caught a cold,

It is making you clean bowled.

I hope you fix quickly your flu and cold,

Else I will have to come and give you a scold.

– Shivesh Gupta

 (When bae has a terrible cold and flu,

And you have no idea what to do,

and you are feeling helpless without a clue.)

Because since…

20170511_080721

Since we can’t together wine and dine,

I send you poems which I try to rhyme.

Life without you feels so empty,

LIke after the meal you get no Coke but Pepsi.

I know you are there for a good cause,

But my happiness here has since been on pause.

Like every day I need that coffee filled mug,

Craving now I am for your warm hug.

-Shivesh Gupta

Everything about you

20170506_205505

So healing is your laugh,

It cuts my stress into a half.

So sweet is your voice,

It will always be my music of choice.

So cute is your nose,

Makes you look good in every pose.

So charming is your eye,

Make me want to do all sorts of vice.

So juicy are your lips,

Kissing them makes my heart do flips.

You are in every way a beauty divine,

I am so glad I can call you mine.

-Shivesh Gupta

Keeping Calm.

Always try to keep cool and calm,

People say it’s the most effective balm.

Don’t diminish your personality’s charm,

For the people who cause nothing but harm.

So even if there is in your a heart a storm,

Remember I am here like a hug that’s warm.

-Shivesh Gupta

Stuck at Work.

Give you 100% there at work,

Let not depression make you lurk.

Remember there only for a year you are stuck.

Darkness might seem to be now around the clock,

But I know you will clear this block.

My love for you I am keeping in stock,

Will give you all when we will hand in hand walk.

-Shivesh Gupta

P.S- Things you have to do to make her not feel “Home Sick”. 😀

Enjoyment!

I hope your stay there is full of enjoyment,

And you don’t end up having any kind of resentment.

I know for you it’s just not just about employment,

Too many attached with it are sentiments.

Your being safe there is my concern paramount,

After all for me it’s only your happiness that count.

Shivesh Gupta

Everything so wasted.

20170430_083842

I feel so frustrated,

As if all my bones are rusted.

Good old days now seem to be dusted,

Too much in my luck maybe I trusted.

Some might say that it’s all overhyped,

But problems I wish could just be sublimed.

Hope someday I won’t feel so disgusted,

But time already seems too much wasted.

Her presence in my life seems perfectly time,

With her support I will now ladder of success climb.

-Shivesh Gupta

Miss you so bad.

20170428_104445

I might not get to see you this year,

That’s the only thing I fear.

I miss you so badly my dear,

I always pray for you to be near.

There’s just one hurdle that has to be clear,

Then life will be smooth chilled beer.

But till then this pain we have to bear,

Thinking of all the good times to keep the heart full of cheer.

– Shivesh Gupta

Pseudo freedom.

20170426_144101

Warriors whose weapons are keyboards,

Do you realise that nation is being gored?

You justify stones being pelt,

Use of logic seems you never felt.

Some say army is causing all the trouble,

And without them troubles will disappear like bubbles. 

But when trouble knocks you call them for help, 

I wonder why is it then you yelp? 

Being misguided are these innocent youths,

Forced to behave in a manner uncouth.

A lot of responsibility comes with freedom,

It is useless without being backed by wisdom.

So shun these useless and needless demands,

The desire to take control and make command.

Instead now let’s take a stand,

To make it once again that beautiful land.

-Shivesh Gupta

 

Your hand to hold.

My love for you will increase fourfold,

The day I get to see you in white and gold.

Soon every day your hand I will get to hold,

Will hold it tight like ice cubes in a mould.

Distance makes the heart go cold,

Or so I have been told.

But this heart is made of gold,

And to you now it is sold.

-Shivesh Gupta

p.s- White and gold being traditional bridal wear in my country.

Doubt!

Doubt you on my ability to write more,

DO you think this for me is a daily chore?

These poems won’t stop till you show me the door,

So understand this is not about keeping score.

I know this might sound like a metaphor,

But for you I can write till it will fill all the bookstore.

I love you from my heart’s deepest core,

It is from there that these words for poems pour.

– Shivesh Gupta

Life?

20170421_234734What exactly is the purpose of life?

Is it perfection for what we should strive.

Participated in the never ending struggle and constant drive,

The meaning of life I still can’t derive.

Maybe we all need to just constantly survive,

Or just protect our soul so it could then thrive. 

Responsibilities are everywhere and one has to take in a dive,

I like to believe this is the only way to feel alive.  

-Shivesh Gupta

Happy with her?

Asks she if I am happy with her,

Or is it is a never ending for me a suffer?

Don’t judge me by what I online post,

They are as insignificant as a French toast.

Leading life away from you is a bit scrappy,

Maybe that’s why I sometimes behave a little haughty.

This distance sure has a lot to yet teach,

But its infinity and beyond where we have to reach.

-Shivesh Gupta

Speed Internet… Fast WiFi.

I wish we are blessed with a powerful internet,

It just helps to keep everything under set.

After a long day of work and no rest,

Speaking to you is the only thing that motivate.

Listening to your voice I hardly get,

And when I can’t it makes my eyes wet.

Waiting for the day we can hug each other every day,

Till then it’s for uninterrupted internet I pray.

-Shivesh Gupta

p.s- Perils of long distance relationship.

Where are the good days?

Ask you always when good days will come?

Staying away from you is now getting tiresome.

Looking forward to the time that won’t be so blue,

The happiness we get is not much but few.

The solution is unknown and I got no clue.

But remember the happiness is not far from due.

So let’s do the thing we only can now do,

Stick together like like a strong powerful glue.

-Shivesh Gupta

On A Mission.

Out I am on a mission,

To love you with intensity stronger than the sun.

Plan is to have so much fun,

The hangover of which cannot be undone.

With you in my life everything I have won,

Your love hit me like a car in hit and run.

Still every time I see you I get stunned,

All by your beauty and nothing and none.

-Shivesh Gupta

Beautiful you.

Like an ocean on sunshine day,

Glitters your eyes in exact same way.

Dark as forest which to explore no one dare, 

Such is dark and lustrous your hair.  

Like a music which makes people rejoice, 

So is melancholic and sweet your voice.  

I bow my head to such beauty and glow,

With a promise to love you from head to toe. 

– Shivesh Gupta

Dat Ass Though.

Blessed you are with a beautiful ass,

That can’t be ignored every time you pass.

Right and left it sways when you move,

Smooth it looks like the fly of a dove.

Round and soft it wiggles as you move,

Just a view and my heart start to groove.

A song should be played at full volume and bass,

All but nothing about your round smooth ass.

p.s- The advantage of long distance relationship- your partner can’t murder you when you do (Write) such stuff 😛

– Shivesh Gupta

Just a year.

A poem a day for the one who inspires them.

Far away that she is now, 

I don’t know to fix myself how.

Bad and sad is now situation such, 

I am missing her a little extra too much.

Instead of desperately thinking of her like fool, 

I decided to use my desperateness as tool.

Will write poems for her like a fool, 

Which will surely make her drool.

Shivesh Gupta.

The illusion of loneliness.

Loneliness is so overrated,
Can we ever be lonely even for a moment?
I think not.
In this world that’s full of chaos,
Loneliness is a luxury.
Everything around you is in conspiracy to give you company.
Everything around is a constant reminder that you can never be lonely.
The constant ticking of clock,
The song of the crickets.
This makes me wonder then,
Why people need to be lonely and alone?
Why do they carve for something that they cannot have?
Maybe the question itself is an answer.
It’s human nature to want something they cannot get.
Fact is different from what it appears.
Most people don’t want to be lonely,
They just want the illusion of loneliness.
