Mowing The Mayor's Grass
From a feisty model to an ambitious politician
I've seen her raise the bar for herself every now and then
And I'd wonder if there's really anything she couldn't achieve
Be it a ramp walk at the Paris Fashion Week and posing for the camera
Or a fierce debate in the Parliament House in Kolkata with envying patriarchs
She'd seize the moment, she'd leave everyone absolutely speechless
It's been a rough ride with men though - from flings with journalists
To brief affairs with actors to one night stands with old perverted politicians
She isn't here to "settle". "Ambitious souls fly", she says. I nodded a 'Yes'
"So, would you be interested in mowing the Mayor's grass, tonight?", she asked
"I need a tongue to soften the insides of my legs which has become tense these days"
I was shocked but how could I say 'No', eh? I better trim my grass for the act.

Happily Schizophrenic
There's no person I've lost, there's no thing either
I just close my eyes and open, and the 'lost' is found
A verse unwritten is now dancing right in front of me
A voice suppressed by the many voices inside of me, I hear, now
You left this place - never to return, I see you sitting right next to me
Every dream was meant to bloom into reality, I'm happily schizophrenic!

Let's Cherish It
And some relationships are wired such
They get more beautiful than friendship,
They give you bliss, they inspire you much
You search for their meaning once and then stop
Beyond any romantic relationship, beyond any poetic definitions
Is this bond that we have. Let's nourish it, let's cherish it as one!

Hang In There, It's Your Time!
O, you felt it's not worth living this life? Why?
Coz you see someone all smiles and in all worldy opulence?
Coz you see someone younger reaching his milestones faster?
Coz you see they're in a relationship while you continue seeking a soul-mate?
Coz you see random exhibitions of them being intellectually powerful everytime?
Your life's made of a purpose! Hang in there, it's your time, and it's never too late..

The Divine You
I was watching you, every minute
As you practiced your sword fight
As you meditated in a lotus position
As you walked on the beach, chanting
As you spoke with all animals and birds
As you soaked in the first rains of the season
As you draped a silky Bengali six yard
As you smiled, giving away a serene vibe
I then bowed down to the Creator for creating you
And finally, I knelt in front of you singing my adoration.

A Sweet Corner In Our Hearts
You and I are dabbling, always
In our passions, our weaknesses
In our youthfulness, our madness
In our glories, our falls
In our explorations, our realizations
In our earthiness, our divinity
You and I are seeking, always
A sweet corner in our hearts

Arranged Marriages Are Fun
Why are marriages "arranged"? It's just evident out there
You get to enjoy 'legitimate' sex, you get to have some more money
Sons are taught to be dowry seekers, daughters taught to be gold diggers
And the young couples are forced to have byproducts called children
This is why Arranged Marriages are Fun coz they make you look O-so-Obedient
But truth is you cannot run away from the fact that it was just a business deal.

Never Teach 'em That
You're right, wise parents. How can you ever be wrong?
Never discuss with your teenage kids about Sex, Dating and Relationship
You may continue forcing them to marry and produce babies like roaches
But Never teach 'em that what your ancestors never taught you, 'wise' parents.

Often Strange But Pure
You've heard me confess my love for you
A love that keeps growing in maddening pace
Is it wrong to love a friend like crazy? Never!
Is it wrong to fall in love in with someone who's committed? Aha!
Should I stop loving if my intent was pure? Never!
Will I love you forever? Yes! Coz Love is often strange but pure.
