Soulmates

Once the closest of souls ... Can slowly drift apart; The heart sinks, the mind unfolds So much to achieve, so hard to dream.

Letting go of the beloved pains a lot Maintaining a silent smile Gives me depressing thought

Come back dear, come to me Together, let's start afresh a winning spree Missing the heat, missing the cold Missing everything bout you, that gives me a jolt

My prayers for you, remain till my death, My knight in shining armour-don't forget me yet.

JOY!

Being with you, I seem to conquer the world

Moments' absence makes my world come at a still

My heart longs for the moments cherished together

The soul cries reaching out to find its mate

But, somewhere you wait

The evolvement will come

The King shall rise again

Like the eagle in the sky

Shedding all tears, the fears, the joy, the fun- leaving all behind

Starting afresh,

Ready to conquer

Like the King in the sky

Forever soaring high!

DAD

I know you keep looking for me Your strength has reduced, the voice has weakened Still, I find you as the HERO, Who saves me, shields me, Keeps me 'protected'.

I long to hear the commands once more The scoldings, the love, The strong hands, lifting me up Now, you stand looking at the mirror Counting the lines, the love for us that remains Hidden in those...

Never mind if your strength doesn't permit To bend and kiss me, I will be there for you, To whisper in your ears the three magic words... You long to hear... With my heartfelt passion I say, "Love you, BABA", come what may.

The Love That Never Was

Was he ever mine? The mind wonders. The heart seems to beat faster ... Or wants to stop.

The golden days, the laughter, Enjoying tv shows together- How he used to laugh at my dumbness Making fun of my cooking madness Waiting for me round the corner Evenings and nights with him seemed shorter

Each moment passing by, We kept on loving The madness reaching the sky The ecstasy, his breath, strong hands on mine Now, seems like a distant dream- From which I never want to awake.

The conversations stopped. So did the chats. The calls. The ripples go away, Like a shattered dream Leaving me in pain. Depressed.

He has forgotten me. Lost in HIS world. Amongst the near ones. I keep watching. Crying. Faking a smile. He, who was never mine, how can ever be mine?

Thoughts

Standing amidst the sea of dunes Just under the scorching sun Locks that burn like whips A point of no-return

Alone I stand, thirsty - For you. The eyes, the lips, the soul- Yearns for the mate. My Beloved.

The eagle soars high. So do you. Do thoughts of mine give you jolts? Can you remember the face among the crowds? A crowd following you, now grows, From ten to hundred, the hundred into millions A face far away, fading slowly The eyes that were yours only The soul, which never was mine Now, leaves the world to unite with the divine.

Some years ahead, you sit in the sun The bungalow, the car, the stick- But gone are my hands for you to hold The uncouth face, my crippled ways. But you pause in your chores And take deep breath Stand with your canvas- remembering - The Dead.

And slowly I see myself blooming with blue The strokes, the colors, the red, the love that was true The feel that you kept hidden, couldn't tell me straight Now, mixed with your tears- Becomes My picture-Perfect.

The Vicious Cycle

Sometimes, dreams make you happy

Sometimes, dreams make you sad

Stranded alone in a lonely island

The setting sun on your back,

Life tells us so many things

Of holding onto and letting go

Some prefer hugging the Death

Some, just thankful of the Breath

Just keep on searching -

For the lost soul, life, and love

Or feel relaxed basking in the sun, sitting in your lonely cove

The journey never ends.

Love comes, love goes, love finds a new home

My heart cries in empathy

As if in the womb - the unborn still fancies hearing

Of the untold stories, of inferis beneath the lake

May we all gather the courage

To get up, walk, and cross every bend

And keep on walking, falling, and walking -

To seek LIFE till the end.

Olive Oil Benefits for Hair

Do you think that the magic of olive oil is only limited to the culinary dishes? This "liquid gold" comes with a ton of benefits for your beautiful locks as well. Though you must have heard how usage of olives can increase the health of skin right from your childhood, the way it enhances the nutrition and beauty of your locks are still unknown to many. So, let's take a look about olive oil benefits can make your hair grow, shine, and remain healthy.

Benefits for hair

Some of the most common benefits of olives for hair and the hair care regime are as follows:

Benefit#1 - Brings end to trichoptilosis or split ends: Olive brings a touch of weight and moisture to the strands, especially when the hair becomes extremely dry during the winters. Take the oil in a small bowl, make it warm, and then apply gently on the scalp and the strands. The oil acts as a serum, once you shampoo and style the hair. If you apply the oil at least two to three times a day, it prevents the occurrence of split ends as well.

Benefit#2 - Drives dandruff away: Olive comes with the necessary moisture that once applied, retains the necessary moisture content for several days. Take one tablespoon of olive oil in a small bowl. Add a few drops of lemon juice and then apply the mixture gently on your scalp. Then leave it for 1 hour and after that shampoo your hair. Repeating this twice a week keeps your lovely locks dandruff free.

Benefit#3 - Manages unruly locks: If you want to stylize the unruly locks, then nothing can be more effective than using olive oil. You need to apply the oil on the strands and leave for 30 minutes. Then you can easily style the locks and make fancy flips or curls with them.

Benefit#4 - Softens the hair: If you hair such strands that are prone to be rough in texture and a bit brittle, then you need to apply the oil along the complete length of the strands. Hair care like this thrice a week would reduce the frizz, soften the locks, and give your hair a nice and soft touch.

Benefit#5 - Grows hair longer: Olive removes the additional build-up of sebum on the scalp. If sebum accumulates on the scalp, then it inhibits the growth of new hair follicles, and reduces the growth of hair. Massaging the scalp and the hair with olive oil regularly helps to make your hair grow longer and faster.

Benefit#6 - Makes hair stronger: Olive contains multiple vitamins as the constituent, so when you apply the oil on your hair, it locks the keratin present in the hair. Presence of keratin maker your hair becomes shinier and stronger.

Benefits of olive oil as a hair mask

Honey, egg, and olive oil mask: You can prepare a hair mask with olives and make sure that your strands remain healthy all the time. To prepare the mask, take a small bowl and put 2 tablespoons of the oil (you can take an amount according to the length of your hair), 1 teaspoon honey, an egg yolk and then mix these into a smooth paste. Then apply the mask onto the strands and leave for 20-25 minutes. Then rinse of the mask with a mild shampoo.

Applying this mask once in a week or if you are very busy, then at least twice in a month would create a natural shine and bounce to the hair. 

Avocado and olive oil mask: This mask has a refreshing smell and along with olive oil benefits for hair you also get to enjoy the advantages of avocados. You have to take half a part of an avocado and mix it with one teaspoon of olive oil. You need to make sure that there is no lump, so that when you rub the mixture on your hair, the avocado does not fall out. Then using your fingers, apply the mask through the strands. Then wrap your head with a shower cap or a damp towel. Leave it like that for half an hour. Then wash your hair with a gentle shampoo. You do not need to use any conditioner, as both avocado and olive come with hair conditioning properties.
