Happiness

Like the first monsoon rain
    that comes pouring down without hesitation
Like the baby's uninhibited laughter
    proof of a soul that couldn't be free-er
Like the mother's love unconditional
    beyond all boundaries and every fear
Like all of the above, pure, true and blessed
    is my happiness, which lately, knows no bounds! :)

Doesn't matter to me

When the clouds rake up a sorry storm,
  When they thunder up against the norm,
People crave for shelter, safety and calm.
  To me, it doesn't matter: for I've your arms, my universal balm.

When friends cheat, loot or don't care,
  When loved ones are away with no time to spare,
People brood, cry, give themselves a melancholy day.
  To me, it doesn't matter: for I've in you, my best friend in every way.

When life gets stubborn, sullen in an unforgiving way,
  When all paths close, except the ones of pain and shame,
People get disheartened, discouraged and maimed.
  To me, it doesn't matter: for I've your love, it always wins me every game.
