Dew drops slide down
Grass blades ~
Lashes gleam ~
They bathe her cheeks.
Rain blurs the window
Glass panes ~
Things blur ~
They scatter rays to beams.
Rose petals shiver in
Soft breeze ~
Sighs quiver ~
Her lips find no words.
Rivulets gurgle by
Hard rocks ~
Memories crystallize ~
Pains liquidize to vanish.
Thoughts intricate
as simple doodles
on unwanted pages.
Sleepy-eyed,
I admire the curves
that keep swirling.
This is insanity
but it could've been
an escape.
This is pretension
but the synonym
is survival.
And this is sanity,
not the usual,
but an abnormal one.
The irony is that
existence exists
even in non-existence.

The clouds you see
are far away,
I console myself...
Only the rain
will touch you...
Sweet words
were just sugar-coated
gumdrops ~
yes, those gumdrops ~
lemon, orange, mango ~
that you read in stories...
Later, when you
take a look at what
unfortunately remains...
Maybe, there, you'll find
Love... As bruises,
fractures, unhealed wounds...
Alas, unless you see
Noble pain first!

I wait...
For the waves to roll in~
The turbulence to set in~
Darkness to spread in my open eyes...
I need...
Them to take me away~
The clouds to be my flight~
Take me somewhere I'll never rise...
But it...
Eludes me, turns away~
Walks away and won't stop~
Unless my pain dissolves the skies...

Moonbeams
and stardust...
Dying dreams
swirl in the gust...
I let them fly
away from me...
Away, far and high,
where they can be
themselves, their own,
unchained and free...
And bygone...

You walk
In darkness,
In light...
Shadows stalk
Wherever u go,
Left or right..
And you realize
They have always
Been with you..
They materialize
When you see
Something new..
When you don't,
When it's dark
They creep beneath
Your very existence..
When you can't,
Even in light,
They exist and breathe
As you...

_The breeze whispers to the leaves,
"I love thee, I love thee..."
And I hear it in the stillness of night...
The pages beseech to my pen,
"Please make love to me..."
And I hear it in the absence of light...
The fingers graze the softness,
"I sigh for thee, I sigh for thee..."
I feel it in the stagnance of dreams...
The words reach to my eyes,
"Pray, let your choice be me..."
I reach for one but too far it seems...
The ink pot tilts and spills all over,
"I came to thee, I came to thee..."
The quill drinks up the saccharine bait...
My heart throbs for the unreachable,
"Please wait for me, oh, wait for me..."
Words stop, turn to me and... they wait...

Maybe the hovering clouds are stubborn,
Maybe I have to wait another day, another year,
Maybe the clock hands are slow to turn,
Maybe I've to spare one more smile, one more tear,
But the fire burning is a constant race,
A race to bring a smile to your face...
Maybe the glistening dews are short-living,
Maybe I've to live one beat, one moment at a time,
Maybe hurts don't stay when I'm forgiving,
Maybe I have to give one little line, one tiny rhyme,
But the beats of pain keep a constant pace,
A pace that pulls me down in the race...
Maybe your reasons are not at all like mine,
Maybe I've to forget each word, each glare of rage,
Maybe our books will never have one line,
Maybe I have to face it for every turn, every page,
But truth remains like the unbreakable lace,
The lace that keeps our bond in pace...

_Dying a bit everyday
Is my destiny...
But that being for you
Was my choice...

_Look into my eyes,
And the dark rings
That surround them,
They belong to your voice
That keeps me awake
Throughout the nights...
Listen to my heart,
Feel how it flutters,
Find how it beats on,
Count how many it skips,
They belong to your gaze
That peels my layers away...
Measure my breaths,
Their depths and how rapid,
And how torpid they are,
And how they gush and gasp,
They belong to your touch,
That sharpens my need...
Discover me, what I have
Gift-wrapped for you,
Secured, cherished and kept
Across time and distance,
Infatuations and deceptions,
Come, find me to find yourself...
