".........You never wish me on my birthday, we hardly meet, you will never touch me I know, you don't miss me and you will never call. I could live with all that, I could die in absolute peace, I never would have shed a single teardrop, just knowing that you exist.
Then the sky darkens, the wind picks up some earthy fragrance, a beautiful movie catches my breath, a song infiltrates my heart, a few lines from an old tattered book slips through my flipping fingers, and every wall inside me come crashing down, and all I do is cry.
So many little joys, so many little moments in my life will remain unshared. You will never know...."
-Anon.

Well, HELL!

I dream
I sigh
Resigning to dissolved reason
I smile
I cry

I wait at the crux
Of our star crossed paths
You sleep
So blissfully unaware.
In foolish glory
I breathe
I believe
In this raging war
In this raging love
Everything is good
Everything is fair

So you see
More or less
My life's screwed up
More, I guess
Now, who's gonna bail me outta this cosmic mess???!!!

"the more I look into your eyes the more I get drawn towards you."

"your companionship taught me that a girl doesn't have to be an electronics engineer to be of enchantingly entertaining intellect..."

"are you an avatar of Goddess Durga?"

lest I forget them, lest they are never repeated.....very precious and life changing lines.

Dazed and confused.

...and the light had gone cold
it's rays shunting
confused
between the yellow and the black
the inside bleakly throbbed
shivering
flickering
unsure
about to give up

I blew it dead
then, just like that
this torment
had to end
someday
some way

this darkness
this unbearable peace

all this while
I was lifeless anyway

The question.

Fighting the vagaries and every norm
It lasted long and strong
Snuggled somewhere deep within
Above all that is right or wrong

What's to be done with it now
How long can it live on
How far can it travel in time
Until it's dead and gone?

Kismet

This 'I'
Entangled enmeshed
Bonded forever
Warm and safe
Freedom no never

That 'I'
The call of the road
Stirs the wild vagabond
Restlessly seeking
Peace far beyond

This world or that
It's difficult to choose
On this little query
The kismet hangs loose!

The green revolution.

They roar and rumble
The heartless robots
They groan and grumble
The shirtless hobos

The piles of brick upon a brick
Rise high into sun kissed pillars
Mutely dwarfed beneath this antic
The green endures her noisy killers

Deep within her tender soul
She decides to live again
The sky and wind become her goal
Thro' the hardness she begins to strain

Time passes slow like thousand years
A journey up thro' a tiny crack
Of pain, fear and precious tears
With dreams of standing tall over this wrack

Blinding with it's brilliant light
A single golden ray
Brought an end to the struggle and fight
And so the green did win one day...

Winter

It's been a long winter

Icicles of pain
Still hurt the eyes
The heart stands cold
And that idiotic smile
Of utter disbelief
Still spreads frozen
Across a pure liquid trust

The fire has long died
Half forgotten memories
Buried deep in the embers
Lend no warmth

It's been a long winter
It's going to last a little longer this year

You, anonymous

If you can
Name it
Claim it
Enslave me

Until then
Let it be free
And beautiful
Deep inside me

Just as I feel
With your stolen glance
Restlessly
Caressing me
