Lets fly away

Lets fly away, you and me,
without the fear,
of our wings being slashed off.
Lets go for a journey,
in the world of shooting stars,
that leave in their wake,
a trail of melancholy.
Lets shed our tears in space,
where they float forever, like bubbles
never to return again.
Lets hop on the clouds, 
and touch the rainbow,
to convince ourselves,
that this is real world.
Lets shout out in the vastness,
our voices louder than the noise,
of trucks and horns,
and hear them fade away.
Lets race to the end of the world,
faster than the roaring bikes,
with no one on our tails.
Lets comfort ourselves,
in our own arms,
and let go the need of comfort,
that brought along the disappointment.
Lets fall asleep on the surface of the sky,
with our arms spread wide,
welcoming the morning dew.
Lets twirl and dance
without the worry of being seen 
and our hair getting stuck 
in the long spikes of steel.
Lets talk to the sun,
and ask him how he feels,
burning day and night.
Lets not trespass each others' dreams anymore,
and just dream together for once,
to get and to be never found again.
Lets fly away, you and me,
without the fear
of our wings being slashed away.

Spilled Wine And Broken Bottles

Spilled wine and broken bottles
Half torn love letters
Dusty sketches and abandoned colors
Black and white closed shutters


Faded laughter hangs around the place
The walls are marked by an old young face
But the curtains sing of arguments
And the glass doors reflect the cracks and dents


The dreams have gone for a hike on the moon
Every night they promise to return soon
The vows are still set
And grin from the shining photo frame


The sun shines through the windows 
Every moment waits and borrows
Its warmth until its dark again
To shiver through rains of disdain

Who are you

Who are you, I ask the woods
As I run through them into the dark
Trying to follow your airy lead
I run through the ivy ropes and leaves


You graze by me, swiftly, roughly,
I falter, I fall, I lift myself up,
And ask your soothing scent that hangs
Like a cloud of smoke in the air


Who are you, I plead as I swirl,
Trying to find color in water
Trying to catch clouds in my fist
Trying to fly away to the sky...


I am the dream that perches on your window
As you look for me in the world of fantasies
I am like death, inevitable,
Yet so complicated, so uncertain,
I feel you breath in my heart
It cuts through me, hurting me,
Yet I hang around you like a trance,
Never to be found, in this life...

For someone far far away

Between the shades of grey I move
walking past the shrines and graves
I paint you from my dreams 
I hear you from my thoughts
Far away yet bright like a star
You are spek of happiness bizarre
Drawing strength from you I move
Among the shades of grey and white

This was written for somebody I don't know yet am rather fond of. I hope it made him happy. :)

Tired

Embraced by the fading spring as her lone companion

For sympathy she has a broken dandelion

Walking past the familiar paths in her usual stride

She silently nursed her discredited pride

She was tired of running after shooting stars

And admiring the beauty of colorful flowers

For they, like her, faded into oblivion

Leaving everything around like a failure

The ocher sky would not bleed for her

The drifting clouds would not cry

The moon was too far to hear her out

And the tall trees would not try

Was dependence a sin, she wonders 

As the world around her crumbles

To seek a shoulder seemed foolish

And the bleak signs of hope seemed to vanish

Waiting for a stranger

You walk past me with a smile on your lips

I wonder silently if it was for me

You take a seat different from your usual one

I wish you did this to be with me

Every time you opened your mouth to say something

I prayed it would be a greeting for me

Knowing the fact that my emotions will assault me for hours

And result in swollen sleepless eyes the next day

I still try to gain your attention

I sneak a glance at you every 3^rd second

And look away the moment you move

And yet fail to understand how and why

Am I being controlled by a complete stranger?

Defeated by love

Her hurt expression burns my soul

Her withheld tears threaten to suffocate me

In a world of hypocrisy and impermanence

Where old relations are quickly given way

For the new and striking ones

Leaving the people behind them

Shattered with a handful of memories

She refuses my condolences

And rejects my company

To take refuge in her loneliness

And wait for time to heal wounds.

Sometimes I wish

Sometimes, during desperate moments I just wish you would understand the person


hidden behind the veils of laughter

and your arms would come around to comfort me

of the endless, senseless pain

caused strangely by your indifference....

Sometimes when the void threatens to consume me

And your absence takes its toll

Above everybody’s presence

I just wish that for a few moments I could call back

The times when we could talk about ourselves

Instead of the whole world around us.

Sometimes when the depth of the ocean mocks

The sea of tears held up inside me

I wish you would just appear and let me cry on your shoulder

Just for once

And let me break down oblivious

To the self erected bounds of loneliness.

Sometimes when life looks down and me and guffaws

At the moments when I neglected to care for you

When you were still there

I wish you would walk in from the doorway

And tell me that it is never too late

Sometimes when the chords of some lost song

Falls upon my ears

I close my eyes and pray that you could feel

The melancholy and for once feel the same way as I do

Sometimes when I come across happiness

I crave for your company

To make it meaningful and worth recollecting.

Sometimes when I feel that we were so meant to be

Yet always distant, separated by an invisible force

I curse myself for my helplessness

And ask for a chance to make you smile.

Sometimes when I trip across the laughing face of yours when we last met

I wish I could have somehow

Stolen that moment from the stream of time

Kept it safe in my heart forever.

Love died a thousand deaths...

Love died a thousand deaths

On the day you betrayed me
For the moment that separated us
Froze for eternity

Your fading footsteps roared in my ears
And were echoes of the dreaded end
Your cold eyes bore into mine
Crushing the trust they held for you
And left the questions unanswered
What have I done not to deserve you?

Love died a thousand deaths
On the day you betrayed me
For the sky that witnessed my torn heart
Cried for days ceaselessly
My soul trapped in the burning quagmire
Of confusion and pain howled your name
My every feeling shattered by your treachery
My every hope dampened

For love died a thousand deaths
On the day you betrayed me
The ground that bore my trembling weight
Is still afraid to let lovers walk over it
As they hold hands and dream on for a future
That may never even exist

The crumpled heap of flowers
are still lying on the fork
Where we parted ways
Never to meet again

My heart is still beating
In the hope of your return
If not forever then just moment
With the same affection reflected in your
And that can be the last thing I have to see
In this ever fateful life….

[P.S. most dramatic post of the lot, this was concieved while I was reading an update of a highly melodramic TV serial... :D]

Oh My Dear Darkness...

Oh my dear darkness, the dwelling of the cruel


Defense of the cowards and fright of the brave


I wonder what lies in your mysterious folds


What secrets your anonymity holds






You brighten the palest of lights


And cover the dirtiest of plights


And yet you are feared by the audacious


And they cower behind their lifeless swords






Your velvety depths invite me forth


As I feel lost and defeated


Condemned for no reason by the ruthless world


You give me the long lost solace






What brightness could never achieve


You accomplish in a moment as I step into you


My doubts are vanished about the known


As unknown seems more promising than ever






You absorb my pain and blood without a reply


And accept my ugliness as beauty


You caress my hands with the soft breeze


And point at the twinkling stars


For now I understand the worth of life


Is not to find the blinding brightness


But to be always able to find the stars


And love them who show the way


Through the inky darkness….
