That night...



























That night when you appeared; broken!


Torn at the window of my room,





The melody you played; weeped.


On the strings of the harp.





That night when I touched,


Your heart that oozed blood.





That night, when you hugged me tight,


Hiding away your tears; unripe.





As you teach me each night,


To play the strings of harp right.





The only melody you taught me,


Was of broken hearts and lives.





That night when you sung,


For your beloved outside.





Looking at the stars you recited her name,


Like an unfulfilled wish to the stars.





As you wrapped your wings around yourself,


Embracing her as if a dream stands in eyes.





I wished you had loved me the same


As you thought of your Aphrodite.





But I knew I cannot love an angel


A forbidden thing it is to the mankind





But I have fallen for you it seems...


A broken shattered heart; You.





Now I look at the harp untouched,


May be you have forgotten about Us.





I play the saddest melody,


Holding my tears for eternity.





Trembled my heart as it felt your brokenness,


Like it shattered in me; inside.





What is love if not felt inside,


Without a touch of light.





My darkened soul lit up,


Like a spark burning the whole forest.





And the trapped love that you evoked,


Now escapes to the world; untold.





And I wonder if it was love...


Or a curse foretold.

Just one day more....









































Just one day more....





Everyday when you kiss my hair...

I embrace that kiss to my soul...

Just one day more...
Tomorrow again...






When the birds chirp on the trees...

And dew glows on the leaves...

Just one day more...

Tomorrow again...





When the day flies wild as a wind...

You fill my every moment...

Just one day more...

Tomorrow again...





When dusk arrives with orange sky...

I sense you close near by...

Just one day more...

Tomorrow again...





The night dances in her shimmering gown...

But I stay awake, to see you sleep...

Just one day more....

Tomorrow again...





When there's no tomorrow...

Just keep me in your dreams...

I'll visit you every night...

And tell you all the while...





That love is never made...


It rises in the hearts...


In the sea, like a wave...

And carry you away...





Like a wind carries leaves...

Dry, separated from the trees...

Hearts carry love...

To each other when they meet...





Just one day more...

Tomorrow again...

I shall rise in dreams...

To wake you up...





Forever to love...

To love me.

My Shadow....








In hope of the rising sun.....

The night dances with the breeze....

Shadows dance with darkness hand in hand....

All day, lying under the feet....




How come you are not hurt dear shadow....

Under my foot the whole day.....

Sometimes behind and sometimes ahead....

Yet in darkness, you become me and I become you....



Mingling in each other You my shadow...

And I the darkness I hold in me....

You are not a shadow but me ,that oblique...

Who fights to stay alive like me....



Mirroring my reflection on the floor...

Making the floor know more....

You are not a body,yet....

You are me all the more....



You touch the ends of mine.....

Making a wish to join me back....

But not a moment I weep....

On this impossible opportunity....



In darkness, we are one....

You hide in me, I confide in You...

And what else I may choose....

You remain with me , I remain with You...



You leave me in brightness all alone...

And sometimes tease me, following me from nowhere....

And then you show me the way by walking ahead of me....

And at last join me to sleep....

Whisper of the Silence.....




The winds blew with a heavy heart.....

Like running away with rolling tears....





At last the sun was waving a kiss...

Him, the night was going to miss.....





Did anyone see what the wind kept to herself?

Or ignore its broken self?





A faith, a hope, shattered today....

The wound it caused never happened in a day...





The howling wind made its voice heard....

In the den, it entered with a heart burnt...



Why should she talk in whispers?

In the grave of forbidden silences?



Nobody consoled her broken heart.....

She melted in her own arms.....



Away with its silent mourns,

It spread it wings on the weary charms....



The dusk settled and it started its cries....

The howl grew louder in wintery nights....



The trees hang down  their faces in shame.....

When her elbow rustles with leaves in pain.....



The whispers went unnoticed with times.....

Sometimes loud, fiery with lightening clouds.....



Her anger grew higher and sobbing decreased.....

When at last she punished the culprit in sleep.....



No one knows when she had her revenge.....

Why then she still whispers intense???



Is it the sadness, she can no longer hold?

Or is it the love, she had but never told?





I begin to sympathize with her whispers in cold.....

Whenever she whispers, I try to console.....



The silent nights move ahead in times....

Still at nights, she whispers her cries....





Still those whispers........

In those silent nights......

The Day will follow.....






The morning sun on its way.....
Climbs up and there it stays.....

How boring is to wait alone.....
To see all going home....

The noon got shunned away.....
The orange, yellow light died at bay.....

What made it, casted a spell.....
And down went the orange jewel....



The shades of clouds that made no sound......
Moved as if in a jungle , moves a hound.....

The prey is hidden well in the cave.....
And the predator is on its way......



Shadows approach and lay on the ground.....
Knowing well, below they will be found.....

When the darkness overtakes....
It will be felt in every place.....



But it's still time for eyes to close.....
Put off the lights and close the doors....

The stars begin to twinkle their smiles.....
And the sky looks like a beautiful bride.....



The silence singing its song to the ears.....
You don't notice, yet so near.....

Overtaking your tired body and soul....

Dreaming with eyes closed......



And all is this....
The day will follow every night.....
And it never does rest in quiet....

Silent Dusk.......






Silent
is the dusk......


When darkness sets its arms to touch.......



The orange
shadows of its pleasure ......


 Left in the east to set in the
west.........




And still beholding the loneliness..... 

Which stops at bay
in a silent melody.......




In this silence...... 

When night falls in love with the dusk.....



Reaching to hug it near the shores......

And whispers in it's ears ......



The moment they meet......

Is only this.......



For dusk reunites with the dark......

And celebrate happily the day's end.....



Dusk meets itself 

mirroring the darkness within...



Holding in arms the night like a bride......

kissing it after day's bright light.....



Night dances until it is weak.....

And on its knees, it comes with ease.....



Leaving the dusk on one end.....

It says goodbye for another hunt......



Dusk remains in the bed......

Till evening chants its name again.....



And when it wakes only to hold.....

The night and say goodbye at last.....











Life is a withering winter

 When people ask me... do I still remember you? I go in a trance, my lips hold a smile and my eyes are visible with tears about to fall. I r...
