We were never strangers...














All the time, when we were near...


We were never strangers.We were some old souls, soaked in our own warmth... in our own minds...on crossroads. Waving at each other... sharing smiles. 





We were never strangers, when we could feel how our hearts fluttered, in the crowd of two. We knew how much deep the darkness we have held inside...how much our lights have peeped inside, the cracks that were only scars and not fresh wounds...





We were  never strangers to the fact, that we were not even friends but we were also not enemies.


We were strangers to ourselves...playing along the line... of ignoring our reflections in each other... we were two lonely souls, connected by a single smile. We were two wounded hearts, connected by a single dream. We were two stupid people, holding guns over each other... with only a bullet left in it.





We were never strangers...for we were the two lines of the single song...the song that was never audible to others, as they were deaf and we...we were two blind people... searching each other in the midst of a wrecked drowning ship...











We were never strangers...how could we... for we were never meant to be... strangers after all.

The Old Piano beneath the Stairs...
















The Old Piano...

Lying beneath the stairs...

Reminds me how you played...

When only we were there...

The keys have become old...
But I remember your every note...
It lays imprinted in my mind...
I replay it alone at times...
The stairs, where I used to sit...
Hiding myself in every bit...
Feeling your fingers' tips...
Moving along in music...
That time you played that song...
Which filled my heart for long...
The words of love untold...
I heard and felt it uncontrolled...
Now you are not here anymore...
Only your memories and the song...
Play, rewind in my mind...
The old piano beneath the stairs...
Standing to be played again...
And I still wait on the stairs...
To hear your song that you once played...

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....

 

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...
