I can abide no more
This deafening silence..
Crushed….
Under this cruel kindness
I witness the living death
Waiting to diminish
My dying alive soul
Are these real nightmares
Or imaginary realities
Am I a mournful optimist
Or a hopeful pessimist
Contemplating these bizarre realities
I shrink into the shortened eternity
Your cloudy eyes shed
Few precious pearls
I embrace them
And fill in my heart
To remember those bitter moments
When I left you alone
To cherish those sweet moments
When I was remembered.
Running behind life
We fail to note
That life has slowed
And it trails behind
In the quest for successful life
We gallop faster and faster
But perplexed and saddened
We wonder, what went wrong?
We have everything yet nothing
Successful we are, yet life is missing
We fail to realize that
We need to halt
And turn back
There we would see
All that we missed
All that which was once ours
We would see the hopeful eyes
Of our loved ones
Whom we ignored
At last we will see Life
Still waiting...for us
I shrugged with disgust
Spilling my abhorrence
For my worthless life
Yet life loved
And bestowed
Unasked boons
Which seemed
Futile to my
Arrogant mind
Resolute to end
Consumed a pinch
Of pallid poison…
I sensed you
From my
Cataleptic state
Few hours of care
You bestowed
To a sinking soul
A sudden gush
To outwit death
But Irony of my fate….
I was a little late….
I learnt life
When life hated ………
Yes, I learnt life
When life betrayed………..
Sweet memories
Buried deep pops up
The silver strands
On the familiar faces
Makes me realize
That ages have passed
Yet all seems the same
Just like yesterday…
Time relapses
To a stage
Where life knew
No worries
I wish to accomplish
So much…..
That I had blindfolded
I wish to rewrite
Few pages of my life
If life could give me
A second chance….
I see a ray of hope
Peering through the somber sky
The moistened mist touches
The layers of my inner heart
I rise from my hibernation
To discover
The rainbow of my life
A kiss
On my eye lids
A shower
Of your care
I taste your sweetness
On my lips
Quenching my thirst
Of a wait
Year long….
The first rain….
