Never loved this way
I recall how petrified was I
Never envisioned myself in this, oh my my!
Questioned it's existence
How can I love you from such a distance?
Long distance, is it even a thing?
It feels like such a fling
But God had different plans it seems.
On a beautiful sunny day
Love was mated and created
For the first time I didn't feel neglected.
Unrecognisable was this sensation
Of someone craving for my gratification
Diving in your sea
Kissing all your waves.
But oh love you had to leave
It was your dream to be overseas
But what about me?
Separation anxiety stabbing me
Am I over exaggerating?
maybe, just a bit
being a little selfish is not a sin.
Gave you one last hug at T2
didn't even get a chance to kiss you
What is this feeling of panic?
it didn't settle down until you landed in father land, this is so ironic.
4000 miles away,
it hurts a lot I must say
So much that I can write an essay
with collected tears of blood
What to do my love, I was never loved this way.
I'll swim every ocean and fly over every mountain even when you know I'm aqua phobic, just so I could engulf you in my arms.
Patiently waiting for the day you surprise me because baby without you I'm like a missing puzzle.
I truly mean when I say,
I was never loved this way.

The ocean was blue and blabbering....sunkissed, my eyes were closed....I could feel the warmth on my face under the cerulean sky orchestrating to the shrill chorus of thousands and thousands of seagulls.... The sand was as hot as a frying pan on flames and my bare feet could hardly take it..... I stretched my arms and set out on my paper boat.... I wished to drown in the blues.....

The sky dresses in lilac.... the street lights flash.....two barking dogs after each other under the orange sun.... zillions of ravenous mosquitoes buzzing above our heads..... this doesn't seem like any plot of a romantic novel..... yet we had to part.....

Read More...and As you heal
From this world of hurts
Refuse to be
A layer with hardened crust
Blow off your seal
which makes you stiff
And pour forth Pure Love
To All in Need.

Maybe you need
someone to hold your hand
A solid support, to say
You need not cry no more
Maybe all you need
Is a hand to draw you near
Saying to you
All will be well
Let your heart
Find His arms of love
That Caring One
Who'll never let you fall
So Let your heart
Receive his Love
Saying to you
It shall be well with you.
And if you find a hurting heart
Someone like you
Whose hurting too
Don't turn your eyes
another way
But be the shoulder
they can cry on
For this is how
True love goes round
A tender heart
We let go round
Refuse the hardness
Stiffening our insides
But be the crust
Where true love resides
And through the hurt
We all heal as one
A loving heart
Encouraging the other
And through the pains
We'll find the gain
As we rely upon each other
Pulling us up
Unto True Love
Pointing ourselves
To the True Healer
The Only One
who mends broken hearts
The only one
Who sifts hard layers apart.

#proseI Borrowed a Handful of Blue Sky from My Last Lover
I borrowed a handful of blue sky from my last lover and sprinkled some scarlet hue of my lipless laughter on it. A pinch of tenderness and warmth, a long forgotten code of my vanilla love. A ring of onion to bring in the pearly tears that fill the heart-shaped lack. A garnish of foundation oil that made up for the tan or the lack of it. Memories that set with the sun and set about with the moon. In a monotonous life a chore called love.
In a bowl of life, parallel to the green salad. A salad that numbs the tongue and teeth, proscribed the art of tender kisses. A salad without pepperoni to burn the morning routine. But I add a pinch of lemonade / soda per say— to clean the bowel of the finest reminisce.
I borrowed a handful of blue sky from my last lover and made a salad to flush the scars of tenderness. To detox the body of stinky sticky memories. A trip down the memory lane, all I find is the salad I made. To look pretty and lush like the cabbage I munched.
In a bowl of my precious salad, I did add the blue sky. Like the leftovers cooked not out of will but goodwill. To fill in the gap between the mouth and the old page (to flick it with a finger dropped in saliva) I eat the salad. To flush the old song and start a new record. I borrowed a handful of blue sky from my last lover and a new packet of chips from the market downtown. One out of goodwill and another with my will. Should I end it with "respectively"/ order reversed.

Read MoreI borrowed a handful of blue sky from my last lover and now he's wading through the deluge that had him engulfed. I lent him a bottle of sunshine, but he says it isn't enough to clear the demons from his mind. The demons he said, have taken a piece of his night. So every night as he lays baring his soul, he feels a cold shiver inside.
He longs for a patch of moonshine to feed his bereaved soul. He's willing to trade my bottle of sunshine for a curl of the rainbow, truth be told. I offered him a bucket of blue sea, a mirror to behold.

Read MoreIt's been years since I don't believe upon fallen stars.
My maa once said "Fallen stars will grant your wishes, today stay awake and wish for anything you want." I did stay awake in the freezing coldness at 1 am being a 7 year old.
Suddenly a streak of light flashed in the sky quickly. I immediate whispered to me heart, "I saw patched dress people on streets yesterday, please turn them into people like us."
Next day, maa asked me whether I wished for something. I nodded my head.
Today, after years realizing poverty would never fade away. My mind only with cloud of chaos lies in the couch, looking out of the world in the window. The dark sky had tiny twinkling stars. Just like that day, today again a streak of light flashed the sky. I didn't want to wish upon those "fallen stars", not because they didn't fulfill my wish, but because they are already "fallen".

i thought i’d plant flowers here. what kind of tool would i need to bust up the asphalt? i can see it now, the cracks, the earthquake of intention splitting the ground. do you think the salt of me is buried here? how many layers in would i find them? maybe they wrapped their wet arms around rocks and kept safe somewhere, knowing i’d be back with roots. oh, that would be something, to see them travel the roots of a rose. or a sunflower. something yellow. something strong. something in love with the sun. i thought i’d plant flowers and they’d sing like flowers do. you’ve heard it, right? what frequency of sound is it, so high and ethereal, angels hum along. a song could travel time, eat away the night in may, an appetite for shrill silence. let it fill in the cracks my voice couldn’t touch. thank goddess for going back. i thought i’d plant flowers so every time the concrete wall was littered with trash, the sky would see them and still smile. the cars would pass unbothered. the nights would come and go, the stems would still stand there, the petals would open and drink. this place would be beautiful. this place could be beautiful if i plant flowers here.

awareness
I look around—where are all the politicians without pocket-hidden suits? Let us fill the streets! Let us care for our neighbors and rejoice in the well-being of all be-ings. Less landfill, more gardens full of honeybees. Oil dependency? Frack no—our mother rumbles—fractured—bleeding gasses. Let wind turbines stand sentinel over us. Let us be scaled by silver panels turned toward the sun. Stop pissing in the ocean water growing warm and still beneath a thousand rusted hulls. For years our eyes averted from a darkening sky—it’s time to see.

Terminus
I found the two-headed baby deer dying
on a bed of soft pine needles under cover of an overturned oak,
not five kilometres from my cottage,
Its lungs still pumped,
Its crimson heart beat weakly through a thin,
translucent skin,
that decayed before my eyes,
until there was no skin,
and all the organs lay warm and still,
in a heap upon the earth,
like waste.
A god evaporated.
It is human nature to disbelieve
that one may be witness to epochal events,
so I did not believe that I,
of all people,
should be witness to the death of time.
Epochal: the concept itself is dead.
How lucky we were
to know time at its cleanest,
and most linear!
We know now that such constant linearity
was the consequence of a living entity,
It followed the creature like stench follows a skunk,
and we basked in it
as if it was the natural state of the world.
No more.
Time no longer heals,
Things do not pass,
Or pass only to return.
At first we believed this would be manageable,
Yes, we thought, we will relive our pain but also our love,
Everything shall be magnified!
Welcome to an age of great emotions,
a new Romanticism!
Yet we overestimated how much we help,
failed to accept how much we hurt.
And we did not realize the nature of evil,
which accumulates in a way love does not,
To re-experience our love is to know it,
again and again,
at the same intensity,
but to re-experience pain is to increase its volume until it overpowers us,
deafening us to everything else.
I will never forget the creature's eyes,
full of hatred or hubris,
yet seeking aid it knew I could not give.
How does one save a dying god?
It was not my fault!
I was but a child asked suddenly to solve a deathbed equation
expressed in an undiscovered mathematics,
I had to fail,
yet in failing I have brought it all upon us.
I relive it constantly,
Every time its eyes are louder.
But it is the hour for my afternoon walk,
so I will take a pause and enjoy what remains of living.
I will go to my favourite spot overlooking the city,
and sit on the iron bench,
from where the view is magnificent,
Above me,
the clouds will form,
a tangle of pain and human corpses,
and I will sit and ponder until the first blood drops fall,
Then the screaming will begin,
the final storm will rage,
Beating, crimson corpse-clouds under a thin skin
of dissipating reality,
raining blood until we are left
warm and still upon the earth.9 0 1

My Silence is Murdered
They painted my face
with my lips faking smile
They replaced my sad eyes
by those which don't cry
I see my reflection in the water
And I don't see myself but them
My sadness is veiled
My tears are wiped
My face is chiseled
My silence is murdered

"The Door"
On one lonesome tiring night, I sit on my couch, slightly dozing with my TV slowly fading from my blurred sight. Suddenly, I hear a loud knock at my door. Startled, I ponder who would come at this hour. I sit, hoping it is just pranksters out on a nightly outing. I turn back to my TV, eyes heavy as lead, I doze off, then there is another loud knock at my front door. I get up hesitantly, weary of who may be on the other side. I turn the knob slightly, with caution and trembling hands, slowly, I open the door ajar. Standing in my doorway, A faceless hooded stranger. His clothes as black as the night behind him. His eyes is all I can make, they blaze with fire, Staring back, dwelling into my soul. I ask him, with a trembling voice. “Are you Death, standing at my front door?” Without a word or a whisper, he lifts a boney finger and points it towards my heaving chest. My suspicion now confirmed, realizing I must be dead, Death is here for my soul. Suddenly, he steps forward with his single finger and jabs it into my chest, I scream, darkness fills my eyes, then I wake up, sitting on my couch, the TV still playing in the background. I realized It was just a dream, I must of dozed off to sleep. Satisfied that I am still alive, realizing, it was only a nightmare. I get up and head to bed for the night, then suddenly, I hear a loud knock at my front door.

"The Mannequin"
She stands there with her beautiful long brown hair, eyes of sparkling blue sapphires, a pasted plastic smile; oh so enticing. I walk up to her, with shyness in my steps, sadly, I do not know a great pick up line. Before I could think of one, she says “Don’t be scared” with a twinkle in her eyes. “I am not” I uttered, looking down, a little nervous, I’ve never done this before. “I will not tell a soul” her plastic smile stretches across her face, so elastic, so beautiful, so… “Come closer” she softly echoes, her voice is so soothing, so calming. I inhale sharply, I don’t know what I am doing, I am married, I must not betray my marriage. “I will not tell a soul” she repeats again. Those words keep repeating in my ears… “I will not tell a soul”…what if you don’t have a soul, does it still matter? I ponder on this question, then I realize I am close to her, too close, hovering almost over her, she stands there like a statue, unmoving, yet still ever so beautiful. “Come closer” and so I do, before I could stop myself, I kiss her so passionately, tenderly, my eyes closed, twenty years of marriage flies before my eyes. “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I just can’t do this.” I run away with tears welled up behind my eyes. However, it does not affect her, she still stands there, in the same position she has been for over a year, unmoved, as a mannequin in front of a shop window should be.

Mercy
If the universe is merciful, I will re-emerge from the celestial spluge on four legs instead of two. Human feet tend to wander around the wonder of their own tracks. They bleed out on the burnt out roads paved with good intentions and small bones. Blessed be my future grave where my whiskers will merge with the weeds.

Prose Poem
She's my domestic help. Does her work well. Studied till class ten. Have asked many times why she preferred slogging over washing, dishes, sweeping floors, instead of sitting behind a desk. She says she's happy doing what she does, pay aggregating to more than what she would get from a single source. Add to that the meals and snacks she gets from homes she visits and the annual bonus during major festival. Leave alone the many paid holidays when homes are shut, they've gone on vacation. Isn't she smart in choosing her profession?
Her sister a B.Tech, gets what she gets, working ten hours, repairing mobile phones, and listening to complaints from irate customers, all day!!!

My Best Friend
The one with whom I share my loneliness
and my sadness gets a sweet hug
The one who understands my every heart beat
And reads me and my life thoroughly as an open book
Each coma, each full stop, each space, each sentence, each chapter, each paragraph ,each page - she reads attentively and understands even more than myself.
.
The one who calls me every morning, afternoon, evening, day or night ..
just to listen to me if I have anything to say ,if I have anything to share .
The one with whom hours seem like moments ,most valuable, meaningful moments of my life .
The one who is the most essential part of my life .
.
The one friend who is equal to 100 relatives and 100 friends
The one who even listen to my silence, deep sighs and also my lazy yawns .
The one who brings me to sense when I am at the verge of losing all my sense .
.
The one who inspires ,guides, cheers, strengthens me
The one who has a big hand in building my faith on God stronger ,
on making my morals stronger , integrity tougher, and shaping my character solid, my thoughts pure
and heart soft and transparent.
.
This long journey of life still now would have been incomplete without her ,I would have been lost and might be dead .
About whom I can say exactly as David said about Jonathan - you are dearer to me than women . I can say about her - you are dearer to me than men.
I know this friendship was predestined by God ,we are friends by God's beautiful plan . We are two lovely flowers and two daughters of God

My Best Friend (Extended)
The one with whom I share my loneliness
And my sadness gets a sweet hug
The one who understands my every heart beat
And reads me and my life thoroughly as an open book
Each coma, each full stop, each space, each sentence, each chapter, each paragraph ,each page - she reads attentively and understands even more than myself.
The one who calls me every morning, afternoon, evening, day or night ..just to listen to me if I have anything to say ,if I have anything to share .
The one with whom hours seem like moments ,most valuable, meaningful moments of my life.
The one who loves and accepts me just as I am
The one who enjoys my company and laughs at my silly jokes
The one who celebrates my childish innocence .
I have had infact many best friends ,but most of them got lost in the sand of time and their course got changed somewhat with the season of life
But she is someone who endured all ,the one who stood in the test of time and stayed there always as my shadow.
I still love all my friends with all my heart
Yet she is someone without whom my life is incomplete .
The one who is my co partner in challenges, odds and wars to stand out from the rest, to not follow the fleeting lies and not to fall for illusions ,not to ever compromise with wrong.
But to walk in truth and obedience to God,
To listen to His voice, follow His morals and standards.
Even when we are alone, left with nothing and no one except each other
Even when we seem like being defeated in life
In the hands of complexity and crookness,
The twists and turns ,foul games of life ,of people and world
Which our simple , innocent minds fail to comprehend often.
To love everyone selflessly ,to always love unconditionally
To never let go of the kindness and sweetness
To always put on humility
With her I learn in practical life
the essence of Christ
With her l learnt to see the world in the eyes of God transcending all bars , beyond religions ,limits and divisions
In her I have found the beauty of a pure soul
A soul that rests in God and is surrendered to God
A heart which always delights in holiness
Someone who always seeks the divinity.
Together we ride the path of virtue and maturity ,learn the lessons of life , support and correct each other.
This depth of friendship and human relationship we share .
I know even when the whole world is against me, or alien to me ,
she is the one who will always give me smile ,breath of relief and ease my heavy heart , my confidence.
She is some one whom I listen and trust with my closed eyes
Someone who has given me the care and concern of a sister, of a mother when I am
motherless, unknown to my own and hurt by all
She is someone for whom my soul will always rest in peace and smile.
The one who is the most essential part of my life
The one friend who is equal to 100 relatives and 100 friends
The one who even listen to my silence, deep sighs and also my lazy yawns
The one who brings me to sense when I am at the verge of losing all my sense
The one who inspires ,guides, cheers, strengthens me .
The one who has a big hand in building my faith on God stronger ,on making my morals stronger , making my integrity tougher, and shaping my character solid, my thoughts pure and heart soft and transparent .
With her by my side even this painful ,dreadful life
Appears beautiful and bearable.
This long journey, the path of mine would have been so hard
I would have lost myself , my strength ,my faith and hope as well from humanity and life.
But her presence has made such a big difference.
And I know she is God's answer to my life
A gift from Him ,sent from above
Only He can plan, design ,provide, sustain and execute .
About whom I can say exactly as David said about Jonathan - you are dearer to me than women . I can say about her - you are dearer to me than men .
I know this friendship was predestined by God ,
we are friends by God's beautiful plan .
We are two lovely flowers in God's garden
Two daughters of God who love God above everything and everyone .
I might have many complaints to God for many things
But I have understood His grace on me through the presence of this friend
I have succeeded to espy the heart of God through her
The beauty, joy ,depth and purity
of friendship, of companionship
How wonderful and awesome ,this human relationship .
Oh ! How glad I am that God has blessed me a friend like her to share my life ,joy ,sorrow ,
to share my path and journey
The visible Angel of God on earth for me
I am so lucky and grateful to God for providing such a friend ,such a rare and most unique human being in disguise of her
She continues ,and will always continue to be my best friend forever .

These summer days, when the colors start to fade
These summer days, when the colors start to fade, slowly turn to Autumn. But still, holding on to the bright days and the long evenings and the days spent lazily. I admit the red heat and the silver thick air aren't my favorite palette, not the first choice of colors to paint with. Still, I'll miss it when the rain comes and the winds blow and the clouds cover days, not just hours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are also lessons to be learned. Appreciation, action spurred, to protect that which we should cherish, to change our footprints, that which we leave behind. The sun seems angrier these days, burningly upset with what it sees, searing with righteous indignation. We leave behind more than just footprints, take more than just memories. We are to be moments, remembered for good deeds, not destruction. We must rethink, our footprints.
