But the magic happens in discreteness,
when you choose to describe
who I was to you.
Perhaps then finally, the chambers of your heart might freeze blue.
Cause I might have been pushed off prematurely,
Or might have chosen to fall off by myself.
like a ripened leaf - yellow on the mud
With an eternal melancholy.
Or the time might have carried me with it,
leaving you with an urn of memory.
Or I might have travelled afar up north
In hopes of finding prosperity.
And when the magic happens in discreteness,
I fear I might never know.
So do tell me, when we still have time,
whether your heart is craving or not.

I can't help but to paint you
As a women who lived a thousand lives
An age old being still youthful
Carrying with her a bag full of hearts.

Seems like it
............................
A heart doesn't need much
To be broken or to be exalted.
It's strength lies in its simplicity.
Often being torn apart,
And getting stitched back.
Sadness lies in it's many forms
Often too cruel or at times futile.
Just like the nimble winds,
That collectively create waves in the Pacific,
or like a drop of mercury enough to paint a person's death.
Some words are enough to make the ice break beneath your feet.
Some actions are enough to push you
down to the stairwell of insanity.
But the thing that hurts the most
Is you being too blind to see
the efforts that I make, to put myself together -
To run, to walk, to speak my ways back to you.
Maybe just like me, this is yet another selfish poem that doesn't seem to make any sense.
but I often wish your heart had ears,
Because surely it seems like mine has a tongue Which seems to speak a language that you could never understand.

From her eyes
......................
I gazed depths into her eyes,
After agreeing on a staring contest.
Notice how I blinked twice,
Just after we blew the starting whistle.
That’s how weak I get,
Knees weak - heart weak - around her.
And when she noticed me staring further,
Even after my deemed failure.
Her eyes struck back with a gaze,
Perhaps a futile attempt,
to startle a grown man’s heart.
And as always I took it with a smile.
when I gazed upon her eyes further,
instead of the love that I was hoping for
I got to see my own reflection thrown back at me.
And on her eyes there was no love for me.

Sometimes my heart crave to give out unending hugs, in-between pauses of your late-night speech.
Often I crave comfort,
To idly recline on your back,
To find my tears washed away after gaining relief from the wounds past had gifted us.
Sometimes I find you comfortable as home,
Even on the times my heart is seeping despair.
And I am not even dazed to say,
I had known this a long time before.
"having a heart blinded by the shadow of a love that it could never receive, inturn blind to the love one is willing to give."
We resume to die every other day.

Fireflies
Curse the powers that be
The refrain from distain
The mere mention of your name
That draws me back to a time
Young and innocent
And full of wine
I remember
The cold, dark and callous
Sour lament
The way you abused my trust
To your heart's content
Torn purse strings
Plucked like so many feathers
Fallen from the cheap
Pagentry of old wedding bell rings
Promises taken back
Gifts given and unused
Digital memories hacked
My mind racing
From all eternity's infantessimal
Peculiar moments shared
Like so many coffee cups
Poured out in rich display
As only if to say
You wounded me
For good
You never wanted
To run away with me
But yet here we are
Stuck like so many fireflies
In a jar
Our time now flickering away
In sobriety
No wishes were ever granted
Like birds that never landed
The tragic reservation
Lost in loveless abandon
And no will to fight
The wreck that is our life
So slow and twisted is the knife
That hides behind
What we always thought
Was right

Queen of hearts
..........................
Her wandering soul craved closure,
She was too tired from walking miles.
Once this gypsy queen walked the blazing sun,
From where she got her feet burnt.
Then she walked the crescent moon,
And felt the moon dust-
healing her cracked up wounds.
She used to pluck petals off from her
Flower tiara and offer it to the king of nights.
This gypsy queen had walked miles-
without end on both sides.
But in the end it didn't matter as both her masters gifted her the same heavy-aching heart.

BURIED BLOSSOMS
You once told me our love was the starry night
And our hearts the vastless milkyway that never died
In bed of ashes we had laid our love
In smiles bleeding hope from the darkness we had known
With curled hands grasping the moon's edge
Petals of summer drifting towards hearts that were cold to heat
To rest in scents of bliss carved from barks of breathing trees
Had our sinking hearts heard the distant sound of the mournful horns
Would it have clung to the strings of our yearning smiles?
But cherry blossoms never last the winter's cold grip
They fall away slowly towards beds of dust that cover the blooming souls with darkness
Till each last petal is reborn into gloomy horizons
So we breathed in whispers that graced the air with golden scents of love
While our end beckoned from the distant whirling wind on edge
Dancing on precipice of hills that fall towards earth's beckoning hands
We tempt the fate that rushes towards our entwined hands
Until the silver moon gave way to the fire of the orange sun
And we were burnt underneath the now falling blossoms
Fall slowly, breathe slowly, cry slowly
Slowly
Fire works bleed heat into the floating memories in our eyes
To be free, on wings of an eagle fleeing towards the splashed horizon with fears locked behind bars
Deaf to the unending tremors in our hearts
Perhaps the silence will wash the permanent stains of regret
Tears form hallows of peace on pale cheeks moving towards the shadows
Will it fall, will it stay
Forever frozen with regrets locked in its glassy gaze
Or perhaps our fates were never meant to dance to the same tunes of eternity
So now go on towards the beckoning hands of blissful rest
While the blossoms are covered in beds of darkness
Hands entwined even underneath the roots of the moon
Eyes close slowly
Slowly

Crime
You carry the sun and moon
And constellations in the palm
Of your hand, you have roses,
And poems and nectars from yonder
Worlds ticked in the folds of your robe,
Let my eyes cruise over the eclectic
Delight of your being, I am longing
To be washed in your gaze,
My tongue craving the taste of your
Name in my mouth.
Oh merchant of dreams, you knock
Every door in my neighborhood,
But I am kept yearning, till you
Become the moon at whose sight
The wolf in me begins to howl,
Oh prince of my wildest dreams,
Tell me my sin, what is my crime,
To have your lips caress my parched
Skin, must I wait till the end of time?

In the eyes of the morning sun
I dread of our parting
Let it be for once a moment of forever in your arms
That I may not wish more of staying than bidding goodbye
But if it is in sorrow I must face the future that lies ahead without your warmth
And spend a lifetime of missing the embrace I once had
I'd rather bid the world farewell and stay with you in paradise3 0

Be it overdue to spill my love for you
And you may have turned your back to what we once knew
My heart rests unwavered in every passing day
Silently longing, patiently missing, forevermore held a hostage by your wondrous being10 0 1
Chasing the owl
She was a slow-soft fox but she was still a wild child. He is just but an epic memory to her so she follows the sun hoping to find the moon where her beloved owl hunts the wild flowers.

he said "let's just enjoy it while we can
if you don't want to I'll understand"
that's much easier said than done
when it feels like you're the one
you're out of my reach, although I try
begin to preach to myself and I
tell her "get real, you need to be smart
you're carelessly betting with your heart
and your current hand is so damn weak
you'll never get off this losing streak"
but she keeps her heart on the table
knowing what they have isn't stable
and she's not blind, she can see
she understands their reality
she knows it has an expiration date
whether or not they are soul mates
she see's their hearts getting shattered
she looks away, it doesn't matter
although they both know how this ends
neither can stop playing pretend
patiently they wait for the day
when they're forced to break away
they grab as much happiness as they can
on their way down, before they land
cause at the bottom they know it's over
where fate begins a hostile takeover
and pulls apart what should be
no matter how hard they plea
life taught them something, although rough
it taught them that love's not enough
because you love, doesn't mean it'll be
neither understood that more clearly
but they continued on just the same
running full force into the flames
not looking back or caring what's ahead
holding on tightly to their deathbed
feeding their addiction, giving out hits
strung out until life makes them quit
each hit a risk of being left alone
caressing gently their war zone
selfishly feeding what they crave
fulfiling their appetite in their grave

The Last letter of the Lost Egyptian Queen
I am with you. I saw you fought in battles, dreached in sweat and blood, with you fiery eyes, with the sword you father has given you. I heard your wails and cries when he died. I was there. You did not see me, nor knew my presence, but I was there. I saw you bow down your step mother who took your throne that was rightfully yours. I saw you blindly follow her evry command for the good of the kingdom you would lay you life for. I saw your troubled mind as you began to see what was wrong. I saw betrayal on your eyes when she turned her back on you. I saw your hatred for throwing you out, for reducing you from a prince into an accessory to the throne. I felt the fire in your heart as you vowed to come back and take what was forcefully stripped from you, your honor, your title, your kingdom, your innocence, your smile, and all that is good. My heart broke with yours. I wept with you. I rejoiced with you when you succeeded.
Then you finally met me, in the most impossible way. We fell in love and it was good. Those days were our paradise. With every touch, every kiss, every embrace, whispers of sweet nothings— oh how I treasured them! Even amidst the war, amidst the hatred your people whom you love, spit to you, amist heartbreaks, I loved you. All of you.
Even though I know how this will end, still I loved you. Even it is against the laws of heaven, still I loved you. Oh God knows I did. Even though I knew your fingers explored another, even when your skin's fragrance was mixed with countless bodies, I still did. I forgave you again and again and again.
But my child began to look strangely at his father. He looked at you with fear and anger, my love. You became your worst nightmare. You forgot all your promises and visions as you got consumed with the power you hold. It crept into you, slowly but surely.
You broke our hearts love. And I saw it. I watched but I cannot save myself from it.
You were no longer a husband to me but a king whom I should obey. I was your queen but no longer you treat me as your most beloved woman, as you countlessly promised me.
And now, with nothing left of me, I will leave your side, back to where I truly belong.
As our queen, as the mother of your children, I beg of you, be a father to them. This is my last request, my king.
Bidding my goodbye,
Your forgotten queen

Two different worlds
You and I
We aren't perfect set of teacups
You are so different
Lost in your own dreams
Your world completely different
Aloof from mine
I am here clueless in life
And you are there with
Thousand different dreams
With aims so high
You and I
Are we on the same voyage?
Your journey seems heading in
Different direction than mine
Your perfect world
Can't accommodate my so little
World full of imperfections
You are born gold clad
And I'm here all in rags
You and I
We aren't on the same page
Your story is different than mine
Your story seems interesting
With happy ending
And I am just incomplete pages
Of sad story
With never ending
Miseries in life

Read MoreI know I'm your first thought when you wake up in the morning,
And I know it is me in your mind when you fall asleep in the night.
I know that you think about me every now and then,
And I know that you want to be with me.
And maybe, you've even started to fall in love with me.
But is that enough?
Is that enough for us to be together when you don't even want to admit it infront!
When you say your hurts from the past changed you,
Now you're not the 'You' you used to be once,
You say you can't feel, you say you can't love anymore..
Yet I was willing to be with you, and help you heal.
But every time you choose to show that you care, and then you'd just distant yourself from me.
Not holding on tight enough, but neither you want to let go me..
Tell me what should I do?
Because this surely is hurting me more than you realise.

Toxicity
Those cigarette butts that he calls his own are just ashes of him flying away with the wind. He's withering away with each puff just like she's losing her grip on reality with every sip. It was said that they were toxic together. It seems like their toxicity followed them in separation.

Future
He kissed my damp eyelids and said, " Don't worry, we'll have our forever." I smiled sadly at him. "What's our forever when this world has no tomorrow?", I replied and kissed his dry, cracked lips.

Tragic love
The magic of her beauty was traced on every inch of his soul and body.
His body was embraced by her touch,
Her feelings and her presence.
Everything she felt was his.
after few years,
she had a yard where,
flowers bloomed and groomed themselves for the sunlight,
Dancing with the tunes of winds.
Yet,
They never knew how did the happy love story ended as such a tragedy.
Where her death marked the blood stains on his body.
- Tragic love(Prakriti)
