Missed Roads
The roads we never took,
sometimes beckons me in the middle of the night
The slumber has left the room
And am left wide awake to ponder the unknown
Should you turn your head to look back
What would you see
Does what you see spritz a pleasant scent
Or does that leave a stale taste
Or does that leave you with a blank canvas
Should you pick that brush to fill it with colors
Or is it meant to be left on a pause, in a forbidden state
Ever wonder if roads unexplored were tested, before the detour
Should we bother to test waters
Or let the sleeping dogs lie
Wait, put a pin in it
Will be circling back on this another night!

Do you know
Do you know the count of times,
you just pop in my clouds that is my hazed random thoughts,
that floats all day and night
Your face is all I see
Your voice is all I hear
Us is all I feel
I keep going back to our conversations
Even the ones from days ago, months ago, years ago
Some clear as crystal,
some hazed like my thoughts,
some conflicting my predictions,
some bringing me to tears,
some making me smile,
some making me laugh silly,
some bringing me to a stop
I keep going back to memories we made
It's not a lot of them
But it keeps coming
I don't know what should I make of it
Do you think about me too
Do you know what should I make of it
Do you know what should you make of it
Do you know what should we make of it
Does this make any sense,
or am I just going circles,
and there's nothing to all this
May be you have me in your clouds of thoughts here and there
May be you don't have me at all there
Who knows
I wish I could ask you
But I ain't got the stomach to ask
What if you have dropped me long ago
And it's just my mind playing tricks on me
Creating scenarios on what If's and what Not's
I wish you could tell me
I don't know if I ever will have an answer to that
May be someday, it all will make sense
May be that day would never come and will be left wondering till the end, hoping for a sign,
a sign from the heavens, if at all there exists a place called that
If this finds you someday, would you know this was meant for you to answer?
Would you answer me then?
Maybe this will be another poof into stardust
And you will never know my train of thoughts
Who knows
Nobody knows
So I leave this into the space,
to be seen or not to be seen!
I don't know if I should make a wish now
Let's see, if destiny has any spells for us
that will catalyst
and make it reach or perish,
only time will tell
And if it finds you or you find it
Come, and meet me maybe? or do you want to not ?
Either way you will know what to do then

... Until the Index page
They fell for their words
They fell for their hearts
They fell for their feelings
They fell for their truths
Truths can be bitter and sweet
But Honest words deserves to be heard
They deserved to know all of it
Falsity was never their cup of choice
Atleast they were on same page until the index page
Knew was a make or break,
so being open and vulnerable was the only right way
Pouring hearts, only the courageous do
Pouring honesty, only the toughest do
Embracing the outcome with grace, only the purest of soul do
Brave were they to be standing to accept their wounds with open arms
Because, what If it were the opposite, wouldn't chance those 'possibly maybes' for a hundreds dime
They were the heroes without a cape,
who wore splinters on aftermath
They are the strongest, so will live on
Nonetheless, felt mighty to say their mind
Better than pondering over what If's and what Not's mindlessly
Falsity was never their cup of choice
Atleast they were on same page until the index page
Knew from start,
moving forward would open the wound in days to come if unaddressed
'Tis better to drop now, they thought
Leave with bittersweet and teary emotions
Covering a lid on it was filled with awkward silences
But kept a brave smile on top of their cracks
'Possibly maybes' crossed minds a number of times
But knew what's done had to be done sooner or later
To rip off the bandaid sooner than later is better
For they never wanted the other to be in gloom in days ahead
Because before anything else their friendship was a vow they made
To endure less and reminisce it over as a beautiful moment shared
Blessed and overly-joyed to share even if it ran a short life
but wouldn't change a thing about it
Sometimes is a mandate opening a wound to heal the whole of it and move past
Being content of letting it out of your chest, is the bravest of brave do
All's not that bad, when your base is strong and built on truth, you will not fall
Wouldn't lie though how it gave a little flutter when they exchanged the shy words for the first time
But you won't float in rainbows and sprinkles forever
When the rainbow fades
'Tis the thread of honesty that would stand tall
Wished could pause, stretch this rainbow and put blinders on days to come
But will it lead anywhere, may be, may be not, nobody knows
For they trust their guardian angels' to do good by them,
For everything happens for a reason
Falsity was never their cup of choice
Atleast they were on same page until the index page

There is an unexplainable beauty about black - n - white imagery
Even in devoid of colors, it enchants you with that depth of untold mystery
An urge to unravel the pieces
An undying need to unwrap that present
I don't know what it is
I love just how it draws me
Like a force that captivates my soul
Like its calling me by my name
To pause and gaze with affection and have deep conversations
the conversations that were never shared before
Like having that itch to reveal all my dark secrets
Only in the hopes of You and I become each other's 'Secret Diary'

It's raining Snowflake
When the little boy was spreading his palms, cupping to catch his first snowflake,
As I was floating by the wind
And thought to myself
I will be the guest for this little one
So excited to catch one, he jumped in elation when I landed on his little palms
He held so protective of me, to not spill
Can't stay for much long
I can keep it together if it's still cold enough and if the little hands don't drop me accidentally
I have seen little and older ones do the catch and hold and throw
It's a rush for us snowflakes too
But it's a good feeling to be held so lovingly and him gazing at me like I am the best ever thing came upon this little boy
Sparkle in the boy's eyes was the best feeling for me too
Love the feels, to be held with admiration
To see I brought that beautiful smile
Made my day just like I made his
I will remember this sweet soul even I join the puddle,
I wonder he will remember this old snowflake too when he grows old...

Anchor
You amaze me everytime
Nothing deters you,
not my sinusoidal, not my turbulence, not my stagnance
Like a lifeguard, I know you'll be there to catch when water fills my lungs
How can I not reach out your extended arms, running into those inviting blanket shield
But sometimes it's just hard to seek
I want to lay staring off the ceiling
Waiting for sleep to sweep off my feet
Wishing the cogs to just slow down a mile
Give me breather, damn it!
is what my un-screamed scream sounds like
Even though I know should get hold of you, when it gets hard
Sometimes I want to feel it,
stay under waters to absorb the sullenness, and stare into the devil's eyes, daring through my shaking body.
Your thoughtful watch understands my need for pause
Your patience amazes me
Makes me tear with a mix of emotions to see you still behind me
I don't dread the abandonment as much as I used to
But sometimes takes in an unwarranted residence when sink in too deep
Your bunny eyes pulls me through that swamp
Demons are still on the hunt
but I won't let it weaken me
I won't let it overpower my vision
Sometimes I think what you think of
Sometimes I wonder would you ever regret one day
Or feel obligated to stay
Or be just done with
I want you to be true as you always are, I want to see you grow even if it means without me
You hold a special place in here
If ever comes a day like that,
I don't know, I don't want to imagine, but still the devil whispers finds its way anyway
I don't know what holds ahead, neither do I want to know nor do I want to plan,
I just want you to know, you have rented a part of me and nothing can vacate it not even the physical void,
I wish all the good upon you, always, but know that your name will be forever etched in the deepest cells,
and I will always have that like a charm, because you're my anchor!

With Love, Uncle Klaus
O Child, O Child, my Sweet Snowflake
Your favourite uncle Klaus from the North misses you
How have you been?
Have you been a good kid, my December?
It's a shame we can't meet for the holidays this year too,
it's been 2 long years of distance
The baddies are still out in the air
I have lost the count of them now
But you be safe my child, wear mask and be vaccinated
Sending lots of love and gifts for you
My trusted reindeers will arrive soon with presents
Until then sing carols, drink some hot cocoa with some cinnamon buns
Snuggle under the wool
Wear your sweaters, mufflers and gloves
And don't forget to send me a postcard with some fine wine, duh! ;p
Ho-o-Ho....Ho-o-Ho....

My Stardust Muse
From the depths of the shadows,
I sense your warm embrace engulfing
Holding me against the heaves of your chest
fuzzy like a bear hug, floating like sailing on the cloud
Keeping me safe from the wild, your hold tightens around me
Each of your shallow breathes in the slumber, gently stirs the strands around my nape, cooling the skin under, giving me the tiny flutters
That everytime draws a sweet curve across my cheeks
And I can't help but caress your heart with my sweet touch of lips
I want to stay just like this, safe and loved in your arms
Wish we could lay on this neverland, gazing at the sparkling stars,
making more wishes to the wishing star
To cease and drink it all, until the spell breaks
But I fear, you retracting to stardust, and back into the shadows, if I raise the curtains of my gaze!

#enso #wod #imperfection #stretchmarks #beautifulscars #beauty #womanhood #beautiful
Enso is a Japanese (Zen) symbol that means Open ended circle, that expresses wholeness in imperfections, it also symbolises strength, elegance and open mindedness.Enso
Felt like a tigress flaunting her stripes
I found it rather beautiful
Pretty lines running along my hips, they call it stretchmarks and some call it scars
Embracing becoming of a woman
Graduating from a girl to a woman
Gave me a sense of elation
It's the so called imperfections to the world what makes us all different, unique and beautiful, wish they could see through my eyes.
