Breaking


BREAKING…

Photo: Google Images


It wobbles…
Once steadfast
Now falling apart
On the brink of breaking…

The sound of cracking
Reverberates in her soul,
Memories of its careful
Nurturing haunting her
A vain attempt…

Angry blood gushes
Filling her senses…
She can almost
Taste its bitter vileness,
Its poison coursing
Through every vein and pore,
Putrid and dark…
Impaling and deadening…
A stake through her soul

She watches…
Turning cold and numb
She waits …
For the onslaught to end
Out of control…

The silence of dying
Mocks…
Its yawning jaws
Snapping her,
As it engulfs her
In its hellish fury…

She claws and scratches
Searching for the pieces
Of her lost heart…
Rot and decay
Slip through her desperate fingers
She slumps amidst
The ravaging inferno...
Eyes hollow
Listless...
Her heart dead
Lost forever…

Sometimes I wish….


Sometimes I wish….

Sometimes I wish
My mystical nights last forever…
The dark emblazoned by
The humming stars,
The clouds waltzing
To the tunes of the gentle breeze,
The night creatures
Silent spectators…
When we cross over
Fusing as one
On the milky- way,
Stringing our dreams
With silver threads
Borrowed from the moon,
Etching colorful patterns
From pieces of sparkling stars
While the soothing wind
Sells our dreams
To the glowing darkness…
Guardians of our secret.
We dance and play
On the divine path
Fingers intertwined
Like children,
Happy and gleeful…
Oblivious to the cold truth
The inevitable dawn
Heralds…
The magical night fades
To resurrect once more
Waiting, holding its breath…
How I wish the night was
Mine to keep…

Is This Love?


Is This Love?



Photo: Google Images

She sighs, she purrs
A sated proud feline…
As she lay languid
And regal,
A diva in full glory…
A tremulous smile
Plays on her full lips
As his gentle fingers
Strum and transform
Every scar, every ugly memory
Into a thing of beauty
To behold!
His hungry lips explore
Her undulating contours
Unraveling her mystery
As she surrenders…
She sighs, she purrs
The outside din
A symphony to her ears
His whispers of love
Burning and sizzling
As she twirls and glides
To their fiery passion
The walls that caved once
Now tell tales of opulence
She is a queen…
Her heart flutters
Like wings,
Ready to soar to
The deep unknown
As it traverses realms
To be one with him…
She sighs, she purrs
And wonders…
Is this love?

GONE


GONE


Photo: Google Images


Pictures of you
Haunt me…
Smiling, frowning, laughing,
They tell me
Stories of what was
Of desires, longings lost and gone…
My eyes search yours
And always the same questions
Torment my heart…
Why me? Why you?
Turmoil singe my inside…
I feel a prisoner
Banished to the hellish gallows
Of lost dreams,
Trapped and damned
Tied to an eternal wrack
I try to rise above the
Heart wrenching pain…
Scrambling and scratching
Up the walls of my
Damp and cold dungeon
Nails torn and bleeding…
At times the light above
Clears my sullied vision
And I breathe easy
Hope seems not a distant dream
I sit for endless hours
Weaving fantasy and reality
Into a fine bright tapestry,
Intertwined with motifs of love,
Laughter, bliss and ecstasy…
My journey less tiresome
Then that trigger again…
A voice, a thought, a memory,
A song, a smell…
Plunges me into my hell
My hunger, my longing, my desire
Like gadflies drive me insane
As I scream and wail
With no respite in sight
Why? I cry fruitless tears,
Knowing there are no answers
You are gone for always
And so have I…

MY DREAMS


MY DREAMS



Photo: Google Image


My wasted, weary dreams
Lie scattered like petals
Around me…
Some fresh and crisp
Some crushed
Others torn and shriveled…
I look up at the expansive sky
Generous and engulfing
And beseech for strength…
The desire to collect them,
These carelessly strewn carcasses,
Throb and pulsate…
I long to gather them,
Hold them close to my heart
And weave another tapestry,
Another patchwork of longing
Frail and incomplete
Futile without you…
I gaze at the hopeless scatterings
Wanting yet holding back,
While the wind
Blows them away
No longer mine…
The shadows of agony
Dissipate…
As the beaming sun
Smiles down upon my
Eager face…
Renewing me
For another day,
Another bunch of
 Fresh dreams…

CALL OF THE NIGHT


CALL OF THE NIGHT


Photo: Ron Bezbaruah 

In the sweltering darkness,
An uneasy calm hovers
Clammy, cloying…
I toss and turn
My mind restless…
Conjuring happy thoughts,
They slip through like sand
Slippery, intangible…
 I am no magician!
Across rivers, dales,
Oceans and mountains
A voice calls out…
Soothing…
Unraveling my tangled soul
Spellbound I listen…
Every pitch, every sigh,
Every tinkle of laughter
Music to my sore ears…
Every word of love
Manna to my hungry senses
I listen…
Enraptured by this magical sound
Wishing it lingers
For always…
But it fades…
Always!
The first light of
Breaking dawn,
Harsh and incessant
Jabs at my sides…
Pain like second skin
Settles on me…
To be peeled once again
When the voice returns,
Reaching out…
Calling me across miles….

SNAPSHOTS


SNAPSHOTS



Photo: Google Image


Snapshots! 
Black, White,
Colored…
All vie for attention!
A plethora of snapshots!
They stare at me!
These faces!
Each tell a tale
Of long spent passion,
Of a frenzied love!
I stand amidst them,
Invoking memories
Of what had been…
The dream laden eyes…
The trembling lips…
Excited and swollen
Their desire unleashed
As they devour
One another,
Tracing a new
Love story…
The tender arms
That hold promises
Of eternal togetherness,
Ecstasy transporting
Them on gossamer wings
 To a world of their own.
Unaware…
Oblivious…
That all fades in time…
Pales…withers…crushed
To dust….
Their glazed eyes
Plead for answers…
Haunted faces!
Where did it all go?
Their screams
Almost audible…
The longing that
Tore the very soul,
The passion that
Ignited in a blaze,
The hopes,
The promises
The love that was theirs
Timeless…
Where?
Why?
I have no answers…
Silence my only recourse…
The sea of faces
 My very image…
I walk away,
Turn the pages of my life,
As a lone tear slides
Down my heavy bosom…
Their love…
A fairy tale now
Their faces…
Inanimate and lifeless
Their hopes and dreams…
An illusion…
I walk away wiser,
Glancing one last time
At the fool
Still trapped in snapshots…
