THAT STRANGE LOOK

Off to a midnight saunter
Into woods not so green
I saw someone gazing strong
Afraid to find out and lean.

I stood there still and small
Choosing between stay and move
The gaze took control of me
Telling me things none could prove!

The Fear of unknown built up
Shadows growing strong and dark
I felt a shudder in my soul,,
The thought of bygone, left a mark.

Taking a step back, I thought
Would mean a peep into the past
Heading forward being the best move
This fear will then not last.

I ordered my brain to stop the game
Gave the power to the crimson beast
I knew it would be fair and right
Former always stole the feast.

Now I was out of the woods,
Woods that were never green.
I came and saw the mirror,
The gaze I feared was mein!

Just a Goodbye

Goodnight-s are bad And shall AlWAYS be, But wishing you a wish, Is a wish. And, Shall AlWAYS be! I thought about it and I'm still caught in it. Of how each goodnight whispered to me an echo that my heart acknowledged as a goodbye. Of all the goodbye's ever heard, none could be at par like that midnight goodnight as it flashed my screen. I sensed an ending that wasn't an end. A loss that happened twice. Of wishes that never came with a guarantee. What if, it was already the last of your share whilst you thought of the last one to be even more piercing. You swallow that pain of the imposed last and thank your stars for not making you wait. For what was never yours for the world but indeed your little world which collapsed right then with that goodnight. A night which apparently was never good, those moments that still ache  and long for the night to be good again. And that whisper to be echoed yet again. That pain you're still ready to feel again,, to see that 'goo

Do re mi

Oh I lost it. I lost that thought which came amidst chaotic calmness. I related to it as a mermaid's lost song, oh how happy I felt to have thought of it in the first place. I remember the tune, it still rings in my deaf lobes. Do re mi fa.... The words, those words are lost in the dictionary. A dictionary to those words that existed for the briefest of moments and like smoke extinguished without even a slight trace of existence. I sat down and tried to relive those moments that led me to the no-land. But alas, the castle was burned down and I sipped the thought of extinction. I sat there staring at stars which were hidden inside the blanket of clouds but they did exist. Just like those lost thoughts that do exist but are indeed covered., yet to be found. I thought of him yet again. I dreamt of the starry night too. I wondered if that character I once read about that made me fall in love with myself was him? I thought of us. A fading silhouette of him. I felt that separation even

A GOOD-NIGHT WISH!

Good-nights are bad and forever be! For wishing someone a Good-night somewhat means end of the conversation for that day... And it sounds really really bad to me, when  the person on the other end is longed to be talked to! I plucked a flower And was counting fine. Petals were eleven But i stopped at nine! When two were left I glued my stare. Petals on the floor Which once were there? I plucked one more And only one was left. Seeing its bareness My heart and soul wept. What once was a flower? Is now scattered. But it was very pretty Does that matter? These were random Moody thoughts you see. I never pluck flowers In them I see me. I told you goodnights Are bad and will forever be. But wishing you a wish Is a wish, and always be!
