The shiver of evening engulfs...

But it hasn't been so warm before...

It is still and calm outside,

Inside, a loud uproar...

The evening tempts me to infinite possibilities,

Tantalising my wings to fly...

Yet I wait and watch and let it pass...

My thoughts turning shy..

Sensuous..as the night sets in,

Mysterious in its intentions and forms,

I stretch my sight to see what lies in store,

No cold evening has ever felt so warm before...

These are the charms of a night so sparkled by desire,

Of the Velvet sky, caressing my flame

to unravel, to explore...alone and unknown

A dusk has never felt so warm before...

A faint fragrance lurks,

Inviting yet escaping,

The heart is waiting for this night to grow,

And yet it remains incomplete,

without the comfort of your hold!

There is more to this night than I can allure!

Stars shimmer and mutter among themselves,

Giggling at me...smiling,

at my safe haven, so secure,

Inviting me to become one,

with the celestial celebration,

Pampering my dreams, with the soft touch of nothingness

No dreams have been so dear before!

Abstract

I slipped to my retreat,

Cocooned in an unknown nothingness,

Marooned on an island of solitude,

Nothing could touch...Nothing!

Hands itched to reach out,

Existence forgot identity

I fizzed throught the vaccuum

Grappling for control, I shuddered

To know that I never had it!

I left myself to chance,

And longed for concsious

Yearning for velocity,Not rest,

I ran to gain speed

Still trapped, looking for escape,

Yet I couldn't flee,

Till life banged at my door,

I panted, for it took an eternity

To believe in my belief!

The flame that extinguished...
shall never leave more than ugly ashes....
it darkens the clear glass of hope...
boldening the clouds of doubt....
if this is too going to be...

The echos of the undone.....
The lies of blame......
darkens my faith.....
Unfolding the nights of divide....
If this shall too......

The story I wrote....
Can it never be unwritten...?
The dark lead upon my being....
Arousing the scare within...
If I am walking the path again...

Decieved...by self...
Was it worth the flight...?
Forcing me to clip my wings...
Again am I perched to fall
On the hard ground of despise?

Rediscovering!

A little prayer, I whispered,

A little step did I take.....

A little dream did I live,

A litte idea was born......



I moved to make it happen...

Dirt on the undone disappeared....

I woke up to my light....

A wish to sprakle....



A desire to see heaven...

every eye there shines....

faces light up with smile...

Thee... a little wish it is!



Paint shall I my canvas...

with hues of joyous hopes!

Brighter shall be each day....

As I move on....



Shall you be my companion

in the litte steps I tread?

Shall I be the bright mark

On the dull canvas of suffering?



I shall be....

I shall be..

the dream...

That I see!

*!

Much... it does say

Much... it does hide...

laugh it does....

sumtimes does it cry!

Much does it swing...

dances to the rhythm of ur life...

raise it does,

the spirits that were left to die!

Thoughtful it is,

to live that little hight,

Affectionate it is,

to embrace with a sigh....

A look that lasted longer,

made me smile shy...

the glory, the joy, the life..

The twinkle of your eyes!!!

Unsung....

The sky shines down......
to envelope the rising stars....

those dreams at their birth...
were put to sleep....

the old and the new merged to become one...
the struggle between the two, challenging many beliefs...

so is the future weighing us down...?
or the past haunting our soul.....?

the past which didn't breathe....
the future- an endless hole....

so is the present irrelevant.....
or too distant to make a life??

answers so many....yet they elude....
new desires budding to bloom....

more blind can we be??
or blinded by the light of 'future' are we??

unsung song...it will remain...
till present remains, but a distant thought...

unloved it will remain...
the life of a dying a dream!

DISTANCE......

Two worlds I make,

two worlds it takes,

to keep me alive,





I become life,

I become longing,

I become wait,



I become evil,

I become a curse

when I seperate,



I become divine,

when meeting eyes shine,

and memories grow dearer!



I am 'distance',

I breathe....

I am the space between...

being and not being!
