Not alone.

not alone!

white moonbeam peeping through a misty window

fell on a sheet spread on wild flowers

a lonesome figure with eyes open smiled

at the sight of myriad of dreams dancing in it

each one of these had one little moon etched

some a few days old, some a few more

and one a little away from full moon

all of these little moons make one

complete life cycle

one complete lonesome figure

one complete jargon of lives spread on the sheet

in they walk cold hands keeping abreast of

souls roaming searching for their mates

voids waiting to be filled

voices reaching across tiny smiles hearty laughters

soulful tears silent cries joyous shrieks

hearts beating chests heaving with every thought

pearls found chosen picked up and embedded

necklace she wears proclaims her the chosen one

the lonesome figure is not there anymore!

Single identity.

single identity.

those molten pearls

saline drops of rain

that fell from these skies we shared

blues that spread far and wide

blues with loads of promises

not to camouflage anymore

neither pain nor joy

we were the witness

you me and my beloved

a single identity

for when I search for you

I find you in me

for when I need my beloved

his hands are forever

on my these very shoulders

enriched in your warmth…

My blackboard.

my blackboard…

I own one plain nice blackboard

I write a few words every few minutes

I write a few tales after I live them with others

sometimes I write mornings

with black and white feathers

sometimes these get written

with hues of my imagination

some days I write water

and splash some around

some days are just plain papers

they refuse to get written

some days are soul’s music

I begin to write songs

I do keep writing on my blackboard

morning noon and evening

whatever be the time

this morning was so special

I painted one rainbow on my blackboard.

Fist of dreams.

fist of dreams…

one little fist holding on to some dreams

passes through the streets of a lost fable

one sparkling chandelier lit with a thousand candles

one dusty wind chime chiming with delight

waves of thoughts gyrating to heart’s music

pools of crystal clear waters

splashing on their own without hindrance

falls in gushes with hushed silence

for lips that care do not utter words

embraces choicest of syllables

a vision spread across crimson horizon

can carry these dreams to their heartland

that they need to claim

to cherish for one lifetime.

More dreams.

more dreams.

I have a few more dreams

left from the half slept slumbers

of bygone years

of days that ran with lightening speed

of nights that stayed for ages till woken

a little heap of dreams

some round some solid some flowing

like that moon you saw last night

through our veins

you and me can call them back

for they are yet unripe

they are green sour beginning to turn pink

let those turn sweet for one final time.

Treasure.

Treasure.

my bosom is filled with the treasures

you have thrown my way

while you walked by me

without our knowing when we

turned our faces towards each other

we began to walk with every step in tandem

we crossed our paths and looked back

our eyes were locked

our feet entangled

our hands glued

our souls merged

our hearts molten in one warm mass

I keep flowing drenched in it

through my deepest trenches

and keep trying to reach out to you

so that we are afloat till we are…..
