moth balls

The stillness of now is replete with silence

Stuffed with moth balls

The mouth aches



How much longer?

Do I hold onto?

This oblivion between us?



When the stares are empty

And glazed

For I don’t know,how many layers were done



Everything seems…so long ago



The entangles

Remain entangled

The coldness has won over



I fail to see you now



Now that we measure

Our distance in once upon a time



With pauses aplenty…

unfinished

Underneath the brown

When you touched me with yellow

The blue mark-

From the frozen red

is still there..



late at night

when the chirping has died

the hand curls

filled with blankness

its been a while…



the love was left out too long

unattended, uncovered

it betrayed self defeat

and forged a few smiles



marinating the soul

with feelings unwanted

and desires displeased

unfinished…

Random random random

The drunken poetry

Spilled a few vomits

Though it smells of vinegar

The radium shines through it



Random random and more random

The chaos is spread neatly



Unnerving at times

The suffocating emotions

That returned with a thud

Tied from the elastic band

This hurts more than the absences



Random random and more random

The chaos is spread neatly



Now and then the nerves pop out

Strangely the blood is blue

Not from royalty

But the bitterness which brew

For so long…

How long?



Random random and more random

The chaos is spread neatly



The cures were smashed

And covered with muck

Still the blood oozed out

Sometimes blue and then turning black

It should have stopped by now

The flow drop by drop…



Random random and more random

The chaos is spread neatly now.

sobbing echoes

So how will you sum up now

The partly functional dysfunctionality

When the wheels got rusted

And yet we pushed it along

Ignoring the screeching sounds…..

Leaving me to clean up the marks

Caused by the small thorns

You planted here and then

They pain at intervals

Beneath the upper layer….

I tried to knot it hard

But was fooled by the magnitude

As the fabrics got all mixed up

The silk got the worms along

And the cotton got the seeds….

When you mocked the first smile

Of her innocent sleep

She cries at time

For her warmth is pure

And the nursery rhymes are mixed up…

Once again

I am trying very hard

But the labyrinth conceals the door

And I knock on the same walls

Again and again….

Though the sky shows a rainbow

It left out a few colours

And sprinkled the dust

There where I wrote your name

With affection and dejection….

Why did you cry all by yourself

When we could have shared the tears

The sobbing echoes creep at night

Wandering between the closed doors

By morning they fade away….

Blending the rainbow

Without rain.

imbalance

keep writing he said
but the pen broke down a few miles back

no she couldn't give up
the want to breathe again

once again she picked up some traces
some strings had been let loose

the silk was too much to handle
it was as fragile as her nerves

and then it happened
the chemical imbalance
and enabled her to fly again.......
