Adieu...

Poetry Of Fond Remembrance!

Beneath the rubbles of fragmented thoughts

A faint trace of you, shall forever remain

And I shall recycle my memories each day

To find you, within me, over and over again !

Words that remain untold, moments unshared

I shall at times paint them in thousand hue

And sometimes compose a solitary poem

And keep them all preserved, only for you !

If solitude leaves a waning smile 

On your lips, on some fading evening 

Just know, far somewhere, beyond the stars

It's you, only of you, that I have been thinking !

My Moon My Sky

My heart is the sky

You a distant moon

Sometimes waxing towards fullness

Sometimes waning towards darkness

Yes.. a moon you are

Floating in my unlimited space

Growning to fade

Fading to grow

An enigma.. a deep mystery

A secret my soul has sealed

Never to be revealed

To be graved in my tomb

Along with me

Only my epitaph shall read

A few rhyming words

An unfinished poetry

Where my moon shall seek

Cover of dark clouds

And get dissolved in me..

A Fiction

Beneath the layers of 

Untold words..

Under the debris of

Crumbled memories..

Somewhere within

You live..

You live, for the entire night..

In the absence of outer light..

Illuminated by your own glow

From you to me.. passion flow

Living together, with hues many

Transience if at all pain any..

Dreams lived in a pair of eyes..

Then, slowly night flies..

Day come in bosomed in tarnished ribs..

Gone is the night.. so leaves the dreams..

Light, light and light spread..

Leaving me and you dead..

Again a night shall choose to remain..

Into our goblets of sparkling wine..

Again we shall take our sips..

Locking our trembling lips..

Each night we live beyond..

Until day chooses to bring the end..

To us both, and our wonderful delight

And again, we wait, to live at night !
