“I can’t wait anymore”, she said.
“Wait for what?”, he asked
“For you to fall in love with me”, she replied.
sad
Heart Acheš
“He’s with someone else”
She kept telling herself
Yet
Each time she said,
she was breaking apart
by falling for him hard.
Well Played
Our story began smoothly with a ‘hai’.
I was writing it.
The first few chapters were heart throbbing.
Words were inspired by him.
Secrets started to spill.
The Chapters started to get filled with passion.
And the story urged with heat.
Fate wrote the lines to destiny.
The destiny I had wished for us.
I was wrong.
I realized the last chapter was already written.
He was already in his “happily ever after”.
He was the author and I was just a pawn.
Sinister
Woke up bemused by the piano read in my dream, it was uncanny.
Coming to my sense I heard the same music being played from my garage.
I was petrified realising that I was alone in a house without a piano.
Broken Vow
“For better or for worse”
I paused,
“I am letting you go”.
Rejection
It was the first time.
The first time I got rejected.
Unexpected, it broke me apart.
It felt like a thousand stones weighing
down my heart.
She said no.
Even though she knew
it was my favourite choclate bar.
Mind’s Reflection
Scared as hell I glanced behind in search of the dying screams and weeping squeals, my shadow glanced back.
Lose and Lost
Standing in the place where the alley once stood, he reminisced their first kiss. “I miss you”, he etched on a brick in the debris.Ā It’s been 8 years. One night had changed his life. Shattered everything. But the debris remained. He threw the rock and walked away in grief. The rock fell near something that shimmered in the scorching sun. It was a promise ring.
Transition
Poignance
Ostracized
To me, loneliness comes not when I am alone but when I am in a group of known faces who acts like they are my friends but I am sure they are not when I am not around.
Violence
Wars are never won
becauseĀ they are alwaysĀ
devastating, leaving behind
fruitless success to be
adorned by the tears of
the bereaved.
An Angel
Silent Killer
‘Expectations’ brought me a friend ‘Joy’, but his enemy, ‘Depression’, stalked me till I shedded tears whose girlfriend, ‘Pain’, slowly wrecked me until I was no more.
First and Last
Unsated
Even when the trophies
marked the success in my
life, they were not the
fruitĀ of my dreams.
Wise
“The age is just a number, your real age is defined by the number of mistakes you make and how much you have learnt from it, how much you have grown, for that I am still young, lad, so think before you call me grandpa”- he laughed hysterically yet fervidly at the newspaper boy.
He was too wise to be a ‘madman’, that was what the people called.
Futile
The one born without vision longed to see, to express his opinion without fear of fallacy.
The one born without voice
longed to speak, to express his opinion in his words of wisdom .
The one born without ears
longed to hear, to express his opinion by listening to with love .
The one born with everything decided to remain deaf, blind and mute.
Optimistic
No Need To Say Goodbye
He left me with no hopes,
only memories to cherish,
the burns as a symphony,
and its imprints as souvenirs,
the deepest one etched in my heart.
