The Dreamer's Plight

Beloved...
You are the spark in my eyes
The truth amongst the lies
You are the redolence
Joie de vivre
You are beauty and bliss
Love’s gentlest kiss;
Oh the pain it brings…

If I am the lone sail-boat
Amidst the ocean that’s endless
You are the serene luna
Whose proximity beckons the tempest
If I am the moth
Attracted to the brightness
You are the flame
That’ll annihilate my existence

Let me know you as an idea
An illusion...
A dream that’ll disappear
A memory that’ll fade away…


Drift away, my Beloved
Drift away…

Before my sanity loses its way.

A Pair Of Eyes

Midnight caresses  those dreamy contours
While the mirrors within reflect ebullience
Myriad emotions drift across the twin oceans
At times, trickling down in streams
At times, disappearing like the dreams
Like the fluttering frail wings of the butterflies
Soft veils touch those watery depths
Moistening and protecting the precious gems.

They are the portals to the soul within
Or cemeteries…
Marking the presence of two worlds
The known and the unknown.
The visible and the invisible.
A world that has words to emote
And a world without them…
A wordless world hidden in their soft gleam.

Lines Written In July

This odorous morn as the heart sighs
I think of you.
Aren’t you the precious ephemeral dew
Kissing the blades of the grass in the meadow
Or mayhaps the fleeting shadow
That belongs to me,
On days when clouds rush past the sun.
A thought of you,
Sometimes is the drug that heals,
Sometimes is the poison that kills
Sometimes… it’s the fire which burns
Creates a lot of noise, petrifies the soul
Sometimes, like the raindrops,
Creates the aura of love
Fragrant, as the rain drenched earth
Soothing the agony it brought.
Rain…
Just like the rain
You infuse the joy of living into me
You hold my heart 
As I paint the pictures with words
Just like the rain…
Drowning the chaos all around
Your presence lights up my essence.
