Dear one
full of fear one
why worry
future would come
we would be same
passion may tame
But love…yes, love
would keep us warm
hand and hand
weather any storm
that daily kiss
you emboss on my lips
would last me for years
my face reflects
joyful tears
your embrace holds
million fables,
stories you told
more than enough
for my old age
my beautiful
vivacious sage
come, lie beside me
under open skies
I feel free
even stars agree
on a moonless night
your hand on my heart
what a wonderful sight
I will never lose
my drive, my thirst
of you and that smile
just one last wish
I don’t do goodbyes
please let me die first

Beautiful…

You know what my grandfather used to say to nano.He said I will let you go first as I know you cannot bear having to part with me.I may but you won’t. Thats exactly what happened and now that she has gone he has changed a lot too.He may not show but its hard on him…๐

It is fine AJ, no need to embarras me ๐ I do it because I believe all good people doubt their abilities, unless you have the courage the world will put you under its boots and then crush you like an insignificant insect…it is upto us whether we wish not to be that..and scream that we matter…only then we become equals and able to deal with life and its issues including our existence and its meaning…

since we are in poetic mood
when the early
hours of night
I lay awake
tears form a lake
careless thoughts
missed opportunities
lost fraternities
not happening certainties
my sage comes
some water and
sweet passionate words
never join that herd
alone is not bad
don’t be sad
my young lad
sleep now, tomorrow
is a beautiful day

Thoughts deep
From solace keep
Sleep may come
but ghosts may haunt
A lot is lost
now more to lose
I simply refuse
but does it matter?
The fate weaves on loom
Patterns dark of doom
Impending gloom
no spring abloom
LikeLiked by 1 person
my dear, depressed seer,
fate could even darken further
fierce storms could hurt
thrown in the mud,
tasting more dirt
tears will flow,
moments will run
terribly slow
and then….
then what,
don’t lose sight
life’s light,
breaths left, quite a few
time to renew,
pledge to excel, exceed
I pray you succeed
overcoming demons within

My courage threatens
in midstride abandon
Falling on my face
already fallen from grace
Of self respect left no trace
Screaming from a cliff
Tied with rope in a skiff
sailing to a shore
Hearing tales of yore
patience threatens to snap
in clean half:waves may overlap
my remains and blanket them
none may see:perhaps no requiem
But then I am destined
left at mercy of waves
I am like all mankind
Fretting may not rescindโบ
