Leap of faith

That one moment, one fleeting moment of finality is all what she needs sometimes. At times to silent the dementors hovering over her, waiting to catch her in that brief interstitial; at times to lull the world of anxieties she carries within. But mostly to give herself the bravado to finally step on the string that ties her todays and tomorrows, to let herself fall down to know for real what biting the dust is like, to gather every ounce of love hiding inside her and for once not want to scream that one name off rooftops but to whisper it in micro decibels to the air, making it the only confidant; the only one that ever got to know it all... Echo of the love once sworn.

Some conversation that was

Him: "Why do you like winters?"
Her: "Like?"
Him: "Uf. Why do you love winters?"
Her: "Because I am naturally cold and you're not!"
Him: "How does that answer my question?"
Her: "Hugs are just so much more in winters."
Him: "Personal heater, am I?"
Her: "You understand me so well."
Him: "You're mad"
Her: "For you, absolutely".

Strike a rhyme - II

Staring at the blank sheet of paper is no new
While the pen rolls side to side
Where have the sweet nothings vanished, no clue
Fear dances in circles as a helpless her tries to find corners to hide.

There are things no glue can fix.
There are places tape doesn't stick.
Rusty leaves none can put back on trees.
Broken hearts untamed, free.

Taming the scattered musings

Leaving is an option
but staying is constant.

When something, someone leaves, there is something that always stays too.

Maybe a memory
when you sip your coffee and steam tickles your nose and you smile remembering something someone said.
Maybe a nightmare
you keep waking up with over & over again yet sleep back to finish it.
Maybe a scar
where the bracelet burned into your skin yet you wore it to have something of him with you always.

Something would always stay.

I'd rather have the person staying than all the memories, nightmares and scars scattered about without a source or destination.

Sometimes it's not about righting the wrongs or wronging the rights.
Sometimes it's about happiness.

Venom

September 26, 2014

Of all the random things I dreamed
Of all the secret notes I wrote
Ink bled as rain pounced
Colors screamed as flares devoured
and you, the vicious poison
eventually became your own antidote.

All for love of the word 'venom'.

Always narrate a love story beautifully. A lot of wishful thinking and dreams rest in between the lines somewhere. They will see their sunset someday.
Not here.
Not today.
Not yet.

Random writings...

Things we carry with us tirelessly

A few missing pieces

Dented, bent, crooked in places.

And then we do away with them, eventually

some months, years down the line.

In places remain the scars

where the crooked angles made home

the vacancy of it all

and the endless vacuum.
