As Night Falls...(II)

As night falls,
Hesitantly taking each step
She looks around
Her heart thumping,
Working incoherently
With her inner peace
Silence
Is her best friend
But darkness
Weakens her strength
Along with the sounds of crickets
For music
Fear became her companion
The coldness of the air
Sends shivers down her spine
She tightened her grip on her side bag
Her nails dug into the depth of the leather skin
Leaving behind imprints
She quickened her steps
Almost running now
She arrived at her destination
The wooden shed,
Will be her temporary home
She fell asleep along with the fear
Buried within her
But there was no peace
She feels vulnerable and exposed
She is sleeping
Yet awake...

As Night Falls...

As night falls,
Hesitantly taking each step
She looks around
Her heart thumping,
Working incoherently
With her inner peace
Silence
Is her best friend
But darkness
Weakens her strength
Along with sounds of crickets
For music
Fear became her companion
The coldness of the air
Sends shivers down her spine
She tightened her grip on her side bag
Her nails dug into the depth of the leather skin
Leaving behind imprints
She quickened her steps
Almost running now
She arrived at her destination
And reached for the door
Before she could do anything
The door magically unlocks itself
"Welcome home,honey"
She took one more step
A new feeling floods through her
Safety it is
And all the fear she left behind the closed doors...

Love, A Painful Bliss

Love,
Beautiful,
Yet Painful,
Freedom it offers,
Yet trapped in an emotional circle,

Love,
Makes you wise,
Yet the slave of it,
Reassures happiness,
Yet empty promises

Love
Gives you wings
Yet ties you down
Gives you hope
Yet breaks your faith

Love
Glorifies you like a sun
Saddens you like dark clouds
Love
Takes away your breath
Yet put an end to life
Love,
Can be the start
or the end
After all, it is love
Loving Obsessively
Vulnerability Eternally

A Note

I wrote a note
"Fetch the kids",
I wrote a note
"Food in the fridge",
I wrote a note
"Will be late",
I wrote a note
"Don't wait up",
I wrote a note
"Soccer on Sunday",
You left a note
"I am leaving...for good",
I held the palm sized paper
Close to my chest,
Tears welled up in my eye,
I fell to the floor,
Staring at the marble kitchen tiles,
That we hand-picked,
When we build this home,
Now, it is a house
With memories
If only I wrote just one note
"I love you"
It could have made a difference....

I Am Not

I am not what you think I am
I am not fake
I am real
But I am not what you think I am
You think you know me
But really, you don't
Because I am not what you think I am
I am a treasure
You will need time to know the real me
To read my soul
But for now
I am not what you think I am...

Walking In The Rain

The puddle of water
We both stepped our foot on
Together
Shattered to pieces

The rain drops
Lost its grip
And fell to the muddy ground
As if it was clinging for life
At the tip of the umbrella

The sunset
Colored my surroundings
With orange and a tinge of pink
Felt so joyous
Like I was standing at heaven's door

With the pin drop silence
Only two things was loud to me
One the rain
The other your breath sound
Beautiful
Truly splendid
How the rain brought us together
Sharing an umbrella
Feeling the warmth of your skin
When it rubs against mine
As we try to avoid the puddle of water
Lost our balance
And held on close to each other

We did not say a word
And yet it felt just right
Like this moment was meant for us
A script that was written for us
I just had one wish
That this path would be long enough
For me to enjoy each passing second
And lock them away in my memory

My love

His strong arms wrapping me
His breath gently
Moistening my neck
His heart beat
Singing our favorite song
His fingers artistically
Making its way up and down my arms
Stopping on its journey
To carve an invisible love on my skin
Only felt by me
Sending a wave of happiness
That slowly pulls me into a sea of joy
His toes naughtily caressing my legs
I let go a small giggle
With his constant kisses on my shoulder
I looked up at his face
His blue eyes is a beauty of its own
They instantly connected with mine
We spoke
With no words
A million things were said
Yet no one heard us
His face
Looked like thousands of diamonds
Put together
Glowing under the sunlight
I thanked Lord
A silent prayer went His way
Letting Him know
How grateful I am
To be loved!

A New Start

I sat by the window
Looking out
Into the horizon
The mountain top
Framed by the dark blue sky
Keeps me wondering
Where does this journey end
What is in store tomorrow
Will the purple morning glory bloom,
Spreading warmth and joy to my heart
Will the morning bird chippings
Come as a beautiful tune into my ear
Will the cold breeze touch my skin
Giving me a feeling of joy
Uplifting my spirit
To go ahead with another new day
Or will it be just another day
With the sound of traffics deafening me
And the smoke clogging the pores of my skin
Aging me
Looking much older than my true age
Or just another sight of insane beings
Scratching one another with sharp claws
To be the best
Whatever it is,
Lies in the eye of the beholder,
A change can only be done
When the way something is looked at is changed,
A closed door,
Can be the end of the world
or merely a start to a new journey...

Yet To Be Discovered...

When the breeze of love finds my way
I stopped in my path,
I felt the connection
Instantly I knew a new road will be laid
An adventure,
We will both discover together
We will stick by each other,
As we unfold the mystery of love
And we shall leave our trails along the way,
As a living proof of our wonderful journey
It would be a history,
In the future
About the everlasting love there ever was...

Instinct

I saw,
Those eyes were staring at me
I got a glimpse of his vision
She stopped to look
I watched
The movement of their lips,
So familiar
What is it?
I wondered,
A cloud of anxiety circling me
My name
That’s what it was
They are talking about me
Why?
I questioned,
I am always their target
I don’t care
This is my life
Those wild eyes will haunt me today
But tomorrow,
It will be my day!

Touched By An Angel

I looked into your eyes
And I found peace
I looked into your heart
And I found love
You hold my hands
Cause you had faith
And the warmth
Made me smile
I told myself
God can’t be everywhere
So He must have made you
Just for me
To care
To love
To give me guidance
To teach me the meaning of life
And I am thanking Him today
For having to meet a person like you

Must Be Spring

It must be spring,
The loud laughter
The sweet smell of flowers
The soft breeze gently lifting my spirits
Telling me you are around
Do you remember the white sand?
We wrote our names on
Washed away with the ocean waves
We smiled
Cause only you and I know
The love crafted in our hearts
Will never die
Unlike the sand
Our feelings are real
They will last for an eternity!

The Last Sun

There she stands
Looking out of the window
The sorrow in her face
The tears in her eyes
No one knows
No one understands
The sun is setting
She looks at every corner
The pictures
Brings back thousands of sweet memories
She once stood at the same corner
With her flame
Now, there she is again
All alone this time
Her trust and faith broken
Here,she is standing in shame
There,the sun goes
Behind the beautiful mountains
She made her mind
The pain was too much to bear
In an instant
It all turned black
Like the sky outside
There she was
Lying this time
Not standing
The pain buried within her
At the same corner once she thought
Life begins
Now,it all ended...

Pain,The tear drop

Behind each smile,
Comes the story of pain,
Not known,
Not told,
Laughter they see,
Sorrow they dont,

Clear stream of water,
Shattered with the drop of a stone,
Light was my heart,
Now,burdened with pain,
I could feel the tear drop,
Holding on to my lashes,
There, it dropped...
Just like the stone,
Shattering my dreams,
Its unfair, I screamed,
No one hears,
None stopped,
Friends they call themselves,
But, are they really?
In each of us there is a stage,
The stage of life,
I call it,
We build,
We decide,
Characters we play,
We change the role,
I am the Cinderella,
I am the evil sister,

It is just one of the days,
In many to come,
I am standing,
Alone,
On this stage,
The pain has spread
to the minute pores of this body,
I am still walking,
Lost,alone,
No, not alone!
The pain has taken up too much of me
It will be soon when I fall,
When the pain outweighs me,
Till then,I will walk...
