Warm orange light at night,
Dancing in the moonlight, the starlight,
Shadows and Turns, Trees and Stones,
I have counted 83 and each leaf I had known,
And those dreams I whispered to you,
My Duliajan, you know that I have always loved you.
Do you remember the tears you soaked,
The hushed memories of dawn,
The flowers that you bloomed bright,
All those times you held me tight,
I thought we were forever.
A haven, we were comrades together.
But you made me a nomad, I had to go,
My stories went dry, I missed you so,
Travelled far and high, No solace I could find,
Matter did not exist, no heart and too much mind,
Tired I looked for you, my sanctuary,
I looked for you..

the Sapphire Soil
Do i walk on it
or do i stare
at its beauty at its peril
at its mystic like a devil
the sapphire soil of eternity
beckons to me and says
'Isn't this route well known,
am i not your only hope?'
a mockery yet true
the sapphire soil of mayhem
'there is no escape from you',
i say and tread the path to hell
p.s - wrote this one and a half years back... found it today :)

Goodbyes
on a purple night,
in the silent breeze,
i chanced upon the sky,
and i was transfixed !!
'cause the stars did twinkle
but they also winked,
and they whispered ever so softly,
they had me jinxed..
in the silence that followed,
i heard an unknown melody,
a song of space,
enrobed in stunning rhapsody,
it filled my heart,
and a joy it warmed,
an oblivion oath,
bound me tight and sound,
and suddenly,
and suddenly they glimmered,
and faded to black,
the silent still of the night,
held all the things i lacked
as i closed my eyes,
a teardrop escaped,
with a shudder i ran,
to never look back again.

about my dad
I look up to him,
with the love of blood
and bond
with the patience of years
and hope
with the warmth that only
fondness can bring
with the smile that only
understanding breeds
Yet i long to be free
of his guidance upon me
and wish to see
how wide the world really is..
how to walk on a path unknown
and face a crisis untold
how to discover things on my own
and let the wind of life
blow me away towards my calling
as it unfolds..

A Kite
I let myself be flown like a kite,
every wind, every word,
directed me to my ultimate fate..
they stung, some soothed,
but they made me fly anyways,
but all for my final fall,
it was not a waste nonetheless..

that home of my dreams
i fly away,
to the world beyond
where the rain is chocolate
and the clothes louis vuitton
where the curtains are floral
and lacy with frills
and the walls are painted
in colors i dream
the windows are large
and sunshine is plenty
and the balcony brings
the breeze from the sea
the fridge is stocked
with litchies and juice
and sundaes and frappes
from CCD is you please
my bed is round with
silk pillows and sheets
and net curtains of pink
adorn it free
red roses, white lilies,
pink gerberas and daisies
look pretty in
glass vases of feel
to the world beyond
where the rain is chocolate
and the clothes louis vuitton
where the curtains are floral
and lacy with frills
and the walls are painted
in colors i dream

and sunshine is plenty

the breeze from the sea
the fridge is stocked
with litchies and juice
and sundaes and frappes

and net curtains of pink
