Lonely places should stay
Away from her.
As she will go gaga
And make them
Her favourite places
On this stupid spinning
Earth.
Lonely places should stay
Away from her.
She bears the potential
To fill them with her
Almost presence
And brilliant thoughts of
Nothingness.
Lonely places should stay
Away from her.
Her pulse when throbs
At her temple
is way too louder
than the hard rock
Music.
Lonely places should stay
Away from her.
As she ain’t a ship
And thus, will sink in
Those empty places
With her toes curled
And a smile on her
Face.
a writer conceals a humble truth behind words. for some reason, the lonely person in the poem is you.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, i believe i am the lonely place. A grave for sunken ships.
ReplyDeleteoh no ma'am. you are the beautiful night sky. with the stars and the moon. its just that with the moon being hibernating and all, you find yourself a wee bit desolated.
ReplyDeleteah. that's so sweet of you Raj.
ReplyDeleteHowever, for me, the moon being hibernating and all is the perfect thing in this imperfect world.
don't be so sure. everyone loves having the moon around. its certain light in the thick of the night, is one mean craving.
ReplyDeletebut one cant help wondering, whats the story behind you believing what you do?
The moon and the stars hanging up there are certainly magical enough to hold anyone nothing but spellbound.And what i believe is a lie enough to pull in an unbelief.
Deleteyou lost me on that last line there.
Deleteif it is a lie that aids you breed an unbelief, imagine how simple it would be to charm yourself up to the idea of a belief. one mightier and more often than not, merrier. nonetheless, the story is awaited.
Please know you got me smiling. The story shall be unfold eventually. For now i can just say 'you and the moon move in such a distant place'.
Deletei know it shall. but generally expressing impatience, tends to brew a certain haste. no one likes to keep others waiting if they can help it. genuine fact. :)
Deleteand for all you know, me and the moon are right next door. it could be a reflection that seems so so far off.
On that subject, the only way to find out would be sticking to the blog. Your first paragraph got me sad and second one got me happy. Now i feel frozen in between.
ReplyDeletewhy frozen? that's for dinosaurs ma'am,how about hanging? as if you had just taken that leap of faith from from the sad cliff to the happy one.
ReplyDeleteeither way ma'am, you have a parachute. all you need to do, is know its there.
and a word better than hanging, airborne. perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteI wish those leaps of faith were smooth and a lot more easy. Thanks for telling me about the parachute. I'd need it the day i go down. Hope it stays there, like a silent companion.
ReplyDeleteif they were easy, wouldn't everyone be just perfect?
ReplyDeletefact is, as long as it is easy, it ain't worth having. and about the parachute, you really didn't get what i mean did you?
and the day you go down? how do you know it will happen? for all you know, it might not happen. and if it doesn't, why worry at all?
even if it were to happen lady, its not worth worrying about.
why?
ask yourself. you do know. you just don't remember it. that, is the silent companion.
I don't know what are we talking about... can't articulate either.
ReplyDeleteLOL. it had started with you, but then we deviated. lets get back to you shall we? :)
ReplyDeletePeople tend to regard me with optimism and courage beneath their breath. I am afraid, i disappoint them :(
ReplyDeleteoptimism and courage?! bullshit.
ReplyDeleteits not disappointing them that matters to you. its disappointing yourself.
so tell me, what do u want from life?
be precise and concise.
