A failed attempt

You come, you go,
You talk or you don’t,
You be in the bed
Or paint the streets red
You run like time
Or stand like water
You slaughter people
Or donate them your organs
Toothaches or heartaches
Handshakes or earthquakes
I fail to understand
which ones  
are more deadly.

For me,
the world is being remade,
each and every day
and failing
to make me dead.

  4. heartache spoils your dreams. toothache, it takes your sleep. you decide.

    ps: amazing piece of work you are. the complexity that is death, is never far from your mind is it? :)

  5. Raj, my life is somewhere like a need to escape this life. These aches help. And I bleed words here.

    Ps: Thank you for reading me again.

  6. its not a need v, its a desire. one you have nourished for a long time now. they say a lie said enough times becomes the truth.

    Ps: i have said it before and i will say it again, i read for me, not for you.
