I’m so burned out
Like overdone toast
I feel useless

You need a good buttering up
If that doesn’t work
Then feed the birds
They love crumbs

Taking care of others needs helps us fill ours

The reappearing act

We all have demons-

The difference between,
you and me-

I choose to feed them.

They live rent-free,
unwanted guests trapped
in the abyss of my memories

I cannot hide
it's all in my mind

separation of church and
state
There is no redemption

Last call, fist fight-
getting over the words
inside of my mind

I must be dreaming
it's all deceiving

Heed the Sun's Advice

When her dander is up
It's with utmost grace
Warming the fingers and toes
Of her children

When she dips below the horizon
It's with private time in mind
Seeking the touch from a lover
To take with her to bed

And when she opens
Her eyes at the twinkle
Of ante meridiem
It's with heartbeat & blood flow
Happy to have conceived
Another day of life

The artist

The canvas on the easel
Meadows and the mountains, ashen sky
Painting her passion
The artist
Captured in a frame

For my school friend, Sapna, she always wanted to be an artist, she is living her dream and painting her passion :)
Does most gorgeous paper craft, rangoli and painting :)

Rest in peace

Born

Rest in peace

Life happened
And dust settled on silence
Nothing could be said
Nothing could be heard

But memories
Could be felt

This is Love

This is Love

Love I find is a mystical word used often by those ignorant of its profound meaning.
Love is giving yourself away,
And doing so regardless of if you get anything back or not.
Attraction, yes, is one ingredient in a romantic love
But if you cannot say, beyond a shadow of a passing doubt, I would lay down my life for this person no matter what.
Then it’s not true love.

chamber of reflection

chamber of reflection
a space between four walls
no way out
no distractions
from the mirror of my mind
alone again

quarantine...
