This gentle rain outside
Calling me
To slowly fade into the night ...
Ronit Apr 20
I heard the other day that you went to touch the blue horizons, riding the lonely waves.
I heard the other day you were walking along the endless shores, stretched across for miles upon miles.
Leaving only your solitary footsteps behind ...

I have never seen these shores, never glided on the blues.
Never caught a glimpse of the vastness that embraces eternity with such grace.
Never for a second in the life of a singular eternity have I thought that maybe, just maybe, serene feelings lie in simplicity.
So, next time, when you go to the and walk along the endless shores to meet the horizon,
Will you take me along? ...

It's just that I've been thinking recently.
How, from the beginning, we are rigged to self-destruct.
How much we yearn for oblivion with every atom in our flesh and blood.
Yet, we never think for a moment about these footprints we leave behind.
And our parting sighs ..

If you look at me now.
Sleepless nights, bloodshot eyes, weary soul, and still trying to reconnect.
But you were always beyond my reach, always up so high.
Endless foolish attempts of mine to reach you among the stars.
But everytime I have overlooked one simple fact.
That you have always belonged to the sky ...

Live on, and keep dreaming on.
These self-centric lifestyles, mine and yours, ours and theirs, closer and torn apart.
If this is the definition of love,
Why am I fighting for peace? ...

But I heard that you still dream, still write stories, poems, and songs about all of us.
Chant music of the olden days from the depths of your soul.
The saga of human existence still makes you think that love still blossoms.
In the far corners of this world, like a still blooming rose.
So, the next time, when you write another song about the love that still blossoms,
Will you write some lines about me? ...

You should write something beautiful, something only a foolish romantic would say.
"Hold my hand close in the middle of a crowded street, and maybe I will reconnect."
So that I can answer you with this,
"Make me believe in closure again, and maybe I will again look at your face." ...

If it's not too much trouble, can we just talk all night?
Just you and I?
Until the stars cross our paths,
And sing us a lullaby? ...

I heard that you still wait for the end of the eons at the edge of eternity.
Still watch the starry skies on melancholy evenings with the eyes where the horizon finally came to rest.
I have never seen this edge before, nor have I seen such evenings.
So, the next time when you go there,
Will you invite me? ...

Maybe we will watch the starry explosions in the sky.
The end of everything on a melancholy evening,

With your hand in mine? ...

Sometimes I want to live
Sometimes I forget to live
Sometimes I pray like this a thousand times
For just a little love .........

Sometimes I wish this would happen
Sometimes I wish that would happen
Sometimes I wait for you
For just a little love .......

It changes a little
It soothes a little
This heart skips a little, for an unfinished  dream
For just a little love ...

I too wish
To be your's
Someone with whom I can pretend anger
Someone who I can squabble with
For just a little love ........

No matter how many times I search, I can’t find that face
The one whose name appears every day in the story of my love
Every day I search for you
But every day I forget that you were always here, near me
Every day I find you invading my ruins with affection, riding my thoughts
For just a little love .........

I don’t know why my story is lost somewhere within two worlds
Then it is better if I narrate my story in my own words
I have been burned a little
I have been extinguished a little
I have been a little like smoke, riding on the winds
For just a little love ........

It changes a little
It soothes a little
This heart skips a little,  for once a dream
For just a little love ...

I too wish
To be your's
Someone with whom I can pretend anger
Someone who I can squabble with
Someone with whom I can watch millions and millions of stars

For just a little love ........

For

Just

A little

Love ............

I can see the tower
I can see the small window
I can see the small light
Drifting across the sea of silence
Dreaming wide awake in this beautiful night .....

The small radiance from the candle
Telling me a million words at once
It is still far
But that is my only guiding star ....

I wonder if you can see
That whatever wars come our way
In the end ... it's just you and me .....

Sea of time is breaking my small boat apart
but I will still come to you
And
I will set you free
So you keep watching the stars
And
Wait for me ......

Are you still awake?
Are you still looking at the sea ?
Are you still looking at the stars ?
I dare not to say
But
Are you looking at me? .....

Tell me,
If I come
Under your tower window tonight
Will go take my hand
And
Go away with me? ....

I don't care if you are royalty
I don't care about time
Because that little light
Told me all about you
I will claim what is mine .....

Yes it is true
I have no riches to offer
I have nothing worth to give
But I can set you free among the stars
Hold my hand
And believe ...

Tell me,
Will you cross the limit despite tempest & majeure?
Tell me,
will you go with me on my small boat? .....

Neither I will make any false promise
Nor show you the abyss of love, or blind endearment
Tell me,
Will you still go away with me?
On my small boat? ....

The looming darkness and the waning moon
My song becomes a blur
Come with me princess
I won't cast anchor
Anywhere anymore ....

I am waiting under your window
Sea at one side
The night sky on the other
I just have my small boat
Tell me,
Will you be on-board? .....

                                                      - the Doktor

THE END

I'm scared that I would never be found .... always lost and tucked away in a corner where no one would bother to check......fading away slowly .. leaving my little sighs behind. But honestly,  I am terrified of the mere thought of being found. I don't want to show the broken mess that is me .... I don't want to acknowledge that I am weak and want to be found .... but somehow ... my heart yearns ... and I keep on waiting ......


I was working night shift a few days back and it was raining outside .... around 2  am I wrapped up my work for a brief moment looked outside the window before I head home ...... I didn't see the rain or the moon that was peeking from the clouds (maybe I'm just tired of looking at the obvious ...) ....


instead I looked at all those wonderful neon city lights and ... for a brief moment .... I felt that I was one of those millions of city lights .... a tiny little luminous piece waiting to make  ends meet .... buried  and forgotten within the bustling noise of life .... blinking on for just ......

a brief second in time .......

In my dreams,
I see we moved to the town we grew up in
You promised me you'd take me there again someday
But you never did ......

Well, I'm all alone there now
Sitting inside our 'special' treehouse
Waiting for you ...

Waiting for you
To come visit me with a box of fruitsnacks, a walkman and a bunch of cassettes
But you never do ......

And so I wait,
Wrapped and suffocated
Between my fever soaked sheets with my agony and loneliness ........

I know I've done a terrible thing to you ... to us
Something so unjustified .... so cruel you'll never forgive me for
I wish I could go back in time to change that hon, I really do
But I can't
Forgive me
Please? ........
18/06/2019
I feel so pathetic and helpless
Laying here day after day ... week after week .. month after month
Waiting for you .....

Every day I stare up at the cracks in the ceiling
And all I can think about
Is how unjust .... how unfair all this is .....

Whenever you come to see me,
I can tell how hard all this is becoming for you
Fighting for a lost cause
Trust me hon
I understand .....

I don't blame you ...
24/06/2019
The doc came in today
Told me I could go home
For a short stay .....

I'm glad to be coming home
I've missed you terribly
I missed my big buffon .....

It’s not that I'm getting better
It’s just .... it's just that this may be
My last chance hon
To say goodbye ......

But I'm afraid
I'm afraid that deep inside
You don't really want to see me the way I am now
That I don't have a place anymore I can call 'home' ...
01/07/2019
I don't know if you hate me or pity me
Or maybe I just tire you
Just ...... just stay by me a few more weeks .... and tell me it's all gonna be okay
Please hon?
Please? ......

It's just that when I first learned that
I was going to die,
I just didn't want to accept it .....

I was so angry all the time
and .... and
I ...I struck out at everyone I loved most
Especially you hon .... the man that stood by me through best and the worst
I'm so so sorry for saying such terrible things to you
Forgive me
Please? ......

That's why I understand
If you do hate me
But I want you to know this, hon
I'll always love you .....
04/07/2019
If by some miracle I get to hold you just for another day
I won't trade that wish for the world
You gifted me some wonderful years, hon
I ..... I just wish we had a little more time
A family ..... a baby to call mine .......

I love you so much hon
I wish I could show you somehow ........
06/07/2019
Well, these entries have gone on too long,
Funny .... this is the final page of the diary as well
Told the nurse to give this to you
After I'm gone .........

I told everything I had to say
When you'll get a chance to read this,
I'm already far away ....

I can't tell you to remember me,
But I can't bear for you to forget me
Don't forget me
Please? ....

Leave a little space for me in your heart
That's all I want .....
These last few years since I became ill
I'm so sorry for what I did to you,  did to us
You've given me so much
and ....and
I haven't been able to return a single thing .....

That's why I want you to live for yourself now
Do what's best for you, hon
If you’re out walking one day
and .... and
You feel a certain presence beside you
That would be me, loving you
Wherever I am ....

Love ... you were the best thing that ever happend to me ...

You made me ..... happy."

The constellation that speaks it's name is the opening line of the zodiac
Endless search for a sacrificial Egyptian golden ram and the scent of gooseberries and lilac
Once the name is found
A prayer to Aries and tie it down in the hope of revelation on a pyre
At southern side a demon will writhe forever
No need for an open flame as the name is self destructive
Constantly setting itself on fire
Inhale, the dead language will choke the lungs like fever
Visions after visions will blur the reality with an eternal guilty desire
The lord of the flies will come and swim around like impalpable air
Recite and the sand will cage the rythm in the chest
On the ambivalance of life and death
One will see the crimson carpet
Of the carnival of flesh ........

Existence ..... such an unnecessary liability!
A paradigm of unimaginable perspective
But shift the paradigm one inch
All shall rattle and blend in such curious animosity
Embrace the forgotten skull
Of the once extinct sane race of neanderthal!
Gaze upon the clarity in silence
That we all hunted for eons
Part by part , bone by bone
Take off the clothing
Rip off the skin
Passionate love with all this dark (Atlast could it be!)
Such affection will leave a clandestine mark (a futile try, one cannot see!)
Come closer with the mark
All new and fresh
And at last one will be welcomed with open arms into the carnival of flesh ..........

Savor the meat
Of this putrid celestial beast
Oh! Why leave the bones?!
Bring forth the pearl white from the carcass
Feast some more
Send ripples across the threads
Enact a piece of spectacular exuberance
Dance little marionettes!
In our very own carnival of flesh .........
This ...... this maddening hymn forms the rhythm of absolute opulence
Participation is a must
Invitations are done
Don the mask and satisfy the masquerade
If not, how can one resist this intoxicating allure of mass psychosis?
Contemplate the ambiguity
Bring forth the searing guilt
Pour it all on the lone puppeteer
Satisfy the masqurade little puppets!
Burn with desire under such delicious insanity!
In our very own carnival of flesh ........

Knowing the love of art, despair snares the senses
Appear in most sedutive forms
Under a venomous pretense
Bodies grow accustomed to this all new lewd love charms
This grotesque spectacle leads the crowd far from the sight of God
Some die
some go insane
some breake with fatigue
And some enter a nameless wilderness
Deserted and broad ..........
Once all are tricked
The shadows will throw visions of festering wounds and filthy clothes
Into the bewildered eyes
The puppeteer will watch helplessly
The destruction's ****** reunite
No longer the dreams will stay in shapeless form
An empire of nightmares
The bed of fleur-de-lys becomes a tomb ......

Walk in silence
Oh! dear innocence
With blood as the surviving legacy
Walk soft, go slow
A tyrant's final solace in senility
Walk in the shadows
Up high and low
One is free from the allure
Now one can go
From the seat of eternity
A thousand weary eyes will watch this one soul go free from the timeless leash

One is fnally free

From the Cursed

Carnival Of Flesh ...........
