I think I’m done writing....

Or at least taking a break....

Not quite sure yet....

Happy Holidays if I’m not back before then....

Goodbye for now...
Guddi,  this was written on 09Jul '11.....

A cute little walkie-talkie doll,
Fair, plump,lovely long hair et all;
A pout she would put often on,
When angry with anyone or Shaun.

Today our princess has met her prince ;
Has suddenly grown up ever since.
Like our Shez, she too will soon leave us.
Leaving in our heart n life,  a void thus.

Tomorrow is her Roka, soon thereafter her engagement.
Girls grow so very fast ; leaving their dear ones after a little merriment.
"Time and tide wait for no one ", is a saying true.
That's why these two cute sisters, very fast grew.
Wishing you both, all the v best in life,, always.

A friend asked me
how to be a writer.
I wanted to say,
lock yourself in a room,
scream until you have
a poem and no voice.
Open your veins and bleed
until you know that your bones
are pure words and sorrow.
Act as if you slit your own throat
and all you can bleed
are your own regrets
and all of the darkness
you boxed up for inspiration.
Write your mom a letter,
tell her you're leaving
and you won't be back for awhile
Because being a writer is traveling
through all seven layers of Hell
and denying anything is wrong.
Forget loving yourself
when all you have is a pen and paper
fused to your wrist
and Jesus is tapping at your skull
saying turn back now.
Warn the neighbors that if they smell burning
It's just your soul
clawing at the front door trying to get in.
Learn how to be alone.
Learn how to lose everything you have
in order to feel release,
learn how to only feel deceased
from now on.
A friend asked me
how to be a writer.
All I said was
don't
I am already dead,
just too lazy
and apathetic
to make it official.
I am already dead.

It was my pleasure,
To get my heart broken by you!

I am sorry,
But tell me would you mind
If I visualize you in my dreams
Or keep you in my heart
For forever?

Walk straight through the
Shattered pieces of my
Heart and altered ego!
Ignore me, go away
Just use me and throw away.

But trust me!
When its all over
At the end
You will still find me
On your side!

Even if I don't want to
My heart will keep on
Cantillating your name
For forever!
To the girl who stole me from myself!

Am I trying to help you
Because your pain
Is too much for you to bear
Or because seeing you like this
Is too much for me to bear
I love him
I tell myself
I know that
We will be together forever
I don’t believe that
We could be separated
My thoughts tell me that
He’s the love of my life
Sometimes my heart lies and says
I could live an eternity
Without him
Like my friends say
“We’re perfect for each other”
And you can’t tell me
He’s not the one.

Now read from bottom to top.

I sold my soul
to poetry
because the devil
rejected it
he told me
"it's too fiery for hell
it'll do better
melting hearts"
