Your  heart is filled with unconditional love
That you selflessly share with all
Your arms are always wide open
They've always been my destination
When I'm worried and scared beyond doubt
You toil through immense difficulties
Just to see me smile
In silence you suffer through pain and sorrow
But never can you see a single tear
Trickle down from my eyes
You never panic when circumstances become compelling
you brace yourself to fight
You're my constant companion
Through thick and thin in life
No one can take your place
No one is made to take your place
You're a goddess in disguise
My mother
I wish you live a long happy life

The day begins with a badly burned tawny sun rearing its head up impatiently waiting for the dusk to gather and ends with a pale ashen moon casting its feeble light in vain to diminish the overwhelming darkness all around.But i'm determined to see more than this.Tell me that the sun is beaming today kissing the sky a scintillating golden revealing a most breathtaking summer afternoon and the moon's lustre is beckoning me to spend the night under its ethreal radiance and i'll believe you.
The distended day feels like a colourless ocean and i dont know how to swim.So i spend my time thrashing its vacuous waves struggling to remain just above its surface so i can almost breathe with a slight difficulty.But i intent on feeling more than this.Hold my hand,crack a few inane jokes. I'll laugh so hard you'll have to press your hands to your ears but the sound of laughter in an empty house always echoes thunderously isnt it.I feel incredibly  peaceful when the heavy night surrounds me
Its my refuge my sanctuary till dawn breaks mercilessly through my window and shatters the thick layers of brooding silence all around me.The thrumming universe outside
rarely alights my curiosity.I'm a mute spectator when i step outside,hardly discernible specially when the sudden onslaught of wind knocks me down at a desolate corner of the street.But if you try to show me that the hush of the morning is filled with serenity and is more blissful than the sulking silence of the night then i'll readily abandon my sanctuary .Tell me that my footsteps have the strength to carve fissures on this earth and the pulsating rhythm that i hear outside can be heard from inside of me too.I will be genuinely interested then in exploring the different facets of life with you.Will you just try a little bit to make me believe slowly that i'm capable of living like you and not just existing like this?i insist that you do so.

Im a devastated and dilapidated wreck
With loads of ******* scattered all around
You'll discover no valuable asset in me
Even if you dig through me for hours
Or drill holes inside me with the sharpest and searing tools you've got
You'll only pierce yourself
And end up with a fairly bruised flesh
With throbbing pain
Dust will cloud your vision
Tears will cascade down your eyes
Grime will clog your lungs
You'll gasp and grasp for breath
Filth will settle on the creases of your palms and will make you feel nauseated
But no treasure will you ever be able to unearth
You'll only find yourself slowly submerged under my derelict mess
Before long
You'll become a part of my shattered dominion

Beneath my painted skin
Caramel brown eyes
Lined precisely with a black ink
Flicked at the end
Forming the most exquisite wing
Roseate lips coloured with an oxblood maroon
A peachy radiance
Emanating from the apples of my cheeks
There's a heart
Tenderly beating
And a soul
That desires love
Try to look beneath
And reach for it
Rather than gaping and grabbing a corner of my surface
Which causes nothing but sheer pain in me

I'll write to you
I'll write for you
That's the only thing
That soothes my soul
When your thoughts become overwhelming
And start trickling from every corner of my mind
When the ripples of your voice
Bounce back  from the deepest recesses of my being
When the flickering stars at night
Remind me of that glimmer that used to dance  in your eyes
When the crescent moon nestled between the clouds
Reminds me of your smile
When the dense dark sky stretching above
Reminds me of your thick ebony locks
And the spiral waves kissing a moonlit shore
Reminds me of those beautiful curls
With which you were naturally blessed
The rosy blooms of spring
Reminds me of your scarlet lips
And  the rising sun each day
Fills me with a renewed hope and strength to find you again
When the languishing sun each evening
Casts a feeble light upon my empty bed
My tears glisten in the dying embers of sunset
And the cradle of my heart begins to yearn for you again
Before an ashen moon rears it's pale head
And another vacant day comes to an end

From the cracks in the sidewalks
of old weather beaten tracks
With gravel roads full of grime and dust
Near dilapidated walls
Where days old refuse has accumulated
And the air lacks it's unique fresh scent
You find a way to thrive and shine
And your smile grows wide
As the sun sails by
Even though you won't be able to change your spot
This forgotten decrepit place
Will be your home throughout your life
Yet you don't seem to mind at all
For you've carved your happiness here
A happiness that seems to last
Even when you're surrounded by grey crumbling life
Day in and day out
You've found a reason to breathe and boom
you're unperturbed by what's around
And that's the reason your beauty sparkles
Way more than those who grow in perfectly manicured lawns

You were a cold hearted magician
Skilled in the art of trickery and deciet
It was so easy for you
To carve an illusion of your undying love and compassion
And it is so difficult for me
To still believe
That I was only a passing object of your fascination
The comfort and warmth that I absolutely believed
I could find in you
Was only a figment of my imagination
With your second trick
you made it painfully clear
That I was only one of the many stations
At which you paused
Took a breath
And then left
When your work was done
