Silent Sanctuary Mar 2015
Intoxicated by constant pessimism,
I've thrived along continual sentiment extrication;
Losing seas of well ridden thoughts ending across chastism,
A lovely catastrophe for a bereaved chance, desiring a soul's amotion.

Silver daggers of words slowly sinking deep with crude,
Leaving me grasping for a golden rope to hold on to;
Noir evil clouds filled with repressed memories, feinting to allude;
Murdering slowly, coalescing a suicide plot to end a thing or two.

A bleeding lot shattered and left behind,
When you kissed my lips with such lust and endeavor.
Only meaning to part a mark and confuse my mind;
I wished for long beats of love but it was only a game nothing more.

Tongue tied forever I will be,
Yearning for several firsts together that will never come.
Until death takes our souls and lets me see;
That our hearts once beat together for one another like rain drums.
Perspectives, complications, and such.

Dawn of the monsoons it was,
Heaven was already proclaiming it’s aphorism,
Seemed to me as if god was performing an act of chastism.
With a cup of tea near the window pane,
The past reeling in front of my eyes, had put me in vain.

Gazing out of the window, sipping the scorching tea,
“Carpe Diem” and I recalled a pixie.
Past was all gone, just by a thought of her,
Losing her was the only thing I had feared.

For being a part of each other’s lives,
Meeting physically wasn’t important we thought.
Heedless of the reason why I shared with her,
Every battle that I mentally fought.


Every morning in the corridor, lost in her own thoughts she was,
Missing every alternate step of the staircase, I tried to find out the cause.
She wouldn’t let me know that, she was stubborn,
Exceptionally dazzling was her presence, just like a pleasant nocturne.

“I ain’t beautiful!”, said she,
Everytime I saw her my heart skipped a heartbeat.
Physical beauty holds no importance, is what I had always told her,
The alluring soul she had, made her redolence like a myrrh.

Life is not always about tying the knots,
Sometimes you need to connect the dots.
Some relationships couldn’t be defined as they have their own meanings,
She was the girl who could turn autumn into springs.

Her presence in my life made each moment grand,
Days passed like that, together we impression-ed our footprints in the sand.  
The rain had stopped and empty was my cup of tea,
I could still feel her presence, her presence that completed me.
