A short Poem


Hi to all, this is a first in a series of short poems that I shall be writing over the course of the next few years. These are basically experiences, some real and some imaginary that I thought would be nice to pen down.


Do let me know in the comments section below what you think about these.

Enjoy!!

Footprints on the sand of time: A heartbreak

She sat there, wailing and shouting at him over her phone,
Why does he not care about her?
Poor girl, maybe she loved him more than he deserved
She had flown off to a far away land
She had given her all to him
And that day they talked, they talked and talked
The boy in vain tries to explain his problems
The boy tries his reasons, she listens to them.
It was never that he didn’t love her
He knew there couldn’t be anyone better.
It was his attitude to life that had created the gaps.
Perhaps she understood, perhaps she didn’t
And then a while later, silence took over, time stood still.
Slowly the boy starts breaking down,
All the memories with her haunts him like a nipping needle
A tear rolls down the boy’s cheek,
The girl sees it, she doesn’t bulge;
And more memories, ‘the dinner dates’, ‘the short trips’, ‘ her birthday’
‘Bike rides’,‘Football’, all of them flashes before his eyes.
He couldn’t believe he’ll be missing these.
Slowly memories take their toll on him
And slowly he melts into a harrowing, heart-rending sob.

Farewell

Do you hear the fleeting 'Time'?  Its chariot ceaselessly , giving rise to new impulses every moment? It gives rise to the first cry of a child     from a mother's womb As if a nascent star,     exploding into life     from the deepest of cosmic darkness. My Friend,     that same fleeting time, today grasps me in its tentacles,     and draws me upon itself, towards a journey undefined     far far further away from you . . .  As if, the light of dusk     today gradually melts into darkness; Having lost my identities along the trail     I fade away into the distance. My Friend,               .  .  . Farewell!

Do Let me know..

When you're sad at heart, And want to share; When you're closed inside An opening is all you care, When the mood is hefty, And would need a lighten; When the times are tough And situations need a brighten, When you feel lonely, And some company won't bother; When life is constrained And would love to talk rather, Remember me O lady, Me is up you know; Whenever ye want to see me ...Do let me know.

A working man's thoughts

The man returned from work and fell fast asleep, He dreamt of a beautiful childhood day. The sun was bright and the cool breeze brisk. The onset of spring was evident. He dreamt of meeting his childhood friends. They had planned to go cycling together into the woods. Life was a lot simpler then. No fear of losing the daily battles, no worries about what the future holds. In his dream he met God. Unable to hold himself together, he asks, "God, how do I go back to those good old days?." "Son", smiled God, "..use the gift of 'Dream' .  " Suddenly, a repetitive sound disturbed his sleep. He checked his watch. It's 6 a.m. Time to get ready for work.
