serrated leaves
berated dreams
a lake bursting at seams
nothing is any more
what it seems
balloon got burst
the balloon got burst
when i tried to blow
lot more air than it could contain
why did i try
the impossible
was i testing the resilience?
or was it a hope that things do stretch when pushed
but
no somethings dont
they just remain untransformed
they burst for a while
do they
from pink to darkness
indifferent moss
whispers
like a benign tumour
i will not remove you completely
from my body
listen
walk
see
observe
laugh
but cleverness will not last very long
some day some body will
tell you that
calculus of this kind does not last
very long
so dance till weather is good
and friends take you out
in a world of mimicry all over
loud sounds
bright lights
and no whispers can be heard any more
but then she always tell her wishes in whispers
Ma kali is listening to our conversation
she knows who has been betrayed by whom
marks of a hard grip
far above the clouds, amidst some trees
there was a small hut
on the top of the hills
where i was waiting for you
to come
and hold my hand
and take me to that blissful valley
where apple trees dont need to be protected any more
where springs flow without caring
about the stubborn rocks
coming in the way
but that did not happen
isnt that good, else
we will be still recovering form the marks
of hard grip on my wrist
a ray of hope indeed
manure of their dreams
marigold flowers
why would someone throw away
the beautiful flowers
because these are tied with a string
which was used for tying a corpse
of memories
that could not be buried
and hence was found floating on a river
like a discarded garland of marigold flowers
is it that i ask for too much
why should each ballon burst
just when
i think
it will fly so high
that
i will be able to listen to
the whispers of clouds
dark, unsure, but willing
to embrace the rays of
a tired sun
why do these sprouts fall short
of my expectations
is it that i ask for too much
or is it otherwise
i give in too much, too soon
