RIP

Something died inside me last night
When I saw human forms spread on the road
Awaiting someone to rescue them
I hoped someone will save them
Hoping and praying, I passed by
I didn't stop, just let them be
But something breathed its last
Apparently it was the poet inside me
Who till sometime back was trying to take birth

  1. The poet doesn't breathe her last, because this is a good poem.
    I remembered some poem about driving along a mountain road in the night and the headlights picking up a deer run over by a passing truck and the driver of this car stopping to find the baby in the animal's belly still alive, but he, after a moment of indecision, pushing the dead animal with the live baby in its belly over the ledge so that the road is cleared and made safe for other motorists of the night.

    I think it important that you paused a moment on the way and is aware.

Perfect vacation

Coffee, shades and the beach To be happy in life What else do you need?!

You

If I look back, I see you... If I look ahead, I see you... If I close my eyes, I see you... If I dream, I see you... You are all around me... With your words, you touch my heart With your love, you touch my soul Still, my heart aches for your warm touch My whole life revolves around you, My Sun... You are the closest.... Still, you are so far...

Foes? Friends?

Knock-knock Oh! someone is here... Pleasing, good natured... a friend I get elated But even before happiness could fade away My dream shatters With a heavy heart... we part One goes... only to make way for another Once again I wake up to the reality Tired, I go back to my dream world Only to be woken up by another Knock-knock
