…I thought ’twas one of the odd days of loveWhere the curls of your hair will walk away from me,And still, respond with a wink.Where dashing for the doorknobWas just a way you expressed anger and disgust—It wasn’t. At least, it could’ve been voiced—this breakup,Or probably said over lunch,But it came with a beep—A textContinue reading “LOST IN BETWEEN DAWNS”

WHY DOES SHE COME
Why does she come, when she knows my love is nothing, but hell?Why does she come, when she knows I have nowhere to dwell?Why does she come, when she knows I own neither gold nor pearl? Maybe, it’s love—I guess so,Or she just likes my inner glow. I can’t tell, But I know, in aContinue reading “WHY DOES SHE COME”

PAIN WITHIN
Let me pour forthThe pain I feel within,And the tears my womb harbourTill I shrivel and die,For whom I praise Has sprouted as a whoreAmid beautiesThat pride as monarchs. Truly, I have experienced hellIn so many a way,But your love defined a furnaceWhich birthed hell itself. Can I ever be revived again?Time, please speakBefore karmaContinue reading “PAIN WITHIN”

YESTERDAY’S DAWN
Here I stand,On the spot of our first day of meeting,On the spot we said, ‘yes,’On the spot we stamped our vestige(?) Thinking, maybe, that ‘it’s over’ was just a dream of yesterday,But it wasn’t. How could you? How could youMake me sleep on your words?My life was rung round your promises,Promises of an unendingContinue reading “YESTERDAY’S DAWN”

LADY OF YESTERDAY’S DREAM
POETRY 5648 Dear Lady of yesterday’s dream, You were my sleepless nightsAnd well played melodies.You were my addictionAnd your amber eyes; my flicker of hope. I was once a maundererA Lone Ranger with a confused heart.You gave meaning to my worthless lifeAnd stung me with betrayal’s smile.I deserved better than your white lies. That yesterday,YouContinue reading “LADY OF YESTERDAY’S DREAM”
