P.S: Its a bit sad i know but its in reply to an email a friend sent…
Good bye
Good bye my love.
Fallacies of this recalcitrant heart shall trouble you no longer.
For the skies in which its dreams flew is overcast with tears.
Good bye my love.
Tapestries of these tattered emotions shall choke you no longer
For the thread of hope that held it together is tangled beyond repair.
Good bye my love.
Cobwebs of eager questions shall addle you no longer
For the inquisitive words that spun endlessly have tumbled in despair!
Good bye my love.
Fountain of tender musings shall drown you no longer
For the walls that contained it has been broken asunder
Good bye my love,
Rainbows of my imagination shall color you no longer
For the bleakness of my grief has smeared it forever
Good bye my love, my capricious fantasy
From the shackles of my heart, I cast you free
Tonight….
Tonight lets write a poem
While you dwadldle with the meter
I shall find the rhyme.
Tonight lets write a poem
While I describe the twinkling stars and inky blue sky
You can play with the clouds flitting by
Tonight lets write a poem
While you carve out a beautiful phrase,
I shall steal the shine from your absent gaze
Tonight lets write a poem.
While I go through the whole gamut of emotions,
You can fly high on imagination…
so shall we write a poem tonight?
Picture this…
Acrostic prompts…..
Fear not
As trying it might seem
Incomparably difficult even;
This too shall pass and
Halcyon days awaits!
Bewitched
Behold my
Ebullient passion
Wambling
Instinctively
Towards
Crescendo
Hold me close as I,
Enraptured
Dissolve into ripples of pleasure
———————————————————-
Bosom heaves
Errant heart beats
Weak knees
Instinctively capsize
Tyrant you smile
Captive me,
Hold breath for that-
Elusive
Decadent pleasure
Prompted by : Acrostic only
Morning Glory
Merry
Opulent
Riveting
Nimble
Invasive
Nature’s
Gift
Glorious
Laxative,
Ornate,
Ravishingly
You enthrall!
Prompted at : Acrostic only
Breast Cancer -An acrostic
Blot out these-
Rebellious cells
Emerging
Aggravatingly
Scoop them out
Tarnished body wails!
Contours lost
Awry lines
Never will be set right
Cure elusive as I,
Endure in hope
Respite cannot be far
Prompted at : Acrostic poetry
P.S: It is not new.. I am struggling hard to find words to express my feelings.. and the words I do find.. seem not enough ! Anyhow.. this is my desperate attempt to finally write “poetry” I know this is not good enough.. and yet I love the first stanza.. what do you say ?
Spewing rubbish!
To see is not to see.
To be is not to be.
To lie is to say the truth
And to be honest is hornet’s nest
Let me just not see.
Let me just not be
I wonder what is this about
Nonsense I seem to spout!
But if randomness is not random
Wouldn’t that just mean
Something is yet to be gleaned?
I surround myself with emptiness.
It is never empty.
For nothingness holds just that.
Nothing.
I find myself time and again getting lost.
I find myself.
getting lost.
If I could just borrow words.
Transcend meanings..
May be then I can leave behind
This sinking feeling.
May be then I shall
Expel this “if” and this “may be”
From my vocabulary.
If only!
Song of my life
