I Will Be....

This is the start of a trilogy of poems..... A series of 3 poems, more so to say a story. I think I started out with this idea thinking it was something new. I have no clue on how this will come out. The 3rd poem in the trilogy is something I am still working on. Do let me know what you think of it.....


Those days, when everything was so right,
The heart that was beating for her, every day every night,
The eyes that only wanted to see her,
The mind, how beautiful she was, just to wonder,
The ears only to listen to what she was going to say,
Loving her every moment, pondering - she too may,
She didn’t break my heart,
She tore “me” apart,
The very reason for my being was defeated…..Or so I thought,
The only greenery in my life now going through a drought…..
I don’t know why she didn’t love me ……………
Was it something about the way she wanted me to be?
Was it something else in me she looked for?
She didn’t tell me………
I still wander in search of the reason…
She set my thoughts free,
And no matter autumn or spring….or any other season,
Life has to go on … I have to be…
I can’t lose myself to her memories…
I need to know what life has in store for me…
That gives me a reason to live …
And no matter what, I will be…!!!!!!

Becoming...

I choose now to write A thought about Thoughts, a tale about Feelings. How I wanted to, But, did not speak up or express. I chose, but, To be hurt, To feel betrayed, Disappointed,   by The ones I thought never will Defeated in every path, I chose Stopped time I did, Flipped a few pages back, And stared at life, As an outsider, a stranger With no judgment… I wanted to And failed To say no, to opine To choose differently To be happy and Not carry the burden of My choices. I chose the sorrow, I chose betrayal, I chose yesterday, I chose today. I chose to become. Alas! Time waits for no one, I lay with my eyes open, On a bed of choices and doubts. Pages of life turned to A tomorrow with hope, New paths to pave A path to a new Becoming…

Master of None (?!)

And I keep returning to the blogosphere with one thing or the other. Here goes another cryptic mess here. Are you the master of your choice?  Bright and vibrant eyes, A soothing voice, Helpful demeanor, Subtle yet present curves, A shapely dress, Highlighting them all, As if she wasn't already attractive enough. She called out to him, Gently nudging for attention, From time to time. No matter how big the crowd, He ogled at her unabashedly, Never let her out of sight, Or an arm's length. She wasn't new in his life, Nonetheless, she managed... To morph in many ways From time to time Just for his attention And he, for her Diabolical, was she? One fine day… He sat with his back, Turned away from her, Like he cared - For the world around him. As he looked up and around, All that was left was... Burned bridges, Withering flowers, Fallen leaves, Decadence of life as he knew it And an insignificant ray of hope.

Me, myself & joy....

My back faced the window at The Brew Room. I was engrossed with a few spreadsheets and documents. My coffee arrived. The girl with a very subtle smile on her face served it and was pleasantly shocked when I said thank you and smiled at her. So much so, I could see a small amount of blood rush to her thin, long and meek face that brought an involuntary smile across it.  She turned back and walked away to avoid further eye contact.  In some time, the sun, as it went about it's day moved further west and shone through parts of the windows of the coffee shop. The tree cover and the sun rays had a battle of sorts while the shadows played along. I had youtube dishing out AR Rahman's melodies one after the other. I suddenly felt a warmth on my back. A few sneaky rays of sunshine diffused through the gaps in the leaves to make it in and bring new life into my workplace. I took off my earphones, sat there observing the cheerful people around me and the near perfect day.  To m
