So.. Random!!

A promise held close to the heart
A thousand pieces of those shattered dreams, which prick your bleeding feet as you try to move on, move ahead...
Try as hard as you can, the pain just doesn't subside..
That intricate blend of joy and playfulness
A whispered word of togetherness...
One final blow, which breaks the years of efforts taken...
One additional last breath needed, there’s so much left unsaid n undone!!
Joy, laughter, sorrow, pain..
Living death, fighting through the odds...
Seeing beyond the scars…
Making it work...
Trying level best to make things the way they were before..
Relations patched beyond recognition..
Scraps of fabric visible amidst the countless patches..
Your apologies- they don’t mean a thing!
Scribbling furiously on a paper, people stop and smile..
The innocent giggle of that chubby little child...
Why is this world so full of corruption??
No one to trust, but thy own self...
Why do I hate him so much??
No, I don’t hate him, but obviously I’m hurting...
A thousand unanswered questions...
At times, finding oneself so helpless...
Helpless... Hopeless... Lifeless...
Are circumstances really dat bad as you imagine them to be??
Life comes and goes...
Love it... Hate it... Live it... or Die...
Just like dat!!

MIRAGE.....

A tiny little blue bird, flying across the sky
Making it a point to ask every passer-by

Do you know the way to a place?
That has a red roof-top and a white fence
Surrounded by lush meadows and deep green trees
Ever alive with the chirping of birds and bees

In that haven, there lives a little girl
Who must be wondering where I could be
Sobbing fat salty pearls of tears
Waiting beside my cage near the cherry tree

I'd been selfish when I flew away
Never stopped even for a moment to think
Snatching a sole companion from a girl her age
How big a grief that angel would need to face!!

I was mesmerized by those thoughts of freedom
But now, looking back, I'm besieged by woe
Even if I'm crowned the sole master of this blue kingdom
What good is a life when you have no one to love you??

Little did I knew, when I broke free
That to return, I'll have to endure every plea
Mistakes I've committed, now I'll rectify
Can you please help me, Oh passer-by??

Maybe I do have a family somewhere
Parents and siblings who all crave for me
But the innocent love of that kid was pure and rare
What I had before was surely the best for me

They say birds are meant to fly in the sky
Till date, one staunch believer of this was me
No one ever told me the perils of flying alone
Now, by her side, I where I wanna be

Our life isn’t ours alone; to others we owe
A selfish heart can never beget selfless love
My prayers will be answered if she takes me back home
Else I’ll have to trudge unloved, all alone.

So, you see, I really have to make haste
Before her hurting heart replaces agony by hatred
I’m ashamed and remorseful, I have to say
So please help me, and show me the way..
