Tomorrow...

When we grow a little old and when our hair shows the shiny hint of grey..
I shall tell you a lot of stories..and capture your " awe " your "smile"
Capture your surprise ..the glitter in your eyes ..
Capture the moments with your hand on your forehead...
your contracting eyes, meeting .. my cheeks turning red...
... and count the number of times you say..
"did you actually do that..??!!!"
The stories would be all that I do today..shying what if you come to know !!!
The stories of my young little heart !!

Chance Encounter

In a sweep of a single glance,
on the hair’s breath of a kiss.
It was almost nothing,
... but more than enough.
For I got a taste of you,
and I long for nothing else.
Since that chance encounter....

Silence all around

“You’ve been quiet, a little sedate of late.”
She probes, hoping I will take the bait.
“I’m fine, Kiddo everything's well.”
... I’m lying like hell, she can tell.
She studies me, eyes raking over my face,
looking for my hidden reasons, a sadness she can’t trace.
“I’m going to be fine” words that make me wince.
Later, I wonder who I was trying to convince….

She looks away

She looks away-
Tormented by their looks of understanding.
She looks away-
Betrayed by the tears forming in her eyes.
She looks away-
Hurting deeply on the inside.
She looks away-
She laughs and jokes,
but wants to die -and she knows not
the reason why.

Randomness

The hipster said 
“I’d like to light you again sometime
Like a pack of Marlborough cigarettes.”
Then he threw his cigarette to the ground,
And left her the same way he found her--
Lost to the night.
Her curls fell to her face,
Covering her eyes:
Black as the night,
Deep as the void inside...

Smiling while she dies inside

Life is a fairground of thrills and excitements,
With disappointments along with the rides.
This beautiful woman lives life to the full,
But she's smiling while dying inside.
Oh! Beautiful woman, so kind and so generous,
You're allowed to be human , you know.
You don´t have to always keep the stiff upper lip
Brave face,.. best foot forward,...let's go....
Emotional death need not be final.
A resurrection of joy can be found.
A soul and a heart can learn to recover.....
Let someone in...let someone know you...
Don't waste your life pretending for others,
You have wings. You can soar.... You can glide....
You'll do it, for sure, though I know for the moment,
You're smiling, while dying inside.

City in vain

Welcome to the city
This city is in vain..
My head...In flames
My eyes...On fire
I chose this pain
Welcome to the City..my name is Regret
I will be your tour guide this evening...
I see slight glimpses of your inner masochist....
when you smile at the pain you're feeling,
And you see hidden indications of my inner sadist....as I smile back at you :)
