The Call.

You look into the mirror
You look real hard
You wonder if you should ask the question
You are so unsure.
You see what is on the surface
But you want to see within
You want to see the monster
That waits for the nighttime to

Red Light Blinking

Light keeps coming in uninterrupted

by obnoxious droplets that keep leaking from the sinks

indivisable blinking at the same rate

visible invisible visible invisible

visible visual language.

Red is letting it all in

underneath blood upholstered skin

salty tears and

the half way point between

where I am burning up the seats.

My sleep has lost its home

I close my eyes… Everynight pretending to play peek-a-boo with a hope and a burning desire… May be today…by mistake… it will find its way….and creep into my room slowly… Tip toeing its way shyly… into my eyes

Nostalgia…
A feeling that runs back
To the yester years…
When stress was unit test
A music competition around the corner
A project to be submitted along side
When rivalry was over a tiffin
Sharing notes
Or just changing a best friend

When every next day

Beware it rhymes

A tid is seen on cabbage heads

and sometimes near its mound

when one is discovered

What is the best  part

About a cuppa tea?

The bottom

That is where the honey bee.

This New Year means things need replacing!

All I have owned for awhile goes.

The old car turns itself off randomly;

My stereo amplifier turns itself up

Or its volume down just because;

In the same manner as

I want to be a coral reef gardner

   Growing the flowers of the sea

Mending boneyards in the wild pacific

   You know... I'd even work for free.

It wouldn't take much to keep me happy

   Just a pereo and a bikini

A little shelter for when it

Such simple pleasures I prefer

Than reckless love and desire.

The sound of bird’s call is moving

But It cannot break you’re heart.

I prefer the simple feel of things

I got too close to your flames

I retain the scars internally.

I got too immersed in your eyes

Now I’m transfixed on your absence

I relied too much on your words.

It is a danger to wonder.

My heart will cease to beat

It’s murder to remit the thoughts.

It is crazy to daily daydream

Corrode my veins Drain them dry;

Since when did I become the fucking Grim Reaper?

Did I wish this on myself?

Is it payback? More likely Karma!

Following me reminding me of the mortality

I took for granted so easily.

Drawing me in making me participate

Listen to the screams of agony

The sweaty whispers pleading for death

Cruddy downward eyes

I arise with sticky feet

Brainwaves bind

Weak week this week

What for why?

I served my time
