Departure

 I have picked my favorite flowers for my own funeral

And I have created a playlist of my favorite songs to play once I am gone

My departure dress is all ironed and scented, hung rightmost in my wardrobe, 

And I have carefully enveloped last love notes, pressed nicely in my jewelry box

I plan to leave just the way I met you

All giggles, magical and unannounced

I have been loved in this beautiful world

I have given love, and more than I thought I had

So, wave me bye, and smile while you do that

No hanging threads, no turmoil

I will see you here and there in this wonderful world

Our paths may cross again, maybe in another disguise, in another lifetime

Until then, remember me with my lovely smile

Until then, remember to wear your beautiful smile  



- LOVE :)

Phases


People are just phases
In the longer phase called life
In the shorter span called phase
Each arrives and so do they pass
Giving you what it was here for
Taking from you what it was meant to
But the memories linger
For many phases to come up
Some are fragrant, some are not
Most are bitter but a few still sweet
But you got to understand
That ‘the’ phase has passed
The person is gone
Not far far away yet far away
And when you feel too happy
Remember,
People are phases
And this too shall pass!

Catastrophe


It was a cumbersome night

And I woke up with the same nag of thoughts

My mind was still there, stuck,

Not relieved by the sleep, not even an inch

His memory, still stung like a bee

And with a swelling this time

It has started to show on my skin!  

I cry in the bathroom and the gallery

To vent out or try so at least,

He never liked me on my own you see,

And now his memories ensure the agony

Such is my own Catastrophe!!

Roadtrip



Life is a road trip
There are smooth stretches for a 200km/hr speed
And bumps to give mini fractures to everyone on the wheel
And there are views changing with every passing second
Scenic landscapes and mystical clouds
Moon to follow and wind to entwine with the soul
And there are also remote areas,
Barren, beaten and unkempt
Its mandatory to look at everything – it all comes in the package you know
You get down after hours of drive
Exhausted and jammed knees
Stretch yourself a bit and enjoy the round about scenery
Take a little break, give yourself a little shake
And get on the vehicle
To continue the journey
Destination is important but not more than the voyage
And then you look at your people
Sitting next to you in the car
And you make a little talk and once again get behind the wheels
But you have now learnt for the next bump and the potholes
You know that you need to slow down and you can easily avoid the jerking
And it would be so amazing before you get back on that 200km/hr track
Oh all this distress will be so worth just for that little fun
Just for that fun, you take it all
The bumps and the goosebumps and the jerks and the jacks
But you don’t stop and you don’t get scared
And you know in your heart, that’s the best bit of this adventure
You will come back a changed man filled with tales
This trip will give you pleasure as much as it gave you pain
…..
Life is such a Roadtrip
Let it come as it may!

Solo Show

Real wars are fought alone,

Honest tears trickled behind closed doors,

Mirrors gazed longer when lonely,

Perpetual peace earned in solace,

Lyrics absorbed than music in abandonment,

Poetry free flows only in solitude

Love associated more with absence than presence,

And real happiness comes only when truly yourself!

Love, Damage and Healing

@kaveeshaklicks #Bhuleshwar
There is so much rupture,
So much damage,
Yours and mine..
And still we allow all this!
We let this happen,
Between us, to us;
Taking a toll, isn’t it on us?
But yet we won’t leave the stupid ego,
The self-respect as we like to fondly call it..
We would let it scare the bejesus out of us
Take out the soul, throw it out of the damn window
And won’t even stop loving, somewhere deep down the heart
Waste the emotions, discard the passions,
All for what,
All this damage?
Let’s not rupture anymore , Let’s only heal
Each other and everyone around
We all need help
Let’s not expect but just love
Love unconditionally without any bounds
Let them have their space and ours just fine
Love is not rupture
Let’s believe in this again, with all our might
This damage is not worth it,
Maybe only love will heal this with time!

Shambles

The Pink Black Hole 

The Night was deepening, 

And they were both in shambles;

Reminiscing their own pieces,

Picking them one by one,

They spoke to each other in signs; 

Told each other to read between the lines.

Exhaling a little fake laughter every now &  then,

Fearing the night, fearing the next sun!  

Longer the conversation went, harder it became to hide,

They both missed right now,

What slipped from their hands...in time!

Run Along with The Horses


I want to run along with the horses,
Blacks and whites,
Feathery and tide,
In the sepia sun, in the dawning light;
I want to run,
Without any ties!!

I want the wind to embrace me and hug me tight,
Dust in my hair but heart just all right,
Please don't call my name or I shall abide,
Don't you see, i want to run like I am flying!

The nerves would race and I will stop to catch a breathe,
Will hold my knees but the heart shall dance,
The horses won't get tired and keep up with the run,
My eyes shall enjoy this but in due course of time!

I will understand I could only run so far
That the horses will fly and I will have to now stop..

But for now....,
I want to run along with the horses, 
Blacks and whites;

Without any ties !

Explode in me!



Confide in me
Escape in me
What you have been
wanting to say for so long
...
Explode in me!

I will be your tinted glass
I will be your wall of stone
I will not break nor let it out
I will absorb it all
...
You,
Scream in me!

Talk it out
Let it out
Worry not,
Just say it aloud
....
Hide in me!

No words shall be spoken back,
No advice down the drain

Your heart may just smoke it out
And it shall all be gone with the wind
....
Have some faith in me!


But, 
As I said, 
....
Explode in me!


Sometimes all you want is to have a pair of sturdy ears, and no tongue, You don't want to be advised or told what to do, you just need to blast it out, without any revert. I wish i had someone like this, for me!!

The Night Roads


Glistening and calm,
Tired from the day and stretching their arms,
The long curves of the empty roads,
And us breaking their little nap

The midnight trees bend to make a little love,
And the breeze sets in just the perfect mood,
Neon dividers radiate even more,
And us diving through the glorious slope,

The night was deep and without any moon,
Only them and us and a little song,
We let them go back to the nap as we pass
And us riding further, stirring their pause!




The next time you go for a midnight ride, carry this little thought with you, 
You might be disturbing silence of many, let them make their love, let them unite with the peace.

Scar


A Scar
A Stitch
A Twitch, 


A History, 
A Mystery
A Story, 

A Pain
A Remembrance 
A Resurrection, 

A Memory,
A Story
A Scar..!! 



PS- Scars are sexy to have! Coz they carry a history, a story and something else than usual eyes/lips to remember in a face! \

PSS- I Have One!

Hope is the only Dope


I just know
that I can see the start of it all-
The one which is sure to crumble me
and won't leave me unaffected

The end is far & misty
but I have a walking stick
of my faith and the love of my folks,
to lead me through the fog &...
I have my thank u note already ready for the best!

My fingers will be crossed,
for the better and the best
for their happy souls and my ultimate peace
and I don't wish to pretend this time
for I take it all destined,
and still pray for a beautiful destiny in hold

Let the best happen for the rest of it all
let the end overshadow the beginning of this misery
and then I will say

I have seen it all!
