to Marge

you .
self-assured
assuming i'd understand.
everything .
went unsaid.
i .
lay unsuspecting.unassuming.
an open window.
consumed by the inheritance.
determination.ambition.
crushed.
a new face and a new life.
and a stranger.
walking towards
a sure
destiny.
richesse and largesse.
blurred lines of separation.
mine and yours.
and yet.
love reigns.
gulping down all expression.
i stand mutely.
at the doors of heaven.
knocking.
finding no response
i turn.
you
ambivalence.
i am but a follower.
the sparrow and her tiny tots.
blind.bound.
truth.
and the end of red.

Eureka Eureka!

I cracked a silly joke You humored me I was childish about so many things You were patient I told you I was sleepless You worried about me I jumped with joy after my results You jumped with me I was scared to be Jo-less You were there for me I wanted a shoulder to lean on You gave me yours I panicked I'd lost a friend You heard me out I fought with M You calmed me down I worried about D You consoled me I was confused about life You guided me I was lost and aimless You showed me the way I was unstable and unsure You were my rock I was so blind about things You said "It's for keeps " I just want to tell you how much I value,treasure and love you And want you to know That I,too, want "it" for life..

one two three

old habits die hard. a moment of suspended animation all clear and blue. grains of sand. peals of laughter dying away. singing their lonely song. i see a distant vision one two three. and years of love. one weak moment and years of pain. three -to-one. three.two.ONE. fragmented mind, body and soul. a crash a fall a howl and me measure for measure tale for tale. One two three again! years and years of gain. darkness or white. i know not. swallow and chew and taste and bite. a lingering shadow sweetness and haste. and more of them to follow...

going going gone...

long and dark ochre and brown. following every movement. with careless elegance. unruly curls. grazing your face. a crooked smile. going going gone. a decade of longing. doors unlocked. shores beckoning. geckos gliding on the bathroom wall. a generosity rarely seen. two little blocks of ice in the canteen and delhi. the ever reigning Queen. a Hull of glasses. far far away. waters and ships and glorious days. speeding by in a sailing ship. a mountain of confidences waiting to fly. but i know i shall have to ponder and cry. what realm of difference does it make? some tea,kind sir? or heavenly cake? yet the shadows of the past walk by. piercing through cries of the morrow. a future ,in wait. for you and me. eyes closed. a camouflage. an apparition of events and sweet smelling nights.
