Ethereal


Haunting 
The many moods of a yesteryear bond
Engraved deep in my bruised soul

Flimsy
My excuses, my reasoning, my denials
To shield the truth from poisoned grins

Frazzled
My mind, my true self
As they long to reach out, still

Fresh
The rides in the rain, the hugs, the kisses
The eyes into which I fell but never drowned

Hope
What eludes me, forcing me onto my knees
Battering my wits with that sinking feeling

Love
The only thing that survived the tempest
And still hoping against hope to relive the pain

Ethereal
The passion which glued our souls together
Our love, for we were crazy for the laws of the land

Recurring
Even the miniscule emotion which lit up our world
The telepathy we still share, long after the goodbyes

Till the last mile...


Forgive my senses
For they seek the warmth
Of that now forgotten embrace
Which glued our souls together

Forgive my lips
For they seek the pleasure
Of our wettest kiss
Which lasted forever

Forgive my dreams
For they wander back to you
Longing to stand by you
As you struggle to find answers.

Forgive my madness
For my soul longs
To spoon you with a promise
To keep loving you till the last mile

Forgive my senses, or the lack of it
For they chase my pretensions away
And tries in vain to make me believe
That you’ll be back before long.

Angel on a death wish

I feel alive
For I feel the heat
Of an angel on a death wish
Ankle-deep in quicksand
Plotting, pacing her fall

I feel cursed
For I lack the fight
To look through her silly mask
Breathe some air of hope
And help her fly again

I feel miserable
For she is my friend
May be even a muse
Who walked in
A wee bit late in the day
When I am on a free fall
To the very bowels of hell

I feel numb
For her song makes me smile
And overwhelmed at the same time
Leaving me gasping
Like a fish out of water

I feel betrayed
For the timing’s wrong
For a few moons earlier
She would’ve lived
The life she deserved
Even if I went down trying
