dark could signify life!

[picture courtesy : Catherine ]


the summer heat parched the clay
God on a prosaic mind!
barren land and dry wood
awaiting the drizzle of life!

sky darkened above the hills
mist engulfed the glade
clouds appeared as angels
draped in those sensuous dishabille!

dark and dreary, envisioning rain
the forest stood aspiring life!
nature's subtle way of explaining
dark could signify life!

Not every dark phase in your life is a punishment. Some makes you learn and some helps you grow. Face your life as it comes, the darker strokes could make the final picture more beautiful!

read my bro's take on shadows and light here

random thoughts - confused soul!

i miss you my friend.

the cool breeze and starry night

tells me you are near!

I have a question for you all. Could you ever fall in love with your friend? [i] if Yes - What makes you believe that he/she could be part of your life? [ii] if No - What makes you believe a friend could not be your soul mate?

shattered

tears, tiny droplets of unnamed emotions

purest form of love, hatred and fear,

reflection of my mind, my inner soul

wash me from my anguish, make me pure.

love was never a game, oh unknown

my life and roles in it made it one!

the hurdles seemed so long, I endured

the mission, the changing rules, failed me win.

levels changed and so did the game

survival became the name of my aims!

alone, not lonely I played the game

memories of forgotten fuelled my life.

moving on, I knew what's on my way

yet you made me choke, oh love long gone,

you said you knew me in and out

yet failed to know my tears for you!

the game console blinked, one last message

the dire choice " Game Over. Play Again? "

tears, tiny droplets of unnamed emotions

wash me from my anguish, make me pure.
