whispers of love



if only i could see the pain in your eyes
if only i could hear the fear in your breathe
the shadows of unseen blinds me through
the cry of the unknown deafens my soul!

if only i could feel your varied heartbeats
if only i could listen to those hushed whispers
how i wish to hear those whispers, to feel your breathe
to hold you close and feel your heartbeats in mine!

if only i could wipe those tears from your cheeks
if only i could bring back the smile on your lips
my eyes are wet, but ill not cry today
you are my strength and ill not loose hope!

if only i could kiss away your pain
it hurts to see my princess weep
the tears wither my skin,
as i lie here, cold and dead!


disclaimer: its just random thoughts put on paper. got nothing to do with my presence. i am very much alive :P

i like sad and haunting poems. it helps me get serious :P

this isnt a haunting poem, obviously, but it's nice, as Scrawler asks, who's the inspiration?

vinny said...

Scattered Thoughts... said...

oye kya ho gaya bhai.. you said that you are alive but seems so are the haunting memories of breakup.. :(

Cяystal said...

I like the last paragraph..reminded me of the song Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd.."I can heal the pain..get you on your feet again"..
A good attempt!


(The disclaimer was needed. Or I'd very well assume tht I was reading the works of a Zombie! :D)

Anil Sawan said...

Yamini Meduri said...

how i wish to have some one so dear
the pain of my heart, he can hear
he, who can hold me so near
that never in my life i can fear

how i wish to have someone so caring
the every feeling, for only sharing
the cutest smile is wat he is wearing
the pictures of sorrow he is tearing

how i wish to be a dear one
to the best, to that some one
who can see the world in one
its me, only one to very some

I loved this.
Is it fiction? Or does it stem from your own past?

Anil Sawan said...

Vigneshwar, thnx buddy.. welcome here..

Anil Sawan said...

keerthi, nothin is fiction. the works we call fiction - aren't they influenced by our life, eitr directly or indirectly? it did stem out from my own past, the past which i have forgotten lately :P
