You are gone

You are gone...
And my world came crashing down

You were not there
to see the ashes of burnt dreams...

Love hurts and hurt it does

When you have given all to that one
who never realised what he lost...

That aches and writhes, only i feel
my heart cries, only i hear

A lone battle
i lost all, but nothing in you
for you were never there in this journey with me...

A blank canvas i want
to paint a dream again

Waking up by your side,
with your smell onto me,

Morning tells the tale
of the night before,
in a flashback as i recall

Wrinkled sheet, cigarette buds,
wine bottles, strewn robes
You and me, picture of love

As i turn around, i see you sleeping like a child
a little peek of ray playing on your face

I steal a moment,
from the life's closet

Running away into
the landscape beyond

Moments waft like smoke
from a long lit cigarrette
That remained clenched
between my fingers forever

Ah a long wait tis been
before i had a li'l steal from life

midnight meetings
frenzied moments

aah, it felt like love
an eternal bliss
that's all i would call it

sweet nothings
when even the silence spoke
there i was melting in his arms
a smile enough to tickle me pink

it snapped with just one gust
leaving me with memories galore
a lurking melancholy, in the fleeting glee
i wanted you forever
when you were mine only for the moment

i look out of the window and see a falling leaf
drifting with the wind
like a rudderless boat
that;s how i feel now
listless, drained, empty
painting a blank canvas
with the colors of pain

A whisper of the wind
takes me by awe

The expanse I experience
sitting by the sea

The dark sky aloft
tells me a story unknown

Life seems small
and spaces galore

A splash of dreams
of all I am
in a world I call my own

Surreal waxes real
life becomes life

I want to walk along the unknown
in a world of dreams

In the surreal silence of the tomb,
You seal my lips with a kiss

Like the ripple of the fountain yonder
I hear the tunes of my heart

It aches to have it forever
I wish the time froze there

Sitting on the bench
We hear the birds chirp

A prayer slips out of my lips
Wish you were mine

A walk in the dark alleys
A walk to remeber I recall

I live life in pieces
They call me their's
Who do I have to call Mine

Citadel of joy
I create

On the debris of pain
A lease of life
Like a bird
It flies, it soars
with limitless flight

Forget the sorrow
as it lies in peace
'neath the debris of pain

why did u go away
leaving me with an
endless wait

a dream i thought
had come to reality

has become a chase again

frozen in time
they lay like a poem

interwoven bodies
like metaphor of love

moist eyes
becomeverse without words

a moment to die for
a life to live by

all we have are these moments
moments to live by, moments to die for

greens of life
laden with lush

mirth of life amidst
angst of existence

rivers of sorrow merging in
seas of happiness

i want to live like-i want to break loose
i want to lose myselfin the quest for life
