fireflies

Can there be something
as temporary and as final
as death?
Life replaces life,
Incidences replaces Memories...
But what remains true under these dusts..
That what has gone shall never be.
I will put your crumbling
Self that remains with me
In bottles and put some fireflies...
When the finality of your absence
Comes home on a spring morning as this.
I will look at the bottles and know
That the fireflies glow only by night..

Hiraeth

At the end of the disaster that swept Our streets with the twilight And seeped into our hearts  Like the moonbeams, What remained was a patch of purple On my dress. It was not your purple... It was of a mindful kid who drew blossoms of lavender on everything On my copies, my walls My dress. Yet why does a purple patch  Like the twilight And the disasters  Remind me of  times  That never were.

you should have been there..

I  was dealing with depression and family responsibilities, yet trying to heal from trauma but you chose to leave me right then. Right when, I was gathering up courage , courage to finally owe up to a 7 year slow burn for you, waiting for you to finish your career goals when you left me. And not even a word before the final hour. Not even a warning , but a blow. I have loved you since the first day I met you.. since the first trip I took with you. Since the time we stared at a moonlit mountain together. You were a rock, my anchor. The day it all ended, I told my friend... I feel like a rudderless anchorless boat.. As I suffer through my personal troubles now, my failing health, I wish .. and I rage.. and I scream internally... YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE. And although you never promised anything, it seems weird now that it was all me and zero of you in there.

the beginning of all good conversations

  It is the rain. The rain. The rain that is unbearably cold and unbearably reminds me of blue days. unbearable blue days, of exhaustion that comes with being happy. Happiness is an exhaustion. Sadness on the other hand is a slow intoxication. It is the rain. The cold rain that finally unburdens the exhaustion of happiness and trickles into the world, sadness, one drop at a time.one sadness at a time. sadness is accommodating. Come sit with me, tell me your sorrow. it is the rain, The rain. The rain that has this buzzing that calls forth the sadnesses it is the rain, the rain the slippery glasses that opens the inward gaze. in a dark room.
