Memories And Hope

Where there was but pain
and shadows of memories past
forming anew
there is something here atlast
...

Her line said
'I am 43 too'
the smile flickered on my lips
they had waited for a long time.

People write poetry
read poetry
in words.
...

...

Don't speak,
Let me rest
Your words create images
And I cannot see
...

Moonlight
caresses your cheeks

Seawind
...

The leather sofa
weatherbeaten still stands,
your impression even now persists
You haunt me.
...

There are days
when the dawn doesnt bring
no rays of sunshine
just darkness within.
...

She always smiled
told me that love never dies,
her clothes lying in the cupboard,
Why did she lie?
...

I enter the restaurant
Sit at our favourite place,

You know why it hurts?
Because there was no time,
No space at all
Even for tears.

Angry words hurt me,
But silence cuts soul deeper,
I moan either way.

Sahra ka jaise, badalon ko dekh
phir dil tootata hai
Pani ki boondon ka waham
phir hota hai

Bodies turn
Concentric arcs,
No space between
Even for sighs.
