You need to fall (Inspired by Felix's jump)
Sometimes you need to fall
just to learn how to stand tall!
How to rise again
from the ashes of the pain!
How to take the next step to be
what you've always meant to be!
How to dare...
to be there...
to face the questioning doubtful glare
prove them wrong
as you sing your song!
Sometimes
you need to try
even if it means that you'd die!
You see...
the path of glory
is never meant to be
for some one
as quiet as weak/ meek as thee!
someone who would curl away
with a cry and a sigh
waving his dream goodbye!
remembering it merely in a lullaby!
Remember success...
is what you achieve
when you hold on
to what you really believe!
Never grieve
as you weave
the next installment
of the story
of your glory!
Sometimes …
You need to choose
to fall ...
surrender to the deafening
maddening inner call
"come what may!"
You may say!
Then…
fall
and
win it all!
TODay!

wondering!
I still wonder
what happened !!
How did the thunder
manage to keep you away
when storms
have rocked my very bay!!
You were never a safe ground
to tread
just words to be read!
and I was a weaver
a quick believer
and now
I just relinquish it all
what is the point
when you always stand near the edge
threatened to take that fall!!

Lonely but safe ;)
I had it for years
For centuries past
Still I hold it tight
Hoping to keep it to the last.
You can have it now
& rescue me from the hammering sound !
Dance with it around
I no longer care..,
I'd dare ...
To stare !
& watch it bloom
Happy as it found n you a room
Just for a while ..
A little more
And I have to take it back
To its safe shore!
A little more
A little more
And a while
The beating weakens
The chambers are laced with tiles
A little while ..
The sound is lost
The fluttering of emotions dazed
A living being is hazed!
A little while
Another victim is added to the pile!
I told you
I had it for centuries
I kept safe!
Lonely as hell
But loneliness never led it
To the grave!

A Land of Breathtaking beauty
I am here in the land of the poet WordsWorth!
The village of Beatrix Potter who created the magical tales of Peter rabbit!
A land of such mesmerizing beauty & magical sceneries ;)
The people here are soo friendly. Smiles seem to be the norm if their every minute!
Love it here beyond words!

And I had you..
And I had you
for a second or two
a thought beguiling
a dream bewitching
and a story untrue!
And I had you
only in my mind
a reality hard to find!
and I …
no longer miss you
just had you
between a breath or two
centuries passed
and i was never yours to the last
just a breath
you once inhaled!
tried to keep
no reward to reap
but this…
these
words
i scatter here
utterances
you hold them near!
and they slip
between your finger tips
and they wake
that sleeping giant between the rips
And I had you!
Not…
so …
true!

Your afterthought!
I can't be your afterthought
a joy that you remember only when distraught!
A moment sought
only when others are mere nought!
I can't be
the breath you take
after so much breathing!
The word you utter
only when silence is seizing!
Not your last choice,
your lost voice,
Not your last fight
or your moment of flight!
I have to be the first
Not the last!
the present
not the ghostly past!
The fully accentuated utterance
and not the mere breath !
The life you live,
not the regret near death!
Until that....
you see
I'd remain nothing to thee!
An empty space,
a craving chase,
a non existent person ;
with no place
but here!
where words
are dear
near
and never filled with fear !
I can never be
the afterthought
that connects you to me!
but a full-fledged existence
that transcends the distance
and needs no resistance !
Until then...
Until then...
you see
I'd remain myself!
never an afterthought
forever a mystery! ;)

A human still!
Anguished
is how you feel
thinking that everything is real
but it is not
and it cannot be!
Half of life
is just a mere delusion,
you see!
Burned
as if walking on real fire
when you only have to wear
your forced attire!
Tired to the bone
waiting to reach home
when home can simply be
a word uttered to thee!
Bewitched
with dreams that can't be reached
a world is to be beseeched!
and
You !?
a monarch
a monarch
with no crown
just a face in this hazy town!
Silenced
for words seem to fail you still
as you struggle to express your
twirling inner cell!
missed
and missing
the light that once shone
that you thought you own
that taught you the reality of being alone
no centuries could atone
this loss of that you had known!
Bequeathed
to your day,
not a gift!
though in a way!
but perhaps a burden
of clay
and promised decay!
Delay ..
all that could be
hold life at a bay
stutter with your lousiest "cliche"
betray
the day!
and wallow in dismay!
At the end,
a human still you would be
entangled with all that is meant to be
dreaming of being set free!

A mesmerizing Yanni piece (Voyage) ;)
A mesmerizing, tantalizing piece from the musical magician Yanni...I had to post here ; a future reference for my musical taste which seems to swing , fall in love and get swiped off my feet ;)
Yanni somehow remained a constant love all through these years...
And I hope one day I'd attend one of his concerts and swoon over the pieces he wonderfully plays ;)
I so love this piece with its tantalizing shifts of notes and how it is endowed with a hint of Eastern music ;)
I hope whoever reads this post would enjoy it and find him/her self swinging along ;) LOL
Peace & Love,

Peace & Love,
All of me!!
All of me
is never enough!
you have
to push me away
& be rough!!
All of me
is just a bit too much
drive me away
out of reach
out of touch!
Then claim
to miss me so much!!
ANd I have to believe it all
as if stars could fall!
then rise again
hearts could stop beating
then lie in repeating!

Just You
For a day or two
I could find life to be just you
merely you
enough to be you
enough to be this twinkling in your eye
the whispering words that fly
the breath
you take
and leave to break.
For a day or two
I could swear
to dare
to live solely within you
the lingering touch
wrapping your tips!
the twirling smell
surrounding your breath
and the look
your eyes bewitch!
For a day or two
I could dare
to be just you!

(Kill me with your love) Yanni & Chloe
People who know me, must know that I'm an avid fan of Yanni's who simply takes my breath away with his music. Recently I discovered that he added another magical dimension to his music ;)
SOngs!
Yes, he collaborated with some writers and singers to turn his musical pieces into songs.
Here is one example that I love and have found it to have such a mesmerizing mixture ;)
I hope you would enjoy ;)
Starving for words!?
Starving for words!?
and their magical rewards...
Starving for moments
drawn
with hushed tone!!
Do you really wait
for the next utterances date?
praying night and day
that they won't go astray!
and lose their path!
causing your wrath!?
No retreat
is permitted
for thoughts
have to be committed
& submitted
again
and again
to this excruciating
process of pleasure and pain!
Words are haughty
and quite naughty
You can never drag them hither
and bind them forever!
They like to dwell
within their own cell
At times they compel
you to wait
at their very gate!
and if you are lucky
you might catch a glance
of a word or two
and have the romance
of dancing with words
so true ;)
