    let me reach out
    and touch upon a word
    a word that lets you share
    that which i feel
    and fail to tell
    how it scars the soul
    every shudder that trembles as those memorable wounds are touched upon once more....
    why should you not know how it feels
    to hear the morning dew whisper
    to feel the pulses of loving words
    to see the heavenly sound of melodies
    bitter tears shared have a sweetness of their own
    and however love may be praised it too grows jealous
    of not being felt the same by all

    i have been found out
    blatantly pathetic there i stand too defeated to even try to remember how upright i stood
    how every one of your innocent encouragements were in vain
    nothing was to match my ego
    its revel in all its blindness
    the extent of your pity stings me, needles me,
    how raw wound suffers in acid as syrup however sweet is poured
    how cruel that this pain is not rescuingly fatal
    it stays so that i must endure your forced praise
    every bit of expectation and attention
    that which let me gloat
    and simper in all the smugness
    now causes to wrench slowly the very heart that burst with pride
    your eyes too deep they are
    they see too much in me
    i cannot stand how they enter and see yet fail to acknowledge
    but acknowledged it stays within the very wavering of your glance
    the very silence that falls when you ask and i stay soundless
    soundless so that you may hear the screams of humiliation that rack me within
    as you continue to wipe away tears that i cannot touch
    let its vain salt burn the very face that is unable to utter truth

    guilt is a serpent which slithers
    holding appled innocence in its fangs
    as it moves deeper into the world
    so does its venom into fruity flesh
    but ahhh how deception works to only
    make this fruit more jubliant to the fazed eye
    it is only after the gift already greedily enjoyed
    that the slider's trick and treat embitters
    slowly it taints beating heart so that it beats for oneself
    forgetting it beats for every and all
    silently it ladens the tongue with little lies wrapped up in white
    forgets the tool its purpose to converse not curse
    sickens the mind as it turns it against all
    yet...yet it is only itself that has been intellectually infected
    suffers the whole and cause it to accuse all but itself
    and soul now knowing but under spell slickens its surroundings
    so that snake may spy and spread silently still more

    Q: Are you/have you majored in English Literature??

    Your poems rock!!!
    When we stop labouring under the delusion of our cosmic self-importance, we are free of hindrance, fear, worry and attachment. We are liberated!!!

    what use do you serve
    nothing that is done by you
    is as it is felt
    why then do i remain your slave
    struggle with the little you have given me
    to tell others of your inepitude
    as they despair at my attempts with safe silence
    i become ever more frantic to describe
    what happens when i try to feel through things that have a life of their own
    yet remain silent as all the others
    what use do you serve
    to torture a slave that knows nothing
    but to serve....

    is love the enjoyment of the moment hoping that it never ends?
    it is the yearning for a moment that will never come
    is love saying i love you and meaning it?
    it is saying i love you silently masking its meaning from fear of being heard
    is love knowing you should say i love you more often?
    it is not being able to say it at all
    is love remembering the sweet times spent together?
    it is living in the minute moments that takes a bit of you each time
    is love feeling hatred at only the moment of anger?
    it is living in hatred of not being loved
    is love leaving your loved one in tears?
    it is leaving without ever telling them they are loved
    is love the way you make sure to be beside your lover at all times?
    it is the pain of staying beside and yet so far away in relisation
    is love the giving up for the sake of peace?
    it is the giving up of love for the everyone's sake but yours
    is love wanting to touch and wanting to be touched?
    it is when the touch of breath upon words for you is enough
    is love wanting to be together always?
    it is hoping to be together but knowing it is never

    there she stands
    straight-backed and silent
    staring yet mindful to be modest
    weary from work yet satisfied at accomplishment
    looking quite grim and serious
    knowing smiles are rare but not proper to flaunt
    starched and simply elegant white saree pleated just so
    knowing that no one but herself would criticize harshly wearing anything else
    jewellery lightly worn after much persuasion
    knowing fully the pride and gratefulness of being cajoled
    eyes seem weakened yet focussed
    trying hard to hold all the wiseness and love that glints within her eyes
    there she stands
    in my mind's eye
    no photograph to be held
    but memory to create
    from sheer admiration and respect
    hoping that she too knows this

    awww thanx NM hon....

    "Fleeting Flirtation"

    there is an art:
    which each of us create
    anew each encounter,
    whatever day.
    ...safely exhilarating...
    ...securely coy...
    ...furtive, fleeting, taboo...
    though willingly inate.
    silent observers swear by it:
    the glance, the presence, the immense haughtiness.
    innocent...yet charged with minute passion.
    a glance met...
    as a mask slides upon each players' face:
    a mute drama begins.
    simple scintillation that will not end in disgrace.
    around each involvee there a force field is set:
    actions of the other magnified,
    leaving all else oblivious.
    engaged in this duel of strangers two,
    interest is feigned upon all else but the other,
    so daringly they counter each others' broach of space.
    the untouched brush:
    so close, so close...
    to reach out and trace a finger upon....
    yet moment by moment intimacy,
    cannot purely connect them.
    so there one and one,
    stay each unknown:
    to continue their glance
    to continue their silent dance

    endless melodies melt into me...leave your trace...i beg of you...leave an embrace
    soul leave me without myself
    bliss lift me into clouds as tears trickle me down me
    do my eyes sparkle as within?
    breath flows to breathe words that will never be heard
    shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    it pains as it pains as it pains as it....
    don't say it...notaword..not...a....
    i know you felt it as i
    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
