2022-01-15 19:55:05 This story is very strange, it may not be for anyone else, but it is for me.... I have never been special in my life.But I can never forget that day of my simple, straight and boring life.
That day of 11th August has been written in golden letters in the book of my greasy life.
I was waiting for my train, although the train arrives on time but that day the train was 7 minutes late. But in India 7 minutes means nothing.. Well as soon as the train came, it took everyone to catch all the seats. I was one of them too.
As soon as I got a seat, that too with a window which was my choice.
I sat outside the window looking at the people, someone's purse was stolen and someone's cat was lost.
"Strange people..."
I thought and kept watching but then my eyes saw a girl
Seeing which "MashaAllah" came out of the mouth...
That girl was standing wearing a burqa with a bag in one hand and a photo in the other…..she had many questions in her eyes…. was looking for something and maybe she was pregnant too....sometimes some stranger in life People are very happy to meet, it seems as if we have some old relation with them.....
Well after 10 minutes the train started.
I was still looking at that girl, she stood on the same wake…. I could not stay, so I asked with a loud voice,
"You don't have anywhere to go? the train will leave."
He looked at me and said no with humbleness.
The train had left......
On the second morning I got up, brushed, made tea and sat down on the sofa after picking up the newspaper, one gulp of tea must have gone and hardly, that too came out, I was shocked because it was written in it.. ...
"" A woman wearing a burqa committed suicide by jumping in front of the train.
And this wasn't any other woman but she was the one I had seen yesterday, there was a photo beside her dead body and the same bag.
How strange, the one I saw yesterday was not in the world yet....
Maybe she had already come thinking,
That this train will take him to her real destination......

A tangled web of space and time,
meticulously crafted by patient time.

We have fallen because of gravity,
yet gravity wasn't there;
it was simply the web of space and time.

Clocks run slower everything seems fair,
In deeper gravitational wells.
He became more confident as he thought,
"Everything appears to be correct," she thought,
but it was all an illusion,
Is an object's gravity nothing more than a curvature?

We began to stray,
as the cosmos expand.

2022-01-13 20:58:30 we’ve reached the edge of the cutting party.
this is the edge where you hate me—
—and where I hate you
—and where we glare at each other across our own little capsules of time,
one half of each memory just out of the others sight,
one half of each heart just out of the others reach,
and I say,
in all my misguided sense of good intention,
that I love you in that special little way that darkness loves the moon,
only ever yearning for your presence,
when I just want to consume.

Lost and trapped in a hole six feet deep, the king screamed for help as no one could hear him. Few minutes later, an anaconda struggling to make her way to the whole where the king was.
King Ahmatep Okole was the greatest king there is. His voice was like the roar of a lion. Lives will be taken at the snap of his fingers. So great he was, yet a dictator. His people were no longer in support of him for the all wanted to overthrow him for his ruthlessness was becoming too much.
He was so great, even demons trembled at his feet.
Marysel, a beautiful maiden came to serve his highness. For she was so beautiful that his majesty couldn't resist. His highness immediately after seeing her ordered for a grand ceremony to make her his wife.
The ceremony went well until later that night, marysel being an assassin and witch, made some incantations and with the speed of light, she together with the king disappeared and appeared in a six feet deep hole. Immediately she turned to an anaconda and later took away the king's life by cutting off his head. For darkness was upon the land. But in a period of 10 minutes, light touched every part of the kingdom. For the king is dead.
When this news got to the villagers, there was great celebration in the land for the king was no more.

2022-01-12 21:22:00 I mutilate myself, no matter what i do.
Acting all spirit, i maim when I'm disregarded, when I'm pass over.
Acting all foul isn't my cup of tea either, i maim again, i incapacitate either way.
Being ignoble and or moral, both roads are noxious to me. What do i fancy then?
You blemish me, your bygones. I can't condone it. I can't strand you either. You, your, it impedes me, candidly but won't gash you by disclaim, renounce.... Won't? Well, can't is more apt, can't bestow to soar your agony.... But about my torment? I have nowhere to go, no door left open, I'm stuck, stuck with you. I'll dwell, I'll persist, that's what I've been doing, that's what i can keep up with. No possibility, either at whim or reluctantly, i have to adhere, no recourse.... I'd be thrusting here, i don't know the stretch, the extent, maybe perpetuity.

Hold my hands and take me.
Take me back to our supernova, the distant galaxy, where you paint the sky in black and I heal your scars, under the light of a thousand stars.

Take me to a place where I no longer crave for your love; a love that unleashes the demons within. My life's a wall you have built in between two homes, one, where my heart breathes and other, where my heart bleeds.

Take me back to the start, where my intoxicated eyes speak of the dreams they had witnessed with you and you somehow, tend to fathom the words unspoken.

Hold my hands and take me! Open / Comment

2022-01-12 07:59:07 Beyond the shores of thought and reason,
The seas of emotion suddenly swell
Tempest clouds roar without season,
Growing the gloom with every decibel

I shrink with grief and crouch in despair,
Fighting tears with each rasping breath
What would you say if you were here,
If you could forsake the veil of death

How do I know if you are in a better place,
That there you no longer feel any pain,
That you watch over us from across the space,
That you have found your place in God's domain

Did the old familiar voices of wise ancestors
Welcome you back with warmth and love?
Beyond the bondage of all wordly matters
Have you found your freedom in heavens above?

Memories, they meet me in silence only to remind
Time, the eater of worlds now consumes my peace
Love, what you took along and what you left behind,
Now holds us together and comforts like a breeze

Life will go on with this burden to bear,
My heart will heal but will it be the same?
I harbor happy memories of all that we shared,
Your words in my thoughts and pictures in frames

All the legends and tales of the other side,
Oh, how I wish now for them to be true!
I pray and surmise what I once denied,
For someday again I will get to see you

In a place somewhere that is off the map
Where I can choose to be a child once more,
Feeling cheerful and safe, sitting on your lap
Innocent and happy, contented forevermore

2022-01-10 20:15:01 /anon And I stand here again
In this not-so-real rain
Feeling every bit of it,
Feeling every kind of pain.
I can see myself standing
Asking me to let go
Let go of the hurt
Let go of the strain.
As I look out of the window
The sun is starting to rise
Birds are singing again
And the moon is paying the price.

2022-01-10 07:57:54 Silent Night

Staring at the moon
Wondering how it was made
The soft light
The unbothering silence

Echoing winds
Chasing down the roughness of the day
Clearing the way for a new day
Looking forward to brighten people's day

I look at the silent houses
The ones with light outside but inner darkness
Waiting for another day
For people to bring their darkness out

I then feel a cold breeze
Of all unreached goals of the day
The lost hopes
And all the disappointments

The breeze is too strong
It reaches out to my bones
But then I look at the stars
And I get embraced by the dreams yet to be true

Slowly I turn my back and head back in
For the night speaks a lot to those who listen
To those who don't
It is a silent night

As a mumbled day roars into the night
You awe at turmoil within sight
You rally hope deciphering in blind
And snap dead over guilty grind
You howl oppression to a tyranny inclined
While a stone numbs you too in hind
You are a masquerade charade of a time
Also drowned in an unworthy slime -
All that gained in revolt to a tornado
A subtle breeze oozes in
A drop from the eye
Mind over matter into
An invisibility you shatter
As crippled regards for matters of mind
You fall a shadow to own reflection
And curse the mirror in drab fashion
Thus you summon
An adventure into the night
Within all the while
Chatters anger your fright.
