FOR YOU NANDITHA......
What shall i write about you?
The hidden riddles of your smile?
or the puzzles in your eyes so blue?
What shall i really write?
I searched the corridors
of memories, that scattered
like strewn popcorn
and tasted tears!
I picked the feathers you left-
in the dreary months of winter,
dipped them in my heart,
and felt the cold words shudder!
I picked an image from your mirror,
to rhyme with my thought
and filled my blank paper
with new words long and short!
Was there a rhythm?
Was there any rhyme?
I couldn't really fathom
the depth of their chime!
Words whirled around me
Like the wind of January
Sweeping away my verse
Into a neverending void!
Now at last..........
What have you left for me!
A shattered image,
In a broken mirror!
A handful of words like fireflies,
To remind me of death?
A painful bafflement
That linger forever?
Tell me,what shall i write?
Words are lost forever!
What shall i write about you?
The hidden riddles of your smile?
or the puzzles in your eyes so blue?
What shall i really write?
I searched the corridors
of memories, that scattered
like strewn popcorn
and tasted tears!
I picked the feathers you left-
in the dreary months of winter,
dipped them in my heart,
and felt the cold words shudder!
I picked an image from your mirror,
to rhyme with my thought
and filled my blank paper
with new words long and short!
Was there a rhythm?
Was there any rhyme?
I couldn't really fathom
the depth of their chime!
Words whirled around me
Like the wind of January
Sweeping away my verse
Into a neverending void!
Now at last..........
What have you left for me!
A shattered image,
In a broken mirror!
A handful of words like fireflies,
To remind me of death?
A painful bafflement
That linger forever?
Tell me,what shall i write?
Words are lost forever!
