The Day I Found Us Again

-


I remember the days when you were my world,
when every moment with you felt like a dream unfurled.
Three years of love, two years as a pair,
we promised forever, we promised to care.

But somewhere along the way, we lost our light,
our words became fewer, our hearts filled with fights.
We lived under one sky but walked different ways,
lost in our silence, lost in our days.

I don’t even know when we started to fall,
when “us” became distant and love felt so small.
We only knew one thing, standing apart-
“I can’t live with you and walk my on way” said both of our hearts.

So we walked to the court with a decision made,
thinking goodbye was the choice we had laid.
Yet every time I saw you standing there,
the anger was gone, there was something still there.

Then one day I asked, “Shall we have some tea?”
A simple moment brought back the old me.
We sat and talked like we did before,
and slowly we opened the forgotten door.

We laughed about memories, the silly things we did,
the love we once shared, the happiness we hid.
You looked at me and I looked at you,
wondering where our old love flew.

Then I realized it wasn’t love that died,
it was time and care we kept aside.
Our ego was louder, our silence was strong,
but deep inside, we still belonged.

Maybe if we had talked that day,
instead of pushing each other away,
we wouldn’t have stood in a courtroom line,
searching for a love that was already mine.

I learned that leaving is easy to do,
but rebuilding takes two.
A relationship survives when both hearts try,
when “me and you” becomes “we” again, not goodbye.

And if someday love cannot stay,
we must still respect the separate way.
But before we let a beautiful story end,
we should try to listen… and try again.

So before you choose to walk away,
give love a chance, give words a way.
Don’t let pride become the wall,
when a little understanding can heal it all.

For hearts don’t break because love is gone,
sometimes they break when silence carries on.
Hold the hand that once held yours,
and water the love that still endures.

Because a relationship is not about never having a fight,
it’s about choosing each other again after the darkest night.
Listen, forgive, and let hearts speak true-
sometimes the love you’re searching for is still waiting with you.

The Love of Waves

-
Image
She walks alone where the waves meet the shore, Listening for footsteps she waits for once more. The evening wind carries a whispering tune, A song of the ocean beneath the pale moon. Her eyes follow boats that disappear in the blue, Searching the horizon, still dreaming of you. The sea keeps your memories close to her heart, Though miles and silence may keep you apart. The waves come running to touch the land, Like a lover reaching for a waiting hand. They leave with the tide, they wander away, But return to the shore at the break of day. She learns from the ocean, patient and true, That love can survive when hearts are two. For even the waves that travel so far Still find their way back beneath the same star. The storms may rise and the nights may fall, The sea may answer with a distant call. But her love remains like the endless sea, A timeless song of what you mean to me. And when the moon shines over the shore, She feels your presence forevermore. For love is not lost when the wav...

Die Another Day

Image
 Die Another Day ***************** I count the passing days upon the sky, Like drifting stars that wander slowly by. I miss the laughter that we have not shared, The quiet moments destiny prepared. *** I carry memories that are not born, Like winter fields that wait to meet the dawn. But deep beneath this solitary flame, There lives a quiet fear without a name. *** For while I dream of your desired embrace, A darker vision takes its sudden place: The day you turn your back and walk away, And steal the golden sun from every day. *** How strange that love can hold two restless seas- One filled with hope, and one with silent pleas. One wave that brings you gently to my shore, One wave that takes you back for evermore. *** We die in moments, hidden deep and small, In dreams we lose, in tears that never fall. The person that I was just yesterday Will fade like mist and quietly drift away. *** And if our tangled paths should fade away, If heavy night should steal another day, Remember th...

The Woman Who Bloomed In Winter

  The Woman Who Bloomed In Winter ************************************ She was a flower born for the golden spring, But life placed her under an endless, weeping rain, A promised garden of velvet roses Left her with only the thorns and the pain. She wore her grace like a heavy crown, While beneath her ribs, a quiet ocean threatened to drown. *** She fed the little birds in her sheltering nest, Even when no one cared for the roots of the tree, A lantern consuming its own oil in a dark room, She gave away her warmth, wild and free. She spent her light ensuring others could safely sail, A solitary lighthouse standing stark against the gale. *** Her nights were filled with heavy, shifting shadows, Her brightest dreams were buried deep in the dust, The hands that were meant to hold her gently Forgot the sacred language of love and trust. She was treated like a deep well in a desert place- Treasured for her water, but forgotten in the drought's embrace. *** She carried mountains wrapped ...

Broken Beats

  Broken Beats The forest hums, a silent, lonely sigh, Two hearts once one, now watch the branches fly. Each rhythmic tap-a memory, a phantom sound, Of love once shared, on hallowed, hollow ground.                                 Her Memories – The Female Woodpecker’s Side I remember your drumming-loud, alive, and clear, It echoed through the boughs, a song I held dear. But then, another rhythm from a distant tree, A flash of red, and joy not meant for me. My heart recoiled, a splintered, sudden dread- Another’s beat, another nest, inside my head. My tapping faltered, lost its steady chime, Believing now your melody beat to different time. His Truth -The Male Woodpecker’s Side She never knew-my fervent, pounding beat Was for our future home, for love, for something sweet. I scoured the bark for grubs, for strength, for song, To claim a space where we, at last, belong. That distant tree...

Tamboola’s : Sweet Remembrances

-
Image
  A lone cuckoo’s call stirs memories of my grandparents, of the betel caddy that sits empty now, the echoes of childhood alive in my mind. I remember the jasmine arbor, sunlight filtering through green leaves, our ancestral home, where my grandfather’s eyes gleamed with gentle humor, crimson on his lips from betel’s stain. In the kitchen, my grandmother’s hands worked the mortar and pestle, a steady rhythm— betel nuts cracked and sliced with the antler-handled knife, the leaf carefully folded, lime applied with practiced grace. Each motion was art— my fingers too learned the ritual: the snap of the leaf, lime’s smooth burn, the fragrance of betel weaving through the room. Beyond the kitchen, Grandfather in his easy chair, his laughter ringing out as he spat crimson into the brass spittoon— its soft chime another song of memory. After meals, we gathered, the taste of betel tying us together, the village crossroads, the country store’s lantern glow, wh...

Eyes of the drop of the tear

-
Image
  On the field where steel once sang, beneath a sky choked with smoke and sorrow, a knight lay broken, face kissed by mud, his halberd shattered, his banner torn. From the painy drops of his eye, a single tear clung - not fallen, not free - balanced on the edge of ruin. That drop, a prisoner of pain, held a voice only silence could hear. It whispered to him not of glory,but of chains, away in the hands of slaves   a princess dragged  who bore no names -only whips and wounds. Slaves in the grip of time; Souls in an endless cycle. The glories of land and knight s he had sung once, in fields where the sun lay down gently, grew her seeds of love her laughter soft as linen. Now, her breath was stolen by foreign winds, her crown replaced by rusted shackles. The tear told him: “If she crosses their border, her soul will be bartered, her beauty burned in their fires, her name forgotten beneath their laws.” It wept not from his grief, but from hers. It wept for th...

Time's Gentle Stirring: Lessons from Bloom and Wing

-
Image
  Lotus: As my soft petals unfurl, dear Honey Bee, I hear your low hum, a morning melody. From muddy depths, I rise to greet the light, Do you find true joy in simple, honest flight? Is your small heart content with nectar's sweet gold? Or does it yearn for stories yet untold, Beyond the bloom, this fleeting, sunlit space? Do you ponder time, and life's ephemeral race? Honey Bee: Oh, Lotus, your wisdom, like morning dew on my wing, A precious truth, your gentle musings bring. I find my deepest bliss, in what I possess, No grasping shadows, no striving for excess. To gather the bounty, with diligence and grace, This is my ancient, destined, sacred place. I see the withered leaf, the blossom fall and die, No foolish yearning for endless days on high. For death is no stranger, to creature or to flower, Time cooks us all, in its all-consuming hour.  Lotus: Your clarity, dear Bee, a marvel to behold. I too bloom forth, from stories ages old. My life, a brief sparkle, a moment in th...

Where Envy Learns to Fade

-
Image
  If only that chance had come to me, if only that moment had chosen my chair, if only I’d held what others see, if only life had been more fair. They say there’s no cure for jealousy, no remedy for baldness, no gentle art. Time may tend to flesh and bone, but some wounds hide deep in the heart. One fades with the passing days, the other aches, unwilling to depart- untouched by medicine’s healing ways, rooted quietly in the human heart. It stirs when love shines clear and bright, when gold glitters on another’s skin, when someone’s life blooms full of light, when fame lifts a stranger from within. It wakes when beauty drifts softly by, light as breath, like a fleeting breeze, when nations rise, when dreams amplify, when children excel with effortless ease. It burns when poetry glows with grace, a spark I wish had found my mind; a longing wrapped in a quiet place, a hope I try to leave behind. In the shadowed corners of my mind, jealousy rises like an uninvited wind- a whisper linge...

Rations and Ruins

-
Image
  In metal tins the hunger slept, While war drums beat and soldiers wept. A cracker dry, a sliver thin— A meal was packed in steel and tin. No feast, no fire, just powdered brew, And hope inside a plastic chew. A packet meant to keep the breath One step ahead of certain death. The taste of ash, a metallic tang, A hollow echo where laughter once rang. The whispered prayers, the silent dread— For sustenance meant for the living, not the dead. The field was fed by factory fare, No kitchens warmed the smoky air. Just rations marked with code and date— A soldier’s fate, a soldier’s plate. Beneath the camouflage, a gnawing ache, For home-baked bread, for goodness’ sake. The endless wait for dawn, for night, Fueled by the promise of the next stale bite. Each morsel a reminder of the world they'd left— Of comfort, of love, of lives bereft. The guns fell still. The silence burned. But peace was not what peace had earned. The cities crumbled into dust, And mouths g...
