Resurgence

It has been too long
And I'm not stuck anymore
While the scars are still there
They just don't hurt anymore.
And here's a new hope
Of a new dawn, a new beginning
But is it worth the risk
This situation is perplexing.

I'm not lonesome
That phase is foregone
I felt like I was whole
Then why am I counting on?
Counting on this situation
Counting on a new face
Will this make a difference
Or will it be just another phase?

We never interacted much
But the face has been there
It's structure, unknown
But the psyche, too familiar!
Too familiar as in
It's the same, my mirror image
But why am I looking for this
Was I this old school, this vintage?

I'll never know
If I don't give it a shot, would I?
Incertitude persists
And I'm frightened, that's why
I'm taking the risk
That soul has been cooperative
She sticks around, understands
Isn't a prying one , but still probative.

A few months down the road
I don't regret the risk that I took
It has been worth every single moment
Like the scent in unturned pages of a book
The dubiousness has vanished
The sky has been cloudless lately
Every moment, a memory is made
And takes its place in the heart, ornately.

To make a content person
Aware of the possibilities,
Aware of the unknown
She did that with so much of ease,
I'm glad I reached out, took a shot,
Had faith and believed in it
Yes, I can say without a doubt
She has been totally worth it!

The Room of Shelves

I have a room. It's a room for the secrets. It's a room for the feelings. It's a room for all the emotions that don't get to leave my mind through my voice. This room is full of shelves. It's compartmentalized. My thoughts go through a calculated categorisation process. Each thought gets allotted to a particular shelf. Though they all are somehow connected. I have a shelf for my secrets. I have a shelf for the secrets that people tell me. A shelf for self-doubts. A shelf for ideas. A shelf for hobbies. A shelf for feelings. A shelf for other people and their opinions. A shelf for my own opinions. But sometimes, it's okay to let a thought leave the shelf and out of the room of our mind. Because sometimes, contemplating things over and over instead of sharing it with others kills us from inside. It may or may not help. But it kind of makes it a bit easier to stay sane. Hence, I'm sharing one out of the million thoughts that bugs me on a daily basis. There'...

A Wish

Square face, dainty nose Almond eyes, arched eyebrows Half bangs and half curls You're not like the other girls. Even with all your imperfections You're a perfect piece of art. Igniting a fire in my soul You became a part of my heart. Fiercely protective And loyal to the core You're a homegirl material Maybe even a little bit more. I was looking for puddles And in you, I found a sea I got a feeling that You'll be the one who saves me. And I wished... May our fates be entwined Our lives be linked Our futures be combined And our hearts be synced. So one day our wishes will match Somewhere our paths will coincide Then we will take a shot at us And in each other's hearts, we'll reside. Now that you're so close Only half a feet away I can read them in your eyes Words your lips hesitate to say. So I pull myself back Giving you a little room to think You know I have fallen for you In your heart, let this feeling sink. This situation is baffling Our need...

Midnight Melancholy

There's something that keeps me awake Something that makes me wonder Something amidst the music of The dark night's rain and thunder. A voice that grabs my attention And reveals my whole story Memories embedded in my heart Fuel the midnight melancholy. Night inspires me incessantly to ponder Over things I always desire. Thoughts and emotions pile up Together, the heart and mind conspire. The heart adulates the dreams The mind always disparages, Always conflicting, seldom agreeing I keep them inside the cages. Beside the window, I hunker down And gaze at the descending raindrops And as I go down the memory lane It's already 2 am in the clocks. Still no chance of dozing off I revisit my choices and decisions Despise myself for the wrong And flatter myself for the right ones. The craving for peace, its significance, This hunger for truth I gotta feed A deep, laconic yet interesting Late night conversation is all I need. Got some confidants, some people I trust To share...
