Waves

-
Mismatched, unthought of
Leading me through waves of doubt
Waves of you, reverberate as they wash me over, wash me over again.
Patient murmuring, hindered buffering,
Obstructions in thought, obstructions in action
A tingling feeling clenches my spirit.
A rising rises in a heart that is so used to beating, worn of loving,
but continues to love, with the same capacity.
Eyes start to close, gradual and simple, you can't help this now.
Eyes start to close so you can sleep again, rest a hassled heart and impatient legs,
A confused mind with little to contain.

Epiphany

I feel like I'm coming to accepting this. From drowning in my self created mazes, from people I tried to escape. I'm still rooted, where I am, and my past will be forever etched in my memory, times I've tried to not only escape people, but myself. I got lost almost voluntarily, almost as if in quest to find myself, on the streets, in shops of nowhere, below my own skies, which seemed so alien. The world that was jelly in my hands, slipping from my palms and I could do nothing about it. I got prone to killing myself, the instinct that still lives on in my being. Still there have been times I've been able to find reason, and I have figured that by reason and reason alone can I move forward and conquer. I see myself a little above the deep unknown, afloat on the water, I'm not moving, I'm not sinking. Complexities surround us, and we usually rub our eyes to misunderstand them. They become threats, and we always look for people to direct us. Sometime

Never one

To harbour an idea, (I won’t say dream for that seems needlessly embellished for this piece) for a good many days, months and even years, having gone through very distinct phases – of thinking it in the first place, of establishing it as one to pursue, of wanting to act upon it but not, of acting upon it and failing, to actually achieving it has served as an eye opener of the first order for me, and though I don’t completely comprehend its ramifications, here’s what I have understood so far.  For once in all my years, I set out to chase something that I believed (and believe) would ultimately become my profession. At last, to the relief of many and myself, I had a singular direction and the only visible trajectory was forwards in a linear motion. Though I am not one for jotting notes, it was all charted in my mind, organized according to serial number, colour and topic. I’d do the usual and achieve something mind-bogglingly grand. I’d escape the nest to find my calling and tra

Could've-beens

I do not want to feel it; But every early morning A certain restlessness creeps into my bed   Gently stroking the surface of my head Sending down tingles of misery, Paralysing every trinket of hope. What could it be, I wonder Desperately finding a way around the fact But alas, temporary consolation Is now falling short in covering the act It has been you, just you Victorious, both in capturing my fancy   And making me feel inadequate.   You, and your uninhibited ways - Refreshing and reckless, And nonchalant (and demeaning) demeanour   Were never for me.   How could I be so wrong?   When I saw you then, I thought about possibilities When I see you now,   I think about my flaws. I do not want to feel it; But I feel resentment. For wounding me in your own strange way For making it seem like it will never go away And for lingering and hovering like a bunch of moths   Around any found remnants of light. But fortunately,
