once i was

a princess

in the kingdom

of your heart;

once.

blinded by

fool's gold

waited at the

wrong end of the rainbow



treachery disguised

still the same

9-2-09

-to do list-


they found

a half completed

to do lists

prised from her

cold fingers



on that particular day

she thought

the list too

short

8-5-08

you said

its hard to please her

maybe...

luckily you dont have

to jump on any

crocodile's back



or in mediavel times

slay dragons

just to save

her from the

darkest dungeon

tallest towers



you dont have

to swim in any

ocean of fire

or

dangling from twigs

only in the barest

attire



still.....

3-4-08

you never

told me

lies

you thought

i didnt know

what i knew



if only

you knew

what i know



no gestures

can mend

no words

can heal


28-2-08

today

will always be

a day of something new



similiarities are illusions

like fingerprints

or zebra's stripes

1-2-08

its sad to

know

how

some lives ended



each had a story

sometimes

never told

27-10-07

this is

where demons roam

and the wind will

fright

and

lull u

to sleep only

if

the howlings

wasnt too loud

skeletons dance

and whenyou seek

the door never

opens

you

are

trapped.

1-10-07

-dead's end-


at dead's end

and you have

burnt

all bridges

left behind



trapped

where do you

seek for light

18-9-07

-drowning-



tried to

breathe

while drowning



gasping;



h e l p.


2-9-07

when we

renovate

tearing the

whole house apart



the walls must have wept

21-7-07

when

another heart

becomes yours





how does it

beat

will it feel the same?


27-6-07

you look at

them wondering

how

with hands

they conversed so much



whilst with words

you are

speechless





*inspired by orbiter dictum's blog.



-13-6-07

you was

once

hardly walking

barely understood

now teaching me

things that

i thought

i would never want to know

the sound of whale/the weight of

dolphins/the big and

small things that

your eyes never miss

once you

was

just a baby in my arms

27-5-07

-upon reading how to simplify your life-



it is advised that

to simplified

what you need

is

to

plan and plot

how your funeral is

going to be


16-5-07

the phamplet

shows

how to

wash your

hands

which finger

first



how easy it is

than

to wash

away the invisble

baggages


4-5-07

-tragedy-


if i had

a heart

it would

be broken by now



had i have that

heart

it will be drowning

in its own tears



but

i do not have

that heart or pain

that tragedy

was not mine

to claim

4-5-07

-split seconds-

births

deaths

in

a

blink of an eye



lives changed

for better

or worse

21-4-07

at 12 midnight

cinderella

rushes home



all things,

pumpkin and mice included

loses their magic

-cinderella-

wonder what

size was her feet

that the glass slippers

did not break

when others tried

but failed.


14-4-07

hear

my

heartbeat

hear

my heart

hear

me

there are

many ways

to skin a cat



just as

many to

break

a heart

the world is

at war

grown ups

plot to kill;

and children mutilated

while

playing hide and seek

28-3-07

do you remember

when

we

used to be

different

but

no better

than now

not worst

than before


26-3-07

a necklace

of hopelessness

hung around her neck

suffocating

and tight

yet

with a half smile

she said

the air

i breathe

is

still free

21-3-07

-annihilation-



sometimes

what was left

unsaid

became the dagger

that

ravages

all hopes

-19-3-07

succumbing to

the law of attractions

we plan plot

and

time becomes

both

enemy and friend



-falling in love-


stolen seconds

make it all

worth the battlefield precision



never love at first sight

from a tiny spark

a mighty flame thrives


-19-3-07-

when the blue sky

meets

the bluer sea

with sand

between our toes

and the sun

burning our skins



it as perfect as a moment could be

-17-3-07-

-family photo-


sometimes we smiled

with stiff bodies

and

fake warmness





a picture paints

a thousands words

ours just deceived

silently

13-3-07

passing by

the empty house

when dusk sets

thru the window

she saw

glimpses of other lives

half lived


2-3-07

-bookworms-


we have come

far from

our travels



and now



our books

mingled

on the shelf

1-3-07

-cupid's arrow-


it struck with such a force

that he thought

his heart had stopped

but

he knew

what might have been

wont

28-2-07

-at the traffic light-


there are others

waiting

for the lights

to change

are they

running away

or coming home


27-2-07

walls are known to have ears

and if they could talk

they would have wailed in despair

grieving for the loss



within these walls

births and deaths had weaved their presence

laughters too once heard

and tears shed



these walls bear witness to

years of memories

yours-mine

the whole tapestry of our family

now sad and abandoned

25-2-07

horoscope

if i have lost u

would it make any difference

when my horoscope today

said otherwise

24-2-07

feeling gothic

i want to smudge my eyes with kohl

wear black

breathe

in a windowless dark room



but life is not meant to be like that

22-2-07

he waits in the dark

for the sound of water

the soft whispers of the curtain

as she walks pass





he waits again

for the creak of the bed,

yet

there was only a loud deafening silence

that morning;

she is gone now for weeks

laid amongst the dead



there is only him on the bed,

in the room,

inside the house





where they used to laugh together

will be uploading old poems from the previous just enar!
