In every breath, in every blink
In every question hard to sink
In every sunset, every rise,
In every meet that won’t suffice
In every warm summer’s offset,
In the glimpse of a dancing silhouette,
Like the burning fire on the melting ice,
Even in the inexplicably intertwined ties
In the dead silence of the night,
In the battle of heart and the might,
In every debt, life be the price
Whatever the result be, of destiny’s dice
In the war of truth
and fright
With the sudden promise of a bright light
In every moment big or trivial
In every delight unreal
In each carefully woven reverie
In every plea and prayer
In hopeless hope and plight
As every castle builder’s right
In many tries and painful retreats,
In the little denials and sweet deceits
In the very aberrant life’s symmetry
In this rush of mad poetry
Against the designs
of fate,
In the hours of dawn, dusk and late,
I’ll wait at this guarded gate,
I’ll wait this endless wait!
innocent memories? i would like to hear that :)
ReplyDeletei had read somewhere, you called yourself an amateur. right then i might have believed it. but as of now, after this, i would say you take that back. :)
P.S.: The last two lines, i l wait at this guarded gate, i l wait this endless wait, i d say u repeat that after say the third stanza. it wouldn't make much difference, but it would give it the kind of habitual repetition we are used to in poetry. just a suggestion ma'am. no more.
Innocent memories= Certain times, good times! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a long route to get there, so amateur still, for now. :)
About the refrain, again, why dint I think of that? :D
Thank you, time and again. Feels great! :)
aah good times. always worth remebbring.
ReplyDeleteand amateur wont be the right word. probably explorer. no. not that either. will have to find it. :)
no. thank you. i had woken up in a rage. this is what calmed me :)
Woken up in a rage? That's strange! Why would you do that? :O
ReplyDeleteHahah :D
what so happened was, i like waking up to the quiet. get up rub my eyes and stuff. what happened was, the people i live with, were sitting in my room and shouting at each other for the same silly reason they always do.
ReplyDeletebasic bullshit. i cannot wake up to that. puts me in a straight rage.
