I walk from...

Light to darkness
Calm to storm

Sitting on the threshold
It's havoc
Wrecked loose on me
In the slight
Sound of rain
And rolling, laughing thunder
Silhouettes in a world
Plunged into an abyss

I walk from
Silence to thunder
Peace to mayhem

Feet numbed
And this sheet moistened
Water levels rising
The storm picks up
Laughter lost somewhere
Like paper boats
Battered by the rains
Playfulness abandoned
Thunder,
Means business now.

*gurgles*

There's little that I haven't said or done.

But there I was. Concentric blue circles, sometimes leaking into one another..now identified and sorted out. Intricately carved out lives, closed eyes and incoherence.

you were made to go out and get her

Hard Rock Cafe and Chambor kohl pencils

Hours faded into days
and then into weeks

Movements in line
with yours
While strings of words
said, unsaid
left behind a trail of thoughts

Trails which led
to places
unexplored, unknown

Bruising, but standing up
dusting and going on
but healed
only now

Inching closer
and closer
a little bit every time
like shifting life
to mould it around you

Closeness
is not a word any more
cause existences
have come to be
entwined
just as your breath
fogs my thoughts

I look at you
and it's a moment
frozen in time and space
frames that will later
flick past
and leave behind
lumps in my throat

Overwhelming
a little dangerously so
but the lines
of your smile
and the sound of your
laughter
etched upon my mind
surround my being
until
I've faded into you.
