Words

I do not have any grand swelling theories
To impress you deeply and thoroughly,
Yet words grow and impinge on me
Like moss on auld, sad, beaten walls
That have lived so long
Against their will
Compelled by a ceaseless doom,
That any prelude of the slightest quake
Makes them judder in their eerie silences.
Yet they live on
To tell their dreary tales
Over and over again…

Very silent n calm.
So unlike Deepika-ish.

Words are but a passage
To swirling unrest and inner
feelings
Bursting forth with
Heart’s tiniest of tinglings

Soothing the mind
Unburdening the heart
Indeed, right words are a rare find
But you have the craft.

@ Debu, Anup

Thanks guys :)

@ anon

If words come from
a far away land,
then let me wait for
the right one
to thank thee enough
and you dear friend
shall then reveal thy name
and stun me
to the very bone of my
silences.

Cheers!
