I saw you...

Image - Emmanuelle Beart in "La Belle Noiseuse"

Verse by Colin Lascale

I saw you

and saw in you

the spark missing from my life.

I touched you

and you turned and turned to show your entire universe

of love, pain, hurt and hope.

I asked you

and you gave and gave profusely

of your creativity and confusion.

I joined

and joined my imagination

to your expression

and love took wings

to skies untouched

to lands unknown

to spirits unseen

into a bliss of its own.

..for the Bell to toll...

Image by Iksodas, Model - Lela Rae

As I wait for the bell to toll

I reminisce all through my life

I dance to and fro

as never ever before

I sit at the pedestal of Death

no matter how hard I pray

it will happen, come what may

I had spoken never in jest

-take my life if that's best

ultimately that did happen

you asked for my life in a way

tough to balance myself in two boats

standing still on dancing moats

one means life the other death

but why for me its the last breath
Verse by Ravprinderya

Fate it is...

Verse by Syn Onym

Fate it is that I am

alone

where there is place

for two.

And I long for you to be here

next to me,

to snuggle up

close to you

to close you inside

and then I won't be

but one with you,
beating to the same

rhythm of life.

Still I am and you are

where you are

Now I am one

with you inside my being.

And fate it is

that we are alone

in our worlds.

Who is she?

Verse by Ravprinderya

While sitting near the puddle of tears

I peer in and see

a beauty staring back at me

Who is she? Do I know her?

a dimpled cheek with cupid lips

candidly she winks at me!

I look around in amazement

Do I really know her within or without?

No doubt I have seen her somewhere

prancing over trees and soaking in the stream

her nubile laughter rings in my ears

Miserably I try moving away

so she twinkles her waif eyes

and shyly waves at me

she is but a distant memory

unknowingly she visits me

quite like a tresspassing malady!

Lost..

Image: Inese Kalva

Verse: Ravprinderya

I walk down the same path time and time again

the lone pebbled path as if i am lost

i dont want to walk down but do it all the same

my person keeps changing - a daughter, a mother, a sister,a friend but never a lover

no one seeks me that way

i walk fast most times

and trip many too

the grazing and bruises soon heal

i brush the dust and leaves off my hair

how come i get lost everytime

i wonder and giggle

how silly of me!!i know it well like the back of my hand

but i dont know whats on the inside the lines on my palm

those lines i would like to tread

but the moment i reach them they fade away and i m lost again

Delete, he says

Image by Haim Zaslavsky (photosight.ru)

he says delete me from your memories

i say how to do that because they hurt

he says it is very simple just press the button

i say how to do that it is tough to find it

he says search find and delete

i say please help me to do it

he says ofcourse i will help you

i say it is so basic and simple

he says yes it will be for you too

i say if it is why are you asking me ?

he says nothing but wants me to proceed

i say ofcourse anything for you

he says do it fast and clean

i say i cannot do it i am not made that way

i guess he has not more to say!!
