I wanna pull you closer and freeze time forever,
That's when I realize a mirror stands between us.

-

Life.
Hope, Action, Disappointment.
Death.

-

First line is a statement.
Second line is reason.
Third line is contemplation.
Fourth line is a question.

-

Choice to walk upon
the road not taken.

I wish I were not trapped in the bubble.
The bubble of your love has destroyed me.

Time’s moving but I am standing still.
Still nurturing each drop of water until you return.

Will you return though ?
Even though you do, will you take me as I am ?

Of course, you must have adapted to the current world.
For me, time stopped the day you left me waiting.
You know Sanjay, I learnt beading.
I beaded a sheer necklace with our memory bubbles.

I wish I were not trapped in the bubble.
The bubble of your love has restrained me.

I wish I could glance at you once.

Maybe that’ll make be courageous enough -

To shatter the by-gone days
To let go of the fragile necklace
To be whole again.

-

My limit is not knowing
when to stop loving you.

-

I look at you,
diminished yet mature.

I stare at you,
at the brink of a mini-tour.

I glance at you.
Your many colours
reflect upon my inner eyes.

I look at you!
As I step ahead from yesteryears.

-

During the lyrics,
instead of singing
I exhale stories
for prosaic vivacity.

-

Well, I don’t mind errors
on the pages where you
imprinted your scent.
Even though it’s not
entirely me;
it’s mine ‘coz
you’re a part of me.

-

Too much of light
doesn’t denote
absence of darkness.

I embrace the chaos,
flexing my muscles,
knowing -
you’ll see me;
you’ll save me.
