THE PERSON BEHIND THE MASK

Walking down this street alone,
Not realizing how big I have grown.
I am still stuck in my past,
With scary memories which will always last.
People called me a loser,
Changed myself from sober to boozer.
Along this path I found you,
I thought you were one among the few.
You became important part of my life,
I hoped you would even be part of my afterlife.
We made memories together,
I believed you would never betray me, never!!!
I was busy in eliminating my loneliness,
Hoping to experience some happiness.
Everything changed when i realized ,
Watching the waves at the seaside.
That everything I was experiencing was temporary,
Myself under sadness I had to bury.
I had forgotten the fact,
That , all people do is act .
I was just a temporary medium of happiness,
To compensate their loneliness.
My time in their life reached the end,
I was once again left to wait for someone else to lend,
A small part of their time.
Finding someone worthy of your time is the most difficult task,
Always remember to look through the person behind the MASK.

THE TWO SIDES OF A COIN

While he took his last sip of coffee at starbucks,
On the other side of the tinted glass window a man took his last breath starving

Sometimes all we need to do is Share

THE EMPTY ENVELOPE

     It's been a year since i have been empty. Lying in this corner unattended i feel so lonely. Miss the times you filled me with a letter and sent it to her,expressing your feelings for her. The smell of the perfume you sprayed on me i still crave for. The ego between you and her has left me lifeless. The smile on her face when she reads your letter i miss. I hope you both reunite to bring me back to life.


 

    

THE LOVE WHICH NEVER DIED

I opened the door and quietly sneaked in. I did not want to wake her up. I could see nothing. It was totally dark. It was 11:30 PM and i had reached home after the hectic work at my office. My hand reached the switch to turn on the lights . I realized there was a power shutdown. Unfortunately my phone's battery was also dead. I had only one option, to light a candle. I headed towards the kitchen to find a candle. It was pitch dark. Suddenly I hear a sound. I freak out and shout "Who is that?". The reply came back in the form of complete silence. i could not move, I stood still with fear. I shouted "Is that you??". The reply was silence again. I moved forward, but my search for candles ended in vain. I sat down in the darkness and waited for the power to come back. The clock struck 12. Suddenly there was a change in the surroundings. Heavy winds started blowing and the windows in the bedroom forced itself to open because of strong winds. From that window came light, very bright that everything was visible in the room . Then came this voice in the room with a loud but sweet voice "HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE". Soon the power was back and everything returned to normal. I realized that it was my birthday and she had come to wish me. Yeah!! My love. "I Love you", I said looking at her photo hanging on the wall. YES!! . She was murdered by some dacoits in the room few years back.
