strings of my guitar.....



the strings of my guitar still lie broken,
waiting for my fingers to play over them.
to play a tune to make forget,
the nights when my pillow stayed wet.


the tunes you hummed with your hand in mine,
those moments of the rhythmic divine.
the whispering of those lyrics in my ear,
no matter how much I try,
brings a numb cold tear outta my eye.


and when words fail to come,
the lines are lost.
the fingers so numb, like deep in frost,
the strings of my guitar still lie broken,
waiting for my fingers, to again play over them,
to make a tune,
to reach deep into your heart.

a call ..... that was better not received...(fictional)

........the morning was pleasant, as it was almost 4 a.m and the birds were rising up with the sun...and I was going off to do my work that was pending since night ...... SLEEP... good afternoon..it was the time I woke up..nothing special, as it had become usual for me in my holidays. But something that happened in the evening was not the regular stuff. It was something that I longed for almost 2 years in my life...a call from my long lost past......but now this was a call that I no more expected after the very harsh and bitter break up. Waking up irritated, saw the number flashing on the screen.....unknown.....reject....silent mode...sleep again Again the "dur dhwani vartalaap yantra"...a.k.a. cellphone started "burrrrrrrr-ing" from under the pillow. The unknown number again...But this time I decided to receive it. "Hello ?", I replied in a broken, husky, irritated voice....and there was a similar husky, broken response from the other side... ...

my very first blog...so thought would start wd myself... a simple guy born to a simple family on a date (11th Sept.), that became a reason for words, that was though not meant by the landers they landed hard on me. Words that imposed me as being guilty to have a birth date, that led to the fatal death of hundreds exactly 11 years after I was born..... But with time as those words faded, so did the people from my life who claimed them. And to my experience I learned one more fact of life, "nothing lasts forever". Not even the power of the almighty, as his creations of eras, is run down by one by one disaster of the evil. And so is the evil won over again by Him. So, basically, it's me, a guy just 20 ....who has seen a much of love, hate, promises kept, promises broken....but I know that there is a lot in store for me to see...so fingers crossed...
