Phir milay ya na milay

Because I was sick of being so sad, empty and lonely for so long. I wanted to write, and write I did.

-thisisrandomshititypedat5inthemorning.

Phir milay ya na milay

Your reflection etched upon the stretchy canvas 
Pure white light streaming through a hole pricked into oblivion 
Radiance of the soul, emanating through hordes of blackened trees and boulders 
Shimmering light bulbs, switching off with the cast of the Sun, down 

How deep the ocean trudges down
How simple your words are to me 
I keep a watch, I keep a distance 
Rolling belief in the herein staggers me 

Like birds flocking together to tell their tales 
Tales of hunting down a prey, a game 
Words of threat, of words, words and words 
Like you, I melt, lost

    Your closing notes are always very interesting. Sometimes, I love them. (like the one above) and then there are those which I think take a 180 degree turn from the entire poem and with those I do not connect. Haha. :-P

    Apart from the timing i do also write random shit, only at 4 am that is. And also it's not as good as yours.

  3. Sometimes you just inspire someone to get out of their blues and write again, a poem with a thousand hues.

    Hum ruk gaye to kya hua, Zamana Chalta raha,
    Ek roshni thi, bas us roshni main dil jalta raha.


    Loved the poem, keep writing.

    Interesting observation. Thank you. :) Your appreciation means a lot, trust me!

    Haseeb:
    Thank you! 4 am ain't that different from 5 am, the point is, random shit at random times can turn out to be beautiful compositions sometimes. ;)
    And don't eff emm ell, I am sure your 'random shit' is as wonderful and meaningful as mine, put in the right context. :)
