Like leaves falling randomly in autumn...blown away further by even the most gentle breeze...such are my thoughts...light...fragile...and momentary....

Waves of memory...

When lightning lit the sky...
And set the sea on fire...
I stood and stared....unperturbed by Nature's wrath
Didn't clutch your arm out of fear,
Didn't run to you for comfort...
Coz you're no more there...
To smile and say..Itz ok!

The waves rose, hit hard at the rocks,
Like each memory of yours hits at my heart...

The waves splashed, split and lost their identity,
Like I was lost in you...my destiny.

The unwanted waves, they're thwarted back and sadly recede,
In search of themselves to the sea...
After you walked away...I continue to look for myself in me...

A strong gust of wind, took away everything,
But the eyes still search for your smile,
The ears hear you calling, in the midst of the night,
The heart waits for you all the while...

A drop of tear.....and another one,
Waves of memory hit hard again...
The heavens start weeping with me too,
They are tears of loneliness,not rain...

I walk closer to the sea,
A numbness within me...
Kneel down and close my eyes...
Tears run down my face as I pray
"If only, the fiery sea would rise once more,
And take me with it...to the unknown...to a land faraway..."
