'The Coffee Shop'

I went by to the coffee shop today
Don't drink coffee but still chose to stay
Sat down at my favourite place by the green window pane
The sun rays danced as they fell on my hands
The glass between us,like a jealous lover awaiting his chance
The flower on the table,fresh and beautiful
Made me wonder for a minute,Did God ever get confused?

I sat there lost in myself wondering about the empty chair
I could do with some company,Strike up a conversation maybe
Hmmm.. but what would we talk about?
Life and its monotony??
Naa...Too depressing...usual routine
Travel? relationships?society?
Bet once we start, we'll have a variety
Its amazing how we would switch
one to the other
Leaving some and stretching others furthur
Gasps,sighs,laughter,tears
Emotions showing up like enthusiastic volunteers
Maybe for a while we'll let silence set in
Contemplate,retrospect,do some soul searchin
Enjoy the silence, enjoy not having to speak
Just listen to the jukebox play Jimmy Hendrix
Well we could go on,you and I
Conversations are never hard if we try

But I better be off, the sun has almost set
I surely need to work on time management
Yet am glad I stopped by the coffee shop today
Didn't drink coffee but chose to stay



RandoMusing!This is for thee! Thanks for the 'Blog-o-Honour' :P (oblivion)

'Case Adjourned'

You sit on the bench
Staring into space
wondering if it will
ever fall into place
The world shrinking
with every breath
People fading
and brightening again

What will it take
What more
For you to want me
What's the new price
Guess blood did not suffice

You wonder and You sound alarmed
Feel empty but put up a fight
Too much love
that could'nt be
You'd rather stare into space
and live in make belief

What will it take
what more
For you to Know
I love you
Real...not make belief

You stare into the coffee cup
It's a whirlwind in there too
You look at the sky
not the sun
you're awaiting a deluge
It'll help you hide away
But you cant escape the truth

What will it take
What more
For you to return
Rest your case now
Don't...
Don't let it be adjourned.

Oblivion

Each passing day
Shift I back and forth
'normalcy' to the absurd
Questions to the answers
Crowd to the alone

Details,do i care?
Yes..should I?
But no audience
No judgement,no applause,
No scope for repair

Pretence,the facade
Illusions,make belief
Cease for a moment
Breathe! Breathe!
Here..Put this on
Fits with the speech

Torpid,Decaying
Slowly fading
Yet....
The charm remains
I'm 'known' by you
You 'Know' me

Oblivion
Do i care?

I Bid thee...
'unknown'
I Bid thee farewell!

Daisy

They'll give you ideas
to make me happy
They'll tell you
what would make me sad
They'll say gift her a diamond
and that will make her glad
her eyes will twinkle
as they sparkle in her hand
You wouldn't need words to explain
she would understand

Dont listen to them
They wouldn't know my heart
Diamonds maybe a girls best friend
But I am a class apart
You wouldn't need diamonds
How precious they maybe
A Daisy is all I ask for
as pretty as pretty can be

A Diamond may sparkle
A twinkle it may bring
But after all its a rock
with nothing within
A diasy may not be tough
It may wither in a day or two
But its fragrance will fill my heart
and remind me of you.

Not the whole world
But a daisy would do
A poem would be good
But a daisy would do
Diamonds would sparkle
But I would gladly trade
coz in the end not they
but your love in a daisy
on my grave will be laid

'Drifting '

Drifting in the wind
I fall to the ground
Im picked by the wind
and again I take off
Up and Down
Turning inside and out
High and Low
Up and down
Here and there
Wat a life u must say...

Wat a life?
Oh how true.
sad that
I just bid it adieu
A broken leaf
I wander around
Till u fail to recognize me
Till the wind dies down

Dew Drop

Sparkling dew drop
I fancy you
Reflecting the twinkle of the sun
Giving me a glimpse of me
Till u cum undone

Sparkling dew drop
I wish i was you
Balancing on leaves
As they shake with the morning breeze
Hanging on to belief

Sparkling Dew drop
I am not you
But yet we are alike
I'm just balancing on a different leaf
Till I cum undone...

Burning Bridges

I turned my back
Started the walk with no regrets
The bridge burned
I had set it on fire
Now my feet stumble
You were the only one
I had ,
Who was mine,my True Friend.
then why did I burn it all down??
Truth can be deceiving
life without u can't be worth living
I wanted no chains around me
Your embrace I did not see
Was too busy choosing the right knife
to cut my soul deep

I feel the heat
but I dont dare look back
Is this guilt setting in?
What have I done?
I'm burning the bridge of life
I'm burning my friend alive.

No!! I turn back...
I'll do whatever it takes
to rebuild this bridge of life
The only road I know
points right back to you
Who do I have besides you?

How did I ever choose to burn you?

The tears from my eyes
quench the thirst of the flames
The smoke clears and I stare away
The bridge has fallen
But a plank remains...

I run across to your open arms
The burnt bridge has become my way..

I wonder why
You still stood to see me return
You kept the plank when all the wood burnt
Was I even worth this second chance
Was I even worth another glance
I cant believe my mind
Everyone failed me
Yet you remained
I cut you deep and scarred you with burns
Your love never ceased,
It just wanted me to return

I was running to set myself free
I was burning bridges
Was burning what was left of me
Your bridge I could have never burnt
Cause I never helped build it, I never had tried
You built it...you first walked over to me
Illogical,unreal,Love personified
I wonder why
You still stood to see me return
You kept the plank when all the wood burnt..
