Her mind scattered
in abstract sadness
not quite here or there
a dull ache standing like a heavy weight
that refused to leave the heart.

Bruised Sky
Bruised sky
I return to you
with my heart
full of sunshine
to ease your pain
you, terrace of hopeless hearts.

On Edge
You stood on the edge of your thoughts
Mind lost in the pouring rain
lost to the orpheus ache of your heart
lost to the raw pain

Under Quiet Rain
You laid on the ground
under quiet rain
listening to the sound,
of thoughts, in your scattered brain
letting go the need to be found…
as the drops poured on your pain,
you laid on the ground…
under quiet rain.

Contemplations of the quiet mind
Contemplations of the quiet mind…
as it slowly rewinds
the cascading waves
of thoughts
falling in an infinite abyss
of feelings
that drift in your eyes
floating in the skies
of everlasting dreams
drifting with the winds
of dark storms
looming at the edge of the sea
as you fly free
in the pouring rain
of the subdued pain
of the world
floating gently
with the contemplations…
of the quiet mind.

That day
That day…
The world forgot to be kind,
and you forgot to be patient,
and in between figuring out who you were,
and where you came from,
and why you were here,
the clouds of life,
poured on you,
and your heart cried with the rain…
but,
when it was over,
and though the world did not change,
you felt lighter and soul felt cleansed,
and you noticed the smiles among the frowns,
and drenched in what was your pain,
you found that little piece of joy again,
you followed the rainbow of life.

First Flash Fiction – She Slept In
She had always been an early riser. She liked the feel of the morning light touching her face… It was the cleanse for her mind…She loved watching sunrise. But that morning, something was different… The blankets were too comfortable, and her body seemed to have found that perfect spot on the bed…so when he had called her softly, to go on the morning walk, she muttered something unintelligible and gone back to sleep.
Then the phones were ringing and the doors were banging and her world had turned upside down. He was hit, there was blood everywhere, they had taken him to the hospital…it was a hit and run. She hung up the phone, they had declared him dead. Was this a dream? Was she still sleeping? She did not want to wake.
To smile again…
please click on original
Let the barriers fall,
and teach that wounded heart to smile again…
For you are part of this magnificent universe,
that smiles back at you if you look carefully enough,
once you remove your veil of tears…
so let the barriers fall,
and teach that wounded heart to smile again.
Sometimes
Sometimes…
on moments of quiet contemplation,
my heart gets heavy without permission,
Refusing to hear any reason,
of the mind,
sometimes.
