& It was again a Dream!...

“Its still 4:30? Approximately an hour ago when I looked into it, it was showing 4:30. I then found that the seconds needle isn't moving, so how could the others do? Okay, let's ask someone...” I thought after looking into my watch.

“Excuse me! What's the time by your watch?” I asked a stranger.

“5:15pm” he replied & left.

I walked five steps to my left & bought a soft drink from a grocery. Lit a fag & sipped the drink waiting for my cousin at her college.

A girl with long silky jet black hair left loose, just walked from my left hand side to right & was moving quick into the crowd on the pavement. The fragrance from her hair mesmerized me & I realized that she should be the girl “I can never forget!”
I started running behind her & in just a few hops.... we were facing each other... & I said...

“Hi!”... in excitement to see her after years of gap.
She replied greeting me without even a smile... my expression then reflected depression...
“How come you are here?” I asked, just to add something before a 'Bye', cause I understood that she doesn't even wants to talk to me.
“ 'We' are now living here...” she replied with a suffix of “Bye...” and left...

I kept watching her, till she disappeared from my sight... and...
my eyes opened up all of a sudden. Everything was dark around me & I was lying on something soft. Realizing it's a mattress on my bed I understood that.... “It was again a dream!”


"Kalalo kuda kalavani vedana,
ilanae kalaga malachina avedana,
ilalo thoduga migilina kalalae,
kalam vodilo kadhaluga migilae..."

Evenings of Frustration!

By
Sitting in the room, with a system on the lap... unlocking every time it goes standby... thinking of doing something, but don't know, what? Opening the browse & staring at it... checking the mail box again n again, knowing that a new mail makes my hand-held device ring... thinking of what to do, my fingers stay on the keys, & eyes stare at the screen... feeling like doing something, that produces some adrenalin... answer for which being unknown, I stare at the screen, unlock it once again... feeling like walking on a road, though not alone, but surrounded by complete loneliness & immense darkness... I stare at the screen unlocking it once again... feel like writing a poem, describing the state-of-my-mind... feel like making a film, depicting the encounters within me... but, Iam neither a poet, rhyming my feeling... nor Iam an actor, portraying emotions of manipulation... & one more dawn of frustration turns into, the darkness of night, in a matter-of-c...

A Dream...

By
Riding my bike on the roads that I once used the most for the previous half-a-decade carrying loads of dreams first comes the place where I found my love & lost myself in her love... till then I wasn't able to define it & from then I had no words to express it... she is the one who has introduced a new phase of my life to me... she made me realize my dreams & promised to be with me... proceeding forward, arrived my destination... that part of earth, where my life lives... she was wearing a green-white dress in her usual single pleat style hair... I was standing beside her & her fragrance mesmerized me... for a second, I forgot why I was there, & she smiled at me again, but her eyes were asking a question... “Will you accept me now at least?”, I asked in reply... my heart got heavy & pulse came down... a pain that was haunting me from years, has got its intensity to the peaks & my eyes opened up realizing that I just woke up, I reminded...
