Deep inside her I sleep

Deep inside her I sleep

_____

The sound reaching out to me from the sea

Is not what I desire

Or even want to hear

But still it reaches out to me

Through the open window

Of the high rise building, where I am enclosed in

And trying to live and close

But still the Window remains

A window out to the sea

That I can not close.

Even if I try hard or desire harder

As

The window glass that I broke

The other night

In frenzy of the remains of my desires

Unbroken, unfulfilled.

In the stupor of alcohol induced passion

And call of the stormy night

The window remains just a window

Nothing more and a lot less

Glassless, desire less and view less

To the open world.

Still I didn't hear the cry

Or the sound of waves

Pounding on the beach, few hundred yards away

Still I let my heart break into pieces

On the breakwater

That walks out

Few hundred yards deeper into the deep sea

And I see

The waves breaking against it

A break out from the prisons of earth

Out to the sea

Try as hard as waves might

Could not stop breakwater from moving in depth

And deeper still

Then Why still

All the time the Sea calls me?

Is it free from stopping, bonding and holding

The Breakwater free from breaking me?

Does it want me to come

Merge in her depths

Just like the path that sinks in her

After few meters of walking along, with me.

Or is it just a sign - an omen

Of my solitude

All alone

Like the sea

Even though Rivers, clouds and the horizon

Sink into her depths and be within.

Why? Why?

She is not with me, now

When she was with me

Long lives ago

("Long time" if you will!)

And she is not coming back to sink

Into my depths of desires, needs

Or in my intense pleasure

Or, my darling,

My watery grave with me.

Love, Lust and Desires to BE

Love, Lust and Desires to BE

________________

There is a thin line

Between love and lust

Between sea and sky

Between me and you

Such a fine line

That I can see

Touch it from

Here

(Enclosed in the high rise monster

That mostly dot the sea )

I am reaching out to be.

From here, I hear

-Silence is whispering to the sea

Waves percolating through the window

Where darkness of my erotic thoughts

Seep in through the night's gateway

A window with three glass frames

Barred, framed and up-curtained

Unveiled and naked.

From here I see

From here I can reach out

And tear them apart

The love and the lust

The entangled Sea in the sky

And cleave out

A divide between

With my desire

To BE

Some time I want to be - BE

Some times Sea in all its thrashing about

With waves and tsunami's just want to BE too

Some times the sky

With its dark cloud and their silver linings

Just wanna BE

Some times all of us want to

Reach out

Separate love from lust

And desire just to BE

Just to be in love

Pure, undiluted, undefined

Just Love

LOVE

Love to be

Burning Bridges...

Burning Bridges

________________

Sitting alone

Burning her bridges

Piece by rending piece

Even before my heart could smell

The acrid smoke of breaking

The bridge is down

Under the bridge

Heart tries hard to keep

The fire from going on hurting, flame by flame

Her face, turned away

In the flicker of the burning lights

Refuses the bits food that he feeds

His dying love, and dies at last.

Made of blood, as foolish as it sounds;

Memories drip, from my bleeding heart

And love cast her name, again and again

On the sands of time

Waves upon waves, sea in vain

Wipes the effort, again and again

Why do I write

Why do I write on the sands

Knowing it will be wiped out

In no time, but still I do

As I know she is oriented

Towards Sea - the sea of humanity and of love

His bridge still is not burned, while she has

Burned her bridges

Life times ago
