Chandelier

Drowned in my soliloquies of which-

I am not used to share with,

Habituated into my solitude-

I wander across-

A white wooden rose-

A half-moon,

A chandelier chants my name-

Maybe she is too alone!

Drifted apart-

In sanctuary-

In deepened solitary –

The chandelier still lightens up the room!

Alone she sparks-

With many companions-

All in distance, share her journey but not the light,

She seldom carries their fume!

They want to be a part of her journey,

But, not become the alley,

They together can’t match the fuel-

She brings all alone!

They share a destiny-

But, aloof!

All the white wooden roses withers away in the moonlit night-

The petals split-

All fallen flowers remind of fallen angels with no wings or song,

A chandelier still lightens up the world it doesn’t belong!

Oh, the audacity of leaving the person you love! To walk away with steady feet, While their heart still trembles

Mountainous

You were a mountain, I was a shallow fountain laying low. I could sustain you if only I had the

Silently, I have loved you for decades, Silently, I have chanted your name for thousand times. I have scripted an
