Nightfall

As time passes by, as day begins to yawn
I see the dark looking down on me
The silent caress of the twilight wind
The chimes in my heart ring
With the sound so sweet
That calls me to repose.
But yet it rings of anxiety, of fear
Knowing that one more day
Has been snatched away from my life.
One more day closer to death.

But I know I have to keep breathing
For I know not what tomorrow brings.
As the dark pulls down the curtain on light
And takes over the helm of time
Another busy day comes to a close.
Another page turned over in my book of dreams.

As I lie down to rest, staring at the ceiling
Questions run through my mind
‘Why am I here, what am I doing here’
‘Where am I going to?’
I close my eyes to see the last sleep.
That may give me my answers
To the questions that intrigue me
From daylight to nightfall…

Back Again!

A long break from blogging. A very long one indeed. There’s gotta be something that took me away from blogging, but actually there isn’t any! I was not interested in anything, not specially blogging. But then again I kept thinking I needed to come back. Make a come-back. So why not bring in a change?!! Its not a change that I thought about over sleepless nights or something. It just happened incidentally. Ya, I happened to write a poem! What the fuck! I can’t believe I did! And it got published in the college magazine too! Now let me make this very clear, this is not a great achievement or a masterpiece created in a month or two’s time over a bottle of booze each night. No. Its just a creation-not even a creation maybe- that took only a couple of hours. Something that I penned down…err…or rather typed down in Ms.Office when I was apparently in a numbed state of mind. Now I don’t know the reason why I was numbed down. Leave that part. So here goes, my first ever ahem…poem, maybe a disgrace to the whole poem-osphere, cuz it has not got any rhyme scheme! The rhyme scheme goes something like this- abcdef… and so on!!! I expect a few comments, if not a standing ovation!! :-D
C ya soon…
