Though painful, Solitude stimulates our creative spirit.It is easy to live a life of compromise to avoid loneliness but then compromise is not "living". It is a challenge to find people whose steady presence steadily enables one to evolve as the person one desires to be. It is in my "solitude" that I hear my heart speak out what I wish to be and my biggest responsibility towards life is to find the real me.In my quest for the real me I'll cherish these " frozen moments".

Journey
Feeling of - till eternity
Feeling that engulfs
Desire intense to feel
Feel it pervade my soul
Hope of being granted
Peace eternal
Warmth bereft of hatred
A cold feeling makes me shiver
Shiver with fear
I long for the feeling
That love & caring brings
I try to hide my insecurities
But it creeps in
Peeps through the dark corners
I crane my neck & seek
The brightness of a new morn
The oh so beautiful warmth
I cross the boundary
Insecurities scream
Fear glares
I am unaware
The darkness is gone
Is this a dream
Everything pure
Is this the feeling of eternity
The end of mortality
The realization of a new life
Life beyond the Pains of life
No need for any fear
Now that I have reached here
A warm smile takes over
My frozen heart melts

Wishes
I may refuse the top of the world
Cause I wish for the simple warmth of a hearth
I don’t wish to have jewels ever,
Give me instead a hand to hold forever
Come what may – thunder or hail
Someone who will never- let me fail
I don’t wish for candle lit dinners
Just grant me lord -a kitchen of my own
Where even when I create the worst cuisine
That someone will say - it tastes divine
I don’t wish for treasure’s of the world
What I wish is simply more bold
I desire to have a world of mine
Where every moment will feel fine……..
A new beginning
To love myself & others who hurt (me),
Now I love the new myself,
for that is what I am.
Mistakes.....
I made & learned from,
I still have my doubts and fears,
But don’t indulge in tears
You....
With you around,
I don’t need new friends,
for true friendship I have found
I know this will not end,..
Past...
Where I come from
does no more count,
Today am sure of
The past pains being gone,
The future.....
You will lead me to,
The future of joy profound.
Happiness is what I pursue ,
A feeling long overdue I have found,
I know.......
You’ll always try and keep your word,
Today I don’t wonder what it might be,
The promise of tomorrow tells me...
Tells me......
Sunsets will promise a new dawn,
Fears no more will shadow the morn,
The fears now cower & run away
Knowing that the new me is here to stay.

Mother's plea
to a place new
But why can't I
pulling back are memories of You
Another tiring day unslept
Familiar are the moments left unwept
I would like to object
But I realize You have stolen my voice
Life is so confusing
Confused I am my head is reeling
unable to find the ground
I am afraid I'll soon be crashing
the world no longer attracts
Until now I thought I had it all clear
But this profound feeling has me all stressed
Have you seen my face, where hangs a tear
Killing me inside
Defeat is not easy for me to admit
I've always hid pain away
In this materialistic world I feel a misfit
I try to keep my sensibilities intact
But I find my mind falling apart
My breath comes unevenly
Trying to pull me back lest I die
I at the top of my lungs
But am unable to release my sorrow
My heart's sore beyond your belief
It believes there's no tomorrow
My sanity doesn't support
I am scared that I may indeed die
no one cares
So,do I say goodbye
What am I without my deeds- Just fiction ?
My identity - the summation of my deeds ?
My deeds - purpose or simple needs ?
My needs -Serendipity ?
Serendipity - I look for something, find it or something else?
My Control or lack of it - I flow with time, with flow of flow !
I flow - To grow ?
I grow - with solitude & self reflection ?
Self reflection - does itleads me to my identity ?
I am left wondering - what am I ?
Frozen Cry
A single moment or a never ending trail of silence
Does it make any difference to a lone existence
The chatter and cheer around
Makes no difference to the loneliness that abounds
The frozen coldness of my own presence
Overcomes the gaiety around
I wonder why this pain profound
Leaves unaffected the people around
I feel suffocated
As if my lungs perforated
I try to cry out
I can hear a feeble shout
Someone take me out of this Hades
To an Arcadia where love pervades
Will a solitary Utopian presence
Take my hand and lead me to the distant incandescence
