A Night That Changed Everything


A shiny, quiet and lonely night, 
Something continuously kept irking my mind, 
I tried to sleep but the anxiousness arose, 
When suddenly the phone rang and the time froze.


 I'm sorry to call this late at night, 
But it'd be a crime not to tell your son, 
That Ronny went out for a drive late night, 
When he met with an accident and never returned.


 Like a bolt from the blue, the news shook my world, 
Everything stopped moving and appeared to be blur. 
I couldn't gather the courage to visit the funeral, 
That day since, you've been fucking my life over.


 No matter how much I miss you, 
I'll never see you again, 
But I'm happy that you're gone now, 
At least now I know you aren't in pain.


 Four years have passed, 
But I still can't find serenity, 
So I visit the seafront whenever I feel down, 
To feel your vibes alongside me.


 I sit on the porch and the wind blows towards me, 
When I feel someone sitting right next to me. 
I don't want to open my eyes, 
For I know it could be false, 
So I enjoy the warmth of you besides, 
Because when I open my eyes, I know you'll be gone.

Shower

I sat under the shower, With lights turned off and hot water on.  Another day the loneliness consumes me, While another night turns into dawn. As the water hits my skin, And the warmth of it makes me emotional. My heart turns sad, While my mind has turned abysmal. I lift my head and look around, I find nothing but dark. That's when I realise the cracked pieces, Of my heart slowly falling apart. As the water gets warmer, Emptiness holds my mind and starts to enwound. While the steam and the heat inside the room, Simply makes me want to drown. Time keeps passing by, As I sit as still as death, When I finally hear myself cry, And I fall short of breath. Yet amongst all the darkness, I find a soothing comfort. For the dark is the only thing, Stopping this pain to spurt. So I embrace the black, And hope it wipes out all the dirt. As I turn off the shower, And cover the pieces, Of my body which you so cruelly hurt.

The Saddest kind of Pain

The moon sparkled like a diamond in the night sky as he stared at its beauty from the balcony of his bedroom. He lay as still as a statue on the naked floor at 3 in the night and grieved again as another day he soaked all the ache and another night neared dawn . Broken and numb with all the pain that had infected his body. A cigarette in one hand and a bottle of Imperial Blue in the other, he thought about her and how every moment spent with her felt like a rollercoaster ride of emotions. As he took a drag of cigarette, he thought about how the very first time they met. It was an accident really, he was swimming and he clashed his head against hers. Little did he know that clash of heads was going to turn his life upside down. It was really quick but that moment generated a spark which ignited heavy flames of emotions. He took another drag of cigarette, this time a little longer as his mind started to feel a little dizzy. He reminisced about the first time they had kissed. How they we...

Caught In A Dream

Mumbai - The capital city of Maharashtra. The cultural capital of India. The city of dreams. In this city of nearly 11 million, I was just another boy chasing my dreams, fighting a war with struggle everyday just like most of the people in this city.  The daily routine of catching the local trains, reaching for practice, getting all sweaty and muddy and returning back home in a train so packed, you have to literally search for the tiniest matter of space to keep your legs on the train. Yet there's something so charming, something so magical in this city of dreams which never let's anyone leave without smiling. I came here to fulfill my dream of becoming a professional footballer, and hoped that by the end of this year, I'll get a contract to play for the senior team. As the national league edged closer, we started working harder than ever. Training sessions got tough, fitness got tougher and the day got tiresome as ever. Life in Mumbai could sometimes prove to be a ve...
