The Road

What holds for us in the future is,

what we build

What we leave behind is,

just foot prints

The road comes from no where

And it leads to no where

It walks with us

We carve it

We build it

we lead it

And finally we leave it

Light From Heaven

Shaken by the disbelief of my heart broken

and shattered I ask heavens and hells together

To answer my plea and show me the light, for

I felt lost, left alone in the debris of lost love, bruised

and broken drenched in my own tears and dampen soul

You hold me in your arms, I feel light, as

a feather flowing in the breeze, unknown

of its origin and unaware of its purpose

you guide me to the light inside you

I find me

(C) Juztamom

Shared with NaPoWriMo. The prompt was to write a poem in the form of a curtal sonnet. The curtal sonnet is shorter than the normal sonnet, fourteen line sonnet. Instead it has a first stanza of six lines, followed by a second stanza of four, and then closes with a half-line.

W For Wild

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

jump like frogs

move like elephant

wild family

W Wild

We are quite wild as a family and no we don't behave much socially also. What is the fun in being a child if you have to behave like an adult everywhere? Yes there are places where they can't misbehave (Or act like a child) but there are a lot of other places where we behave and act like kids, birds, cats, monkey, elephant, frog etc etc. And that is so much more fun than being an adult.

Do you always behave? Or rather behave like a kid or is there a child in you that comes out on occasions? If possible share an incident when you were a kid and loved it.

I Run Around

Round and round I run around

In circles

I stop here

I stop there

Not knowing here

Not looking there

The sparkling white

The lovely light

The dancing clowns

The golden browns

In circles

But I don’t stop

And I don’t look

I am walking up

And

Walking down

in circles

The fire in the sky

The beautiful bride

The naked kids

The lonely tides

I pass through them

I look through them

But I don’t stop

And

I don’t look

I just keep my eyes

On the road

And move ahead

In circles

Where am I going?

Who knows?

When will this end?

Who knows?

What I know is that

You told me

I will find you

At the end of this circle

So,

I don’t mind

And

I don’t care

I just walk away

I just walk your way

In circles

Round and round I run around

In circles

The Wall

What divides you from me?

The red sweltering mount

The endless lines of bricks, and

infinite mounds?

Who built it and why?

Did they put a heart inside?

Can it feel our love?

Can’t it feel our pain?

Would it cry if we leave it alone?

Would it wonder in the unknown of,

Loved and lost?

Can it feel the warmth of our souls entwined,

through it?

Can it feel the cold of our tears submerged, and

lost in it?

 

May be it will start breathing our breaths

May be someday it will come alive with our love

May be someday it will bleed and cry

And call our names

then melt away with the heat of our heart

Uniting our remains

Me

Go ahead define

Put me in your confines

Build a bracket

Draw a line

But I promise you

Everytime

I will defy

If I have to,

Everytime

I will decide

Because I have to

I am not you

Just like you are not me

Don’t step in my shoes

Don’t wear my heels

They are MINE

And only MINE

It can break,

It can hurt

It will break

And it will hurt

But I know

How to get up

How to heal

I don’t need you

Or anyone

To teach me

How to live

I am me

Not you,

I am free

Just like you!

Questions And Answers

Why can’t I fly you ask?

Oh yes you can sweetheart

Just close your eyes

And open your heart

Your mind is your wings

And your words your arch

Why can’t I float you ask?

Oh yes you can sweetheart

Let go of your reserve

And leave any charade

You will glide like a fish

And float like a bard

Can I be you right now you ask?

No hold on sweetheart!

Why not? I can’t wait to start!

You can be whoever you want to be

But you will be you my love

A little of me, a little of us

But a lot of you

And believe me you is enough

But there is still time for that

There is still time to grow up

You can hold my hand for some more time

You can be just mine for some more time

Be a piece of me for some more time

Till you become you

S For Spice

Snippet Of A Day In My Life

heated phone call

sorry and make up

spice of life

S Spice

A small fight and a big makeup! This happens almost everyday. I would never ever change it. This is what adds flavors to my day. Too much sugar would kill me.

How often do you have such fights? With your spouse/Parents/Siblings? Would you rather not fight or like me you love spicy more than sweet?

Color Of Love

I ask what the color of love is

Some say red

It is as bright as red

As burnished as burns

As deep as blood

And as red as red

Some say it is blue

As pristine as a lake

As gorgeous as the sky

As pure as her eyes

As beautiful as blue

Some say it is orange

The orange of the evening hue

The glow of the burning desire

The after-effects of a deep set fire

As fiery as orange

Some say it is green

The green of a prayer

The passion growing in nature

As appealing as rain washed trees

As green as soft velvet grass

As bountiful as earth

As abundant as green

Some say it is white

As pure as white

As calm as white

As absorbing as white

As transparent as white

As white as white

I say love is colorless

Colorless yet full of color

It is like a rainbow

Glowing in all the colors

Still colorless

Embarking on the glory

Bestowed by someone else

Glowing in the presence

And absence of colors

Getting drenched in rain drops

Sailing in abundance

Being shy in the sky

And commanding on earth

Being alone and lonesome

Yet being together forever

Coming and going

Yet lasting forever

Yes...

Love is a rainbow

Blooming in the eternal spectrum

Of passion, romance, being together and apart

Being one and being alone
