Absence by Pablo Neruda

If Only I Knew

if only i knew
would 've mend it all

if only i knew
what i 've been apoloziging for
if only i knew

wish i DID
desire i KNEW.

none of your fault
all mine
only me to blame

only me to rectify
only me to mend
mend it all

all by myself.

the mess i made

the torture i did
the wounds 

is all if i could heal.

oh God_______
so helpless i feel.

tears please have mercy
sadness shower thy blessings
for i am naive

to my own actions
and his concerns
and his love

and his care.
if only i knew....
my words were so powerful

words so harsh
or actions so pricking
would have never 

done at all.

which of these 

is TRUE
if only i knew 
would mend them all.

i am the cause
i am the effect

i am the reason 
i am the result.

if only i knew.......
if only you said.......
or

if only i was sensitive
if only i was patient.

i know not the reasons
know not the actions
all that dejection

i just cant bear at all.

the wounds 

is all if i could heal.
oh God_______
so helpless i feel.

Yess ...!!! I see_______

I see rhythm,

I see symphony,

And i see.....

The harmony.

And now....i see

The “Poet” in me....

I hear beauty,

I hear Kalaa,

I hear her smile

And now...

I smell anger,

I smell love,

I smell the virgin.

And now....i see

The “Poet” in me....

I feel the sunshine,

I feel the moonlight,

I feel the poet.

Yess ...!!!

I see_______

A “Poet” in me.

DREAM of a REALITY

Reality : a dream.

Lived-enlivened

Relished-garnished.

Savouring the taste-----

Eyes smiled,

Feet stroked.

Lips blended,

Body froze,

Mind wandered.

Life shrunk

Into minutes.

Living by the

Energy of seconds------

Snuggled in warmth,

Stiffened in shivers,

Laughed of loneliness,

Blushed in happiness.

Flaps fluttered,

Body shook.

Wanderings still,

Shrink stretched.

A reality check.

The dream------- a far story.

Reality------- a curtained stage.

An unspoken theory,

Open eyes ignorant.

But the closed saw--------

Hidden dream of the reality,

Stage through the curtains.

A belief in the theory,

A faith in the reality.

Wish the eyes would close,

Soon again------

To feel, to live.

What they saw,

In the dream.

the DREAM of a REALITY,

a REALITY like a DREAM !!!!

Pinch.....

Lushness smiling,

The spread blooming.

Carpeted bareness,

Sparkling shyness.

Soft steps,

Silent whispers,

Said – unsaid,

The moments of togetherness.

Scenic beauty,

Garnishing minutes.

Gradients of colour,

Glowing the hour.

Muted movements,

Precious gestures.

An unuttered sound

Sinking in so profound.

   Yet unspoken was loud

The untouched alike

........A filled blue cloud.

Gathering each second,

Storing them safe.

The dream i dreamt,

True today.....

Just say the unsaid,

Pinch, touch ....say

Make believe ........

Its no more my dream

No more mine alone

The moment,

Most perfect,

A you 

A me

Just WE

An unsaid sound

Sinking in so profound!!!!

PS : remember i told you each other we knew 

A Perfect DAY.........

Life playing its chords,

Me playing mine,

A beautiful symphony.

Rhythm in the air,

Smelling the chills,

Heat  in the  soul.

Feet on their moves,

Fingers on the run,

Lips on their beauty,

Eyes busy too....

A perfect start,

A pefect end,

What more can i say....

------THE END-----

A new beginning

Soon to take off.

Each day a task,

Night, an awaited moment.

Living but dormant

Discovering accepting

Walking over,

Walking away,

Trying to smile,

Retain the pace,

Save the energy.

A mistake

Or

A challenge.....

Or

An assumption again....???
