The Walk...
















A silent walk this is
Down the memory lane
My Dried cells awake
With every step I take
Long lost pals I meet
On the receding way
Time has sculpted them
Each in a unique way
Few are glad to see me
And join my simple trot
While few are just distraught
Estranged in their own path
But let me just walk-on
Into the sands of time
Collecting what I can and
Coloring the Sepia land
My own history beckons
As I awake from Oblivion
Let me just walk on
Let me just walk on…

The Paper Heart...


On the floor lies
A forgotten heart
A crumpled tissue
Used and discarded
Lifeless,
Loveless,
Red.

I take it in my hand
Straighten the wrinkles
Scribbled all over
A tale Blotted with
Tears,
Fears,
Blood

I tear it to bits
And throw it up
The wind carries off
As I walk on…
Hopeless,
Heartless,
Dead…
