I walked not alone.....

I walked not alone but ...
i Knew you were there somewhere...
Hidden .. enjoying me and my madness...
I knew you would smile silently...
Standing there willing to come and hold my hands and walk....
I walked not alone but....
I knew you would come when i got stuck at the crossroads...
Confident ... willing to guide me...
I knew you would pull me and walk along....
The confused streets despite of my unwillingness to open my eyes...
I walked not alone but....
Blissed with your presence.. I opend my eyes looked around....
The warmth of you breath has still not disappeared but...
You werent there anywhere....
I walked not alone but.....
Walked with your hidden smile in me
walked with the confidence of your words....
Little did i know few journeys are short lived....

I walked not alone but........

Its better to be quite.......

Its better to be quite , that's what I always did,
When you asked me if i like you ,,i thought ,
Its better to be quite as i always did..
When i saw them pulling my soul out of me,,,
Its better to be quite i said to myself...
when i saw my house collapsing and i needed a pillar to lean..
Its better to be quite and stand alone i decided...
When thousands of words came out as tears.. I felt
Its better to be quite and sleep over it...
When i silently heard all the lies said to me.. I realized
Its better to be quite and smile as a child...
When all relations, all belongings, every word and every color seemed
As fake as an illusion...i decided...
Its better to be quite and disappear into ashes with the furious breeze...

I remember
I remember how i hugged you and slept on a chilling cold winter morning
the only thing i could hear was your breath and your heart beat and
a train passing by from a far of distance seemed to break the ice of this silent chilling winter morning....
I remember how we friends walked on an highway on a summer afternoon
it was our laughter and giggles that filled my world and
a train passing by from a far of distance seemed to break the silence of this pleasant summer afternoon....
I remember how me, mom and dad sat together clueless on a rainy evening
it was their sighs , the water dripping outside the window that interrupted my thoughts and
a train passing by from a far of distance seemed to break the not so pleasant silence of the rainy evening
I remember the crowded railway station on a cool cloudy summer evening
many smiling faces, many clueless faces, many silent faces
It was few waving hands that made me realize that the train was moving ....and
all i could hear was your breath and your heart beat,
my friends laughter and giggles, silent sighs of my parents and the water dripping outside the window..............
