DOWNTOWN TRAIN

Rains and memories
Memories and rains
All through the window
Of a furious train

I HAVE SEEN THE RAINS

I have seen the rains,
I have felt the rains,
More emotionally
Than physically.

I have drank from the rains,
I have shared from the rains,
More addictively
Than compulsively.

I have heard the rains,
I have sung the rains,
More in verses
Than hymns.

I have sketched the rains,
I have splashed the rains,
More as a child
Than being an adult.

I have held the rains,
I have hugged the rains,
More emotionally
Than casually.

I have saved a part of the rains,
I have saved an element of the rains,
Only to rejoice with you
In their crowning glory.

BREAKING AWAY

Shhh... 

Don't waste a breath more

For we shall not reunite

Our nights were beautiful

Our days made more beautiful by them

Not a word more

For we shall not restart

These lost conversations

Shhh...

Not a word more or less

For we shall not re-look

Into this present

Which will turn into a broken past

Heeding to none

Yet dedicated to some

Shhh...

Don't waste the smile I adore

For we shall not recover

From the trauma

Of not just a separation

But the pain of 

Breaking away

Breaking away from everything

That was once us and will now be

A mere YOU and ME

Breaking away 

From the myth

That we too were once 

Two rebellious and too infectious lovers

Shhh...

Don't waste another moment in waiting

For we shall be alone again

Let me help you embark on a new journey

From today you on your own 

From tomorrow I on my own

Narrating, repeating, printing and sharing

Tweeting, pinning, retweeting and re-framing

Our lost story and a newly written poem about

Breaking Away
