Remember this as the world crashes down. There was a falling building inside that raindrop. The streets engulfed in flames are behind this wall of rainfall. I can feel it; even if it isn’t real.
Remember these lips. They press against yours softly as I curl my body against yours hidden within the sheets. These sheets are my modesty. They hide my scars. The scars you lightly trace with your hands. No pity – just those soft hands. Sometimes when I can escape the madness in my head and the roars of all the noises and voices I can just feel those hands lightly tracing. Most times I can’t. I relish the moments I can; like now.
Remember the song we sang together, the first and probably the only song we will sing together. We both are horrible singers. We just happen to both know the lyrics as it was on the radio that cloudy day on the ride home. That really was an ugly day.
I’m feeling numb and I know I’m dying in a slightly accelerated rate than I had originally intended. I don’t mind.
Dying helps me remember this
And the magic that you weave, you once speculated lost..can never be truly, I knew I could always believe. And now I can feel it..its like a beautiful dream the first para..and it activates almost every sense..like I were living it and breathing ...and that I guess is always the biggest challenge of them all...to get someone to spend their life in your poem or in prose. And I did spend a section of it feeling like I was just watching you. And it was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like the first para and last line the most. In all love it. ~Shraddha

The above part was too good.. After this it kinda fell apart, after that for some reason though the theme was good the words kinda let them down..
Hahaha, well typical Sharad.
ReplyDeleteCause it went wayward and cute and fuzzy. I lost track of the destruction because I really try to stay away from it.
I know I am too easily consumed.
