For the love of dead



With what sleepless nights
the Gods above created flowers
A dreamy sketch,soft globes
faint,featherlike whispers
too fragile to the touch,these petals
evanescent in their freshness
they fill me with tears.


They fill me with tears
these lovely flowers.yellow,red and white
and some faded.They are dead.
Sharing space with their brothers
too timid in their faded beauty,sinking in their ugliness
For them,the most,my eyes go moist.
won't they feel so lonely?


won't they feel so lonely?
these odourless.lifeless,beauties
limp in their shame,they hang their heads low
Their skin still so soft,so tender
bereft of the Spirit-Goddess they wonder
what human hand would throw them in the bin
so they turn to dust,to become fragile again
fresh again,and loved again.

The dead brothers-in-fate,I weep for you.
I love you.

Heyy ashes,
i see the sun shining,
i see new buds forming
from where the flower dropped
i see beauty even in dying

OK OK OK
i felt wat ur feeling
but dat was a long time ago

wat more u want ?

u said u dont want love
u dont want charity

LOVE is not sharity

i didnt get love from family and friendz

He will do dat for u too
and it isnt charity

He loves u

Saby--*smiles* i think I remarked in one of my comments that your heart is in the right place,it's just that yer brain is screwed.You prolly are a bit patronising to me..you see some similarities.I don't know.Maybe I would be like you when i am old.

But fuck that I won't be old.

Hate that cycle...I think God was drunk when he designed the wheel of Life.

Nice poem Ash.

Keshi--haha,a drunken God.I love that image.

*smiles*...i always feel good when you drop in.

ah ash..I am drunk lately..I feel so.The world is spinning briskly and it is hard to keep pace..I am growing old too.I have lost stability..and I am writhed in excruciating agony and sucked in a whirlpool of love lorn world..

chikka u said it!well ..you are just in the teens girl:) it is a rollicking period of ur life..for me?my life has been little screwed up..and I dont understand..my past haunts me..weird thoughts have taken control of my head.I cant keep my emotions pent-up.I want to be released..just like a drunkard
lets go of his emotions and set himself free...

ITCC post 100 comments pretending to be me, but u remain the same shit and I remain the power that annoys the hell out of u lol!

Keshi.

Ashes said...

keshi-- the disorientation will pass soon.It's not age,and certainly not mid-life thingy,which lovey said..it's just disillusion.You'll come to terms with it Keshi.Just hang in.

de.vile--*smiles* oh lovey,it that feeling is mid-life crisis,then I suffer it on daily basis and come out of it too.

ha! but then i can hide in the blanket of "look me is manic-depressive"

to anonymous Vs Keshi banter--guys,please for fucks sake...

Both in the vastness and the richness of the visible universe the invisible God is adumbrated.
