Buried deep within me
Lay the pains from yesterdays.
Careful was I to keep them hidden,
Was that to live in a make-believe world I made for myself,
Or to make others believe that I am untouched by the prickles?

I visit those hidden tears,
To feel those pains once more,
To make me strong when I am fragile,
I go through the tough times within my mind, to realize
The strength within me, and come out as a winner wearing the hidden crown.

Written based on the prompt – The Hidden Crown given by Manuscript Tunes.

It was destiny, I have been told,
When I was left to wrestle with the jaws of death.
Destiny took the glory once again,
When I fought my way out.
No, I am not hiding behind my destiny.
I am writing my own destiny
Because it can be rewritten!

The broken memories

goes back and forth

to find its way back.

The broken memories

fragments of which

pricks the heart at times.

The broken memories

wailing, for a bit

of attention.

The broken memories

like roses, spreading

the fragrance,

peeking from the past.

The broken memories,

is it my dilemma

or the broken memories

calling me back?

“Life isn’t fair, sweetheart. If it was, then I would have been married to the football captain of the school, not to the science club head!”
“If she married him then you would be talking to your dad in prison now, honey, and I don’t think he is in a position to buy an iPhone.”
“And dear, don’t tell me that you prefer the timed visits than sitting here relaxing,” James said turning to his wife.
Lori smiles as their lips meet.
Christie scoffs at the conversation realizing her iPhone dream is not going to come true anytime soon.

She was thrilled as he got on one knee, gently taking her hand and let the words out, “Will you marry me?”

Though they never told each other how they felt, both of them knew that they loved each other. After all, there is something mysterious about those untold words, as they tried to speak their heart through gestures; love is undying when words are carried through gestures!

As she was about to say “yes,” he stood up and asked “How was it, Amy? You think she will say yes?”

Heartbroken, she said “yes, who wouldn’t? ” then he took the ring and put it on Amy’s finger, taking her by surprise and said to a teary-eyed Amy as they embraced each other, “That’s what I was hoping you would say, my dear.”

“Lights in Diwali,” they said it was, brightening the earth.

Is that how we appear to the people from below?

Wondered all of us, alike, never seeing us from distance.

Lights in Diwali accompanies with puffs of smoke, why so?

There is no smoke around us other than puffy clouds.

And those thundering noises from down there, how it happens?

Because dear, it isn’t perfect what they are doing there.

Our lights are natural, but they are producing it artificially.

The smoke and sound are byproducts of their ignorant doings.

Stars are wonders of night, never could replicate it elsewhere!

Today is one of those days,
I am sad for no reason.
I am not aware of the whys,
I feel broken.
Inspiration sucked out of me,
as emotionless I feel.
Like a leaf falling
in the autumn breeze.
I smile for the sake of it,
never fulfilling the meaning;
Today is one of those days!

She looked at the art, puzzled. It didn’t make any sense to her. The stones, tiles, clock with numbers shattered, bottles – she thought it was garbage piled on a corner.

But it is displayed as art in the gallery. People are looking at this one in particular very curiously, very impressively.

Only she couldn’t understand why!

Probably it is like her marriage –  messy inside-out but for the outsiders it gave a curious element, with the way they managed to come off like one happy couple.

Yes, that’s it, garbage piled on a corner, impressing the viewers!

It is been some time since she started walking now. Her mind raced to keep up with her tireless feet.

Finally, she took her stand and responded to the abuses. It was time, she defended herself and stopped justifying him. He said sorry, it was alcohol, hurting was not intentional. But never he took steps to control his addiction, never!

Now she left him, away from his life, his house.

She finally ends her walk in front of a restaurant. Sipping water, she dialed her friend’s number on the phone.
When someone answered, she said, “It’s over, for good, finally!”

I saw glimpses of me,
Laying on the beach with you,
Ignoring my arrival, you whined
about work; spoiling rest of the vacation.I touched you soothingly,
When your thoughts wandered aimlessly,
But adamant were you,
In shaking off my presence, worrying about tomorrow.I’m Happiness  – find me yet?
