foggy memories




Winters!!!!! now that it has finally come. it has brought the same dread that is synonymous with it. how it reminds me of home. those frozen days.......and even more frozen nites......da huge bonfires we used to make.......da smell of da roasted potatoes in da fire....children with red cheeks and forever dripping gooey nose.....women with shawls wrapped tightly against themselves battling with the wind to walk straight......dose foggy days wen u were caught in a mystery land....and dose cosy coffee shops with everflowing customers.....da horrible looking goosebumps on the skin while bathing....and the warm and soft bed that woulds get wet with leaking hotwater bags.......da innumerable momos we used to devour and scald our mouths.......da sweet tea dat i used to steal frm aji.....da way we used to climb hills....chase dogs and pluck berries......da way we used to walk hand in hand....warm yours....cold mine.....da dreadful fog where i pushed you n u never came back again...i wanted you to get lost but not forever.....n i stil wait for you every winter but u r gone forever!!!!!!

freedom!!!!!

no look of concern
no word of reproach

no chains of bondage

desire in eyes
ambition in heart

strive for da stars
oh so high

aspired frredom
granted freedom

fly fast n far

lonely is da journey
something's gone amiss

tired and strained
but der's pride involved hea

look for someone
but none so near

heart grows cold
n nothing is warm hea

want to get down
dun desire dis freedom

want to rest forever now

on something warm

n something tender......

blah again!!!!!

da hungry eyes of da child stare at me
speaks no word yet i can see
da burden of sorrow he is made to carry

da tremble in a voice filled wid fear
da crying of da doomed
all reach ma ears

i can feel da pain of tears
da hate for humanity
dat a man bears
but der's none
to see dem
to hear dem
to feel dem
none to heal dem.....

blah

on and on

the voices continued screaming

till they drowned

the sound of my own breathing

bound and gagged in some

dark corner of my mind

what lay behind me

and the miles that r yet to be covered

can i ever come out

untouched out this

can i ever not be touched by anything at all

or will i some day just wilt and be strewn apart just like you !!!!
