Frozen
and numb to the core
sitting and gazing
at the barren sky
a lost gaze in the eyes
looking into the emptiness
Heart impaled with your thoughts
and lips
tired of serenading you
on my broken knees
and the sunken heart
I seek permission
for you to let me go
free me from all this
ugliness
Getting tangled in your
broken unkept promises
stuck in the limbo of your
truth and reality
trying to make sense of your
words every day
have chased away
all my sanity
It’s getting hard to breathe like this
the fake and empty promises
the unfaithful breaths leaving
my body
I’m choked and gasping
for more of you
waiting for you to return
with a fresh breeze of
purity
Standing alone at
the crossroads of my life
waiting for your
silhouette to appear the
corner
I waited and wept
till eternity
for a promise
that wasn’t kept.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.

That’s the beauty of a writer. A writer is best known when he/she has no idea what are they writing. And that happens like a lot of time so congrats!
And stay well love. Take care.
