In romance with myself

IN ROMANCE WITH MYSELF!

The evening was hazy
But with love in the air,
it was absolutely crazy!
And to add spice to it,
the huge window glass
at the premier 7th floor
was soaking rain tears,
as if seeding n making
the life organs greasy!

No sooner did I realise,
the dusk became dark,
The yellow lights along
the black metal road,
started creating an arc!

Just next to my hotel,
The view was marvellous
Rainbows around the arcs,
were igniting the sparkle
to the clicking glasses
and the red wine bottle!

Day had become night,
making me ponder…..
Day being as a man,
always admired by women
Night being as a woman,
always fantasised by men!
Both chasing each other,
yet never……..
reaching out to the other,
perhaps an unspoken
understanding with each other!

As if they are Black n White!
Except for shades of ‘Grey’
that is, Dusk and Dawn….
offering the only times of
confluence in their life, and
giving us own precious moments,
absolutely ideal to capture stills,
As well as revered for the frills!

The bright headlights of
speeding cars on slant,
were disappearing fast!
A reflection of motion but,
somehow giving an illusion
of dissipating energy too
in that magnificent ghat!

I abruptly left the cosy bed,
stood next to the window
to gauge the moving life,
pay attention to the details!
But the big silhouette
of my aspirations on glass
completely clouded vision,
when I was trying to Bail!

Rays of hope were still alive,
Trying penetrate through cloud,
and gunning for outside view,
For it to be once again live!

I heard the thud of sound!
And turned back to see,
the wind slamming door,
making it flutter on rebound!
and driving the wine glass
chuckle against the gravity,
crash down but with class!

Felt like dipping into this
vast pool of red, and
feel the taste of love n bliss!
Instead I withdrew suddenly,
leaving the sillhoute alone,
and started for the beach!
To be at an empty shack,
that was full of lives and
yet not within my reach!

I could not resist my desire,
but to look back at the
abandoned symbol of fire!
And I found sillhoute
breaking barrier of glass,
and coming closer to the gyre!

All that I wanted to tell her,
was as to how much
it meant to be with her!
My ego didn’t let me
open up n create a vent!!
My eyes said all that I meant,
She smiled back with her eyes!
sealed my lips with her lips,
and shut me from all sides!
