For her I had all the love,
all I could ever
have,
sum up,  generate;
swim in and drown.
Only to shoot up
to breathe
in the air of hope.
 
And be giddy like
a happy boy,
in yellow shorts-
whistling on
those solitary boulevards.

And smiling, I stayed afloat
in the slow moving love stream;
hitting the right notes
in the thin air,
creating my own symphony
of pure and endless love.
The notes
originating from
the strings of my heart,
and the giant waves
of the mind.
Submerged in thoughts of her,
conscious and unconscious,
likewise.
My eyes feasting on her
and every blink showing
an evanescent flash.

And I drifted on,
slowly revolving
rapturous and liberated.
waiting for my union with her,
loving her a little more;
holding her vision a little longer,
living the moment
another lifetime.

Until one day a rusted lock
would give me
cancerous vision ..
making my life a giant vista
of space
with howling, screaming silence,
and walls so high, just so high-
that even my paper rockets and
empty bottles
wouldn’t ever reach and
rather would get washed away,
by the apologetic ocean.

Until one day, in another world
someone would find a letter-
blurred by saline water,
trapped in glass.
A letter
in the obliterated vacuum
of a bottle,
smelling of ancient death
and ageless love and
telling my verses to the world,
while asking my questions-
the ones that would have
been answered already.

Till then I would co-exist
with my my dark army
and sit on the broken bridge,
looking at the discolored house-
a waste of space with
chained nightmares.
And just whistle
throwing the bottle down and
wait for the splash and
another!

Fade to white.
