You are the parched pond,
Where I fell
For your love
Like raindrops.

-

Memories without a picture is like
You return from the sea
With parched feet.

-

You are rain
To my parched heart

-

I am breathless & parched
like a jaundiced leaf,
bulging veins of discontent
crying out for release
from this stubborn plaque
of toxic memories.

-

What kills me
Is not the vision that
Some clouds won't
Rain on me

But the fear
That they will darken
My firmament and
Devastate my heaven

And I will kneel
With my hands folded
Beggin' the clouds to rain,
To not leave me parched.

-

I want to shout in pain
But my throat is parched
In thrist of the pain
Of your name.

-

But, some dried leaves
that are someone's parched soul,
moreover which is tired of blooming desires...

-

I wake up and open my eyes to see the sun out,
When I realize that the fire in my heart is out,
I notice my skin to be dry as a parched desert,
I seem to have forgot I have rights to assert.

I cannot seem to find my long lost heart inside,
Which used to thud in my chest with you beside,
I spent my days with you only to have been denied,
The very presence of your warmth by my side.

My heart has been crying out tears of blood,
My heart stuck in your memories akin to mud,
I don't want to spend the life I've like a dud,
Your touch will make me rise like a lotus bud.

I find out how dried leaves are akin to my skin,
For your absence has left me dry from within,
The melody my heart hums screech like a violin,
How do I tell you why my patience is now thin?

-

deserted and dusted
SHOW TREMENDOUS FORTITUDE
push the prescribed threshold

for, either you wither away
OR BLOOM AS THE WILD FLOWER
in the severely parched lands

"Is it necessary to surround yourself and talk with depressed people? You can choose positivity instead."


"Happiness don't kill, depression may. And I don't want to blame myself for another death I didn't commit."
