Beauty and sadness

Beauty is just not in nature, in your eyes, in love
When I gaze into the sky, why do I just see your face?
When I dream, why do only you occupy my dreams?
Yet we stay apart, but that is beauty and sadness my love

We stay apart, in a world that does not understand how my heart bleeds for you
I pain at seeing you, for it is a reminder of my void, of my aching heart

We just stay on different planes, because I loved you
So much so that life lost all meaning and I believed in God then
I stayed pure for your memory, not wanting, not coveting
I stayed beautiful in your memory

Let that love be called a foolish love
They would never understand why I loved someone who did not care enough
To bleed from a heart that is stone cold

You knew I loved you, yet you fooled me
You fooled me into loving you that...
That my heart is just pure molten lava for a hell that you will never know

I rest in agony, knowing that you exist in a world that I cannot even occupy
Yet I am happy that we are alive in our agonies, however different they may be

I stay captive, in a love that refuses to go, it lies embedded in my soul
We now promise to be shackled in a lifetime of pain, voids, chasms of eternity

If I bear a child, he will be in your memory
Memories that he will have coursing through his pure blood
A being that will remind me forever of you, my memory written in gold

Stunned will be the world, seeing such a sight
A being marked with another’s love


But an ode cannot be anything but a paean of love
I shiver when I see you, tremble, but I stay silent
For it is a world that allows us to stay apart

Let the nightingale sing her sad song
Let the tears flow like water

Let a heart break in its cry for help to the Almighty
I awaken every day hoping that we come together

Life goes on, I grow old in your memory

I still love you, and will always do

We may never meet, in the twilight that so calls me
In your warm arms, for just a kiss


But I know I have loved you
So everything looks beautiful, sad, lonely

When I cry, my dew laden cheeks sense the misery


The skies weep for me, and so does nature


But we know, this is meant to be

For me, a world full of pain

Leaving me bereft, shattered


But I go on, in your love

Shackles....please let me be....

In a man dominated world, can I, a woman, find a place, free of shackles of fathers, brothers, husbands, pimps? I ask my sisterhood this. I request you to question yourself and the world around you and I want you to stop today and think. We require a world change and I will you, my sister, to weep for me, yet weep for the individual in you that got hidden somewhere in her role towards life that existed outside her and around her. Today, I question the very morality and the weft of the societies of the world. Tell me, what gives anyone the right to target the feminine gender as an objectified piece? Do you, my mother, my female sister, promise to stand & cover me when I am being led without any clothes in a village? Do you, O Sister, promise to castrate that man who raped me every night? I now write a sad story that might shake you, from your very complacent world. I beg you to rise with me and be one in that voice that says...ENOUGH.....I do hope that you will do this for yo

ARE SUSPENSEFUL TIMES AHEAD FOR MOVIE THEATRES?

Cinema viewing is a sport most city slickers look forward to. Going to the movies is like a mini vacation. Nandishi Shriram chats with Sanjeev Bijli, Joint Managing Director, PVR Cinemas to discuss the road ahead for multiplexes. The big screen cinematic experience is a real thrill. The treat of lying back on a plush, padded recliner, enjoying a Japanese Bento Box, served up by an attentive steward is irrepplaceable! Gone are the days of crawling into a nondescript, dark and dank smelling theater, wolfing down a greasy alu tikki burger with onion and tomato along with pumpkin ketchup…!! Only to watch Mithun doing his greasy swagger & running around trees with a buxom Ranjeeta….!! Instead, now when you walk in to watch a thriller like Andhadhun at PVR Luxe, you are assured a few hours of pulsating excitement. The credits roll in and the movie begins. The film script has very dark & grey undercurrents, with hints of the paranormal. The audience is on edge, watching Tab

Eternity

And eternal lifetimes later, So came a time When you left me And we met in another time And what culminated from this...... Was just a timeless eternal grappling of two bodies Just entwined in a sorrowful embrace For it was only then that we realized That time never did exist It was not time that held us Or the silvery ropes of life That held me to you my beloved It was a yawning chasm of an endless well Into which i got sucked And that went beyond... Just beyond Beyond what we call space I flew into a maddening darkness Embracing the folds of my own skin Into a darkness that closed me in That made me gasp for air I grappled.... For air..... For water....... Yet no one came You just left me and went away And when I reached out for a light Then it was only you that I see It was a blinding curtain of shimmering light A light into which we both got sucked A warmth where I could not leave And an endearing love that you cou
