Stop and stare

Have you ever had a moment with someone?

When words become meaningless.

Gestures insignificant.

All you have from the other person is ‘one’ look.

And in that one look

Heaps of history is unfolded.

Love expressed.

Forgiveness given.

Regret displayed.

Wounds healed.

I’m a firm believer of ‘the moment’.

Words always defy.

Gestures can be mimicked.

But you can never fake that life-defining moment.

Maybe the moment is nothing but a deluded prophecy

Maybe the moment is mere fantasy.

Just a way to satisfy the id.

………………………..

I’ve been getting the feeling
that some of my moments never existed.

And sometimes
I want to run up to some people and scream “YOU HAD A MOMENT WITH ME!!!! Or was it all in my head?”

But that’s the funny part.

You have nothing to show for it.

Nothing to prove it by.

And so it’ll remain

Nothing but a fleeting moment.

Blue Blue Sky

I think there’s a time when you realize you are ordinary.

When you fall on your face from your rooftop and realize your not superman.

When you look in the mirror and see those wrinkles.

When your art is nothing but random scrawling on a canvas.

When your writing fails to move you.

When your jokes become stale

When conversation runs dry.

When you realize you’re nothing but part of an endless blue blue sky.

When greatness is galaxies away.

When you realize you are

Ordinary!
