Souls of thought

Sometimes being with someone is all you want
then talking is not the point
the silence is all it takes
to understand that is within
the breath that was lost
comes back in just a flash
and it brings all those moments
that were once so sought
the moments that were full of life
the moments that brought the glow
they had to be buried deep inside
but could bring her back to life
She had kept them aside long ago
because that life couldn't be alive

She still longs for the someone
may be in another life...

Melancholy

She cried and cried but he never tried…
She thought she was helpless and could do nothing else
She complained but all in vain
She kept talking to herself ‘coz there was no one else
To console her, to cajole her, to listen to her…

He was long gone and had withdrawn
From this argument which was needless
But for him all arguments were needless…

What could she do to make him hear?
To understand the meaning so clear
So she talked to herself ‘coz there was no one else to hear...

Then she thought was it her?
Was she to deter or defer?
Was it enough what she had tried
Before she gave up the Brightside…

She wasn’t weak, not now
She couldn’t be, she’d never been

And then it came to her
It was she herself
Tears kept rolling down her cheek
But she was no longer weak
She knew what to do
And how to mend it new
‘Coz it was herself she knew
No more deterred
But contained and assured.
