and when i would be thinking
what is it to be at nowhere

shaken by facts,grounded by myths

i would turn to you
while you look away

i will come close,with grace..
while you still keep that pace

kill me once
kill me twice
show me all that i have become in your eyes..

turn away but please dont go

you are the one
today..and tomorrow

when my soul feels glad
and a little perplexed

take me on those long rides
those which our destinies decide

take me out of my own circles

or just stare
like you do.

timeless you have become to me
and again i clarify

blank you are,
blank is what i will always be

beautiful
sometimes even a complete blankness is worth craving for

I read it once, the last two lines gave it a whole new meaning, so read read it the second time...You must have been some dedicated sufi saint in your last life...

That was legendary.. or quite close to it

i see i see... purple deepens it is .. and of course you yourself have been away ....i write as regularly as i can, actually i have three blogs .. mortarbled is the one i frequent least.

yes Ekta of the wonderful name, once again so good of you to have dropped by.

i have a freind whose name when trasnlated becomes

´´ colourless obstacle the man of all colours and none ´´

anyway.. i am happy that you yourself are back. i am reading marquez´s short stories these days.

shakir

and the voyage to blankness in your poem is beautifully measured out. i love the perplexity that you bring in to keep the gladness in place...

i hope your absence will bring stil mroe into your poetry.
