Throw my Phone Away!

Like a kite
bound to the owner
with a taut string
this phone of mine
in invisible waves
binds my mind 
and my heart
like a boxed thing

the umbilical cord
in form of the signal
invisible and unseen
makes me answerable
to loved one's who care
for me,in times dismal

my mind does wander
taking me to a fable
it wants me to be
travelling, unreachable
in transit forever and
oh! so unanswerable

one wish I wish 
in my mind's eye
as I stand in front
of the wishing well 
and out of my bag
I fetch my cell
Not coins this time
I close my eyes
and wish and say
I want to be free
from everyone
all my life
everyday..
And on this trajectory
It does travel
to its final destination
until it plops,
sinks, sputters and stops!

the colour wheel

Hop in indeed 
and as this ride
picks up speed
perception blurs
borders bleed

ironically you see
the highs feels static,
everlasting- so the mind
will slowly feast and feed
on ideas irrational but freed

while the lows
bring much clarity;
and dangerous depths
that foster charity

in loops do the colors repeat
while we love and hate this palette
what comfort it is to know
that should we tire of this crazy show
the grays are always there
to shield us will we hide heal or grow.

emotional dichotomy

From the deepest pits 
resonates real laughter
which is also where
great sadness sits

it is a life lived in full colour
not in grey and blurry bits

if blessed to feel all emotions-
highs of high, pure and sure
or pain that blindfolds all wits 
hop on this ride my dear
what a roller coaster it is!
