Need some change?

A walk, down the same lane.
A walk, down the same path.
A walk, by the same trees.

The trees that bear the same yellow flowers.
The flowers that have the same life.

The days when you feel ecstatic, you look at the blooming flowers up on the branches.
The days you are low, you find the same flowers down on the path trampled by the passers by.

A moment of bloom and then crushed to death.

There are days you see them blown away with the nasty wind.
There are days you see a child gather them from them from the mud.

And then you see them travelling with the breeze to a new place where they start their life all over again.

While you continue to walk on the same path, down the same lane.

Is it the time for change?

Heartless-2

Cold blooded..emotionless..were the adjectives everyone gave her. ‘You don’t know how to express yourself’, they would say. ‘You don’t have any love in you, you really are heartless.’ Even the ‘closet’ of her friends would complain. She would have no answers or explanations. That was the way she was. That day, like any other, she was alone at her apartment. The chaos outside did not bother her. The screams of help fell on dead ears. They found her sitting on her couch, reading a book. Everything in the room was placed neatly as if she had just cleaned it. Their sight did not bother her. Her face, like a stone, did not reveal any emotion. But deep inside, her stomach churned. She calmed herself by reminding herself what everyone said, she was heartless. They could do her no harm. She smiled. As they proceeded to rip her apart, a drop of tear fell. She did have a heart. ************************************************************************ You can read the first part here

LOST

She had been walking. For how long, even she did not remember. Walking in the woods, lost on the woods, she had no sense of direction, making it hard to find her way. She seemed to be circling around. The trees started to look familiar. She was little scared. Of the dark, no, but of the unknown. The darkness in fact comforted her. It let her hide her insecurities, her fear and her apprehensions. She crossed the same tree for the third time. She knew it was the same. Suddenly she realised that even though she was lost, she was at peace. She knew then, she did not want to leave. She had found her way. Her way was to remain lost.
