Sound of solitude

I couldn't care less,
about what you said.
I couldn't think less,
about the days we spent.
I couldn't cry less,
about everything I miss.
Where are you?
My one, forever friend.

I couldn't sleep well,
with your dreams filled.
I couldn't speak well,
when you are not at the other end.
I couldn't smile well,
as you were my single mirror.
Where are you?
My one, forever friend.

What do I tell my heart,
that beats so hard?
What do I tell my eyes,
that keeps searching for your sight?
What do I tell my feet,
that always move towards your side?
Where are you?
My one, forever friend.

Forever, I had thought.
False!, its all gone.
Forever, as I felt,
Alas! where do I now get,
Forever a friend,
One, like you to tend.

Where are you?
My one, forever friend.

Forever in memory.
Yes! there you will be.
Forever with that bewitching smile,
Shining high above mine.

In deep memory,
of every dear one lost,
Divya Venkatesan

Saptarang  🌲 Prologue 🌲 Kushali Forest 🌲 Vasuki - The Calf 🌲 Frantic Seizure and Awakening 🌲 Abhisha - The Proud Warrior 🌲 Chaos at Saptarang 🌲 Lowland Row 🌲 Strength or Strategy Prologue  I love Bangalore and I very much love travelling in Bangalore because it has given me so much content to write, that I have developed a cult following as a content writer!  There have been numerous posts that I have done over the past two years mainly over the WhatsApp status space. Chic!; Creative and Crisp. Imaginations run wild but content blocked to less than 100 words. Challenge accepted and well rewarded too.  In an effort to quickly share thoughts and develop “that” cult following what has changed is the act of real writing.  This is age of Instagram and Twitter and status messages. Time is essence. Capturing the attention of reader for mere seconds to make a lasting impact. There is no patience for long sentences... stories… Facebook lost its face… and ...

Fragrance - The invisible connect

Tring Tring. Tring Tring. A slim, tall girl, all of 24 years, trudged her way from the bed to her phone on the other side of her hostel room. The typical room with a single cot of bed, a tiny study table stacked with books of sizes that even a giant can’t get a proper grip off and a pile of clothes lying haywire had been her home past 2 months. “Hello!” Her voice was meek and tired. “Yes Rashmi. I’m better now. It’s just a bit of dehydration. I will be back to hospital tomorrow." “I really hope, I didn’t miss anything big in the anatomy class today”, she exclaimed. There was a pause in the conversation as her friend animatedly mentioned about the day’s proceeding at their House surgeon course. As Rashmi, enquired further, the girl was long lost looking at the bright blue skies and the blazing sun beneath the window. With sudden reverie she was back to the conversation.  “Oh Yes! I will remember to drink water. Thank you, Rashmi. See you tomorrow." *Sara. ...

I want to keep you happy!

Wherever I go, It’s about you. Whatever I do, I can’t forget you. However hard I try, It feels above my might. What did you do to me? I want to keep you happy! Invested deeply in you, Where life beyond looks like mere dew, Sucking me hard, to disappear, When my desire isn’t your, Normal! I’m here to please, Every moment I breathe, For everything about me, Acts only for Thee! What did you do to me? I want to keep you happy! Smile or cry, Live or die, Belief or fate, Love or hate, It’s all about how you see! Alas! I can’t do anything free! What did you do to me? I want to keep you happy! From age of four, to many more, All I care, Is how I fare! Oh my Society, I’m so caught in your insanity What did you do to me? For all I do is to make you happy! - Divya Venkatesan
