The making of toxic memoirs asI find myself driving to you Unable to find common ground I try to recall lively talks that used to be ours but the song that plays on the radiooverwrites all our static memories awayThe further I drive The less I seek you The more that I think The closer…

The ever knowing blissfollows without me knowing Stuck inside a distraction economy Flailing democracies Corruption of the soul Failing to find peace in the destruction of harmonyI turn inwards to find wisdom that I know nothing The layers shed The skin toughens Asking ghosts in my dreams Do they know the ever knowing bliss?Apparitions appear…

Vatic statements of my demiseas if somebody guided me through their own dreamsThe terrain of the road ahead unfamiliar and distantI kept the doomed utterances close to my heart Art became an expression of the emotions unsaidPoetry took the shape of what I couldn’t understandStories were conceived keeping her in mindLiving became light with you…

dismantling universes indifferently The starry sky abyss consumes souls we’re spectators of our own demise playing Gods by our permission A lone wolf strays by the pond drinking skies out of thirst The darkness befalls on us all like a reunion of angry clouds I’m curled up in confusions The rain falling in dozes I…

A carnage that smells of life An irony that makes you feel alive I see civilisations collapsing right in front of me The wars that reversed progress I see birds that die of asphyxiation A million years wiped right in front of me I try to live in the second that demands attention A plane…

The passing of my sleep signal a doom of my dreams where I watch all that I think I needed linking it with the edge of reality Of lost paths, I could have taken to happiness Of the ways, that I could not fear less It arrives to me like a bohemian sensation Light in…

[246] Confused Clarity
![[246] Confused Clarity](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/246.jpg)
My distraction is aware of all that it lacks. It can be missing out on the various sounds of rain or it can be not holding the knowledge to appreciate architecture it falls on. I accept that there is a lot that I don’t accept. I understand that there is a lot that I don’t…

Decorate your room for my memories to echo less Your lingering perfume wanes in intensity as I get undressed Tormenting clouds call me out to watch them perform a show for us tonight A show we’re both an audience of separated by space and time The show gets over and I remember that my umbrella…

I still remember your gestures in my dream The way your self-consciousness makes you more elegant than hideous, like you think The way your eyes held the calm of the mountains and somehow I knew the reason was me That was when fear gripped me for pain knows me way too well as it circles…

A snow-capped summit that evades you. You are filled with fear of the distance, of the journey that is unknown. Sounds that you’ve never heard conjure and hijack your senses packing your ambitions behind fear. One day you wake up remembering why you dreamt at all.

There’s both glory and doom in knowing yourself. The glory is that self-awareness helps you to not make mistakes. The doom is that you still make mistakes and you are self-aware about it. You suffer. You feel like your suffering knows no bound. No one’s suffering can compare with yours. But then you listen to…
