![[68] We All Suffer From Hope](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/eternal-sunshine-of-the-spotless-mind.jpg)
We all suffer from hope. A hope for a universal desire to be loved. To be loved for who we are is what we look for in a relation, be it friendship or romantic. But no one can love you for all that you are. So you build up a facade of who they want…

She lies beside me in a wakeful slumber Gulping down the dose of not speaking secrets she hides To watch her eyes, I am reminded of the colours of the space The lesson they provide: to not go beyond what you’ve been given The reason why she tells me not to look in her eyes.…

[65] My Darling

Terrorise me through your love, my darling Force your way into my mind Break what I’ve made until now because you call for a masterpiece made of and for you entirely. Be violent in your approach, my darling because I exist for a passion that numbs the world that we live in, to enter the…

[60] Musings from a dark silent box.
![[60] Musings from a dark silent box.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/image_01-1.jpg)
I In a dark silent box, I’m breathless A revolt broods like lava Like a calm before the storm She moves inside the box and gives me music. II I live somewhere in between your remembrance and denial. You live somewhere in between my fragrance and a lie. We speak through shapes of clouds, the…

[55] A New Legend
![[55] A New Legend](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7321.jpg)
I drag my misery with me To the light clouds shaped mountains Hoping they’ll lift the weight Put me at halt, a work against gravity Offer a refuge to my restlessness A home to my anxiety And give me a pass to leave them there And tell me not to be a snowball Collecting panic…

[54] Poetry By My Nightmares
![[54] Poetry By My Nightmares](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_6276.jpg)
Nights terrify as the rain drowns my scream The wind that held answers is distracted to amuse paper boats and drive it to sink with me. A numb sleep lets you meditate and makes you dream of colours. Avoiding red, you accept the blues A lighthouse like a morse code, wrecks you. A…

[53] God’s Lonely Man
![[53] God’s Lonely Man](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/disquiet.jpg)
I don’t think anyone cares I think I am the problem I think I think too much I am accepting this pain Acceptance has been the only thing has given me some respite From the constant thundering of my heart and my brain to quiet Acceptance of the things I can’t control That includes people’s reactions…

[51] A Personal Story
![[51] A Personal Story](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/personal-story.jpeg)
There is a sensation that I wish does not come to you. You are up, the sunlight wakes you. What is the beginning of the day feels like an end of you, to you. You try to shake these lifeless thoughts but in a blink, they have rusted and you can no longer repair them.…

![[50] Knock Knock Who’s There?](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/cat_004_knockknock.jpg)
I am alive, I know it The rigorous thumping of my door reminds me The lively riot inside me A live show it stages inside me The rigorous thumping of my heart reminds me It reaches a crescendo where my brain vibrates Convulsions warn me of the beast inside me I pop a pill and…

A picture so grey, on broken paper it remains it conjures up a time that held importance but only in the back of my mind time turned its wheels and let it drown away let it lay on the tip of the iceberg now all I can see is a blinking light in my mind, still…

A senseless grapevine curls down our neck in between whispers we stand, a hundred of them faceless, they surround with twisted versions of a misheard story a misheard name a conniving mind a shadow of a dame I stand with her, clueless, we are They build memories that we are not aware of We meet for…

[40] #NaPoWriMo [12/30] { Madness Bewitches Me }
The consumption of her crumbling madness amuses me, till the sighting of a shooting star calms my roaring laughter. She shifts. My world revolves on an axis that does not coincide with her atlas or her madness made of moulds of myopia She speaks in three, a plan to include thee Repentance mixed with madness or despondency A…

…in between her gaze and her stare I fell in love Just inside her lovely mind I fell in love A galaxy in her mind that expands, though To my every mistake she fumes, though Her frightened face became her freckled face Her freckled face became her frightened face To distinguish between her gaze and…

[38] #NaPoWriMo [9/30] {Awaken My love}
The prompt for today was to write a nine-line poem. I choose to write on the conflicting battle to be in dreams and to face reality. —— His majesty in a slumber of dreams All he does here is swing like a child only to fall into an earthquake of defeat Reality it seems is…
