surviving through bare necessities through your hum, through your wrath through your whistling breaths, through your ignorance overthinking. it takes a little time to realise that what i think is small like the letters i wrote to you that lie crumpled in a dustbin full of used items the resistance talks about the possibility of…

[73] Head Full of Rain
![[73] Head Full of Rain](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/eternalsun1.jpeg?w=1024)
Let me be around your loneliness to do away with a bit of mine The rules of happiness I seem to break Can you tell me the way to despair? Being with you earns me nothing but illusion A mighty empire on a fickle ground Of which you’re the empress, the queen, the shining light…

[72] The Woman You Knew
![[72] The Woman You Knew](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/aubrey.jpg?w=595)
Her existence demands a myth that writes itself. Her gaze, an invention of beauty in the eyes of who can view A haze that shies away when she arrives I lie to myself an unfamiliar dream But she’s not a dream but its shadow An eerie mirage of blues mixed with wines I can’t pronounce She…

![[71] The Dinosaur Poem.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/salvador.jpg?w=640)
Fear of the unknown unsettles the clarity I was happily settled in The unsettling turns into a grim excitement as ego burns the fear away into a galaxy unknown. I embark.

[70] A Guide For Forgetting Happiness.
To let monotony tire my heart I wake up. Instead, my existence is tired. A search for meaning compels me to pick up worry, confusion, frustration on the way. At last, the meaning arrives in the form of a lie My grey drizzly day ends with the quiet of my mind It’s funny how sleeping…

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
![[65] My Darling](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/my-darling.gif?w=500)
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…

[55] A New Legend
![[55] A New Legend](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7321.jpg?w=1024)
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?w=1024)
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…
