On the rooftop.......

Shimmering Shanghai lights

The dazzling fireworks in the sky

The glitterati of the diamond city

The folks passing by

I search for brightness

In this heavenly lit-sky

For the sky is in my line of sight

My search for the twinkling star

Ends hundreds of feet below

Yet high.....

The faded star amongst the pitch blackness

Calls me heart to heart

I wish you had more brightness

down there

However faded though I seem to you

My faintness' sparkle is more than

that of your eyes

I wish you had more love

And had the blindness that sees beyond the

lucid eyes...

Etcetra....

Running away from reality in the arms of solace

Raised a toast on a cloud of emoti(c)ons

Could relive that moment again, what luck...

Trying to text you the range of feelings I went through,

What went wrong...........

Fumbled through those buttons and fingers

Just too short of words....

The heart brimming, yet the mind completely blank

O freak....what a waste.....

Some things are best left in a sphagetti-bundle,

In a Pandora's box with the key thrown offshore

never to be opened,

Like a li'l black window, where nobody can reach the heart's depth

Like a dying bud whose petals would never see light

Coz some things are best left unspoken

And just felt in the eyes

And I simply write....

Gud nite. Tc :).
