Maples and Gulmohars



Everytime the maples bloom 
there in spring,
I'm falling in love,
strange is this,
but when your guitar strings
whisper in this season 
around the corner
I get winds of your touch
and hear the melodies of your body.
Our love was locked under the Seine,
Don't tell me you didn't sing that
day and I was drunk,
remember how you held my hands,
and we kissed.
Back home, we watched how
the maples turned red,
and slept under the stars,
to name the shooting star.
You wished and I wished to make your wish come true.
And here when gulmohars bloom 
I'm falling in love, again.
Everything's changed
but I've been looking for you,
I can feel you dancing with me,
being in your arms.
Stay with me until I fall asleep,
nothing's going to hurt you,
as long as gulmohars 
Surround us,
Let us light a cigar and 
dance under the sky.
I will kiss you right
on your scars,
healing you forever,
bringing you back,
seasons don't matter
without you,
whether it's  maples or gulmohars.
so let me do it,
I'm the shooting star 
that you can feel and dance with.
And there i can see the 
road spread with fallen maples and gulmohars,
beckoning you to join them.

I Let Myself Sink Into You

  I let myself sink into you,  Taking deep dips,  Not letting myself float.  You kept the rhythm of ocean Calm and said the waves To come another day.  I got lost in the tranquility of your arms,  Seeking an abode for eternity,  Reaching out in bliss.  Maybe If I could live here forever,  I would dance at a different pace,  guided by the warmth of your heart. I see no lines seperating us,  Shutting down the little fragments of overthinking,  I place you close to my bosom,  Never to let you go.  Making all the falsities disappear,  I'm riveted by the hold of your hands,  the sheer joy on your face  At the movement of my eyelashes,  Making me fall all over again.  You asked me if you could join in my agony,  If you could make me think of  Things of joy, Checking my pulse and it's  dramas,  You dived deep into me,  Untangling the mysterious cords,  that encircled me....

Child is the Father of the Man

Childhood is a phase where we feel everything deeply. Every traumatic, as well as happy incidents, get imprinted in us during this stage that the memories of those determine our further life. Rajesh Pillai's Mili is such a character who was deeply affected by her mother's illness & her death. Mili is a representative of many children whose childhood gets lost in the struggle to cope with the indigestive-syllabuses & who are forced to believe that a failure in it would determine what they are. The slow and beautiful transformation of Mili from an introverted, depressed girl to an independent inspiring person is touching. With the help of a handful number of right people who are ready to go extra miles for her, Mili steps out of her comfort zone by breaking her shell of insecurities which is as old as her. Mili makes sure that the children that she teaches are not judged by their inabilities or marks like she was but their small skills that no one actually notices. She al...

THE SILENT CRY

Darkness ...at  its  zenith Silence.. at  the sound 's lowest decibel.. I wrapped  myself up into the blanket tears rolled down my cheeks.. I cried.. I cried in the dark silence silently.. No voice of my cry.. I bite my hands.. I cried silent loudly.. I cried for the dreams unfulfilled I cried thinking of my unpredicted future.. I cried thinking of my unknown death.. I cried thinking of my  inabilities I cried  thinking of  the gifts  not given to me I cried  thinking of my people.. And I complained  God Almighty for the miseries given to me.. ... I   wiped  off my tears.. I smiled. Perfect... Nothing is better than this silent loud cry..!! A.C
