Your Face Has Started to Fade Away


 

Your face has started to fade away

It's now at some place that makes me blind, 

I don't understand how this happens, 

Were you so insignificant to me? 

Or have you changed a lot from the past? 

But I remember every single thing you said, 

Every punctuation and apostrophe

Every road and bus we took. 

I wonder why your face is fading, 

When I remember how we cycled through the fields in the summer, 

How you read me Neruda, 

battling with the breeze that turned the pages constantly. 

How can your face fade away,

When I remember the sensuality I felt every time your hands rubbed against my skin, 

The times we spent under fluorescent lights of your van. 

Your face has started to fade away, 

Even when I don't forget how time 

Flew when we spent weeks

Exploring the strange roads in the Countryside. 

How is this possible? 

When I have a clear picture of 

your little ecstasies 

surrounding the odd things, 

The way you arranged home with 

white curtains and yellow flowers, 

The trivial things that altered your moods. 

How can your face fade away, 

When I can remember everything else? 

Maybe I'm drinking a lot, 

Maybe I'm consumed by my loneliness, 

Or maybe I'm just old, 

Or maybe, maybe you are no longer the one in my memories.

General Madness

  I see General Madness cracking open, He oozes out as a pulp from a laceration, He flows down the streets to places and people unknown. He would crawl up new landings  and conquers them like he did to mine years ago. Some years back, he invaded my city of Head, Which was on the verge of destruction by the civil war, Between the groups of experiences and sorrows. When General Madness came, the two creepy groups united, made him their leader. For years I carried a nuclear explosion in my head. He was indifferent to the curves of my cursive letters, And produced scribbles of a toddler, sending out misinformation. He conducted minor explosions,  assuring the solidarity of other inmates of my Land. But most times, Capt. Heart from the left quarters was a rebel, He filed verbal and written complaints in vain. He persuaded the Lady Mouth  to utter things unknown and uncouth. She seemed an elegant lady outside, with a smile, she was confident of, Her son was Sir Gland who r...

Diary!

Now this has become my Diary!  Even if I fail to become famous person at the time of my death..this may definitely define me..my words are my thoughts..and my thoughts represents Me !! Sometimes even if we are not able attain our dreams and desires..God somehow makes us happy. Or gives us another way to be happy with his Midas Touch !!! He is a great magician who enchants us with his magic. So i have decided to face life as it comes..because sometimes the best solution is just let it go !! A.C

No Worries!

I really wonder why people around me worries a lot. They stress on some matters as if it some great disaster is about to come.. We have this sole life and spending this whole life vexed on trivial things means wasting our valuable moments.Instead of that why can't people cherish their memories ? At least it can create a smile on their faces. Spread smiles and relax your cheek muscles. Travel lonely and accompany no one. Purchase and feel everything. Make this your motto and live a better life. You can die a better man. A.C
