Timeless
A touch, the smell, the warmth
the floor that never smelled better
wiggling around to remind me of something
so special…
a dinner, not the same
not the water that rippled us together
not the sound that woke us
come back those moments
the ones that felt like forever
where we can be as wrong as we can be
that the pale night doesn't mind so much
timeless...

Freedom
Freedom is not what you are
or not what you'll ever be
Its not what you can see or feel
or the tears that you ever gave away
Go on, touch that leaf
The color in it will change
Wander around, do something
Jump up, go round in circles
Smile at whats in front of you
no, seriously…
Give the best of what you are
to whats in front of you…
Freedom, do you get it now?
Break a leg, say hi!
Smile a bunch and feel the smile!
or not what you'll ever be
Its not what you can see or feel
or the tears that you ever gave away
Go on, touch that leaf
The color in it will change

Jump up, go round in circles

Give the best of what you are
to whats in front of you…
Freedom, do you get it now?
Break a leg, say hi!
Smile a bunch and feel the smile!

A bang
There's a place we go
Somewhere only we know
See through the holes
Of what we have been told
Curtains down with you to feel me
Close enough just to keep me breathing
Feel the sense of desire
Of ecstasy, of all thats higher
Come take now what you want
Care so much if you think I belong
Feelings slight the water running
Whisper sounds keeps me burning
Now I feel it all in me
A bang that wants to get me free
Somewhere only we know
See through the holes
Of what we have been told
Curtains down with you to feel me
Close enough just to keep me breathing
Feel the sense of desire
Of ecstasy, of all thats higher
Come take now what you want
Care so much if you think I belong
Feelings slight the water running
Whisper sounds keeps me burning
Now I feel it all in me
A bang that wants to get me free

Reflections on a rose petal
A week after his father died, he didn't call me
I could understand the reason why
Heard about it from another friend
It was an attack, he said
Life's fragile moments, I thought to myself
He was like me but what did he feel
Dissonant but arpeggiated at the same time?
At school, he used to talk to his pillow
We used to joke about it
Would the pillow be a gentle friend to him?
Tell him about the stars and distant life
as they danced to the quiet pale night
the smell of jasmine, the sounds of crickets
All this, I wondered, as the roses finally arrived
What he would see in them
That covered his father's body at the last rites
The dead ones, the free ones and ones
which need to breathe out
And then. The silence.
Of glistening memories,
Of trust and dreams,
Of all that had passed and what has to.

Insignificance
365, 100000, 1, 2, 18...
10, your first pocket money
1000, your first salary
100000, your first saving
24, hours it takes the earth to go around itself
29.5, days it takes the moon to go around us
365, days it takes for us to go around the sun
18, years it takes for us to realize our freedom
25, times you blink in a minute
90, the beats per minute of your heart
1, the first number you learn
2, the second
6775235741, one like you
1, second...I am insignificant
10, your first pocket money

A Liquid Dream
Soften the touch that makes the sound
Feel the water in around
Shimmering reflections in hindsight
Cruising slowly in the moonlight
A crest, a trough and then again one
It feels me slightly, feels just a little dry
Feels just a little happy, just a little sad
The view across is all you
Spanning the mirrors in all hues
An escape, a walk that'll make you free
A silence that will be serene
The blend of elements so warm and quite
Colors, the chaos all in spite
Take me in, to your deepest desires
A liquid dream and I conspire
Feel the water in around
Shimmering reflections in hindsight
Cruising slowly in the moonlight
A crest, a trough and then again one
It feels me slightly, feels just a little dry
Feels just a little happy, just a little sad
The view across is all you
Spanning the mirrors in all hues
An escape, a walk that'll make you free
A silence that will be serene
The blend of elements so warm and quite
Colors, the chaos all in spite
Take me in, to your deepest desires
A liquid dream and I conspire
