Quivering Strings


A melody begins as I ponder over you,
deliciously strumming through my soul.
I gather sweet dreams, now turned true
Engulfed in your arms, makes me feel whole
Love soars within me like a violin's note.
Rhyme and reason fail to see they've begun.
As riveting is your aura, I feel unnerved
Helplessly drawn to you like Icarus to the sun.
Joy with you is like an unspoken word
and loving you is a symphony at its peak.
Where heartbeats flutter, like quivering strings.

I solemnly swear!

After a sabbatical of few months, (which was due to important reasons involving alien abductions and achieving world peace) I solemnly swear that from now on, I shall write more. Yes folks, apologies to the ones who loathe my writing, you can simply click on the red cross button on the top right side of your system and live happily.

Over the few months a lot has changed (well other than me failing to achieve world peace) but changes within me. A lot more platforms have come up where I can express myself, good friends whom I treat as diaries, who listen to my constant chatter, my whims and put up with it. An amazing pen pal from a land far away who's penmanship blows my literary hungry mind. My hands were full dealing with myriads of situations and sometimes I found myself juggling with a little more than I can take (I can't juggle in reality, I'm dyslexic when it comes to doing tasks that require hand-eye co-ordination.. sigh)

Although, I had enough emotional outlets to share whatever nonsensical bit my brain could conjure. I still found myself making ahem, lengthy conversations with my own brain (they were oddly pretty humorous too!) I wondered, what was missing, it all boiled down to this. I missed writing! Making up weird scenarios, exaggerating mundane situations, being quirky about my own behavior. So many things that I can only express in solitude and then.. well, share it to the world. (I've got nothing to lose anyways)

So here it is, a small word I now give to myself and my literature craving mind, that I will pour my feelings, my quirkiness into my writings. Be it on any platform.. cause lets face it, the things I have been coming up with, of-late.. writing in solitude might be the only option left for me. Kudos to words!
