Sail of Life

Soothing lunar light-
Falling on your dewy skin.
Gazing starry eyed at
The infinite horizon;
Attempting to
Grasp every single detail.
Living in the moment
Breathing in crisp air
Letting yourself
Go with the flow.
Setting sail of life
In the direction
Of the wind.
Surrendering oneself
To the energy within & around.

#7 From my Diary: Within or Without

It’s within us
or without us.
We try to stay within the lines
drawn by our fears,
withdrawn by our mind!
We ought to let the colors bleed-
of our soul
outside the lines,
that has less to do with
the mind,
while everything to do with our heart.
Open up dear friend
as world out there
is not welcoming,
but you can be
the one that opens the world
for another.

Solitary Butterfly

Google image

A solitary lavender butterfly
Hovering over vibrant orange marigold
Purple and white periwinkle
In search of nectar
That will set it free
From clasps of hunger and fatigue
Tiny lavender butterfly
Hovering against the wind
Among others like her own
Yet setting her apart from the rest
As she sits and hovers
In the wilderness sans fear
A solitary carefree butterfly
We all can be
In this wild wild world
Fearless and unbound.

P.S: I’m writing on this platform after a very long gap and I would like to post more often and get connected with my readers and fellow bloggers out here at wordpress. I don’t know why I stopped writing, I’ve written few pieces which I haven’t shared over here. I would love to come back here and be a part of this beautiful community that holds an important place in my life. Well, I hope I’ll be posting more often and reading posts too over here at WordPress. Till then. Tata 🙋‍♀️😊🌻🌻🌹🌹

The grip that felt like home

That very feeling of warmth-

had thawed away

like the wax burning

off a candle,

slowly consuming it all

leaving no trace of its existence.

~Shambhavi

You’re home to me

I have muttered those words
to someone;
Well, I never heard it back.
I guess we all traverse the roads
that are not connected to
the path of our destiny.
Living in the present
I guess we all try to forget
the words we have uttered,
the words that we have silenced
and the word that are yet to be said!
That’s life I suppose-
Between the world of words and that of reality.
It’s like, we never see it coming
what’s best for us, which eventually
is given to us.
We need to have some faith, as
there’s the best of everything out there-
Just for us.

Drowning in Nostalgia

Those days when I was home,

With my people

Will continue to drench me-

In nostalgia & the

Beautiful memories will be

Etched on my heart forever.

~Shambhavi

Rowing away solitary

I’m floating in stagnant waters
You are no where to be seen.
We started our journey
Together on a boat
We drowned in bliss of melodies
We enjoyed together
We rowed away;
Happy as people for life
But here I’m-
Floating in the stagnant water
Where your trace is long gone!
You’re aboard another boat
With someone who you adore.
It’s sad you don’t realize what we were
It’s sad that I do
I guess letting go is all I have
With all the strength I have
I’m letting you go.
Good bye dear friend
I’ll just remember the good times we shared
In the past, that made us smile
From eye to eye.
I shall continue to row solitary,
as the ripples fill in
life- into the stagnant water
Of life, that had dulled-
the light in me.

STARRY SKIES

Laying on a bed of sand,

Ever-changing patterns

Of the crystals that guard-

My body, my soul.

Every time I move,

I yearn to leave an impression

On the world that I call my own.

My shadow has departed

Enabling me to revere

Every single memory

Uncloaked and bare.

I still lay amidst the grains of gold

Cautiously eyeing the

Glistening moon;

My lamenting heart

Attempting to contemplate the-

Synchronicity of my imprudence

And tribulation.

The gurgle and lashing

Of the waves

Echoing in my ears,

Leaving no stone un-turned

To mask the thudding of my

Reckless memories that are rushing

In my mind that remains clogged

And misted and numb.

The wind blowing kisses

To my soul that lay bare

Exposed and vulnerable-

To the audacity of fellow humans

Dancing in my memories

To a tune of their own.

The sky is studded

With resplendent stars

Simulating the flicker of hope

That illuminates my soul

Every now and then.

And here I am

On a bed of sand

Fancying for this

Comforting night

To never end.

Finite compositions

I’m gone
And so are you.
Days
months &
years since.
Was it that finite?!

#2 From My Diary: 06/08/17

06/08/17, Sunday

Is it just me or my head feels heavy for my neck.

This is the feeling I am constantly facing almost everyday. My neck and shoulder issues haven’t seen a perfect sunshine in last two years, oh is it just two?! Haha.

I can’t remember myself say that, “Yay, today I’m actually pain free and can live life normally.” I wonder when I’ll heal completely, physically as well as mentally.

Have a great weekend guys.

Signing off for now.

Best wishes,

Shambhavi

P.S: Happy Friendship Day to all my fellow bloggers.😊😊😍😍🌻🌻🎉🎉
