The Lone Teardrop

Sometimes some touching words leave you with some happy and sad tears, so perfectly acquainted with your life that you left numb, how someone else felt exactly what you feel.
1 Jan 2009 we started to a path unknown and new, we started our journey and we started to walk together and decide to continue on this forever and always. Today's 31 Dec 2010, its been 2 years we had passed ups and downs, and still passing some li'l twist and turn in the drive of our life. Whilst continuing this journey, today morning I told him about my Grandpa and his last couple of days. And today on our 2nd Anniversary the beautiful and much precious gift he has gifted me. He gift me with a poem, a poem to my Grandpa, a poem that something I wanted to create but the words never whispered back. I was practically AWWed! By the words and feeling as if they are mine even if not being mine.
So first time am posting something not created by me or under the name of Outlines of Shades but brought to its existence, only and only by Sir Magnum with his honest emotion.

A Li'l Salute to my Grandpa
















Staring back at the blank plastered ceiling
waiting for, listening eagerly for whispers
of my last breath escaping
floating above all dear ones,
through the hospital roof
and into the eternal sunshine.
"Hold on just another day,
for your granddaughter's graduating today"
These lone whispered words
in the voice I so loved
of my soulmate, of my wife
wiping the long tear streaks
on her age-impressed cheeks
reverberated through my worldly demise.
I remember her still fresh life
memories of her sweet, buxom smile,
and her dear daughter, the star of our lives
still learning to navigate through life.
Ah! how quickly does time pass away
why it was just yesterday
when she paddled over to me on all fours
beaming with the brightest of smiles
prodding with her tiny little stubs
blabbering on in her eternal rhymes.
Remembering again, my life that has been
recapturing inside, the sounds and the sights
the moments and memories that I have acquired
I wish to carry along with me to the other side.
I look at them all once more through my hazy eyes
as a single lone tear slides silently but gently,
traversing its short life to the ear from the eye.


P.S : Its really lucky to have someone in life who understands every strand of emotion I feel. I wish today that I have it forever.

A Way To INCEPTION












If you love some one so much and have spent happily a lifetime with that person then if you get a chance to spend the another lifetime again, to grow old together, to live a new life, You choose not to.
Jus' watch "Inception", not needed to say anything about the movie as it speaks for itself and if it ain't the imdb does. But the point it proves is that how a simple small harmless idea can bring a huge change in someone for better or for worse. We continually try to change things around us, God wonders when we really did try to change ourselves, when was the last time we stood in front of mirror not putting a makeup over our arrearage rather facing our own inside the very core where there is only survival of darkness and chilling cold. Where no one, no matter how close they may be is allowed, other than you yourself, that inner core that can be judged, protected and shared only by us, but only after we face it.
Sometimes we accept changes, for the sake of situation, what world demands. Some other times, for the sake of someone. But its only you to judge if that change is what you really are or jus a mask to pretend to put on a look-good face.
Whatever the reason is to change, even if you pretend, there is a change that exists, and for that very moment and every flow for every new experience and a new idea there is
something of a beginning, a start called an "Inception".

Best wishes
Cleora

P.S : If you still waitin' to watch the movie... then definitely watch it soon, but when you are in mood to handle heavy stuff. 'Coz this movie will literally sweep you off your feet.

And Leonardo... Well Done! if you read my blog ;)

I Am Nobody

- by Outlines of Shades


Its nobody
who touches my heart,
Its nobody
who feels my part,
Its nobody
who wipes my tears,
Its nobody
who holds me in fear,
Its nobody
from the start,
Its nobody
to mend my broken heart.

Several tears
I weep in darkness
in front of a silent mirror
choking in silence.

Its me
sitting alone now,
Its me
somewhere somehow,
Its me
lost in the darkness,
Its me
clawing in the recess,
Its me
falling apart,
Its me
dying of a broken heart.

Look Through The Darkness
















Darkness, its one simple word that symbolizes many things all at the same time. Darkness can be meant as in grave, a lost faith, suffering of pain. But is it associated only with the negativity in life? Let me share with you some new shades out of darkness.

When I close my eyes
and sleep
I dream though
the darkness I see.
When I remember my past
the happiness and sorrow
already cast,
I look though the darkness
turn the pages
wrote in black.
The hope lost
walkin through a tunnel
if lighted all place
how can I find a way out?
I wish for a darkness
all around
to see a li'l ray of light
to find a hope beside
a way I can find.
Darkness can be meant
as in grave,
a lost faith
and suffering pain,
a darkness is ignorance
but reason to question
an answer to face.
Darkness can be a strength
an unconditional belief
to sustain,
Darkness is absolute faith
in a dark room to be safe.
Dark can be grave
a funeral to take
but there's
other side of darkness
the darkness over which
our universe is held.

P.S : There's no pleasure to have colors and light in life always, without the darkness sometime shading our path.
