The smile can't be more subtle when he clicks her and her gaze couldn't be more quiet when he looked at her.



The Quiet Gaze

No one can be better than-
what they were yesterday,
and so are You and I.
And, how could time bring 
changes, when it's
a mistake not out of mistake.

But slowly they walked 
out of the mistakes they made
when they weren't all together
and planned for the entire and
all rest time to be spent 
in their wilderness alone.

As if the mistakes won't 
repeat back in hell or heaven.
Later the stars lighted the moon and
the smile couldn't be more subtle-
when he clicked her.
And the gaze couldn't be more quiet
when he looked at her.

But a day she waited for-
all her smiles to cease and stop;
As no other gaze should
fall on her on any other day
For she loved to live and die, 
in the deep sea 
of his love and caresses.

Can something be Constant?

Can something be Constant? Nothing can be, not even you  can consistently be constant  to a person, a place or a thing. And we bring the changes  we bring the consistent changes  and embrace them  as it let's the unbound Liberty  to shift from a person to another  a place to another place  and a thing instead of another, of all  which you were so fond of at one time. © Parvathy Ramachandran

Yes, it's a fine age. She is in her 40's.

Her 40's I have known many times- my heart stopping the beat I have known many times- my heart beating much more it needs still I keep searching for, when I ever know it couldn't be found  it couldn't be found here and there it couldn't be found now and then  it couldn't be found  in no one else  than to me… Yet the search  is one fine beautiful journey that thrills and kills. I am a woman in the 40's And I ought to go through pain  and pleasure  The pleasure of postpartum, eased the pain of all tougher journeys  yet to handle  And if I couldn't, who can  and no woman can The pain can't just kill it thrills instead, as if you race a car  and run a machine  the machine only a woman  can handle in all thrill and she deals with the  throb of a heart  and listens to the cries of  postpartum, where she  discovers a new mother a new woman  a phenomenal new woman  and the phenomenally old...

I still retain my eight letter name. I know a day when You and I got to leave I have to finely decorate the space in all extravaganza.

My Eight Letter Name Clement was his name,  till sometime back. But now he is known as Ment! Who, why, when or whom- was it shortened? Nothing easy would leave it's mark, And I assume Ment too wouldn't. The sweet notes we exchanged,  never persuaded him for that. For I always loved my Clement, Exactly the way he was. And I never wanted him to alter himself even though fate accepeted him as Ment. But, soon I realized he too wanted to live  in a world that was easy, much easy. But I couldn't dare to find out the reasons Why easiness struck him too? Still I found the world turning yellow  Slowly, slowly and my desires died along. And many including my Clement, shortened their names. But I retained my eight letter name,  To be finely engraved on my grave  A day when you and I leave. Yet a day you and I should. © Parvathy Ramachandran
