Rain still falls
September 25th, 2008 | by Vijayaraghav |
Rain still falls
The rain still falls
in subtle rythm
Looking through the glass window
I always wonder
how each and every moment
becomes memorable
with serene beauty
Do you remember the beauty
of those nights
quivering with twinkling stars?
One of those irredeemable nights
a flowered door slid open
in front of us
where love has crowned us
Vivid with love
we were united and
eager to live together
Ages passed!
Sorrows bloated our minds
How soon we fell part
to surrender the fate
I still carry your love
under the burden
of my solitude
In dreams
it touches my soul
In thoughts
it emerges as imagination
I always wanted
to return to the times
where we embraced eternity
and realised that
you are the rarest soul
Incredibly
the sea still remains blue
and unchanged
The sky always looks down
through the eyes of stars
and the rain still falls
with subtle rythm

Then we parted
And the parting
Was imparted
To a world that departed
Little bothered as it bothered ’bout us,
Little did we know ourselves apart
Alas, we weren’t aware
That we were a part
Of one soul atlast!

Your conviction and lucidity in the expression is your forte . I love it. “I still carry your love
under the burden
of my solitude” these lines are wonderfully juxtaposed. There is integrity in the theme and no loose ends. thanks for sharing such a piece.

Nostalgic journey …down the memory lane. From starting lives as newly weds with hope shining bright …….till date. One does get busy with other things as life carries on, some moments unconciously merge into the background. But it is never too late to pick up the threads and start again
!! Some things never seem to change, as life goes on almost never following the same path. grt grt poem Vijay, pure pleasure to read and absorb. tc.smile.

“I always wanted
to return to the times
where we embraced eternity
and realised that
you are the rarest soul”
This thought is always helping us to move forward but to keep the past alive and the dream that we have sown and the pain we have within us to be our torch bearer of past to enlighten our future….
loved the poem.,,,

Beautiful nice touching poem…capable to stir the souls of soul mate.

True, it wd be difficult to forgive. I too echo similar thoughts.
The concept of marriage has undergone a change, especially in urban areas. The younger generation is impatient and does not really want to compromise. Divorces are happening over trivial issues. Living in is getting quite common. The western culture is here to stay. Feel it is the woman who is at a disadvantage in such relationships in our male dominated society. Thanx for ur words.
