…’like tears in the rain…’

...It rained and I cried...I cried and he couldn’t make out why...

For some reason my tears were just water to him…plain water,

Couldn’t he understand or did he not want to? Was it too complicated?

Hard to hear his heart even? I thought I was his heart…

But it’s not best of both worlds that one gets…

This is what life is all about, but is it that tough to comprehend?

Love’s even tougher, easy to get in and hard to live it

Beautiful feeling; hurts a lot…aims at the heart,

If only he would have turned around…once, just for once…

Glanced at me, my eyes would have revealed,

The tears would have spoken, opened up their heart,

Uttered their woe, till they would fall apart,

Anxiously I follow him, running...huffing and puffing,

Futile chase…he disappeared like smoke in the wind…

…why was he in such a hurry?

Only if I knew it all started to end,

Only if I knew he would pretend…

I would not have stood there...all alone…sobbing,

For something pinched my heart…

Tears kept flowing…mere drops of water full of pain…

…’like tears in the rain…’

Jack…Don’t go, please don’t… I barely squeak,

For my heart was choked and my throat sore,

Closed my eyes, rain drops caressing my cheeks,

Memories passed by...a sneak peek,

The never ending romance and the unsaid words,

The playful twinkling eyes and the lingering fragrance,

But why do I think of all the love now?

They say bygones are bygones…

Been 7 awful months, killing me day in day out,

Tears still cup my face…but all in vain,

…’like tears in the rain…’

Threadbare to a rare wear

Pink, Purple, Red and Blue,
Found in all colours and hue,
Look around and you'll find the best,
She exclaims, Hey! this suits me, leave the rest,
With threads swinging, he looks around and says.
Whoa ! Am I the one she's picked?
You were my pals! In my arse you just kicked!
You let go off me cause you all want to be saved,
Hold! Hold! For I had a life already framed...
...by designer dreams and frills,
Her sudden excitement would certainly kill,
My fibre, my grace, my glaze,
Passionate life will now just be a maze,
I'll lose my throne and lose my sheen,
Altered to someone's body-cuts, Am undergoing the machines,
Didn't want to succumb, but all in vain,
Snip-Snap, Chip-Chop, God! this really pains,
I tried to gloss over my appearance, Oh! what a shame,
She has changed my looks, will she even rename?
Completely revamped, I even have a new shade,
Guess am ready, to her perfection I've been made,
Wait! Why is she rolling her eyes at me?
Spoke too soon, the fibre again is full of glee,
Loath machine work, more snips, more chops,
Painfully my ass does hip-hop!
She beams with delight as she hugs me tight,
This is destiny, look at my plight,
Draping me around, she walks the aisle,
Feeling confident, her face wearing a wide smile,
Is it cause of me? I should be a fool not to realise,
Threads making a 'U', I feel the figure cuts,
Soft and serene is the skin, for her body I hug,
Shouldn't be sad, the curves are awesome,
Holding her tight and firm, especially her bosoms,
Yum-Yum and my eyes once again twinkle,
For no rhyme or reason, I was being fickle,
Happy Iam, for now am the craze,
Even more delighted to hug the sexy babe!
