Keep in touch...

A familiar face
A familiar line
A familiar wrinkle
A little entwined
A little memory
A little thought
A little sigh
Of a familiar sight
How you miss
The ones you love
Not forgotten
Just out of sight
Yet there is love
In every sigh
Home away from home
You might be
Love away from love
You never could be
Keep in touch
Keep in sight
So there are
No regrets, no sighs.

Somebody


As tears drip down those lonely eyes,
I wish I had somebody by my side,
Somebody to console and make my day,
Be there for me when life is at bay.

Those seamless days, worlds apart,
I wish I had somebody in my heart
Who could be my sole companion,
A friend in those days, so horrid and dark.

Oh! How my heart aches for a companion like that,
Who comes to me, when luck is scarce,
With a blissful smile so beautiful and sublime,
That it makes you feel like a weightless kite.

With tender words that make you forget,
All your troubles in a swish of a wand.
Like magic all over your face,
That sprinkles down in its own sweet ways.

What wouldn’t you give for a companion like that,
Who can take you above the skies,
With a gentle smile and a tender face,
That somebody who might come some day.

There are no such things as ghosts


There are no such things as ghosts, he always use to say,
He remained as mulish as ever, even after our debate.
Never removed from his purpose, he decided to go to Mrighway,
Which was the most haunted place in London, for that is what they say.

He did not yield to our entreats, and remained a fathead as ever.
The day drew to a close, and night resided on the scene,
The winds screamed and the trees danced,
And the rain, Oh! It was terrible.

In he went through the door, to show his face to the darkness,
He had to reach the window above, which looked out through the attic.
He felt himself tremble, Like he had done never before.
Slowly he reconsidered tracing his steps back, Boom! What was that he heard?

A peal of thunder like he had never heard before?
He trembled and shook and was wet from head to toe,
Someone touched him on the shoulder,
Boo!! I am a ghost!

He seemed to be frozen for an instant, then he ran out like the wind.
Out of that house and back in his.
Now he never says, what he used to say before,
There are no such things as ghosts..!!
