Ramblings of a disconnected mind...

The world spun off its axis, and still we waited.
The night grew light, not a sound did we make.
The storm battered the walls, fury unabated.
The heavens tore asunder, no vision moved us.
We stood in the eye of a maelstrom, the calm before the storm. We walked the void, marveling its emptiness.
A thousand suns seared our flesh, and still we did not care.
We walked among the fires and marvelled at the flames.
We played with the devils and sang with the angels never acknowledging the taint.

Till next time, Our thought for the day,


Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.

Remembrance



If I were to disappear one day,

Would you remember me?

Or would I be lost in procession of other thoughts,

Pushed out from the mind if not in sight?

Would you remember me,

If I disappeared into the night?

Lost in the darkness,

Never found in the light?

Would you remember the way I looked at u?

Would you remember the way my skin felt on yours?

Or the way my smile lit up your day?

Would you remember the words spoken?

Or the endless dinners enjoyed and attended?

Would remember the way your hand felt in mine?

Or the kisses shared through the night?

Would you remember the way your head nestled on my shoulder?

Or the way we planned a life together?

Would you reminisce about me to your friends?

Would you remember me if I were to disappear one day…


Till next time, Our thought for the day,

In the end we will not remember the insults of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
