Timeless Affair

by Satish Verma   Sep 13, 2015


Joining the names,
a nameless melancholia crosses a borderland,
between dreams & reality.
The stone face, a mask,
some nothingness transcends
the unhearing mind.
Tell me how much
you know about yourself?

Moon shaped pleasures
did not stir me, not ever.
The hours of a dark day moved
in pink fog, my heart
was bruised in a fall.
My infinite failures
saw the inversed truth.

Yellow was the rage, fire.
A perpetual leap from emptiness.
The flames were movements,
towards void.
The thoughts were circling over the flames.
Green windows open, shut, open.
My timeless affair with my self starts.

    I like this. I sense the existiential, "void/no-mind" inspiration behind it. Maybe it is because of this I find it hard to understand the flow or meaning.
    The words themselves are abstract and painting. The colour of this poem is purple. (for some reason or another :)
