I lied
I cried
I did hide
Behind smiles dyed
You always decide
I abide
The dreams inside
I have freeze-dried
How do I confide
What is inside
When my feelings undyed
Are denied
As passions collide
And we divide
Do not deride
I am no bride
Something died
Though I tried
With my pride
I now reside.
β Shail Mohan (Jan 2009)
My smiles and exterior only belies
an existence of eternal disguise
I do not have the comfort of allies
except my tears and superficial sighs
I cannot continue with a life I despise
the time has come to say our goodbyes.
Shail, beautiful verse. You outdo yourself everytime.
Me: Thank you Govind. π
lovely shail… simply beautiful
Me: Thanks Monika. π
With pride you reside
We are all by your side.
Me:
The rising tide
Will be an easy ride
With you all by my side
In spite of the pride. π
Thanks Vivek

Me: Thank you Dhiren for the kind words!

*Indyeah decides to get rid of all her sappy melodramatic romances*
Me: Lol, I like your soliloquy Indy. π Don’t get rid of all your as you say, ‘sappy melodramatic romances’. Keep them alive always! Thanks and Cheers!
Hey, isn’t it really interesting that the prose and the poetry seem to spring from two totally different souls?!
Me: Hmm…. π I take that as a compliment and am loving it, thanks!
I am awed at your words and their power and appeal
of pain expressed in a neatly written verse
of feelings denied, and passions died…
Do accept some compliments from IHM’s side π
Me:
Ahh now it is your turn to spout words
Which are In the form of verse

And also for keeping me on my toes, Cheers! π
