We are mind readers. Does that intrigue you?
Maybe I can read your mind
Maybe you are thinking what I want you to
Maybe I’m saying what you want me to
It’s a game nevertheless
Just don’t know who’s playing who
Me and you?
Or life with itself
With us, two pawns
Figments of each other’s imagination
You know and I know

You’re uncomfortable in silences. In sighs. In whispers. In conversations. How do you feel about holding hands?
This day of August is a milestone.

Lovely play of words!!
As real as each other, we clash,

You breathe the fire that I light,
Love-mark each other with embraced love,
Horns locked tight as we mock-fight,
Burning heaven sends us its Peace dove.
Its amazing how they do that, isnt it? To read thru the masquerade that we think we have mastered..

hmmm.. too complicated for me! 🙂
There are times when I have felt that I am a pawn running like a guinea pig in someones grand expt.
Always thought that am the only one crazy enough to think along these lines.
But it would be “really” disturbing to know that the puppet master is someone driving on the next lane.

may be crystal balls and tarot cards are your stuff 😉
