mobile thoughts

these happen in moments when i fancy a thought. where before i'd write them on random objects, napkin, palm of my hand, back of receipts, armrest of a chair, wall- now, it's my trusty pocket pc i turn to. these are some selected random mumblings. make of it whatever you can.

slowly the paper burns by the embers of lasts, like the tomorrows that will never be. the heart which was strong now latches itself on mere dreams. and slowly, as it had before, gives up to the last draw of breath.

***
there it is. the first few nervous glances. strangers sleight of hand in a dimly lit room. then the conversation pregnant with many intentions.

***
staring long and hard at the winding stairs. waiting for you to come. my beer is too deep into the bottle. waiting. waiting for you. now I stare at the empty seat beside me. then I imagine how it would have been like with you here. now. now that i've switched to dark lager and I still wait for you.

and there you are. you with your charms and long sleeved shirt and khaki pants on a friday night. a casual hello and that touch on my elbow that cannot be held back.

now we sit- a few millimeters apart, your knee to my thigh and nearer still your fingers to my shoulders. how many seconds more till we touch?

love bought by fear

where will you go

When night steals into your windows

and demands truth

love stolen by shame

will it be found again

when will knocks down your walls

and calls out for you

love where do you go

when no longer you cannot hide

from searching looks

and faint gestures of comprehension
