It must be the moon.
for which. sun changes.
its directions. from east to west.
But, finds no signs of it.

//Sun //moon

I'll break into pieces.
thousands of time,
for my verses will heal me.
Gracefully...

Untitled

Swaddle me in thy arms. tightly.
for this four walled thing. haunts.
it's no more like home.
I feel homeless.

My silence, haunts me. seldom
shelter me in your screams.
for they won't let me feel alone.

-your screams

I dry up. fall down.
Each Autumn.
Reach out to you.
To bloom you.
The coming Spring.

I'm afraid of my silence.
wrap me in your screams.

You (a shadow)...

Vishal Gupta Jan 2018

You (a shadow)...

By the time
I've read you.
completely
and gave you
my whole.

It was only
night. all over.
and you were
not there. then

- you (a shadow)

You make me feel seasons...

Vishal Gupta Dec 2017

You make me feel seasons...

Without you each season feels like Autumn. to me.
With you even Autumn turns into Spring.

(Seasons you make me feel)

You opt to...

Vishal Gupta Jan 2018

You opt to...

my darkness
falls vulnerable.
against the shine.
of your eyes.

but you opt
to keep them
close.

the cacophony
eco less. in mind
against the chaos
of yours.

but you opt
to keep yourself
silent.

Your essence...

Vishal Gupta Nov 2017

Your essence...

My words somehow manage to
wrap themselves in your essence.
I no more wonder why they seem
so beautiful to me. always.

Your silence...

Vishal Gupta Feb 2018

Your silence...

I wonder if
your silence.
is affixed to
my chaos.

Each time
you impose
your silence
on me.

It triggers
my chaos.
putting stop
to my calm.

Then i drown
and drown,
and drown,
into restlessness.
