Past...

Like the stack of old letters;

The books you stored with care;

Past years grow old too.

The dust of memories gets thicker

Just like that layer of yellowness,

Touch of old times

Velvety and soft…..




*Wishing you all a very happy new year*

Last time...

I.

The tender dew drops

Falling onto the ground

Is all I can hear

Shadow of the night grows

The silence between the drops gets too long to bear

What then was a moment

Now seems like a year…


II.

Last time we met was for the last time we met???

Soul's New Song

Don't look back

It will tug at your heart

Let the past go

Let go of the memories

And the clutching pain.

Soon the stars will fade

The blackness of the night will melt

In the soothing lights of a new dawn

Tomorrow will be another day

Tomorrow will have a new sun.....

*Wishing you all a soulful New Year*
