Mayhem



Confound am baffled ,
what made you change your mind
 that you pulled me out of the huddle ;

Now don't you turn around and say "you were puzzled ,
you are volatile , your mood swings are known ,
you are, at times mercurial"

You gave me no reason for your prejudice ,
nor told me why you made me go through vile ,
and why should i struggle like a lonely fish in a pond
unaware of the way out of  the wild waters that had no flavour ;

Now when I feel safe and cuddled ,
his warmth is all that I feel around me
and the only thing I can hear is his heart beat ,
 absolute silence away from multitude ,
his breath wrapped around me like  vine
around a tree , I am in a state of contentment
now don't ruffle nor perturb
let me stay in this state ,
my prayer is profound ,
now don't you  astound me ,
I hope I made my stand clear ,
I want no mayhem .

  5. Well written. It gave me two feelings, which are strictly personal
    1. It started off with a mood to fight a big one, but later there was a realization that there's need to waste so much energy on that and it's better to speak out the point!!!
    2. The lines find similarity with the nonrhythmic rhymes of Pink Floyd.

    Please consider going through some of my poems and photographs.

  6. Well written! Nice way to start it off! I guess that's a state all of us want to be in! Good one Alka!

  7. Hi Alka

    Former love, new love
    Fear of loss laced with fear of surrender

    I quite enjoyed ... his breath wrapped around me like vine around a tree .... an ethereal wrap!

    Interesting poem.
