And Some Unheard Melodies

(As you are reading it, read it in an adorable tone)

Amidst the night blooming fragrant flowers,

With the breeze so swift, so gentle,
And the night so young
Let me stop and ponder for a while
The place is quite familiar and the song too
Oh! Forever, why are you so long?
Do I really exist that long?

Getting tired of the rat race,

The annoying vexed venture of impeccability
With some overwhelming impossibility.
The exact lines though I remember no longer
The exact feelings although I do preserve for the decades longer
The Residue of a fading memory, I say
The lines read somewhat like -
Twinkling stars among the white clouds in the night sky and,
The poet's loneliness, his remembrance of someone very dear
Such song, such poem
No longer I can hear,
Amidst the hue and cry my dear,

Stories are different today,

Memories somehow prevails
Plucked rose or an expensive Ferrari
The journey in between is too long,
And full of forgetfulness
Pausing with sharp shocking turns
With a noise within the head
"Love conquers all"- they say.
