AN UNFINISHED PAINTING

I thought they were perfect.

Strokes of happiness.

Tales of love forever.



But I was wrong….

They were half-done

When the brush slipped.



Never to be picked up again.

My artist was gone…

I never knew, where.



I wish I weren’t

An unfinished painting ,

A toy in the hands of a mortal….

so much of pain...
incompleteness...
Tulika said…
What shall I call it?
Somber eyes
Or unsketched face.

And it's
Both.

He loves me/ He loves me not !

My artist was gone…

Winces the very soul.!

An Unfinished Painting
With its rough edges and dark secrets
Is so much more beautiful
Than a complete picture
That leaves little to imagination

You write well mate... keep at it...

A new artist, a new painting.
Unfortunately a painting can have only one artist.

the definition beauty of italian painter carlotti would have certainly qualified for this unfinished painting...

A s I was walking , C hoosing the hues of life, R ainclouds made an appearance O n the sunny sky above. S cuttling through untrodden paths, T he narrow bylanes,not a soul around, I was indeed lost - Drops of rain C hased me - but Ahoy! a way was found.

ILLUSIONS OF REALITY...

The more you point out my mistakes, The more you are drawn towards me. The more you try to hurt me, The more you bleed in your heart. The more you run away from me, The more my memories haunt you. The more you want to forget me, The more you are reminded of my presence. The more you want to chase me away, The closer I come to you. The more you hate me, The more you end up loving me. The more you call me an “illusion” The more I dawn as the reality of your life….

UNUTTERED WHISPERS

I know it was you, following me all along. I don’t need eyes to see you. It started raining and I paced up. You were anxious about me.You offered me your umbrella with your face hidden.Only if you had understood me ! I never said those three words, but I thought you knew. P.S 1:My first attempt at 55 fiction. P.S : A real big thank you to all blogger friends who made my birthday "A day to remember".
