lifetime

hold me close

pamper me

like no one ever did

and

make the moment

last a lifetime

on my birthday

on my birthday

I look at you both with affection

my sisters

a reminiscent

of my parent’s existence

a constant reminder

that we were born

of the same love

between two people

who no longer stay

in the mortal world

it’s love

it’s love

which is above all emotions

happiness and sadness

midlife crisis…haiku

midlife crisis

thoughtful nights

old age beckoning

no hiding old age

grey hair peeping

from under the fashion colour

can’t hide old age

love song

ah! that love song

evoking intense memories

of youth and passion

lonesome tonight … haiku

lonesome night

my resounding heart beat

gives me company

expectations

I am angry

not at you

for you have stood by me

but with myself

for expecting much more

hold on to life

hold on to life

and what it offers

for

it may cease to offer

anytime soon

never unhappy

pull yourself together

retreat

into your soul

breathe mindfully

and

you will never be unhappy again
