Quotes and poetry by missriya

When I was a wee bairn
I planted a little tree at
shady corner of my Garden
Every day, dawn to dusk,
I hastened excitedly
from home to garden.
And happily I watered my little tree.
A few days passed,
An anticipation came over me
why could not my little
tree turn into a big tree
I was watering with nostalgia
for when it would get bigger
I didn’t know the biorhythm
since I was a kid
In course of time I neglected
visiting the garden
Infancy was over and
juvenescence has begun
I had gone abroad for
my tertiary school and returned
home as a jobholder
That huge tree in my garden
greeted me by trembling his branches
I stared at him with amazement
and the thoughts of our old days
penetrated my head
I breached the confined curbs
and melancholy in
his shadow, warmth, serenity
and love, I laid on his lap for a while.
From childhood to old age
We are in a hurtle to run towards
something and
We forget to enjoy the
tiny little raptures in between.

Let's fall in love,
where my eyes speak
your heart listens.

Let's fall in love,
where you write poetry
through my hand.

Let's fall in love,
where promises live
in endeavors than words.

Let's fall in love,
where ferocity immersed
in essence of lenity.

Let's fall in love,
where melancholy withers
and euphoria blossoms.

Let's fall in love,
where my selcouth beauty
lures you towards forever!

/And Darling,
Abduct me to the world
where forlorn eyes
and caged souls never hide
behind smiling faces!/

a date in scarlet

It was a night like any other
When he entered the bar on the street corner
And ordered the usual cognac on the rocks
With his favourite golden fried prawns.

Just after a few sips his gaze started to wander
And he noticed a gorgeous woman in a scarlet strapless top
Sitting two bar stools away from him
With a glass of red wine as she browsed through the menu.

He was a man like any other
So he got up and sat on the stool next to her,
She gave a quick side glance and kept leafing through the menu,
Looked like she was in no mood to give a cue.

So he thought of breaking the ice first
In the most casual way possible
And suggested the golden fried prawns for her
And said that they go down well with any type of liquor.

She stared at him for a couple of seconds too long
Then puckered her lips darker than the wine she sipped
He could see a twinkle in her kohl rimmed eyes
As she asked for golden fried prawns in a husky voice.

In the short time she spent instructing the waiter
the gentleman kept staring at the back of her neck
Where criss crossing green veins shot through her cream skin
Before disappearing behind her ears and inside her clavicle.

When the prawn arrived, she tasted it and said it was nice
Didn't thank him or anything but just smiled
But for him that was enough hope
To believe he would get lucky tonight.

Then they started chatting and he asked her
Whether she was new to this place
As he was a regular here
And would not have missed such a pretty face.

She replied in the affirmative
Said she was on a solo road trip
And stopped by for a quick drink
Before she hit the pedal towards the next city.

Now he was curious and said that there was nothing sexier
Than a woman lusting for wanderlust
When it came to pick up lines, he was a genius
Though a part of him feared whether they would work.

But she smiled again with those pouty lips of hers
Said that he seemed like a certified flirt
He just shrugged and said he could do better
And there were a lot of other things he was good at.

After a few drinks they exchanged their glasses
Laid caution aside and mixed their spirits
Till they were drunk upto their faces
And the bartender said that it was time to leave.

He insisted on settling the cheque
Though she kept slurring that they go dutch
Till they finally reached an agreement
Where she could pay for the next date.

Then they rose from their seats
And walked out of the revolving door
Clutching each other to steady staggering feet
That could hardly feel the floor.

That was the moment she invited him inside her car
Parked at the back of the bar
He was in no state to turn down such a tempting offer
So they just tumbled into the back seat together.

The next morning he woke up with a hang over
And a throbbing pain in his neck
He saw his face in the rear view mirror
It looked like a ghost kissed by death.

Then he saw a sight that left him horror struck
Two tiny teeth marks on the back of his neck oozing blood
He panicked and looked around for his lady love
But she was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly it dawned on him that he was alone in an abandoned car
As if last night had been a figment of his imagination,
He gazed out of the window and saw a graveyard
As his head started to spin beyond control.

He jumped out of the dusty car gasping for air
Even as he profusely perspired,
His face had started to contort and change
Yes, he was turning into a vampire.

It was a beautiful dawn.
While the Sun stirs,
he peers his head out from
underneath a blanket of
the wintry night sky.
He kissed my face and
was ready to embrace
the world again.

And I,
I slowly opened my
heavy eyelids,
I inhaled the morning dew,
My clinomania ends.
I stood by the window and
gazed at my Garden.

Basking butterflies
Sprouting Seeds
Chirping Birds
Spinning Spiders
Dancing Daffodils
Sanctuarizing Trees
implied "It's a new day,
fresh and young!"

The zephyr whispered
"It's another Day of your Life,
and you are alive
as your eyes captured
another sun rise;
it's time to rise and shine
and you deserve happiness.
Perhaps, not everyone is
guaranteed for next Day!"

And that moment,
I valued the existence
of myself!

And Darling,
I never desired on
Your promises to
Stars and Moon,
as they are
just the words
strung in a sentence
When our hearts beat
the rhythm of
love beyond eternity
Love me like
a neonate loves
his mother
for no reason!

Have you ever felt that feeling , all alone and sad and yet you don't know the cause of it?
It is one of the worst feelings...
Your heart becomes heavier,just like someone had put something big and heavy on it!
Your head feels heavier and dizzy,as everything becomes just questionmarks..
You try to think as hard as you could ,to find the source of your sadness and your mind just revolves around the answer"i don't know".
The sad melodies you enjoyed to hear everynight...this time the lyrics starts to hit you hard!
Summer will be same as winter as you lose the warmth of your heart.
Trust is no longer an option as you will not be able to choose...
Everything seems to be wrong with you and others just look fine,it's just you who is suffering..
The emotions are like the leaves that is ready to fall from the tree as autumn embrace and takes it youthful life...
This time it's going to be harder to you...
But
My dear,
Hang on a little more,
The storms will pass,
The autumn will end
And happiness will bloom again.

My dear,
Hang on a little more
The storms will pass
The autumn will end
And happiness will bloom once again..

psipher 66w

I have been living on icicles and I don't know for how long I will last. I have been running away from entropy, trying to clasp all those memories fading away. I have been abrupt and slow, silent with waves of chaos sweeping my shores. I have been romanticizing my pains like puffs from cigar: evanescent; like sips from brewery: stale, fermenting. The reason I fall is not the gusts of wind but the breezes: gentle, stabbing, forlorn. Recently I have been a history trying to colonize undiscovered arenas of my hallway, but the shards piercing my heart sabotage already futile attempts to live. I have been living in photographs, figuring out why it went downhill, cascading. Now when I shed tears, orphan, I resonate with the alleys where suns resurrect in the horizons of hurt. Also I have been caffeinated, lost in the urban traffic, singing in the chores of mob, drunk on traumas. And I have been removing my robes like the world enwraps corpse with shroud. I have lost the skill to conclude, it doesn't end; do you ever stop tasting gourmet of emotions?

I made a new friend : A story of Depression and Anxiety.

I didn't want to meet her .I wanted to pretend she wasn't there, but deep down she was ...she was always with me , everywhere I went .She was slightly darker ,but almost just like me ..but maybe that 's because she has been a part of me for so long .
Now. .she is my best friend and like my soulmate --------"DEPRESSION"

My new friend and I have a mutual friend : Anxiety. Anxiety and I have been friends since I was in my adolescent stage .I get nervous about everything , sometimes I literally don't know why I 'm anxious, I just am and no -one seems to understand that...
Anxiety blocks out the good parts of me and I screams and yells so no-one can hear me ..,but sometimes,I used to hate her ,but now I 've grown used to her and accepted her presence in my life .She makes my life miserable and traumatic.
I wish she 'd give me a break ..but instead she decided to bring another person into my messed up life -"Depression "
DEPRESSION is a tricky friend - completely invisible.I could almost forget she was there ,if it weren't for her hands resting on my shoulder,reminding me she 's still there.
The first time I realised her presence in my life ....
1. When my mom had a brain stroke(29/02/2012) resulting in her numbness ...her left portion of the body was totally paralysed..but fortunately due to god's grace and my heartfelt wishes ...within 3_4 months she had recovered from this fatal disease ...but again on 4 rd June 2014 she had a second attack leading her to the same problem which she had encountered earlier ..
I used to be very quiet girl from the very beginning itself .I didn't like to talk much to anyone....I just loved being in myself ..but somewhere this incident broke me ..and I started living alone and adopted "anti socialist policy " ..
I was pursuing my graduation and living in the hostel ...but just physically ...mentally I was at my home only near my mom ...
As per the doctors recommendation ...." There are lesser chances of recovery after you get a second attack of paralysis " ...so today also she is still in the same condition ( bedridden) with some minor improvements.
2. Sudden and unexpected demise of my grandfather also took me in depression ...since I was very close to him ...he was like my godfather ..These all incidents consequently reminds me of her presence in my life .She clings to my leg ,and I drag her along with every step I take ..
Those days I can't smile or laugh or love ..I barely talk with anyone.. enjoying my own company and living in solitude.
During the nights, and the moments I 'm alone , pondering over my graveyard of untold miseries, sufferings and secrets ,she often gets the best of me .She crawls into my lap ,flings her arms around my neck and rests her head on my shoulder, trapping me ..She brought some new friends along with her -anger ,loneliness and seclusion. I think she enjoys my anger because it makes me more like her.I couldn't ignore her ,any longer. I had to accept her ,no matter how mad or embarrassed or broken ..accepting her presence made me feel. I think anger, depression, Anxiety and loneliness will follow me till eternity ., waiting for the chance to latch back on .
There is a gut wrenching loneliness and near constant anxiety and then there is the checking out the feelings nothing at all...the numbness .. sometimes I don't know which is worse ,but I will try to explain both ..
The worst part is --no matter what I have been through in the past ,or what my depression,tries to make me believe.I know I am loved by everyone and I know that because of the hard work I have done to get to that place in my life ...and still doing ,and because of some of the amazing people in my life who make sure that I know that they are there for me everytime...I fake emotions,happiness and normal feelings around friends and my family ,not always very well but when I am depressed ...I just don't care about anything.
1. Because depression is a disease and I will always have it ..
2. Because my depression is a part of who I am .
3. Because I am the author of my own life and I choose to put a commas ,semicolons instead of a full stop at every point that my depression tells me otherwise..

This is my first and may be the last lengthiest post I ' ve ever written .I use to write mainly ..one liner,short poems,short story or shayaris etc ... because of my hectic schedule..
Research related hiatus keeps me away from writing long posts.#pardon me for not writing long writeups # Jo bhi likhte h ,jhel liya karo aap log pls ��
Will be partially active on mirakee ...Bye
#pod

"Because depression is a disease and I will always have it .
Because my depression is a part of who I am .
Because I am the author of my own life and I choose to put a commans, semicolons instead of full stop at every point that my depression tells me otherwise"

I'm a Pisces -)-(- Girl !

Yes, I'm a pisces girl lives in two worlds,
the real world and the spiritual or mystical where I interpret what I see into what I want. I do this to avoid all the reality of misery and suffering in the world. I have extremes of emotions and feel both good and bad intensively.

My heart is as enormous as the universe, if only people would see that. I'm a simple person often dreaming, constantly trying to find out the meaning. I'm good at understanding people for I have the ability to delve into the psyche see behind the person's motivations.

Neptune is the ruling planet of mine and it is the planet of oneness and imagination. I'm intuitive and that helps me to take the right decisions. I'm always ready to help people who needs me in life. I have a very honest and idealistic approach to life. I always follow my heart and pave my own way.

I get along with many types of people. I'm a great listener with good memory. I never mind doing even the smallest of things to make someone happy. If someone breaks my heart I go through a long stage of sadness and I realize my own strength and get over it.

As I am a pisces, I prefer a partner who would love me beyond time. I love to surprise my partner in different ways and that makes me a thoughtful person in love. I'm too sensitive when it comes to my feelings and I can't express my love openly. But I like to be mushy at times. My kisses are passionate and I'm an ideal partner everyone would love to have.

A pisces heart is the most tender of all the signs and that heart must be handled with delicate care.
