Summer's Heat

Loneliness is killing me silently
Thy memoire are shagging me so intense
I am unable to sleep peacefully
Thou..revisiting me is a suspense

Parceling feelings in the communion 
Glancing upon waves of lustful romance
Awaiting world,force couples re-union
Betwixt inappropriate circumstance

Caressing his face in photo album
Again and again true love vail for him
Awe-struck entangled nerves fail to fathom
Doused frantic emotions stare at the glim

Hither and thither swirls my moaning brain
Squirts out extreme vigour of thine in drain

Time Is a Magician

Time does magic, 
for it is not real.
Time is all illusion, 
a sleight-of-hand.

We're tricked by it,
parceling time into
minutes and hours,
days and  months,
years and decades:
but they don't exist,
no more than a 
border does when
viewed from space.

You can prove that, 
however old you are:
think back to a very 
early memory, like
riding a bike or 
tying your shoes 
for the first time 
without help from
the grown-ups...
be it twenty years
or sixty years ago, 
doesn't it really 
seem like it was 
only yesterday?
