Stardust




They lied.

They lied when they said if you aspire to have something, you will always have it.

Of all the aspirations anyone could have, of all the aspirations I could have had, to see the world crumble, the world where You once lived, would not even have been my last thought. It could not be anybody's, possibly and most likely.

Now, the world where You and I once lived has stopped existing. Nevertheless, You will forever live in every speck of my shattered existence of dust.

The stardust in me will always find the stardust in You. They are destined.

Forever.

Forelsket

The night brightened, the lightning smiled,
The thunder cooed, the sky was beguiled,
With the ambrosia from clouds, the earth was styled,
The air was perfumed and the Sunflower bud shined.

The bud bloomed, as the summer sang,
Far from the east, the ray of Sun sprang,
With a unique charm, embraced the Sunflower,
And adore of all the worlds he did shower.

Enamoured as one could be, the Sunflower has been...
Vowed her Love for eternities,
More than forever could have ever seen...
For theirs is a story, that Time has destined.

The Cave

Meeting You
Was discovering
An unexplored cave in the wild. 
Unintended. Unexpected.
(To say the least.)

It was so unfamiliar
Even though the cave fit
Almost perfectly
With the place where it was.

I was supposed to steer clear
Of the unknown
I was supposed to not dwell
In the woods either
I was supposed to avoid a venture.
Any venture.
Not anymore.
Not once more.

Yet I found myself marvelling
At the intricacies...
The light and the dark.
I walked in the paths
Laced with the fragrances
Of the flowers I revered
Of the sunlight I held dear
And of a mystical camphor-like breeze
That seemed to sooth my soul.

I knew I was there
But just to witness
The quirks of nature.
I knew I was there
But just to admire
The painter's work
As the colors blended
To form her heart's desire.
I knew I would recede my steps.
Sooner..
And wouldn't go any further.

But quirkiness
Has always been nature's nature
And vivacity
The artist's muse.

So I journeyed on
As the unclaimed paths in the cave
Claimed me as their own

I have gone
On and on
Discovering new flowers
And butterflies previously unknown
It still is a cave
With untraversed paths
And yet newer turns 
Now I don't see a path
That returns
Is it because there isn't one
Or is it because
It's not what I seek anymore? 

So, I keep going..
Exploring
The never ending abode
Of the cave

Because 
Meeting You 
Was discovering
An unexplored cave in the wild. 
Unintended. Unexpected.
(To say the least)

But
Knowing You
Is the journey I take
To explore the cave in the light.
Desired. Wished.
(To say the least)

Your Story

All she wanted was to love
But how could she
Knowing what it could have done

All she wanted was to console them
But how could she
Knowing that her hug would be shunned

Love is all she was
So she withdrew to corners
Where she would be hard to find

Until You found her
And she sparkled
Like the bejeweled stars

Yes, she melted
But she melted in Love
And she loved like Love never could

She danced 
And dazzled and glistened with You
She glimmered and shimmered
And blushed when she knew
That she was destined
Destined With You

That's where your story began
For she was Ice
And You were the sun

Destined



It was probably
Just another afternoon sky
But every aspect of it
Reminded me of You
Smiling preciously
While nonchalantly stroking Your hair
With a blushing warmth
Adorning your eyes
And I realized one more time
You are the destined journey my smile takes
To find a home in my eyes everytime.

Eternal

The yellow sunflowers
In the sprawling fields
Glanced at the glowing horizon
As the sun set beyond the goldfields

The moments of the farewell
They gladly embraced
For they know they have avowed
For their destinies to be interlaced

There might be distances
Either spatial or temporal
But this "us" is forever and eternal

The Voice

There are some voices
That are calming and gentle
That can relax your soul
Enough to put yourself
In the lap of a sweet sleep.

There are some voices
That are radiant and vibrant
That can energize your heart
Enough to put yourself
In the embrace of a spirited smile.

And then there is that one voice
Vivacious than a thousand rainbows
But gentler than the breeze
That can soothe your being
But make your heart skip a beat
That has the passion of the waves
But is balming like flowery days
Enough to make you experience 
The immenseness of Love.

Elixir

Soft breeze on a sunlight soaked day
As the reflections of your essence play
In the turquoise hues of the ocean
In a gentle laced motion

Aroma of the tulips
Festooned with moments adored
And the elixir of soul
With hearts sworn in accord

With hopes of Forever and Beyond
Dance of divine
The aura performed

Rhythm of Destiny

The raised eyebrows
With that mystery of a look
In the depth of those eyes

The smile and the laughter
Half veiled sometimes
By a slight touch of hands

That adorable expression
While trying to
Make sense of something

And then the witty remark
Adorned with
The tint of nonchalance

Is it the cosmos humming
Or just the heart beating
To the rhythm of Destiny

Cosmos Rays

Once upon a moon, I wandered
Deep in the tall grey forest
It was never a journey
I wished to take
Yet I never wondered
Why I was there

It was calm everywhere
Enough of it to hear
The rustle of the leaves
Yet I never listened

My thoughts,
if there were any,
Hovered around
In a brownian motion
As they meandered in the
Flickering light of the glow worms

Then on a morning like any other
You shined on me, like the
First rays from the brilliant sun
From far across the mountains

With your smile
Sweeter than ambrosia
And your snuggling grasp
Softer than the breeze
You showed me the path
I had long forgotten

And as we walked through
The field of the Cosmos flowers
I could feel my heart beat again
To the melody of your breath

Azaleas

Merely meandering
Through a lawn of Lilies
In the sun, shining
A charming strand of Azaleas
Got my eyes beaming

Perfumed the air
With a deep blush smile
Entranced, I stayed put
For more than a while

Was it forever and a day
Or was it just a blink
It felt everything and more
In those shades of pink

Longer I may stay
Or journey on, I may
But that Love is my home
Azaleas,
That is where my heartbeats lay.

Destiny and Destination

The beam traversed
A thousand light years.
Not knowing
If its existence
Will ever be felt.

It just knew that it needs 
To illuminate its destination.

Even if it was for
A fraction of a second.
Even if the destination wasn't
Even aware of the source.

It's the journey
Of that beam
That mattered to it.

For it was its destiny.

About Me

My photo
As a blogger, one of the things I am often asked is "How/ When did you get started with all this?" For as long as my memory takes me back, I have always found myself pondering about a plethora of things. I have always loved reflecting on the small but wonderful aspects of life. Ipsita Contemplates has been very special and I love to get the opportunity to share my musings, my thoughts, and my perceptions with you. It is also a way to appreciate the essence of Life!
