Abstracts.....

These are abstract poems...few liners as I call it.
Standing were two pretty ladies
Right across the road
May be I should approach,
May be not.
Lost in such conundrum
Clock ticked many
Along came a bike
Some bloke
Saluted a hello

And the women
Out of sight
While I stood
Maybe…….
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Life gives you opportunities
Some are good, they survive
Some are better, they win
Some are best, they conquer

While we,
"Let others first
Only to regret later"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If only, I could have
Spoken to her then
Would things differ?
From then to now and for ever?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have to remind myself,
Let go, move on;
I deserve better,
Is there?
Do I?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How I wish,
Money would not exist
Or I had all
Either ways,
Suppositions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soothe my mind
Caress my lips
Warm my body
Craving for more
Gentle and loving
Never indifferent

"Smokes"- my best ladies
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many a while, till the times of dawn
Standing by the window
Intermittently smoking
Watching the lights turn off
One by one, of each apartment
Of every floor.
Peaceful and calm
After every light is off
Covered in the darkness
Watching the stars
Whichever few
Those appear twinkling
Through the concrete heights
Many a light years far
Some proud,
Shining bright.
While others humble
Contempt by themselves.
Incredible sight.
A cluster of divine pearls
Lull to sleep
Mesmerizing dreams
fairy tales.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a far off place,
Beyond obligations
Off society,
Green fields,
Skies true
A hut beside a lake
Overlooking a mountain
Cold and freezing
Coupled with warmth
Of dawns’ virgin rays
Cliched portrait
Bliss, nevertheless!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The phone bell rang
I greeted a hello
No one spoke
Only a pitch
Of awkward breathing
Who could it be?
Why din speak?
Was my voice harsh?
Hello, sounded
Too hollow, did it?
Thought about it
For a while
Gave up
Confused!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faces seem familiar
A bit too familiar
A symptom,
Of some illness?
Part of
Any conspiracy?
Coincidences?
Illusions?
Too many!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lights go out
Some hour, everyday
The cruel sun
In summers peak
Vapouring ice
Condensed heat,
Sweat and burns
For apathy of men
Misery to the soil.
Yet shining,
Some say.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They say,
How good is theory?
If not practiced?
True!
For a tired mind
an ill heart
Resulting, idle hands
Difficult!
Not impossible.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some adore me
Some like me
Some might even love
Do they know me?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I describe myself?
Lost in varying traits
What is my true self?
Resembling else and many
Who am I?
Inhibiting personalities
Where is me?
Searching within
A clutter of facades…….
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trust me,
Will you dare?
If yes,
Let me introduce,
some of me....
