It all started with a simple facebook status update at 8 in the morning… a song… a face………………,,,,,. Both haunting, both mysterious, both lasting………
The eyes asking…, inviting…. urging to look beyond… look behind them into the depths of space!!! The face smiling ever so slightly, as if a warning… the eyes warm and welcoming… the face a link to this life… the eyes another!!!
Sitting at my table, as always, turned on by music… the urge to express… the bluntness of language against the continuity of music… the impossibility of words to be able to express what transcends the soul…
The lights outside… the festivity… the noise… the expression of joy… the feeling of warmth… the collective insatiable urge of all to be loved!!!
Loneliness……….. the bliss… the feeling… the knowledge of love… the need to be accepted, approved and loved… in moments such as these, the real beauty of life flashes through the soul…….
The want to be Alive….. the peaks of darkness in the otherwise plateau of routine,,,
The sighs getting longer,,, minutes at a time,,, the throbbing pain against the chest,,, the happiness from the realization… to be alive,… to be human,,, to be loved!!!
The most beautiful diwali… the darkness of the room, mind and soul set alight by the colours outside the window,,, the recognition of human bond,,, the satisfaction to know what only man can,,, to feel what only man can,,, to understand what only man can… the colours in my mind in an otherwise white background…
Nothing like an evening of solitude,,, encompassed by celebration of joy, music… to make us alive……..all over again!!!
