Green or gray, songs touch every age.
Music envisages a memory & lyrics fuse an image.
Songs are melodic spells that breathe visions of Gideon into the weary.
Knowing a person's music is laying them bare,
knowing a person's music is knowing them in every way.
Universe performs on a note, waiting to be read right.
And the Lord said, "Grasp it and reveal your soul to burn brighter than sunshine."

When the dark times beckoned, the voice brought me to the Alps,
Laid me under a sky full of stars & whispered as I collapsed,
"Wait for the one who'll complete you, the one who'll fix you."
And with bated breath I've been stargazing ever since,
Waiting to wake up to the words that'll vanquish the lonely alien in me.
Feels like I have been waiting for my true crew for centuries.
Regardless of destiny, we all are entitled to our own symphony.
*
Maybe I found my Helen or maybe I'm destined to be lost, to be an ender.
Few moments, words and notes are enough to create memories of splendour.
I owe my mind to music, I owe it to everyone who introduced songs to me.
Every significant person in our life turns out to be a song.
Forming beautiful imprints on the notes, reminding every time they play out.
*
Few spells of ecstasy, few mysteries of love unfolding in her melody.
I thought I'll be alright, staring into her distant ocean eyes.
Her existence lasted for few moments, like a mirage of a beautiful sight.
But pristine enough to be coveted for eternity.
Her songs brought me back to reality, made me realise about my coveted memories.
I've learnt to not lament loss of any song, some songs stay for life.
While some are addictive, too good to be on repeat.
