The Humming Heart

Expressing The Inexpressible





Words that never left home
afraid of the untrodden road
quivered in fear realizing
you were too far away to hear its call

What you failed to hear
were the sounds of love
treasured in its heart
For you....
For so long

Loosing you into the noise all around
now it drowns in the rain alone
Nothing matters now
repeating itself, an endless loop
all the things left unsaid
haunts the dreams spent with you

So it keeps searching
In its solemn silence
Forever wandering the air
that carries your presence

With your promise to meet halfway
saving each breath
to shout out one day
The words that lost its way




How do you feel evading the distant voice?
left to be mocked & laughed upon
Thrashed & tossed by the cruel winds
bruised, the state of love

Cheated again and again
by the world that hid you away
Looking for you in vain
while you stayed far from range
But hope its pitiful existence
amused you in some way

Still suppressing the screams & cries
it lingers on for you
with the melody left in your wake
a song turned meaningless
in your absence

And it keeps searching
In its solemn silence
Forever wandering the air
that carries your presence

With your promise to meet halfway
saving each breath
to shout out one day
The words that lost its way




I know no tune for world peace
Or melody to cure a disease
No song to raise awareness
Or words to define the crumbling humanity

All I can do is may be
Describe the bus ride home
A few words in between about
The guy who sat next to me,
How unproductive the lessons they teach feel like,
Or the canteen food that was disgusting


So don’t come to me with matters worldly
I hardly care at all
What’s going on fails to concern me
Because I’m locked behind my wall

Don’t come to me expecting heavenly beats
I know not how to raise life’s worth
All I can do is bring you back to reality
And help you be down to earth



Even if you ask me I can’t tell you
How beautiful is a hill view
For all I have come across are street sides
Piled with trash each day as I pass by
And a dingy backdrop of cascading houses
That would make any four walls look like paradise


So don’t come to me describing nature’s beauty
For I hardly care at all
What’s going on fails to concern me
Because I’m locked behind my wall

Don’t come to me expecting heavenly beats
I know not how to raise life’s worth
All I can do is bring you back to reality
And help you be down to earth

About this blog

The heart hums something about the ineffable. It’s trying to give you a glimpse into the enigma. You can understand it, yet you can never understand it completely. It is elusive, it escapes. It is within reach, but it is not within grasp. You are always coming closer and closer to it, but you may never arrive. Still the heart waits with hope for the day someone arrives, when the distinction between the seeker and the sought disappears!
