A quiet mind.

The ferocious Queen stopped talking,today- my mind.
The queen who yelled and reined,
the queen who ran and flew,
the queen.. My mind, that tormented insane.
She stopped talking today.

The million thoughts,
the thousand talks,
the mind that buzzed with a talkative might,
My mind was my master,
and she stood silent today.

For the King stepped out,
and the air was cold,
so cold that the warmth of the hearts,
sobered to silence.

The hearts that once beat,
with the melody of love,
the heart that once loved,
with the passion of a madman,
The heart that once beat,
because it wanted to, for me.

Tonight, the King stepped out,
and my empire seems sparse and small,
the empire of my mind,
stood and stared through my iris,
and the coldness that set in,
to a dawn that was promised.

The ferocious Queen stopped talking,today- my mind.
and the silence rings,
to the hollow corners of a heart,
that wants to find her voice again.

-Nil.

  1. Are you sure that it was the right king for sure? It could just be a passing prince too.

    Let the queen be at peace for a while, she'll be lively and all new after a while. :)

    Cheers,

  2. when the king and the queen go hand in hand...things become even better:-)

    and knowing most queens, like my own, they don't become quiet forever...they take sabbaticals and are back with a bang:-)

    some very beautiful lines:-)

  6. My dear that was a lot of weight put together in the little one's mind! Infact, a little beyond my own reach :-)
    The mind subsides to silence many a times, happens every day at office! But the mind starts up again, and especially, the mind that belongs to the person won't let it be silent for too long, if I'm not wrong ;-)
    Take care little one, looks like you are growing up and your writing shows that.

    Much love, mesho and Mashi.
