“With her and that someday
He entered the quietness of his own mind,
Where he could not be by anyone found,
Neither by the rays of the bright sun,
Nor by the deeds that seek him for acts still undone,
But he lies in the silence of his mind, quiet and silent,
Here he deals with million feelings, many permanent and a few transient,
He thinks of her and her beautiful ways,
In the darkness of nights and brightness of sunny days,
Seeking something that would lead him to her,
And then rest there, in that sacred space of his mind, forever with her,
Time calls him but he appears to be heedless to its every call,
The day invites him, but all its invitations collide against a robust wall,
The wall of his mind that surrounds him permanently,
Because there he likes to be with her virtual entity,
Maybe he wants to escape from this state of morbid stillness,
But in this stillness, a state of nothingness, he experiences a feeling of fullness,
For imagination is the darling muse of every beautiful mind,
And maybe there he lies with her, beyond the evil fangs of reality, in the imagination of his mind,
Undisturbed by the evil intended men and women,
Who always want to act in other’s lives as specialist foremen,
Without realising winter can never know the feelings of the summer,
And without having loved and lost, how can others think they are better,
So they force him to digress and retire to his mind, and the quiet space there,
A place that actually is nothing and nowhere, but for him for now, it is his only somewhere,
Where love finds him because he always finds it,
In her memories, in her imaginations, and in the strange devices of his own wit,
So he has become anonymous for the world, but a sort of forced anonymity with a hidden intent,
Because whenever I see him, I feel he did not go there, there he was forcefully sent,
Maybe he is long dead now, and it is his ghost that visits this mind,
Because he is obsessed with knowing the undefined,
For most of us have to muster courage,
But a few of us are born with it way above the normal average!
And perhaps a typhoon of thoughts is on its way,
Who knows when, because they murdered him a long ago, but his ghost is still seeking to resurrect him one day, that anonymous someday!”

“With her left thigh draped over his right hip, he pleasured her at a more leisurely pace. She closed her eyes and let him love her.
Before long, however, he had stoked her fire until it blazed again. She pressed him onto his back and, looking intrigued with the possibilities, sat astride him; he never left her body. Victorious atop him, she appeared to savor this position---and her newfound power over him.
There was no denying it. At the moment, he was hers, body and soul, whether she knew it or not. Whether he was quite ready for that or not. He was sure as hell not ready to admit it.
"Rohan," she murmured, "why haven't we been doing this all the time that I've been here?"
He gave her a licentious half smile. "I was trying to convince you that I was a gentleman," he replied, his low tone roughened by desire.

“With her!
Today and at the moment right now,
But soon, nowhere and no more now,
That is how she loves me,
Always now, but in a moment nowhere to be,
Today dreaming about yesterday,
Where tomorrow is never meant to be today,
An un-ending streak of yesterdays and todays,
Where she is nothing more than the memory of the bygone days,
And how the memories flashback in every passing moment,
Reminding me of her and her seductive scent,
As she flashes before my eyes,
I curse my helplessness because I cannot hold her despite my million tries,
Then something within me cries and slowly dies,
And in this permanent visual fixation now my heart lies!”
