Drowning Eyes

By Raghunath | Published: November 21, 2009
I see what you show through your eyes, I see the words unsaid. I see the unborn questions raised, The thoughts that came and fled. O love, my love, I see it all, I see it my own way. ‘Cause ’till you saw me off tonight, I saw what you just said. Blind, I fall [...]

Reboot?

By Raghunath | Published: January 11, 2009
I thought that I should remember something that I wanted to write about and later realized that I did not remember what I thought I wanted to remember to write about.
