SILENT THOUGHTS...


If ever I’m lost in blue,

Will you shed a tear or two?

Will you sit by my gravestone

And miss the way I had loved you?


If ever life takes a turn,

I travel to the land of no return 

Will you take some time out

To mourn the truth that I am gone?


Will you smell the clothes i wore?

Will you still sit at the door

Waiting in vain for me to come?

And then remember im no more.


Will you miss the way we faught?

And then, the way we laughed a lot;

Will you miss my endless nags

Or will you find the peace you sought?


Will you let go way too fast?

Will you forget me at last?

Life moves on ,but love does not

My soul will keep living the past. 

ODE...



Once there was a little miracle

My womb was the only world she knew,

Our heartbeats were synced together 

Bit by bit inside me she grew.


Out came the little miracle 

On my lap she giggled and played.

Her smile brightened up my whole world

Her voice made my mind so fresh. 


Day by day I watched her grow

Like a blooming morning flower.

Her love for me along with poured

Like the early monsoon showers.


Her hard hugs soothed my daily blues,

Her gestures blessed my life’s value. 

 Her aura so blissful, pure

She made me feel so secure. 

 

Like the first beam of sunlight,

Her touch made me feel alive. 

Like the pristine morning breeze,

Her being helped me survive. 



My small wonder is growing now, 

Inch by inch her wings get built. 

One day she will fly away.

Thenceforth I will droop and wilt. 



LOST...


I dont know what im dreaming  ‘bout

I dont know who I miss.

I donno the place I am homesick for

If really does exists. 

UNTIED

 

I’ve learnt to live without you.

After a rough journey of expectations 

And disappointments 

And expectations again,

I finally now know 

How to let go. 

I was latched onto you

Like a miserable soul

Thinking that someday

You ll make me whole. 

It took me endless ,sleepless nights

To make my heart 

So harsh and cold.

My dried up eyes now shed no tears

Or hopeless sighs say no more prayers

I have learnt to embrace the ache

The lonely air causes no more drear. 

I dont now sit in dark lone rooms,

Surrounded by the eerie gloom,

And feeling like a forlorn stray.

 I now want you to keep away.

I have now set you free

You in my life ,I no more see

True love has now tiptoed slowly,

At last I am in love with me

SILENT MURDER..


Pyres burning everywhere 

And suffering all around

Moribund screams fill the ears

And death toll knows no bound


Grim reaper treads the face of earth

In search of souls so damned

Hell has descended upon the world 

Life is now a sham. 


The cosmos burns with violent rage

Engulfing all mankind

The curse of God consumes the race

Mercy is now denied.


What was once a sprightly land

Is now  a large graveyard

Earth is now godforsaken

smell of death now soaks the air


Nature has claimed her planet back

From the grasp of cruel slayers

We have Her blood on our hands

We are the betrayers. 

A DROP OF PAIN







The claws of the emotions dig deeper into my heart

I gasp for air as i drown in the quicksand of pain

My arms extented outwards

With a hope that someone will pull me 

But my soul knows its empty out there

A vast loneliness lingers on

My chest is heavy

I cant breath

My eyes are sore

Its an apocalypse within 

The dreams abolished

And all hopes dead.


3 am thoughts

I want to wake up to a virus free world,
Where visiting the sick is a gesture normal.
Where schools stay open and so does the park.
Where hugs and handshakes are no more so dark.
I want the streets to be brimming with life,
I want the woe to no longer thrive. 
When children visit their grandparents again,
When kisses from loved ones are no more a bane.
A world where friends plan to hang out often,
A world where events are not forbidden. 
The long gone husband gets back to his spouse,
The stranded forlorns come back to their house. 
The waiting mother reconciles with her son,
Let the world be blessed, the ailment be gone.
Where the dying can hold some bereaving hands,
And lifeless bodies aren’t dumped on barren lands.
Where last rites are performed with respect and care
  May blissful smiles be a sight everywhere.
I want to wake up to a world full of peace. 
I want to wake up and again feel the ease. 
I want to wake up and see the world has healed.
May health be for all, may futures be sealed.
Amen.
