I have nothing much to say today and so I thought I will write a poem and here you go.. I have nothing to say today Seems all have been told Not by me, but someone else before me For my mind is silent and relaxed today I sometimes wonder why I should write Though I can still sound them out What difference does it … Continue reading Always be a poet, Even in prose
To quote for you I browsed my book of poetry, For a verse that would fill your heart and eye, The verses meant a lot to those who wrote And for that special person for whom they wrote But for you I wanted something special in my own little way What my heart feels for you in its own special way. It’s what you mean … Continue reading Love lost and found
When homes are burned by ignorant sparks Man made gods raise swords and dance When tears turn vapor with every cry Dreams are collected and burned alive When every drop of water from the wells and the rain Is snatched and taxed from even the dying lips When livelihoods are crushed underneath The skyscrapers aim to kiss the heavens When blankets are adorned with bullet … Continue reading Inconvenient Truths
When the stillness of silence looks eternal A melody of truth will come playing in Amidst the silent cries of your shattered world There will be a moment that will beam the truth “As the fairness of grey reveals the purity of age The mind need be fresh with the innocence of life” The mind; a child to the man who bears it Will always … Continue reading The Melody of Truth
Every day during the morning hour As my Laptop Screen screams light The pixels slowly making way for words The news is fed of the world I live All I can grapple in one single hour Stories of people some dark some bright Triumphs, failures, births and murders And among them the truth does thrive I pick a news that is very much local Click … Continue reading My Life In An Hour
The Dampness in the Room had a tricky smell The color of the curtains still bore faint rays of the evening sun Time has stopped but the clock needles struggled to click The fireplace still active, engulfed the remaining pieces of wood Brutality slept chained in a corner and snored Monalisa hung hidden behind the cupboard wall The kettle stopped whistling when the last drop … Continue reading Time
And today again he was awakened from his sleep Just in time to wake me up from my dream And yet again he shined all day Giving me the time to make my day And when all was done he said good bye With a smile I too waved back bye A good job done for ages unknown A good job done always without a … Continue reading Dawn and Shine
Trust me my love; Give your hand in my hand Close your eyes and don’t utter a word Just stand still there and breathe real slow Hear my love; for my heart calls for you I will take you tomorrow to a distant land Far away from this insensitive world And there in a hut all covered with snow I will tell you again how … Continue reading For you with Love
Don’t get drenched when the rain pours down Give it some time and it will all settle down Don’t let the darkness frighten you now Just cheer up and lighten up for now Didn’t you hear the birds sing for you? You are lucky my maiden, love just called you Today the sea is rough and so is your mind Take some time off and … Continue reading Moment of Truth
Where did my Voices go this long? In the depth of an ocean where they can never be heard And then one day the angel of music Crossed that path of land and water And the voices were heard once more again But I often think how I survived this long? Without a weapon against those noises I heard Luxury was mine at the expense … Continue reading My Voice and Me Reborn again
