A beautiful lie

A tiresome truth of a generous life
A beautiful lie of a dreamy mind
The restless eyes of a thirsty soul
Seeks for some unsaid answers to unroll

What if it's not a "true"?
Is it a Sin or is it a Virtue?
Am I suppose to live or die?
Why do I sink when they say I can fly?

Let me levitate through all these days and all these nights
Let me invade the destiny and shackle it to be mine

The truth


From the dream 
Across the sand 
From the sea
Between the Land

From the laughter 
Twinned with the tear 
From the distance 
That resides so near 

From the pain 
That tastes so sweet
From the broken wings
Of all flights so deceit 

Calypso seeks exoneration...
A sleep in concealment 
And an eternal separation 
From her deceiving heart..

Melancholy

A midnight melancholy 
Rolling down 
The old cold stream
Hesitant to trust 
The existence 
Of her very own dream

An obscure night dressed in a symphony 
Passing by 
The tale of two lost cities 
Reluctant to believe,
The existence
Of all mortal adversities 

And far across the great seas 
A world awaits to be revealed
To see the first ray of life
To feel the first kiss of her lov...

Forever Spring


I may be deep in my hibernation
Burried under the heap of an old winter
Freezing like the Northwind
Too fragile to be a thick skinned

A strange light peeped across the Horizon
My heart sipped an air of summer
Swimming like a Dolphin
Through the high tides of the ocean

And drop after drop 
The warmth of life 
Was infused through the veins 
Of a forgotten corpse

A Robotic Life

If tomorrow doesnt arrive
At the same pace as yesterday
If tomorrow would look different 
Than how I saw today

If tomorrow doesnt knock
Again at the drooling lids
of my sleepy eyes
If tomorrow doesnt bring
nightmares of strict deadlines

An obscure dawn 
May grab a chance 
to be unvieled from its
mysterious cloak

To be revealed 

As a morning worth a breathe
As a morning wort...

Into the Past

There was a home 
Burried under the memories
A million decades old
There was a story 
Under the ruins 
Of some wounds untold

They keep her awake 
Through the nights 
She has passed
Through these years 

And all the lust 
That's remained in her 
Are the memories
Of some blurred dreams 
Some indistinct figure
That must have been killed
In some wars of the yesteryears

And she fo...

Yours Forever

No it’s not too far

That you have eloped

With your new life

As a string still exists 

Invisible and yet elastic

 

And I may seem

To have ended by now

It may sound creepy

But death cannot touch

Me anyhow

 

Coz I am immune to destruction

I can just grow

And continue to grow in your heart

No matter the distance

No matter you treat me how

failed romance

Venom of love


The darkest of the night it was
And storms were howling from all sides
But she dared to step outside the walls
Coz there was something scarier inside

That snare disguised as love
Was toxic for her life
As the venom passed across her bloodstream
When he kissed her every time 

She paced fast along the road 
To the woods half wrecked by the thunderstorm 
But it was safer than the cozy...

Soulfully beautiful? A myth

Beauty lies in the soul 
Then why Can’t you recognize me
Every time you see my unattractive eyes

Read my mysterious mind

The answer I still seek 
From you every time
Stays as an eternal mystery
Coz what’s around me

Property

 

It doesn’t matter how many years I have passed breathing oxygen 

What matters is my urge to play with the wind
as I oscillate through the swing 

And the force with which I exhale out my laughter

when those voices tickles my senses

And I feel as if I am still roaming around
In the streets of my childhood 

Somewhere looking for those pebbles

short poem

The phone call

 

Staring at the sign that says “Take exit 35 for airport “
I tried to hide my tears behind my acquiescent eye balls
A painful scream was trying to blast my head
But I tried to pass a smile at you instead

 

The cab turned right to stop at the parking lot
You said “I will miss you”, but I could hardly talk
Grasping a heartful of your glance , I turned around
I was scared, how broken ...

Smoke

Have you turned out to be just a thought?

Fading away as you have untied the knot

Why can’t you hear me as I scream?

Why have you stopped coming into my dream?

 

My scream tears my soul apart

I couldn’t realize when did the dusk start

I can feel my heart is now a hollow trough

I have filled it up with dark smoke

 

 

I can see you through these Smokey rings

The dreamt destiny

 

The mysterious mind... 

And its non-decodable thoughts of many-fold... 

Drifted her senses across the horizon.. 

And kept oscillating her between the real and a dream world... 

 

Puzzled and unaware... 

She finally held the hands of her dream...

And got overwhelmed to see all the pebbles on her way... 

Getting dissolved into the ground like a handful of melting cream.....

A sudden gust over the face of my life...

Was a wish I kept treasured for long in my heart..

Was that picture of your sun kissed face half covered with the shadow of your hair...

A lifeless body and a lifeless smile.. 

Clueless what it was all about... 

I thought I have been standing dead for a while... 

 

Just then, you came along... 

Crossed my way... 

And you made me believe...

That I didn't fray... 

 

And that a heaven still exists... 

It can reform me again...

Hidden behind the dark


A rainbow of emotions... 
Is covering the sky of her life... 

Sometimes she feels a tragic downpour across her cheeks... 
Sometimes  there's this happy wind that blows her heart off... 

But she still can't see anything across her pathway.. 
On the other side nothing seems to be clear... 

Stumbling in her journey... 
On pebbles of uncertainty... 
She wonders where's the light...

The colourful rain

 

I had once met a colourful rain.. 

Somewhere in the forgotten pages of my time.. 

And I let it colour my soul from all sides.. 

Probably bcoz I had hoped it to be all mine... 

 

What it did to me,  was a magical stroke.. 

A barren desert was turned into a heart of gold... 

Each drop of its colours poured life into my deprived soul...

Flower's adorning that backyard... 

And it was me standing on the balcony... 

Waiting for someone I know... 

And he would appear soon across those trees of mahagony... 

 

Fragrances and clouds were all I remember... 

And that was when,  my heart starts beating faster.... 

How much I was in love I still wonder... 

Is it just a dream that flashes in my sleep every night ...

Highway 39


It was 2pm of a hot summer day.. 
When  she opened my eyes to show me my way... 
I thought I have been left in the desert all alone... 
And she guided me back to what I knew was my home... 

Driving through the lanes on highway 39..
While trying to get rid of the memories I had left behind... 
I met this friend,  her name was "Life"... 
And somehow I realised I am still alive...

And the snoring world leaning on them...

Mystery behind the scene

 

They think about me...

Who am I?

 

Am I an open book,

Or a mere mythic story...

Am I a dramatic play...

Or just a single page of history...

 

Who am I?

 

They try to live through my life...

By flipping the pages of my past...

They try to penetrate through my mind..

But the more they try, the more I hide...

 

Because I...

The Ray of hope

A usual morning...
And a head full of load...
Somehow she's scared of this light..
Somehow it is the parasite..
That is eating her up hollow inside...

With each tick of the second..
Her heart becomes heavier...
Is it an unknown grief she is trying to hide?...
Or a Revenge that is lingering across her mind...

It's a stranger to her...

And a high drift in the air...
In love with every particle of this wind...

Once again my mind gave birth to a new dream...

Of my stay in the dark...

While your dreams are getting constructed... 
To travel this entire universe.. 
You may see a dark clueless way ahead... 
And your mind will forbid you to traverse... 

Don't get scared... 
It's a mirage... 

Behind which a ray of Hope exists... 
And a world for you to explore.. 


While your belief is growing stronger... 
To clear your heart from all new and old tears...

Few smiles and a handful of memories...

And they stayed forever in the heart to be my life's inspiration...

Distance widened it's territory so much that now...

And let it settle down

While there may be traces of bitter sediments

Love will float all way around...
