strong winds blows
memories n dreams juxtapose
Why arent you here
I miss you so much dear
As I sat writing you a letter
the pages went helter-skelter
and you appear just out of dreams
Beautiful again, the world seems
Oh what a wonderful surprise
Are you real
My imagination I surmise
my effervesant scream
Not a single word you utter
Encompass me in your embrace
and slowly tilt my face
Me, waiting for a kiss, feelings aflutter
Never knew love can be fatal
Lovers embrace so lethal
sacrificed on atlar of greed
By my lover
A nice surprise indeed!
Surprise
Lady in Green
Behold all the splendor
A lady wee and tender
Winds wishper in her ears
Flowers dance with her
Grasshoppers play violins
Birds sing songs from within
Sun in the sky forgets to shine
Enraptured;
Look at this lady so fine!
Moon reflects her beauty
Stars decorates her hair
Rivers gushes forth
As she laughs in mirth
Behold the lady in green
The queen;Our mother earth
Master of disguise
Mask over a mask, yet another mask
Where in it are you I ask
In corridors of silence
In vales of darkness
Within my heart
Concealment is an art
Your reply, Complete ambivalence
Blinded by your inbuilt rigid walls
My every attempt stalls
To know you better
I end up with a shutter!
Why oh why
why so many insistent lies?
Pretention thousands you devise!
Yes i have many a masquerades
I do not call spade a spade
Webs of words I create
In many ways I evade!
but for worlds I wouldnt trade
This life I self made
Survival is the name of the game
Tell me who is to blame?
Its nature that taught me to hide
And the world to be jekyll and hyde!
And now that I am worldly wise
I get a sobriquet of master of disguise ?!!!
Ripples
Smoldering fire,
simmering desire
Hidden embers
glinting like saphire
Your eyes, an eloquent symphony
Desire and love
Dancing in harmony
Seeking and carassing
me....
Candle lit dinner
Tremulous shimmer
Innocuous innane chatter
Unrestrained laughter
Bubbling emotions
Drowned in wine
Lips to lips
Your hands in mine
Slowly we come closer
Exploring each other
A little more further
I can feel you shudder
Clothes shed unbeknownst
Passions reign,
Reasons cease,
Entwined and lost
Mingling sighs,
jostling thighs
Soaring high
Rising in cresendo
Ripples of pleasure
Ripples of emotions
Ripples in ocean of love
The woman in me
The woman in me
Needs to look
beyond horizons.
Wants to fly
In the golden sky
Embalzoned.
The woman in me..
Needs to dream
In colors of a rainbow
Beauty aglow
Wants to reach
Pinnacles.
The woman in me
Dances in rain
With kids on the lane
Sings with the birds
Songs absurd
Undeterred.
The woman in me
Waiting to utter
Feelings aflutter
Slowly unfolding
secrets multifold
Behold!
The woman in me
Chained....
I dream,
About lands so far
Where butterflies dance in glee
And the air you breathe is free.
I notice that the lid is open,
Stealthily I try to break free
Alas, its just a ruse
Tied to my leg, was a noose.
Accompanied by your roaring laughter,
my frenzied dreams did shatter
For you it was just fun
Playing god.. you were my son....
Fettered, with a piece of thread,
Enslaved future, You, I dread.
soon after you lost interest
in me; left in the box
Chained by you
Choked, chained in death..
I walk alone
On the darkest of darkest night
Scared moon refuses to shine
Every animal every bird bide their time
Waiting.. waiting for light
And I walk alone...
On the treacherous bends
Amidst the crowd, Beneath the shroud
Places where angels or demons
tremble to descend,
Till the world's end
I search for you...
Are you as frantic as me or as alone?
Cold, cold i am ; cold as stone
Wandering through timelessness
Seeking you
Can you hear my clarion call?
My wounded heart's squall !
I beseech you...
On this lonely wintery nox
Lost in inviting nebulous fog
Howling in pain
Going insane..
My red glittering eyes delirious
Crazed and enraged..
I walk alone...
Shadow
Oh ebullient nebulous you
why do you haunt
me, on the empty corners
the untread unwanted
roads that i walk on
Ever clingling
ever lingering
lengthening with time
when memories visit
On desolate cold nights
Where no one is in sight
you provide
Cold comfort
With you around
I am never alone
You my shadow
my clone
my keeper of secrets
you choke me
Alas, nothing can be done
Till death we are bound!
Candle in the wind
Lost and forlorn
Encompassed in darkness
A lonely soul
trying to stay afloat
against the gales of time
survival so vital
destined to glow
While the vile wind blows
am a candle
Harbinger of hope
dispelling gloom
while dreamflowers bloom
Vigilant till the first ray of sun
Spent, my work is done.
A candle in the wind...
P.S; Not really satisfied by this.....
Graceful, beautiful,
Cold within , yet very hot
in a perpetual cycle caught
Not once help sought
Very delicate yet so strong
hanging there since long
flickering yet burning
Bright,
Giving light
smothered by troubles, copes
Clinging to the last hope
surviving the lifestorm
a candle by the window
Despite the wind, brightly aglow
Life
Self indulgent lies
words that defies
Encapsulated
Ineffective Isolated
I plead clemency
A never ending odessy
Life
With many a guise
Me
Thousands of accusations
quadrapuled confusions
Love hate guilt
Into unresloved mess,
Enmeshed
Am depressed
Embittered dismal
looking for approval
Lost
empty corridors
non existent lore
echoing silence
unrelenting vigilance
suspended in time
no reason no rhyme
Surrender
P.S : I know this theme is just too traditional.. and yet I find it quaintly romantic...
Attuned to the nightly croon
Witnessed by the luminous moon
Feelings beserk , thoughts unsaid
Trustingly with you I tread
Amidst nudges and knowing glances
Accompanied by frenzied dances
Bedecked with jewels, clothes so fine
Shyness, Heady like a wine
Forgotten past beholden future
My beauty my charm.. my coaxing allure
For you,
On the virgin bed
With bowed head
In all my splendor
In your arms, I surrender
Desperado!
PS: I am not ashamed of the fact that this poem is completely influenced by the eagles song " Desperaado" [:D]
Oh Desperado
How long will you run
From reality for fun?
Quit.. Quit this bravado
Oh desperado
Back there you have left
A wee girl so bereft.
How can you be incommunicando?
Its time to face.
Life is not race
Think of that lace
Go back .. go back to that place.
Fighting demons
Of your past.
Do not lose...
Love that will last
Forget.. forget the el durado
Oh desperado...
Quit quit this bravado..
Forget the el durado!!
Weathered charm....
Countless rivulets
of kindness
Wrinkles...
A jewel that tinkles
A heart of gold.
A smile that holds
many stories untold.
With a child in her arm
bosom.. moist and warm
Ah a weathered charm
Insanely love
"Dont come near me
Can't u see?
you will burn
Shun me shun!"
Flame said.
" embrace me hon
Feel the need
Gimme the fatal kiss..
Feel the bliss"
Said the moth.
"Insanely love you've got
i cant do it i love u a lot
How can i think of the effect
When nothing of you will be left"
Flame wailed.
"Nah dear dont b sad
There r many more "moths" to be had
I wont disappear but in you
This is my love.. this is my due"
Moth persisted.
"If that is your wish, come on be with me
Let my fate
Be to wait.. to b lonely
You will get your glory..
coz you see
With you.. in love I happen to be.."
Flame said with arms wide open.
Insanely love..
Or limitless love.
I do not know
All I see is a writing moth
In arms of flame caught.
Afterglow
golden hue, birds few
Passion replete
Deep blush, Feelings rush
In the afterglow
Languid and mellow
Broken dreams
Innocent wee little gal
Playing with her pal
With bucket and scoop
And shoulders adroop
Oblivious to sun
Having lotsa fun
Complete with the tassle
Voila.. a sand castle
Soon the tide rises
We have no surprises
Poof goes the sand
Labor of little hands
Broken hearts,
broken dreams
Whom to blame
whose is this scheme?
I wanna break free
anguished expressions
shattered illusions
I wanna break free
Broken dreams
moody extremes
I wanna break free
tormented feelings
regimented thoughts
I wanna break free
soffocated fettered
words unuttered
I wanna break free
unfinshed unresolved
supressed before evolved
I wanna break free
uninhibited unshackled
Everyone I would rackle
Each danger I would tackle
I will break free
Echoes of silence
A silent scream
A bad dream..
nightmare
Wake me up
Some one dare
Spare me.. spare!
Everytime i remember
that touch that smell
The day i experienced hell
my cross to bear
All my life
My death knell
My tortured sigh
someone hear in silence
my helplessness
As i laid that night
Silence echoes my fight
my plight!
Silence echoes
Scot free, he walks away
echoes till this day
Silence echoes
My lost innocence
At nights in dreams ..
Night, witness to my pain
Driving me insane
within my heart...
Silence echoes,
My silent scream
my broken dreams..
Silence echoes....
More than words.....
The way you touch
Tells me so much
much more than
Your words even
I know you are shy
I know you try
I know I see
But you dont need to honey
Read my eyes
Hear my breath
We dont need words
We love each other till death
everytime we hold hands
Every time we stand
Togather against the world
Words we can't afford
For feelings that means
More than words
How can we containthis feeling
which no one can attain
Do not try dear do not say
Let you heart do the work today
More than words
more than life
more than dreams
more than death even
Our feelings dear,
Our love is all i believe in
You , is all i believe in
More than words
More than words.............
All the way!
Walk on honey
Take that one step more
Do not quit now
Move for the one you adore
I wait
Since eternity
For you
Oh mon diu!
Do not be scared
Do not walk away
For your love.. you dream
Walk all the way
Over come
all the dangers
Stretch yourself to zenith
Walk wid strangers
Come to me honey
To the lands so sunny
I am waiting
Come all the way
Come and take me
In your arms
all my charms
Are for you.. come n see
Come my love
My darling
Be daring!
Come all the way!
All the way..
Come come and say
I love you
But first come..
before i die
Come all the way
Summer winds
Unbridled frolicking
Pospscicle streaking
faces happy
In that summer :-)
Me toddling behind
where ever you went
immersed and entwined
togather.. where the river bent
That summer and many other like it
hiding in the loft.. playing hide n seek
I remember
The scent of you
in that smokey magical afternoon
As the wind passed by
Summer winds
witness to the lost innocence
Times when we were friends
summer winds
caressing me
Brings back heady romance.
Brings back ..
you
Wave
On this lonely misty night
Happy in its own sojorn
Not caring for the forlorn
Slowly rising in crescendo
Down it comes crashing
Leaving behind
Passion.. feelings unbridled
Waves, of days bygone
While my heart yearns...
For respite,yet another rises
prisoner heart, Of its own device.
Damn you! begone!
Thoughts
Empty thoughts twirls
Within
Chilled to bone
Not alone
And yet derelict
Waiting..
As life flowers opens
its whorls..
Stormy weather!
trees swaying
dancing in fury
Hand of god visible truly..
swishing wind scaring.. all who have sinned
The church bells go crazy
The vision goes hazy
With our eyes skinned
We look at thee
Oh lord in your glory
Forgive our follies
The birds in tandem
Raise their voices.
Accompaniment to the storm
Various noises
The wind changes direction
calm... time for regeneration
The rains stop
Silence pin drop
Then the clamor rise again
The fear was all in vain
As the new shoot rises..
The world rejoices...
New beginnings....
Life as it is
Festered wid dis-ease
Struggling to be
Someone i was not
Tossing and turning
crazy dreams... escaping
Ambitions burning
from within.. I got caught
Then i saw an angelic bug
Opening the cacoon with a shrug
No longer fettered
free and finally happy
This is what urged me to change
take control and arrange
To break free
To be a new me
So cheers to new beginnings
And many winnings
Come whatever may..
Cheers to living
