PRAYER OF A DYING SOUL

Prayer of a dying soul

Missing words, breaking breath

Losing vision, slowing heartbeat

Still a prayer, to almighty God

Take me to your shadow

Let me be thy slave!

On the way to last journey

With Silence all around yet a fight

Soul to self, who did right

Who lived it or who would regret

And a fear griping around

Would it ever be able to stand in thy sight?

To confront self, to answer own soul

It always kept running away

Carrying loads of sin and lies

That it did day and night, though

Kept on weaving excuses and illusions

Making everything to appear full and bright!

A fight lost long ago

It knows it could never win, and

It knows, has nothing more to lose

But a last chance

Seeking forgiveness, it asks thee, the almighty God

Take me to your shadow

Let me be thy slave!

Shades Of Some Moments!

Shades of some moments

Scattered like a broken glass

Here and there, shining, blinking

Giving a glimpses, various colors

Mysterious faces and shapes

Of near and far, here and there

Squeezing through the sharp edges

Cruel yet tempting!

It reflected a part, absorbed some

In the tranquility of its own shadow

Though breaking sound kept it dwelling

Penetrated its soul, Next moment

When someone walked over it,

Thousand more like him were lying there

 Still carrying that beautiful scattering

Of the light, passing through them

A rainbow perhaps; even bigger!

Rejoice and Claps

It got, when placed on a center piece for display

Under the flickering of a tiny bulb

Filled the blank space with a sense of eternity

Scattering rainbow and images all around

Amazed by its beauty, I kept my hand over it,

Couldn’t escape an urge to feel it, to touch its tempting boundaries

When it pierced through my fingers,

Sucked the blood out of veins,

Bringing me back to reality, instantly

Felt that pain deep inside, Shocked and surprised

I looked at it again; unmoved, silent

It was still carrying that sense of eternity

The rainbow, the beauty, only difference

My blood was a part of that beauty now

Shining at the edges, even more tempting

Like a red lipstick on the lips of

A seductive lady!
