Princess’s Dream!

Princess’s Dream!


Kohl In her eyes, she sketched herself

Rejoiced the blank canvas of heart

Painted it with her mysterious expressions

Resembled to horizon of those lonely evenings

 

An invitation they flare to an unknown land

Of vast blue sea and golden sands

To walk along shores, you must ask permission

If not, they might tear you away

 

O dear! Dare not I say, keep your eyes down

You may be held guilty of stealing her precious crown

One, which she keeps safe in backyard of her smile

Might lose it to; must not, even if showed upon shade of love awhile

 

She waits for her prince, gently smiling

Will take her away one day, on his golden horse flying!

Being a Traveler!

Being a Traveler!

 

Of what I dream, of what I fear

I walk miles and miles,

Hiding sometimes in hollow dark corners

Smelling of those smiles and tear

 

Search for life in the ruins of light

And for devil in naked darkness of night

Search some in the vicinity of dusk and dawn

Search continues and the soul’s plight

 

Moment of love, moment of hate

Moment of joy, moment of sad fate

Moment that stitches some wounds

Moment that brings some nightmare back

 

Being uncertain, yet to have faith

Left blindfolded, still to take another step

Lost it remains for long and insane

Yet to walk another mile, must be carrying a burning flame

 

Whom does it long for, what does it wish

What does scare it, what could bring it bliss

Unknown is the journey, as where to reach

Have a heart though, that vow to keep exploring still.

Inception!

Inception!

 

I did not yearn to have you remain close

Neither by my side, nor forever tied to my toes

All I wanted is to have you in my memories

Some moments together, to live a life in those

 

I missed to have those chit-chats anymore

To just sit beside, and watch you galore

And fade away in the tick-tock of that wall-clock

As you turn pages of that book, sitting on the floor

 

I never wished to be part of your shining laughter

Neither to your sadness, nor any other chapter, no, never!

I just wished to be that water droplet hanging by your hair

One that fell upon you, when you danced in the rain, so prettier!

 

Time flew past, life going by, it’s all afresh, and it’s all here

We are no more together, and moments of no more tear

Strangers again, only if someone could sew

Those torn pages of the book, you gifted me last year.

Independence Day!

Here comes that day again
Day of independence, day of liberty
Day of regaining its lost sovereignty...
Day when we swore to bring back that lost glory

To fall from position of world leader
To fall apart of those invasion and shear
To be ripped in pieces for mere gold and diamonds here
To be ridiculed by them all for being kind and peaceful teacher

To get raped and robbed again and again
To get killed in cold blood again and again
To get butchered for standing to its values
To get kicked and laughed, as it did bear; for ages, all that pain

But enough was enough; it was not a mere sheep
It gave birth to warriors and brave hearts too,
Who vowed to break free those shackles without fear
And to rewrite that story of history with the ink of its blood and golden tear

And today, it has been years of all that
Things have changed, and it’s all much better
True, we still have several wounds to fill, many holes to fill
But, our beauty lies in our persistence and determination
Our desire to keep moving forward despite glitches and hitches…!

A Smiley!

 

A Smiley!

 

To walk through fire, to stand by storm

To stay upright when being forced down

To not loose calm amidst rage around

To keep moving forward by the lost ground

 

One needs courage, and guts to rise up

To show one’s choice to accept and suffer

Find its way through the darkened corner

Let own blood melt those chains tangled

 

Suffer, what you must, it will do good

Believe yourself, keep your head high

Smoke some joint and dance by every dawn

Welcome another day with no sign of malign

 

Let yourself burn, let self melt

Let it make you shine like gold, strong as brick

Let it drive you away and distant

Let yourself discover a dreamland everyday

 

Catch a butterfly, and sing it a song

Smile though the heave of pain like insane

No wonder you will come out afresh

Brave like a lion, and roaring in a flash

 

We live for someone, we die for some

We may find ourselves lost at some moment

But, life is a journey, we must accomplish

And walk past waving our hand high as we finish...

A Sinner!

A Sinner!

 

I am a sinner

Sins hidden under my

Good looks, make-ups

Wrap of my smile

I manipulate people

Make them believe

I talk about god

Poison hidden under my tongue

And, lips painted of holy words

Eyes raping them, robbing them

Of their treasure, their worth

I console them in my embrace

Thrones hidden under my skin

Who suck the blood out of their veins

While they await to be freed from their sin

I make them mine

I walk over their flowers

They planted, to gift god

I crush them under my feet

Food for god, made of their flesh

They feel lucky, sacrifice is important

I bring them close to enlightenment

And, keep their heads as souvenir 

I collect sins

I make a tomb of sins

Bricks made of innocents bones

Walls painted of their blood

Decorated of their dead eyes, hopeful eyes

They will look upon me

In the darkness of night

While I sleep on the bed of those dead souls

I am their savior

Lost love!

Lost love!

 

A ghost, a human

Who defines me?

You or your smile

Your hate, your desire

I float, I laugh

May be few seconds left

On that clock, ruined

Lead all to a new world, follow…!

As you kept watching above

To those stars, planets

One which communicated, or tried

One which could, still in future

As I wait, as I die        

I smell of her perfume

I see her smiling

I vanish through, as she sleeps

In her dreams…
