It was lovely, The sight of a moist skinned sun. I forgot my illusive state And found myself harmonized With the cold but gentle outburst. It's bewildering, These droplets so fragile Yet it calms me down With its cold and subtle presence. I must listen, She says to me Listen to the rhythm The ringing of the earth. She wants to tell me, It's growing faster than time Life, in all its chaos It's growing. I try to capture her But she dissolves Dissolves into my hands , Into the earth Then she disappears. Nothing, ceases. Heavily, she pours down Touches and strokes me. In her cloudy armour She gives me shelter Over my meagre posture. Washes away my desolute land Embraces me Devours me Smell of wet earth. Now I long to touch you, Keep you caged. But you! my Mother, You teach me The earth ,your child, Life transcends Life evolves Life. It changes. And I must just remain, Remain as it is.

Mother's Wisdom
So today, what should I be? A rhetorical being ? Or a pretentious hard worker ? Why not a clown? No, let's just play safe And be no one. Here I go, keeping gentle strides Erasing my steps taken, Oh there! I missed a spot! Let's not leave a trace. Look down, focus on my foot. Focus!! Ah!! My feet looks extremely yellow today! Or is it blue? Will never know. Hey look!! There's that kid from across the street Look down!! How easily I forget!! I should be insignificant today, I should be no one. Planning my moves ahead I slowly get a hang of it Invisible ! Yes that's it! No word spoken, no word said. Transparent! No hair moved, no glimpses taken. I should be still and small Yet I shouldn't lose grip. Doesn't look so hard, at least for the time being , Let me feel myself for now Float in my own shadows Crippled in my own skin. Is there someone knocking? Sorry, I'm no one today! Please come back when I'm someone! I hope they heard, Well doesn't matter , does it? I'm invisible , transparent and insignificant. Let me forget, let it all burn down Ashes, zero. If you call me, I won't wake up now. It has to be tomorrow It has to be a new realm. For I have dissolved into the sands For I have become as sublime as air As pure as distilled silence. In the wake of a thousand rays I do not show up in your eyes For I am gone, for I am throbbing A ghost of your mind.

Disguise
A casual evening of coffee and thoughts made me feel that you were far apart Amongst my words and glances I made you come alive. you breathed ,beneath the layers of my own skin I awoke, to your gentle stride and touch Don't fly away my paradise bird, put me to sleep with your lullaby.

WISH
Lost and frivolous. Seems like I'll never find shore, Floating amidst the blackened sea I see bodies beside me, Dead and rotten Asking me to eat them, Devour them And drink the juice of life's uncertainties. I reach out for the far away boat Waving and pounding with all that's left. As it approached I saw nothing but a weathered soul draped in silk of the finest threads, It's eyes spoke of nothingness, Its ears deaf and mute, Its lips dry and numb, Yet its heart beat with fervor when it met its kin. "Welcome back brother, it's time we unite."

Captive
Where the mind doesnt fear its own existence Where the heart doesnt fear its own pace Where I dont fear my own 'Presence.'

HOME
To love is what I want to do in my life Feel the breeze, touch the rain and smell the ground. Tear out our hearts into the soil, the Mother Earth, From where we were born and return to when we are dead. My silent prayer is that there won't be blood and meat all over the world, rather rain and soil, so that I can feel my skin and walk the earth And still feel my presence. Bind me to this space.

Prayer
Frozen in time, are those gazes you gave me while I passed by, seeing if you knew me. Lost, you were, beneath your being while I clicked away past your seeing. Now, you are far off in your distant land but you will remain in my timeless stand.

FACES AND GAZES
What can I do when I battle within thy self? Looking for things around me To satisfy, to quench my hollow dark soul. Twirling and twisting with everything that I see To know which suits me best As a brand new tiara for every event. This tiara never stays, never glows But I tend to not give it up Despite its disparity. Laughs and cheers often mask me, Thy self, pouring in for more From the best of multitude. I believe in something that the eyes can't see Which I see through your eyes By the yearning of a touch Missed by everyone, Even yourself. I search outside my own It satisfies my flesh and bone, Where will my insides go hunting? When all that's left behind Is a withered feather from my last wing?

Empty Flight
My think box is a small little abode Found in the deepest dungeons Of a place that bears a key, A key that you can give me If you're patient enough to find me.

Think Box
You and me are someone else's, Solemnly vowed together but not forever.. We dwell in minds that's long forgotten but never far away beyond our reach. Smiling, kissing and living as hypocrites, Of a promise that was never made. Staring deep into those eyes, Searching for a pause Only to realize you missed that gaze, That was once yours forever, But nevermore.
