How many nightingales should die to make you smile? The first and the last icon I see when I close my eyes The reflection of my desire has the taste of hell I tried hard to neglect it but it became my fate She… a swan flying free in the never-ending sky See… somewhere deep within her abides happiness, joy, laughter and love See… my shards carried by the wind, nothing remained And she was gifted with immence grace… I, in a reverie state, walking on a road heading to nowhere I, confused and lifeless, a ghost, a haunted mind A breached soul, I, full of expectation, And I hope to meet… Those eyes that pleasantly remained in my thought, Those perfectly shaped shades, Those ebony marbles that tint my lament I shall never forget

Her (A dedication)...part IV
A heart is melting in this emotional void Someday I wish to reach this sanative fountain… But still it seems well shrouded by eternal fog Wreathed in ethereal cold Alas! Satisfaction is not what love expects to find in the end of its journey Behold! A silver lake of crystal waters In the middle stands this fairy princess Bathed in the light of heavens My breath faded and I felt like floating in the air Body numb, soul torn apart, I wish to pass away Heart beating faster I caught in agony’s dead embrace Adrenaline increasing, a heavy burden to carry I met the flow; it’s burning me, unbearable pain The dream turns to nightmare and I am lost! She… the daughter of the manic tempest and the ocean serene She… in a rainbow gown weaved by the clouds She… the pale rose blossomed in a twilight time So… profound are the feelings that I can’t express

Her (A dedication)...part III
She… the gentle whisper of the northern wind She… that trapped the sunbeams of an autumn morning in her hair She… that her lips give birth to the most sublime See… her dancing like a crazy flame in the fields of purity She… a statue cold, forged from the earth’s warm palette Seek… her, great struggle, though all efforts failed So… there is no logic, gone forever, lost! And suddenly came the time that I had to face things that I avoided my whole life I am not sure anymore what to expect in the end The journey seems long and the dismal clouds above diminish my last drop of courage I went to all lengths to meet this projected beauty Beauty that once was mirrored in my weary eyes Eyes that desperately hunger for remedy

Her (A dedication)...part II
How fair is it to deprive the world of its wildest flower? I just don’t know! How should I? I may be wrong! A flower that retains the dew of dawn, a symbol of youth and springtide The fountain from where the vivid colors rise Now the last ship has sailed, seeking the meridian of hope, I heard that hope is the last thing that dies when everything seems lost, But unfortunately it dies, leaving us numb- oh try to show sympathy! Through smoke appeared her sparkling eyes I tried to envision the beauty… But my dreams are caged in an amber crust How could I endure to inhale her light? Oh! Lord please give me strength! As an image divine sprang forth from the moon, A dim light surrounded her and I fought hard nay to stare…

Her (A dedication)...part I
From Men to Men Awake! The indignation is gathering... At the borders a terrible Storm, Awaiting to break Woe to thee... From the ashes, A national tragedy rises Dead emotions The spirit of seclusion Shadow ...And an age Dark! Dead voices carried by a wind frozen Heavy breathing as we approach Agony's Harbour And shall we inherit the loss? Shall our journey end? The song remains unheard Our efforts endless Thus we enter the flood But the Wilderness is Gathering... Still!

A Freedom Uncertain
Forsaken be the last tears As we’re heading for tomorrow We wished to stay forever in yesterday Consumed in our desperate thoughts And once vivid pictures in our minds Somehow will forever fade by the time What we believed of disaster changed And took a form of a greater tragedy The voices that raised high to prevent, Now choke in front of the loss unfair But the eyes remain still wet Forsaken be the last tears Oh! Moments before desperation I beg thee in infinity forever to remain Never to come back, I silently pray Repelled be thy works of horror And if the stride of time ends, Who shows that really cares? Forsaken be the last tears Youth once again withered, departed Flickered but in the end went off Dwindled away to unknown ways Life stumbled and surrendered And we still count the numbers But we loose the meanings Forsaken be the last tears The grand opus of our age I wish I couldn’t understand And if spring once meant renaissance Now just became a synonym of loss And siren’s voice reminds our flaws Suddenly we’ve lost control Forsaken be the last tears

Forsaken Be the Last Tears...
I thought there were no words profound I thought there was lack of composure And all the expressions already used I thought there was blank bitterness I thought there was no cohesion at all To derelict… When I numbly stare to the flickering light When I try to read the signs And a motionless state of mental panic When I wait for a call in apathy When I feel like drowning To derelict… I capture images of grace A solemn kind of matter A ravishing twist in the chime Feels like flying above a dream And when I stare in a dark heart Then dark surrounds, embracing me To derelict… The ripples of a silk gown The delicate maelstrom inside us And the sigh of heartbeats The answers that we seek The mesmerizing sound of entropy To derelict… Then in downfall you reign Then heaven is all around And follows a forlorn wish Then it feels like a whisper Then it all subsides To derelict… To the thorns on our side To the grim smiles And to the emptier still To you and me To derelict…

To Derelict...
Standing there, gazing Keeping patience in contrast Adjust the lines beyond black Stretching outward the fingers Sensing unable to touch Feel Remain A meaningless era Frozen inside a halo aflame Moving sideways Humming to correlate The wonder, the loss Stochastic patterns formless Kneel under pressure Speak Yearn Silencing violent acts Cloudburst born in a chest Fathomless   In this shapeless pool Trying not to drown This level’s rising higher A momentary constraint Reach Listen Eyes connected to heart Inundation betwixt and between Forward and way ahead Deafening voices alarming No traces left to fabricate A story that needs to be told Jostling away the innuendos Grieve Gone Trembling hands betray A gale that builds discomposure up Why don’t you ever turn? Why don’t you ever look back?
