Out From The Grave
Seema Aug 2017
Nails in my cofin
Rusted from within
A bearing hatred
Dissolved with my sin
You planted flowers
On my isolated silent grave
Then sat for hours
Telling me to be brave
The flowers dripped ink
Which you poured from above
The ink sipped to sink
Into my skin, to paint your love
In my veins, a new blood
A new me, began to merge
My body swaying in ink flood
O' master, I am ready to serve!

Crumbling
Seema Aug 2017
Igniting, amber glows
After the raging fire
Hushly the wind blows
Calming my desire
Rain, of tears showers
To put out the smoke
Wilting, dead flowers
My life seems a joke
Nothing is complete
The ties are all broken
Silent wip, lashes at feet
The venom words spoken
Lose of control over mind
Blank vision, blurry mask
Loved ones grew unkind
What more can I ask?

©sim
Some people cannot control their tongue. They spit words like venom, so hurtful.

I Was Born Human
Seema Aug 2017
Across the field
Lay the shield
Of a beheaded
Soldier...
Stuck in the mud
Near a burnt truck
Stood a victories
Sword...
Soaked in red
A few lay dead
Others fled for
Life...
It was war, played
Out of racist hate
Now it's too late
Again...
The sunset seems ******
Dark skies, so cloudy
The atmos looks rowdy
Tonight...
A final racist battle
Maybe to settle
But I hear metal
Rattling...
I was born human first
Before peoples request
On race and religion
Quest...
**** or be killed
A new religion, filled
The society to yield
Acceptance!

©sim
"I was born human"- I wrote this poem after I saw a news documentary where people **** other race in reach for superiority. It made me sick as I watched how these humans are worse than animals, butchering their own kind..so I just came up with this poem.
Coz societies in most countries....people try to gain power by killing....
So, even thou I belong to other race in a dominant society...I am a human first.....then I am any other like a Hindu, Muslim or native.

Love And Religion
Seema Aug 2017
Love has no religion
Nor does hate
But in every society
There is a rate

The superiority of faith
Over the many gods
All who reside in heaven
As we live between odds

If only our blood color
Reflected our skin
Then the religion we belong
Would be easy to pin

The devil in our heads
Plays the tune of hatred
And makes us believe
In other demeaning sacred

Fooling us to the extent
Where we **** each other
Regardless of who they are
Either it's the mother or father

A complete brainwashed
From the faith of love
While rotting in the prison
Then we hail our prayers above...

©sim
Hate no one, love everyone.
  I have not criticized any religion in my poem. Neither do I condemn or degrade any beliefs. I wrote this piece "Love and Religion" just like any other poem I write. It is nothing to do with my personal belief. If my poem somehow gave you a negative insight, then I am truly sorry. Thanks!

Vox Populi
Seema Aug 2017
When "Ayenik" the hermit  
Travelled towards the pilgrimage,
Heard he nothing except the praises
Of gods and other sages.

However, the praises got silent,
As he neared another townshire;
There, people were only talking,
Of money and their desire.

For the hand that writes this poem;
Every town and city marks its own;
Where materialities are famous,
And god is unknown!

Everything's Possible
Seema Aug 2017
Let those tears fall
It is not the end
Construct another wall
Build a castle instead

Smile for awhile
And breath the breeze
Breakthrough the piles
Don't hold that sneeze

Let it go, let it blow
Live your life as you want
Live with past or be slow
But never say, you can't!

Frozen Jewel
Seema Aug 2017
She was her fathers jewel
But,
The little angel didn't know
Her father was already martyred
In a frontline, service war
Before arrival of the trains
She would pick fresh flowers, in the cold
Just incase, to welcome her dad
Putting her sorrowful life on hold
Waiting, oneday her father would come,
Her distressed mother would comfort her
To make her understand that he was no more
Then,
One night she nagged to welcome the train
It was almost midnight and heavy snowing
Her mother begged, the little jewel not to go
But she was helpless knowing
The little Angel would go,
Seeing tears in the little ones eyes
She allowed her, as she watched over
The clock stroke midnight and the train arrived
Poor mother fell asleep by the louver
A soldier welcomed the little ******* the train
With enlightening joy and flowers in her hands
She greeted her father, her hero with kind
Her mother woke suddenly to see no train at stand
It was snowing heavily, as she ran for her angels hand
Holding onto the frozen flowers with fears
Her little angel, sat there, like a mannequin
With frosted tears...Dead!

Ark, Will There Be?
Seema Aug 2017
When all the lights will die
From this planetary universe
Of course you'll wonder, why?
This darkness can't go inverse
Isn't the above lines wrong?
Imbalance of light and dark
Would bring chaos for long
Destructions will leave its mark
Wondering...
Will there be another 'Noahs' ark?
This time or next...

Watchful Lane
Seema Aug 2017
Driving down the watchful lane
My car choked, so I stopped at a scene
A false image or a dying shadow
Sitting by the window, a surreal widow
Smiling from the mirrors reflection
An awkward feint delusional reaction
Upon the quivered candle flames
Flickers her dark lustful eyes in claims
Maybe it's an illusion or a trick of my mind
As my body has fallen, weak by this find
This place seems, full of buried secrets
Along the sound of wild crickets
The horror adventure plays within my sight
Ghosts hovering everywhere in white
I closed my eyes to silence my mind
To weave off the horrific sight of all kind
But something grabbed my leg from behind
My voice echoed to beg and I began to unwind
Yet another mystery buried underground
My car engine raced all of a sudden,
I shook off the scenery, and turned around...

Seema Aug 2017
I've got a handsome brother
Like I have, you may have to
Each day, I weave off his negativity
By praying to god sincerely
His life stays longevous  
Never shall he get upset unnecessarily
This thread, is a protection virtue
Never get upset, this heart gets upset to
Whether am far or near
Don't you forget this lives praxis
Brought 'rakhi' with love to tie on your wrist
Brought you lots of sweets and gifts
Let me embrace your forehead with sandlewood powder and wave this lighted lamp upon you
Tying this thread and serving these sweets
This day comes once a year with treats
My brother, remaining years of my life
I wish, be bestowed upon you...

My Beautiful Painting
Seema Aug 2017
My beautiful tulip flowers
Red, blue, yellow and white
Tucked in a flower vase
That I've placed within my sight

Away in some floral valley
In my dream, that's not true
I am picking lovely flowers
The ones that I just drew

So bright, the petals shine
Amongst the desperate weeds
Butterflies enjoy the nectar
And gather their feeds

A sudden gist, broke my dream
With a brush, I began to paint
A vase, with my favorite tulips
That looks kind of a quaint...

Her Flowery Grave
Seema Aug 2017
He was a lonely boy
Always fixing a broken toy
Dirt covered his face
Old shoes with no lace
But he wore them today
It was his sisters birthday
And he was fixing her doll
Someone gave a sudden call
Which left him in tears
Then came his darkest fears
His mother's voice shouting
Crying, his sense undoubting
He pretended not to hear
It was a special day of the year
He was going to see her
At the foot of the hill, afar
She lived there alone
In the cold, under a tombstone
Last year, he planted flowers
When bloomed, he sat there for hours
Today he's got her another gift
Her favorite doll that came adrift
By a narrow creek nearby
He always wondered why
His beautiful sister got taken away
Far to be buried, where she lay
Alone, along the plain meadows
Where lived now the shadows
Of those dead, buried in ground
Where huge raintrees surround
He picked her favorite flowers
And walked towards the stone towers
There a flowery grave waited
To be visited and weeded
After done with clearing
He sat there grieving and tearing
Telling her stories of his life
How often he's threatened with a knife
But with a smile, he promised to be brave
As he curled up, beside his sisters grave...

The Draped Shroud
Seema Aug 2017
Draped and wrapped
In white cotton sheet
The decaying corpses
With one missing feet

Lifted and shifted
To the old faint morg
Lugubrious night calls
On the thick creeping fog

Hooded cultivist carry on
Their usual cults and rituals
Missing persons peak the list
No one seems spiritual

The night turns insidious
To the loitering lone beings
Amputated parts in shroud
Left to be seen...

Free Flow
Seema Aug 2017
...and it seemed like his eyes, were sipping away my silent pain. from where i stood, he was just few paces away from me. i got drawn towards his dreamy mystical eyes like being charmed by a spell charmer. it felt so pure, embraced with grace, as i took my steps, my crazy heart danced to race. an invisible thread wrapped around me, was being pulled by him. his smile and that sign of care on his face, binded my feelings together, to be poured before him. he held my hand and led me to a mesmerizing sight, and everything felt so right.
his philosophical thoughts and undoubted bold talks, opened the doors and windows of my clouded mind and timid heart. he said he admired me from the start, the time he first saw me. we talked till the sun hid itself in the deep horizon. so easily shared everything that i never thought could be understood and told to anyone. i thought for once god stopped making such masterpieces but he was no dream, he was and is a reality of my life...

Stuck
Seema Aug 2017
As I read through the mysteries
And the sense of mythical terror
My pupil widens, when suddenly
The page unfolds, matrix error

The lights, slightly flicker
And I feel those scary chills
The goosebumps popping
And a hallucination, of blood spills

The writings on the article,
Would rearrange somehow
Living me terrified, and thus
Confusing me with the then--and now

Wondering if it may be contagious
Or I may be just overthinking
But alone in this marooned house
I just keep sinking

Shaking off the delusional mirage
I finally find, myself safe at task
But then who am I and who is that, I --
That is wearing my shadow mask

Who is real? O' this is not true
If she is me, then where am I?
Who is she? Just like me
But her, everything seems a lie

Am I stuck in an invisible world,
****** in, a whirlpool of images
There seems no way out
My mind amplifying on edges

A hologram perhaps an illusion
Sapping my memories into the new me
A robotic machine or a demon
I don't know, who holds the key

Everything I see, is a reflection
Of me and my life, present and past
Nothing makes sense at all
Just, my name was,
                                  read out,
                                                  last!

A Prime Witness
Seema Aug 2017
The singing of chimes
Depicts an untold story
I've not committed a crime
But am still, very sorry

I have a lot to tell
But this place,
has a weary clime
Can you wait, till am well
I sure, witnessed a crime


"Detective", I'll spit out all
Just let me breathe for a while-
Tomorrow I'll give you a call
And then we'll go to "Half Mile"


"The crime scene", Detective
At the corner of the Half Mile road
I am not being introspective
But two guys were carrying a load

They asked me for a lift
But I grew suspicious
So I took a race through swift
Coz they looked insidious

With the head flash light
I could see something dripping
They dropped it and ran for their plight
On the other side, running and tripping

I gathered courage and went to look
My breath weakened, suddenly
And what I saw, made me puke
A body or two smeared bloodily

I then ran back to my car and sped
Next morning, I read the horrible news
And became more scared
I should've reported without any excuse

That's all I know, "Officer Sam"
But I do remember their face
I will definitely help to nail them
And be a witness, in this case...

Demon In Disguise
Seema Aug 2017
Led by a strange shepherd flock
In a small village near a creek
Reached at sharp twelve o'clock
With a look of a daring freak

It was one of the darkest nights
A few dim lights shown far away
It was a silent moonless sight
O' t'is what a tiresome day

Listening to the howls of the wild
I sat on a rock, to wait for daylight
A faint cry of an innocent child
Kept me awake all through the night

A cursed village some say
Located at the foot of a mountain
I hope it's not the one where I've to stay
But that one was near a fountain

'Once I get a solution to end that demon
I will have to continue this journey
To save our children and women
From the evil one, whose disciples are many'

Cold crawling up my frail veins
Like a slithering tree snake
Fog gathering like luminous pain
Over a distant lake


'How long will my village people suffer
From that ruthless false god
He is an evil demon bluffer
Who preaches false word'


'Behind the preaching, he kills for blood
A creature of the dark night
He hides the bones in the mud
Out of everyones sight'

The shepherds boy disappeared
Among the patrols on our way
Hours after he appeared
The darkness slowly faded away

The rocky path led to the old hermit
Who poses magical healing powers
It was hard to get an entry permit
But then welcomed after few hours

The hermit knew my situation
And began his weird chant
He gave me a magical potion
Which was my main want

Now to sprinkle this potion on the demon
And send him back, where he came from
Not another child or women
Shall get victimized in this wrathful storm...

She Burrowed Her Head
Seema Aug 2017
I began struggling and drowning
But was soon pulled out,
From the massive gigantic crowd
That suddenly came about

A stampede of leggy creatures
From all regional kind
Running for their precious lives
That was about to wind

The land was sinking in a giant tidal wave
Big hell tunnels burst from underground
People screaming, most got killed
A mournful atmosphere came around

End of the world, is it to be?
Seems nature has extended its wrathful claws
No more pity or mercy be shown
Washed away like ants, on the ****** shores

Where is all the love? Where is all the hate?
Gone by my side, is just another dead
We are left to drown, and witness our death
As mother nature is burrowing her heavy head

An unplanned task, carried without mercy
All wrapped and ****** in the devils funnel
Priests, saints, innocents and criminals
Like being filtered through the hells tunnel

I am with many, as death has come upon
A flick of change has completely aced
With rotten flesh and distorted bodies
Among them, I am also...misplaced.

Mud Cake
Seema Aug 2017
The sunflower plant hung low
As if on the verge of its death
The soil was moist and raw
Yet the plants seemed, out of breath

The glow of the flowers vanished
And the green leaves wilted
Other flowers followed the same
And with this change, all silted

The sun baked the soil like a mud cake
As watered plants lose their motion
Today they seem to be sick to smile,
A greenhouse, maybe an opt solution?

Rose Within Pages
Seema Aug 2017
I was, to be given to someone
As a symbol of true love
She was a studious one
And he was an average above

He wanted to give her a rose
But, was doubtful and scared
So he wrote her a nice prose
With an ink of color red

Library was her favorite place
So he placed the prose with a rose
And tied it with a thin threaded lace
As she glanced him with a pose

He placed a note and the flower
In her favorite research book
And waited her for an hour
But she was already in a hook

This broke his innocent heart
As he thought his love was blooming
Coz she was alone from the start
Unfortunately, he kept on assuming

The old books got replaced, over the week
As all got outshelved in the storage
No hands could reach and seek
This special book in the wreckage

My fragrance and youth, left me
And sank within the heavy pages
I am withered old, for no one to see
Stuck with the unread prose, for ages

Burnt in a sudden fire
Few books, behind and around
None was this books buyer
It just laid aimless on the dusty ground

A dead rose, covered within sheets
Hoping to be found oneday
If this book gets sold on the streets
Someone might have a special day...

Wandering Soul
Seema Jul 2017
An old hollow bowl
Inside it, a dead owl
Filled with charcoal
Buried in a hole
Under the light pole
On the crossroads
Opposite the graves
Near the witches dome
Where believed,
The dark spirits roam
I know this, coz I am,
A wandering soul
Others, the witches stole
I am a carefree witness
I saw, what he did
I saw what all he buried
I also saw the body he hid
And he thought,
Nobody saw his deeds
Planting a dead owl as a seed
Like some secret treasure
That no one can find
I looked closely
He buried, jewels of all kind
He has no idea,
What he had done!
The witch knows it all
Soon it will be his call
My friend, beware
Of the watchful unknown
There's an empty grave
Waiting,
With your name alone!

Outer Appearance
Seema Jul 2017
I have dealt with this before,
This feeling...
I am dealing with it again,
This feeling...

The outer look matters
Rather the taste of inner
The shape and color of a bottle
Looks fancy and appealing
Rather its contents, so bitter

Beauty on face, complexion
So beautiful
Inside a dark, deep infested nest
Ugly and untruthful

Painted figures, expensive makeup
Lucious lips
Pleasing to ones eyes
Caring heart, kind soul, unpleasant appearance
Yet, doubtful cries

Whatever is beautiful, matters!
Regardless to the consequences
Most see the outer appearance and judge
Hardly see the innocent smile,
                            ...of the less fortunate

Judging people by their outer appearance is a disgust. Love yourself and appreciate others how they are.

I am short, he is tall
I am tint, he is fair
He calls me his doll
And handles me with care

He loves me alot
I do to, the same way
He is cool, I am not
Cute couples, people say

Holding hands, walking
Joking, and teasing
Laying on beach, talking
His every word, pleasing

When asleep, he snores
I told him sometime back
Like how the cow moos
Without its pack

I blushed, when he said
I purr, in my sleep
Blanket over my head
He likes to see me sleep

We are adults, yet
It feels like we are teens
In the rain, playing till wet
He says, am his queen

He has a heart of gold
Never discriminated my physique
Together we are growing old
Each moment, fills with magic

Cute couples, together forever
Love in love we always stay
Never leave me ever,
My love, he would always say...

A Quivering Leaf
Seema Jul 2017
The rain pours unsteadily
Like how my tears do
Slowly and swiftly
Turning my days blue

The beats of my heart
Struggles to pace
Leaving me shattered
With a puffed up face

Sitting by the rear window
Glancing at the raindrops
Pouring tears inside
One slit and the blood drops

Slow breaths but still alive
A prescription to pain relief
Has plucked my senses
And refreshed my mind

Gone are the loved ones
As I remember and grief
Accidents happen rapidly
Leaving lives blown,
             like a quivering leaf...

Upon seeing the dazzling eyes
I was transfixed for a while
Were they eyes or two cups of wine
That set ablaze with a killer smile

Do I call them eyes or two doors
Opened to the finest vintage wines
Or is it just part of my daydream
Where her beauty timidly shines

For one moment it all seems real
And in another, an imagination
A true interpretation of a lovable song
Her tresses spread like intoxication  

The statue of this Greek goddess
Full of youth and procreation beauty
Structured with a marble frame
She is known as Aphrodite...

Ruin Of Memories
Seema Jul 2017
She, who hides in the shadows
Wearing several mask on her face
Observe her rigid scaly hands
She lives in a dark lonely place
Away from the wickedness
In her own world of sorrow
Each day she gets near a grave
Doubting if the sun will rise tomorrow
Her eyes, sunken like a dried well
Neither a single drop of tear,
Pours down her wrinkled face
Nor a single sign of worry and fear,
One can ever imagine to trace
It's hard to tell, what weighs more
As my eyes sees her outside pain
Inside must be a ruin of memories
Like a barren land, without rain
She lost everything and everyone
Now she's almost like a living tomb
The landslide during an earthquake
Buried her family in the natures womb
Once lively, full of lifes happiness
One disaster, and everything fell apart
Shocked of being alive and alone
Shattered was her fragile heart...

Sweeping over my naked feet,
Is the gentle waves of the sea
Back and forth it comes to meet,
My locked memories with a key

Teary eyes, sink with thoughts
While listening to the waves, clash
How easily, he untied all the knots
My past seems to bash and flash

Silent lips, yet a beating heart
Feelings of despair pour as tears
As I collect the pieces part by part
My mind taunts, while my heart hears...

Ask the shadow the reasons
Why it doesn't show up these days
This wrenched heart, cannot sleep
In the loneliness of night
Calls for you, then starts to weep

Likhte hi nahi ** mere naseeb
Ek tutta tara, aine mei dekha

Never Lose Hope
Seema Jul 2017
My hands are short
My sight is weak
My legs are crooked
But I can still speak

I may look ugly
As I am not normal
I envy your freedom
But am quite formal

Wearing heavy specs
And seated on a wheelchair
I try out different activities
When time is spare

My life, starts and ends
With the daily medical checks
A rare disease has caught me
Where my skin suddenly cracks

I am thankful for this life
As I see the disgust around
Sympathies come uninvited
Alien eyes tend to surround

I know my span is limited
To see the outside world
But I am kind of high spirited
I'll see it before am called

Situations may be different
Don't lose possibilities and hope
You are not alone in this
Learn to stand and cope...

Seema Jul 2017
I lifted my hands
To sing praise to the lord God
The thunder roared, all
of a sudden, providing
The beats, to my tuneless song

Secrets Untold
Seema Jul 2017
When will these lips utter the words that are buried deep
Silently observing the set out ambience, while summoning these eyes to sleep
Words as such, that can destroy a life or a family as a whole
Torturing the secrets buried deep in the dungeon of my soul
Our love was like a blooming flower, reaching towards the sun
A strange sound, broke the silence, perhaps that, of a gun
Lay someone lifeless, with blood smeared in another room
I never thought things would take me to this drastic doom
My friend shot herself dead with a single gunshot!
Broke our friendship, broke all the promising knot
She fell madly in love with my caring and loving husband
But unfortunately she got multiple rejections, may be that led her to this end
I believe that could be a reason for being gradually insane
No one, except me, could see this undoubted pain
I buried this secret deep in the dungeon of my heart
My friend childishly took her own life to a sudden depart
An untold story yet, exists in me
My partner is the only one who could see
In my eyes, behind the closed doors, the truth unveils
Of a friends love that once mattered, went in a complete fail...

Broken Clay
Seema Jul 2017
I haven't stopped living
After you walked over my world
Despite sharing, caring and giving
Characterless I was called

I must have been madly in love
To have you so close in my heart
Watching the tears pour from above
This became my lifes silent part

Someone is dreaming of, all of this
Controlling an unscripted drama play
Add of spice like love, lust and bliss
Later forget about this broken clay

With burden of committed guilt
Life folds and unfolds many scripts
Until this beauty wrinkles to wilt
My life tries, slips, stumbles and trips

Why R.I.P?
Seema Jul 2017
Fights, terror, bomb blasts
The deafening sirens forever lasts
In the hearts and souls of many
Who confront such hurtful journey
Each day living and dying
Running to save lives, trying
But the inhumane are ******
Polished by government, well toned
How long will this war last?
How many more humans will fast?
With no food or water to feed
The women and children in need
News flash in on different channels
As media handsover the control panels
In the hands of those behind the curtains
Laying out the corrupt media patterns
I often get sad and wonder,
Why should we only "Rest In Peace"
Why can't we all live in Peace too!!

A beggar begs for money
To afford his wants and needs
His helplessness looks funny
To some overgrown weeds
Once he owned so many things
Money became his greatest power
Pride and ego his greedy wings
Soon left him to beg in his last hour
The wise often say,
What goes around comes around
Coz karma has million eyes
It digs your deeds from underground
And makes you pay for your wealthy lies
On the streets, under the trees, over the bridge
His golden birds flew,
Sitting alone, wondering on the ridge
Remembering and recalling how he grew
A wealthy thief, who was unknown
Ripped off the poor with what they had
Now, his karma seems to have shown
Living, yet wishes he was dead...

Solution Winthin
Seema Jul 2017
A blown kiss,
Makes my day
A thrown bliss,
I catch on my way
A word or two,
I utter in reply
That's what I do,
And it's not a lie
At times I smile
Thinking of life
It's been awhile
I guess its a rife
Most people think
Maybe the sameway
But few do sink
Others halt at a bay
I am at a shore
The waves reach my feet
Touches my hearts core
And all my feelings meet,
Within my realm
I plague my emotions
My senses exists to claim
And draws all the solutions
Yet we complain
About our issues
And deliriously proclaim
While wetting tissues
Calm oneself and focus
The answers lies within
Believe in positive forces
And you will finally win...

Seema Jul 2017
"Jack"
((sign))
Yes, "Jill"
What is in that sack?
Nothing "Jill"
Isn't it time to fetch water
Ya, but...... "Jack"
I want to know
It's trash to throw, "Jill"
Then why you climbed up this hill
You could have thrown elsewhere
"Jack", .....Yes "Jill"
You are lying to me
I am not, ..... "Jill"
I felt, I would miss this moment with you
So I forgot to throw this on my way
Sitting here with you...... ((signs))
Open the sack, "Jack"
Why? You don't believe me?
I want to believe you, ....."Jack"
But my eyes wants to see
No!
Why not, ..... "Jack"
Because it will smell
Ofcourse, it will "Jack"
Huh!!!
Yes! The blood is dripping from the sack
What have you done, "Jack"?
((silent signs))
What,..... "Jack"?
It's another ****, isn't it?....isn't it?
Yes,...."Jill"
His the last of the gang, that killed you
Now you can rest in peace, "Jill"
I will just tumble this sack over
Then fetch some water, down the hill
I miss you, "Jill"
Do you miss me to?
Yes, "Jack", but you shouldn't have killed
Why not?, "Jill"
They took my life away
So I took their knives and slittered the same way
As, they did to you...((cries))
I will join you shortly, "Jill"
I will join you shortly...

Death, My Freedom
Seema Jul 2017
Throbbing, humming
My beating heart
Shivering, quivering
Breaking apart
Bleeding, pleading
Tears of mourn
Nagging, begging
Deliberately torn
Sighing, whinning
Clashes of words
Wailing, spilling
Unknown odds
Broken, spoken
Truth and lies
Waken, Forsaken
Unanswered whys
Breathing, Sneezing
Dose of poison
Laying, dying
Illegitimate reason
Laughing, crying
My very own
Carried, buried
Sympathies shown
Sailing, sinking
Death my freedom
Wandering, Walking
In a dark kingdom...
Fiction.
On days when my feelings are down and my lashes drown in tears, that's when my mind wonders and I write what my mind utters and my ink hears :)

Gates (Tanka #14)
Seema Jul 2017
The opened gates of
Heaven, welcomed with showers
But the hell whirlpool
Grabbed me horrifically
Inside an infinite dome

Anxiety Demon
Seema Jul 2017
Lay me down, on a bed of thorns
For the flowers refuse to bloom
Am already mentally paralyzed
My days have turned gloom

Looking out to the sunset
Thinking of drowning my pain
Tears refuse to comfort me
Coz anxiety has grabbed me again

Let lose my demons from within
The torture is way too much
See how my soul twists and turns
As my eyes are closed to watch

******* away, O' King of winds
To the deepest cliff around
Dark, lonesome shores greet
As I plagued myself on the ground...

This is not based on me. Tho, I believe some may face this anxiety attacks daily.

Rain (Tanka #13)

The pitter patter
Melodiously falls on
The old metal roof
Soon a spectrum of colors
Crossed the blue celestial dome

Perry & Pieper
Seema Jul 2017
Perry and Pieper
Friends by far
Perry is a fruit lover
And Pieper is a Viper
Perry picks red cherries
While Pieper offers an apple
Perry bites on a side
As Pieper hisses away
Both happy and merry
Suddenly there's a sway,
The cherry basket falls
As Perry's skin turns dark
From her hand, the apple falls
Death has put a mark
Pieper hisses and hides  
On the apple tree, afar
Perry, perishes aside
Remembering, how Eve
Was offered an apple by
A snake - probably a Viper!
