Silent Sky (Tanka #18)
Seema Jul 2017
Bright yellowish moon,
peaking through the top window.
Trees cast a shadow.
Dancing fireflies decorate,
the silent sky with colors.

Where The Light Shines
Seema Aug 2017
I am right there, where the light shines
Where there is no darkness, just rays of light
Among the greedless vines that lays over
Yet, you can't see me coz it's so bright

I understand the love you have for me
But look, I am standing right by your side
Please don't be upset and cry
Because I'll always be with you, as a guide

Short life, long life who knows death
Am gone, others gone, who may be next
Be strong, console yourself and move on
Some souls are blessed to be the best

Put me to rest now, as my time has faded
The lose memories that float in your mind
Be sure to cherish the moments we had
Yet, who knew death was on a hunt to find

End of all my miseries and unseen sufferings
I am free finally, from this stubborn pain
But you my love, should not fail to live fully
Accept the fact, coz my soul is crying
......with tears of rain

Killer At Lose!
Seema Oct 2017
I feel my face in the dark
My lips feel cracked
A chill spine on my back
My phone I checked
But the battery was dead
A cut on my forehead
I feel the pain
The strength I try to gain
Drops me on the ground in vain
I feel the leeches crawling up my legs
I cry while my heart begs
For a rescue team to arrive
To get me out of this swamp
I'm frightened as I strive
As am bruised with lumps
The killer is at lose, still
Am just hoping he doesn't
Find me and ****
Lord, forgive my sins
If I die now
The devil wins
My head I bow
In a small prayer
My grievances, I share
Spare my life
I'm scared of the knife
God, let there be light
For all the lives lost, I want to fight
I am losing my words
Death dragging me towards
Will I be alive tomorrow?
As my strength has drowned in sorrow...

Visibility
Seema Jun 2017
Shinning in the ocean of woollen puffs
Surrounded by sparkles of zillion stones
One of its kind, that travels around
It's the moon, that fades the darkness alone
As I raised my head, towards the sky
No birds were chipping or flapping tonight
It was so silent except for the cricket,
That balanced the sound of this silent night
Admiring the celestial combination of nature
The mesmerizing, countless, dancing fireflies
So beautifully designed practising its culture
And here we are, drowned in material lies
The peace that shatters, on broken pieces
Over a period of time, heals outside
The gist of pain remains within
And all the feelings that we bury inside
The same story continues of love and life
Day after day and night after night
Once on the verge of giving up self
The darkness eases again with the moonlight...

Candle (Tanka #11)
Seema Jul 2017
It fades the darkness
With magnificent gem flares
Standing through the night
Burning with a longing hope
A red stain scented candle

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!

Till The End
Seema Dec 2017
Pull me
Close
For I am your
Dose
Lay me a
Kiss
On my luscious
Lips
Hold my
Hand
And take me to
The end
Till this love
Blooms
A day from
Tomorrow
You become
my bridegroom
And me your
bride
I hold your hand
Now with pride

The Little One
Seema Aug 2017
Seeing her smile
Makes my day
I walk from a mile
To see her everyday

Her little chit-chat
Puts me in the mood
I see her like that
Never being rude

She's a little princess
In the care homes nearby
A darling of hearts
Playful, timid and shy

A daughter of an unknown
Just a three year old
But I feel she's my own
So beautiful and bold

I wish to get her a home
By this Christmas hopefully
To love her like my own
.........her name is "Shayli"

Tragedy Queen
Seema Jul 2017
My vision got caught
By the glimmering sunset
So many, yet, just one thought
Ignited fire, within my chest
Truth is all, I honestly seek
Lay on sand, listening quietly
As thou the waves would speak
The soothing words politely
Clasped my hands over my face
To stop the emotional rain
Hoping my shadow would cast a trace
But it was only me and my forever pain
Silent questions explode in my mind
Why!! O' just why you promised
The words that are fake and unkind
I know I will never be missed
Every new story you cast
You drag me in as your tragedy queen
Reels fill in too fast
Then,
I am left shattered
                           while you grin at your win...

I Feel It Is You...
Seema Aug 2017

When the slow sound of footsteps
Rings in my ears,
I feel it is you...
*
When a portrayal of a wavering shadow
Is cast upon the walls,
I feel it is you...

When the flowers softly shines
In the colourful gardens,
I feel it is you...

When the intoxicated fragrance from the blooms
Sways in the wind,
I feel it is you...

When the stars ignite bright in the night
Perfectly swerves the rivulets,
I feel it is you...

When the moon finally shines slyly
On the other side of my bed,
I feel it is you...

                          Just you... :)

Rain (Tanka #13)
Seema Jul 2017
The pitter patter
Melodiously falls on
The old metal roof
Soon a spectrum of colors
Crossed the blue celestial dome

In Despair
Seema Jul 2017
Tear me down
Or splash a glass of water
A paper, I am
Soaked in ink
Of her own blood
Crumble or put me in the shredder
I am just a piece of paper
Holding her heart
Getting blamed in despair
Now in silence
As you hold onto me
To read the engravings
Slowly I feel
Your brimmed tear spurts
Sinking me down
Deeply!
