Not knowing....
07/02/2019


not knowing what to say
I stumble for words, emotions on display

ask, and you shall be given
if ask we must, what's the point in believing

toil, and the reward be yours
toil they did, for blistered hands n feet n sores

pray, your voice HE shall hear
pray they did, must have fallen on deaf ears

what taught and told, most followed
suffering, as if in eternal hell, pride swallowed

sins of the Angels, HE not cared
like ***** and Gomorrah, none is spared

humanity, degraded, HIS name corrupt
blasphemy abound, not long, shall wrath erupt

souls to save, what to say
each word, for salvation, I must now weigh

between light and darkness
only darkness it eternal

A ballet
07/13/2019

At the break of dawn, light
nudges her slumbering lover.
The cast of light and shadow,
pirouette onto the earthly stage,
and with every passing moment,
a new poise is shaped in place.

Now, the drama being played out,
that stretches all through to dusk,
the fluid movement of the artists,
mesmerizing objects in their wake.

It starts off with the shadow,
being nudged to life by light,
and the slow movement draws,
two lovers into each other's fold,
so by noon you see only one.

But like all the sad tales, this too,
by the beginning of the dusk,
see the lovers, part ways.
For light by Sun is no more,
and only the lonely shadow,
now covers the earthly stage.

Maybe if

'maybe if'
a road seldom travelled

'only if'
a road never travelled

'if'
an infinite distance
between
actions

Action
03/29/2016

Every breath I take is action
Every step I take is action
Every thought generated is action
Existence in itself is action

Trying Hard

Life is never what one wishes
A string of some hits and mostly misses
One tries hard and gives it their best
For what or for whom, just to build a nest

Exposed

The words were woven innocently
Yet left the meaning exposed
Such is the mind of a poet
Such is poetry
