Well Understood
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Weirdness
Laughs in her

As she is weird
As she can be

Odd isn't it,
Awkwardness

time keeps freezing
In my hands

My palms stay cold
Feeling the heat of the night
Of sensual calm

Time passes away
Awkwardness keeps the weirdness
Both say, "hey, beautiful."
Both in love. Stay...

Apologizing
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The singed clothes
Keep the stains
In a homelier place
Close to my stars
Covered body
Of thy mother Earth
"Who's she?" said Tom, indeed
She was my birth
My rebirth
My courageous laughter
Peaceful mirth
Peace on Earth

Spare Sundry
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Pinching the knees
Of my lady
I love her with an affection
I learned
I loved through nurtured
Understanding
That kept me awake
Like the books
Helping me dream
Now
Dreaming about her
Her books
Keep me alive
Oh, Christina Rossetti
I keep you in contingency

Icily Broken In Fire
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
High profile society
Keeps me in the fray
Of living with
the making of time
A simple prayer
As cool as the game gets
Trying my moves in every way
I guessed my hopes
For life
Are icily broken in the fire
That burns

Clocks With Contact
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Caressing the rain
Addressing the waters
That keep these streams
Off the weight of love
Keepsake these dreams afloat
Hope stirred a cloud
A cotton candy
A dream of
Sweetness
Of possessions
I'm wearing my attire
Like you are mine
"Love is a serious mental disease"-Plato

Poetry Fire
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
What hides behind her smile
That helps that cheer
Keeps me beguiled
The blue of the sky
Shows me when the crimson
IN the first
winter
Wintry; comes the snow
Keeping the flakes, how I don't
Know
Learning through Persian
Thoughts express words
I can't comprehend
Till the end
"Stop, and say hello"-The Beatles
Finding ways to stay awake. Hoping the signs keep the lights off their feet. Karma is a scene of not knowing how to make the movie.

Lies in the waiting
For a fresh drink
Other than the namely
crowd
Bringing conversation
To its natural sound

Scylla And Charbydis
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Rocks on the ocean
Bring the water
To hold its
Faltering heart
At the center of a storm
White as fear
After being lost from
So afar

Rare is warmth
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I wonder what this lady's
Likes
On the Inside
To match the sunrise
The very match to the disco lights
Keeping the legs of the table-top
Looking naked in a
Dressing gown
Keeping the lights
A lot of lights
For a town
Inside her palms
On her *******
As she falls from my eyes
In the love underneath
In keeping with the people
listening
"Everything that drowns keeps me alive" says old blood.

Notebook Of The Young
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Singing in the dead night
Keepin the flight
Of the wasted time
Seems like the mine
Of gold
Never shines
Unless a golden raven
Flying across the red moon
Feels free across the dark blue
Nov 2018 · 47
Tome of Blues
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Here lies
The epitaph
the statement
Of the dying
Meaning
Brimming life
With philosophy
It seems I bring
Living
Towards the dreaming
That accompanies the lifeless
Doors, swaying unfeeling
The empty sky
His witness

My friend
“Each day I lacerated myself thinking on her, but I didn't go back.”

Bleak Honesty
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I don't know why you
Walk behind
With a stick
To hit me on the head
Instead you could've strayed
From the way
Paving the way
For the mumbo-jumbo
To keep me in rubble
Of the political mumble

Voluminous Salvo
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Finally,
A chance
Though
Through
The instincts that made
Me
And Enemies
To Prove our resistance
A resistance
That was formed on peaceful riot
And looking at the bigger picture
Critics of social commentary said
Riots never seemed more ******
And blown out of proportion

Piety For Society
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The contemporary times
The early watch
On the ethics
Of society
The toughest love
The easiest to
Lose to piety
Of society
The education doesn't understand
The ill-informed citizens
Losing to conformism
Of society
The years go
With fears
Losing our innocence
The hunger for achieving
Comes from dreaming
About working
For it
"Stay hungry, stay foolish"-Steve Jobs

Viva La Cuisine
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The pasta cooked
With the red tomatoes
The barley grain
Tastes rustic, relishing
The garlic bread
Says the cheese
tastes nice
But I prefer, a drink of wine
With a plate next to human fingers

Inspires Me
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Placing my movies within
the sun setting
the hills alive
but the music
keeps it's shores on the
valley
As it flows like lakes of meaning
My reflection of children
Keeps my innocence
In the waters of solace
selfless
Lively but vivacious
She's the ******* my mind
So, hey
When I see that whirl
In the ripples of water
I see that woman of my life
"Those substances put in touch with the spirits. Of the creator and creative impulse that drives your music mad. Of the psychedelic planet"

Truant Ecstasy

The time keeps me
Out of my great

Helpful when the water sparkles with iridescence

Blues Hallucinogen
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Treading between the leaves
Myopically stricken off the record
Keeps me coursing on the fallen leaves
Golden, brown, yellow, orange
As the height of my captivating self
Comes up with the peaceful
Suicide, orange is the new black
Of living half-conscious through memories unknown
Beknownst tripping or hallucinating
On a brimming hallucinogen, die inside or unbeing
Within the happy recess, we aren't able to say something about the same karma
The king can do anything if he can carry the humor
Spring can finally be full of mist, everything is still
"I am the lizard king I can do anything"-Jim Morrison

Hazy and Fuzzy
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Take me home
Keep me from the
Moon
As it lays on it's *******
Amidst the stars and the mist
Covering
The Crescent smile
Hazy and fuzzy

Smoking Sun
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The light of the day
Keeps the sunshine
In the days brink
and as the dawn breaks
My weight of redemption
Gets more bearable
As I get higher
With the smoking Sun

Poison
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I loved my dreams
More than the sunshine
Kept me alive in the wake of the night
The time at the time
Of the rhyme
Without reason
Of the light of light
Reminded the glowing lamps
That floated brilliantly
In the dark sky
In the raucous surroundings
of the colonies
Be Hospitable to the dogs
Of society
Somehow the noise
Comes out sweeter
When there's less color and more smoke
And smells stronger
Happy Diwali :D

Pushed Out Of School
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
No wonder I couldn't cry
My fears
Kept away the weight
Of my peers
And I would cry in anger
And have blind resentment
"None but ourselves can free our minds"-Bob Marley
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Somehow I remember
I tried to place
My weight on my friends
Kept them in the embers
Rather than the flames
Of cheer and camaraderie

That kept the revolution alive
The reggae fellas and the tanks alike
Following the beat
With the rhythm of a nation
And the hymn of a weekend's peace

A peaceful sleep on Sunday
'Cause we Christian still got school
Yo!
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain- Bob Marley

Getting Robbed

The tempest of the wine

Thou art keep me drowning with

With bliss
Seriously lacking in moral fiber.

Crying And Howling
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
poetry drips like honey
fluids keep me from viscosity
of the slowness of a lifeless
nuance where I can be ******
And sensitively the one and only
My wives keep me company
Only in memory
My cats and possessions in the fray
Of poetry
My phallus keeps the gaping
hole of my fallacy
As a reminder of the unwanted *******
Time drips slow and steady
Somehow the gears and wheels
Keep me alive
I keep the tears of life
Awake in sight of effervescent might
Hotly teeming with meaning
Is a ******* that's bleeding
"Film as dream, film as music. No art passes through our conscience as feelings. Deep down into the dark rooms of our souls."-Ingmar Bergman

Tenement
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The soul lies behind
The veil that
Conceals it
In the beginning
Men prevail
Guiding his women
Through
Trials of Islam
And errors of coitus
Hidden from the eyes of family
*** takes place
And unable to face society
Dutifully
Faces hidden by the common man
In the house of terrorized society
Dutifully

Over The Soul
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Fluffy behemoths, flying monkeys
Make my day
When I'm an empty soul
Sitting in spirited away train
When I enter the destination
At night
I find myself
More in touch
Than the fun-loving fish
That make up the probability sea
Pooling in my resources
For a nice bath
Reminds me I should have been
A clean soul
Long before
The onset of service technology
"If you're going to retire, retire early"-Hayao Miyazaki

Soul Road
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The soul calls love
It's ally because it understands
It completely
I call love a mistake
Because I have misconstrued
Loving yourself can never be a mistake
Remember that
All girls are beautiful
And should be safe
Some men are strong and amazing
Let the soul teach us about love
Not fads and trends
Telling us what we'd love to buy
"My faults, my failure is not in the passions I have, but the lack of control of them"-Jack Kerouac

Cognizance
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I kept my soul
I kept telling my soul
It'll be alright
That's when my soul spoke up
And said
"Everything will be alright"
Souls are like teachers
When the student learns
About fantasy creatures
The student opens up his imagination
And says "They veritably exist."
The didact says "Of course you've seen them."
But the soul doesn't share knowledge as easily
As the body of a female
It runs on its own cognizance
"Sometimes you have to play a long time to play like yourself"-Miles Davis

Hidden Scenery
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Ignoring the human race
I sat next to a camp fire
These things kept me alive
In case
Somehow company came
Along came company
A deer, a leopard, a lion
And made life bear-able in
A cold forest, under the pine tree
Where cooking a meal for the night
Was the necessity
I expound,
With company
It seemed like
Just staying awake
For others
Was the point
Of this ebullient dream
Incase prey forgets predator
And prey forgets the ways of nature
And in case prey forgets nature
I'd be there to save deer
From a metaphorical leopard
In case a lion intrudes in the forest
Whilst crossing a stream or a lake
I could be there to
Make it feel welcome
Because lions
Leopards
Don't belong together
But bemusing it is,
That deer and man can share fire
Together
Forever
Amidst owls
Because owls hover and deer run
Man and predator learned to hunt
Now people  just hover in planes and luxury
Unknowing of wild life
Ignorant of the hidden scenery
"There was nowhere to go but everywhere, so just keep rolling under the stars"-Jack Kerouac

Jack Of All Trades
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When I see streets of life
In the streetlights of strife
It cuts me like a knife
To see I've much more to go
Than to grow
Realizing life works in the opposite way
At end
I find myself
Growing more
Than the work done behind
In many ways
The modern lanterns
Amidst motel lintels
Seem rather mellow
At first glance
My lady seems ravishing
But the smell of her...
I'll put my life's work
Into a concordant
The frets raise the pitch
Somehow I'm fretting
With my doubts
In life's pitch
"I have to change, it's a curse"-Miles Davis

Him to Her
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When
You ignore your past
For friendship
Alarms ring whilst
Your time
And
Your Mind
In arguing,
Exhausts your head

Makes your head hurt

Keeps your head held high
Whilst you say "I love her!"
Emptying your mind of evanescence
Relationships ruin friendships, a universal fact. But friendships after marriage a wonderful stroke of luck. "Life is a wonderful stroke of luck"-Dalai Lama

Water Lilies
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Peaches
Dripping
From trees
Like water
In
A cup
Life taking
Any form and shape
Waiting to acquiesce
To the right moment
When the right moment
Comes
You reach perfect place
In fulfilling form
Like water in a cup
Like a soul meant for love
Peaches fall
They however get too ripe
Do not get caught up in the moment
Use a productive route
For enrollment
In the school of life
Nov 2018 · 48
Mirrored Thinking
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Towering over my own dead body
I saw a mirror image of me
Contemplating I was it's reflection
Now the body lays bounded by chalk
It's a finality
Dying
It's finality
Living
Keep living
Or get busy dying

Warm Sleep
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Purpose in life
Is as lost
As finding meaning
However
There isn't a day that
Goes by
That nights don't feel colder
It may be the weather in general
But I have never felt more at ease
When sleeping in quilts
In the cold nasty breeze
Nov 2018 · 53
People
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
People
Half of them happy
half of them are sad
I am just trying to change
I always felt that sexuality. In this day and age, it tends to get categorized and labeled, and I think labels are for food. Canned food-Michael Stipe
Nov 2018 · 61
Trying Days
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When a person's time comes to make
His decisions, embracing
His past, in the fray
It's like a weeping child
At embarrassing moments, meek
She cries her eyes out
Unable to say a word
Unable to bear with the ordeal
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend

The Baker's
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Life
I was selling for my life
That was now possessed by a need
To have
Not want
Like boats meant for other waters
Not meant to be
Except to stay afloat
I made a living
Out of no home

Black And Blue
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Sun's flames
Burning bright
Like Jupiter's
Unpredictable
Dance Of gaseous fluids,
Valiance of the lightest blue
of a reasonable red
Saturated
Carves cerulean into my
journey
Deadly release
from my colorless possessions
Like firecrackers
As I concave
in the helium nucleus
Nervous
But, hey it's chemistry

I take on a star's life
Now
In the interstices of intergalactic expedition
Probably fluorescent green and yellowish-orange
A supergiant in the existence
Dimming in the future
I feel my death bringing
Closure
Believing in
Touching skies
That are opal
Like the world
My change
Being
A black hole
That says "Hello"
A brilliant dimension
To whole new world
In a parallel universe
Mass of Jupiter exceeds all the planets. Near the asteroid belt seemingly colorful in a variety of patterns. It expresses fluid dynamics in frenetic variety in the keeping with the expanse of the universe. The quantum physics of science make us realize predictability in a parallel universe is just a matter questionable unpredictability. We can pretend that life is easy but when reborn, a set of rules forces us to work towards understanding each other. That makes us awkward as a new generation. Reborn to relive our mistakes. Extremely awkward isn't it. Struggling with our thoughts just to say "Hello" to our loved ones. Like black holes in a parallel universe vacillating between absorbing stars or learning from them. Parallel or not we all have matter and that makes life. In a parallel universes, we would expect the different axes to be in unscientific spatial arrangement. As a black hole, has a ton of mysteries leaving the singularity as an enigma and point horizon as a conclusion of all the arrangements of time. Past- the time that once was, Present- the time that stays, Future- time that has gone away with Destiny.
In similarity, I suppose that people can have awkward moments fitting in this world and expressing their desires and thoughts alike their needs and wants. But a black hole as a single purpose after a star dies it is to create space for the universe occupied by light and not-to-mention gases.

Close To The Wax

IN THE SUMMER '06
Two girls
parted ways
over fights they couldn't
understand
and the mind turns
art paves way
for more to demand

Both
Over
An artist
Trying to get underneath
His skin
Little did they know
That the boy has
Two girls
kept in his basement
as wax paintings
They look like each other
To him
They have the same impression
The same colors
Of personality
Difference in shape
But the *******
Bring warmth each and every
other way
And what's down there
Is a matter of mystery
To some
But not a stranger
To the brush
