ScrewDriver
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
The feeling was good
It was reeling and rocking
Along the rocky shores
Foaming at the point
Of eternity
Where a ship died
Underwater
Trenchant
Where the treasures lie
Be a voice, not an echo

Middle Finger

The heart wants
The hand speaks
Through the middle ground

Irridescent Waters
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
I felt the sun rise
See it beyond the horizon
Speak to me of life
Basking in the sunshine of my tries
Hollower than the Lord's light
Hallowed be thy name
Rings inside
I scream my name
In vain
Heart is as the hand of God stays
I hope that my song plays
In the meaning of some distant way
Of travelling men
"The hand finds way to do what the heart wants say"- Paco De Lucia

Reminscing
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Strolling inside cafes
Made me reminisce the
Slow walk I had kept
While treading the balancing rope
Between the relationships and friendships
Taking cup of tea and a snack
Made the place lighten up
But the warmth go away
I felt I was born once again
Away from sadness
Unperturbed by obligation
Of keeping madness at bay
Until I had nothing left to say
To my mend my ways
"If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can change a million realities"-Maya Angelou

Blue Clouds
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
She's crying
Oh it's those tears again
That clouds those beautiful eyes
And I can't see anything in them
But they are cloudy whites.
I hope she wipes those fears
That are hidden in her
Leave uneven unrest
Love will find a way through paths that where wolves fear to prey-Lord Byron

Pulp Fiction
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Beauty is beyond me
It's in trees
And the streams
That flow by
Nearly all time
telling things
I have in my life
Nature flows like water
In a cup
For the trees to breathe
And ripen their fruits
Boughs breaking
Fruits falling with their leaves
As the bat leaves
For a better place to see
"I love man not the less. Nature more"-Byron

Amorous

Then I realized

By three words

Tomorrow

Neophyte's Serendipity
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Many bridges to cross
And seas to speed
Through
Myriad of cities to come across
But I never found you so
In a  manner so serendipitous

Scientology
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
I loved females
Before started wanting their wrists
On my bandmates
Guitar sliding with tune
Only to realized
That music was gone
And love was a fail
And Joy was a concept
That can seen
But not explained
Unlike, Science and other syncreticisms
One good thing about music is that when it hits you you feel no pain-bob marley

War Ship
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
War brings horsemen
Bringing soldiers
from different forums of men
Infantry attacks at the heart
Of decadence
War what ever it's good for.

A Maiden Dying
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
I love her
She's wonderful
Shhe's prurient
And she'[s emollient
And truant when in the ood
Pervasive in her affection
Affectionate in her affliction
She stayed with me through her dying days
Lifeless breaths
But she got to thee
With a sense of sanguinity
That long-preserved virginity,
And your quaint honour turn to dust,
And into ashes all my lust;

I'm Fine
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
There was a time
I was fine
My mood would agree
By saying "Hey, you're fine"
I felt fine
And I had better days though
Appreciating the greater things
Passed through ages
Studied and taught by sages
Filling my lifelines
They keep my emotions at bay
They ask for more shade
The palm trees
Sway to-an-fro
Now a pearl palliated by the oyster in the sea
With a stagnant show
A show of hands
Told me I can't go further
Any longer
Because my days were through
And my time come
When I had to go
I had to move

Blue and blonde
Blonde and blue-eyed baby
A hair full of bliss- Blonde
And head and heart learning their ways in the race- Blue

Innocence
Jewish possessions in ruins
Camps with poisonous flames
And burning hands
Burning in
Brick kilns meant for glass
Prurient Anti-Semitists dancing to their tune
Wie spaß
"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination"-John Lennon
Started with the a feeling of theft of the rights to their own country. Turned into a segragation of race and the economy.

For its cygnets
And their wings
Ripples giving the river some drop of depth

Sweets and Caffeine
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Six blocks away a cafe lies
Taking in lovers by the hour
And singles by the minute
Serving coffee and sugar
Milk pours out
And the bitterness becomes an aftertaste
Of the conversation that once took place
Among two people holding each others glances
At the face of it
Coffee breath
And Chocolate cake

But ill

Old Poem
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Remember the time
When the girls looked at you
Now they don't do they?
You've probably changed
But to me you haven't
Only the women you set your eyes on keep changing
Sincerely if you keep gawking
You won't get anyone closer
Or get them talking
Settle down if you really crave desirability

Get a job and earn the big bucks
Or find a girl and let her make you feel like you are the best
"Intelligence is without ambition is a bird without wings"-Salvador Dali

Of all places to state
Your reason
For existing
For being my delight with caffeine

No Judgement Just Justice
Aditya Roy Oct 2018
Accusers write yellowed pages
Placing the hands of law
Above the human touch
Casting flaws
Aside
Life can be as such
A melodramatic tale of ******
But when it comes to yellow pages
Then most crimes stay indoors
In the life of rhymes
So when you write about ****
Don't ruin the poem
Take your time
Pen down experiences
Not the feelings
For which you are appealin'
Because the enemy will always run scot free
In a court full of friendlies
With the criminals of course
In Justice Kavanaugh
