The fire gives the warmth,
         as the storm rages on.
Druzzayne Rika May 2022
Is it still ongoing, the bloodshed?
Violence is no good, don't we know that?
Guns keep firing, in other nation and our own,
what happens next, more blood spill?
Is power, everything, no empathy for living?
Are humans blood hungry, why is it not stopping?
How is there no solution, only ego?
why make normal humans martyrs?
Is it going to end, the unrest?
Or soon will I too be drop dead?

Praises and flattery
works their magic once
then they start becoming
annoying
Fly
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2018
Fly
Inside the cages
The freedom
is the heaven

In the chains
any change
is welcome

The outside prison
is calling out to you
the invisible chains
binding everyone on earth
who go up, are falling down
it is just like what is in this home

Still the ravens are up
true to their wing
and we are in a place
to go nowhere

Yearning to feel
to breathe the fresh air
get an experience
to be unbound
get the heartbeats
to beat back to the music

The time when all
the shackles are broken
The time spins
and we have nowhere to go
but we run
towards the sun
But we can't fly
.
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2018
When will my soul take the call
do what I don't
do how I feel
for those few powerful seconds.

tempted to it
really want it
simply difficult
to follow through
enough, enough.

so slow
the heart beats,
so slow
my mind works.
There is risk,
I know.
I am so,
so hopeless.
Follow my journey
to get bored.

What is it about food
that I am eating life
killing their existence
and feel nothing.
Druzzayne Rika May 2021
Am I blind to my own truth
that I do not see what you do
what people see when they look,
who am I even fooling,
Or am I the biggest fool?
Druzzayne Rika Nov 2017
I hope they'll all forget me
Then I can lead my life happily

Forgiveness
It is not simple
It cannot be given
So simply
Without the intent
The mind won't rest
Till the end
But forgiveness
Gives the freedom
To move on.

Forgiveness
Is freeing,
It is the peace,
It is so much more.
It is a step taken
To move ahead,
Leave behind
The history
In the past.

Forgiveness
It is the best gift
Given and received,
It can be the beginning,
it is the end of bitterness.
It is just like a necessity
To be a human
Who makes mistakes
live with harmony.

Forgiveness,
I give to thee free
To free me from the chains
Of the ill thoughts
I conceive in head
time to time, again and again
To not loathe the trust
I placed in you.

Forgiveness,
It is a process
To forgive myself
As I forgive you,
I give myself another chance
To believe the best
In you and in me.

Forgiveness,
Let's mend it.

Hundreds of thoughts
starts a fight
and I'm the one on losing side
And I have to face it ,
cannot avoid
They do not play fair
their debate
goes nowhere
It starts somewhere
and do not end
They make loud noises
each one with own voice
gives my head an ache
too much to take
Tires me out ,
brings me to the state
that I succumb to their whims
burn down my own dreams
I can't win against me
my very own frenemy
Druzzayne Rika Oct 2022
People keep dying
Every century, year and this second
Be it be outbreak, poor healthcare or war
Lives are lost,
People keep suffering
History is filled with pages of red
Injustice alike, discrimination
Torture and slavery
Our contribution to the future,
It is quite the same
Along with carbon emission
and other deadly things
Humanity brings humanity down
It is a fun ride without the fun
Druzzayne Rika Aug 2020
The things I have gained in past few months,
is back pain and weight,
and the knowledge of the things that I absolutely need,
and what I can do without
The question of wealth,
the importance of health
And praying for well being of all.
I hope you are doing well.
Druzzayne Rika Nov 2017

Everything I do,
Everything I change
I try
so many different things
as the day begins,
all my efforts go down
as sun sets.
I lose interest
and feel so much dismay,
the boredom
the worthlessness.
Internally I get the feeling of unexplained grief
it doesn't go away
I do not know the origin of this feeling
but it slowly feasts on me
consumes me
and I lose this game everyday.

AI has taken over
it surround us
in the playground of ours
amongst us

Torrential purpose
we don't realise
what more it can do

Generative AI
playing with our data
It ruins us
we consume it
believe over human
Interactive device
we can't tell if it start lies.

What of it, one day it will beat us
What of it, it takes over our independence
and we won't be able to tell
because of our dependence.

The Earth was green, the Earth was warm,
Then came the man, with fuel and farm.
He cut the trees, he filled the sky
With smoke and heat, and so we die.

The world is hot, the world is dry,
The polar caps are melting high.
The sea is rising, cities drown,
And we are left to stand around.
It is hotter than usual

She wishes him the best
says her Goodbye
with a warm embrace
but he replies her back
with a nod
and goes away
She waits for him to come back  
Many messages everyday
of his day , stay and others
with few to no replies
Hopeful less every next day
messages too decreased later
one and then none
He came after few months , changed
tried to locate her
but never found her again ever

The words are floating in the air
Gossip is everywhere
Druzzayne Rika Dec 2023
More than seventy years seen
still looked more keen
and what a year it has been
Yet cannot believe you didn't see
the year twenty three
what a hell it has been
Not seeing you anymore
Looking down from the window,
the one I most adored
why did you leave me,
Since the last day of last December,
The winter is freezing me like never before!
Druzzayne Rika Dec 2022
You come across a world, worlds apart,
A sanctuary to call my own
A beam of light, a true calling
Rituals of care, a distant longing
As this year ended, you decide to go
To the other side of the door
You keep walking, leaving me behind
In the unjust world, I find myself alone
Your new angelic glow, a darkness in my life
Death is a final farewell, the supreme call
The memories keep going and coming around
I cherish them dearly, the wisdom and the banter
I wish I could flip the clock to go on forever
Because this lifetime is not enough
Wait for me till I get my to cross this sea.

Why to test the gravity              








                          again and again
                                             by falling down?
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2017
Keeping hands to myself ,
I finish all my pending chores
till my hands become sore
Druzzayne Rika Sep 2023
What makes a happy memory
it would end like in a melody
the waves make in the way
someplace
Cherishing moments treasury
But eventually, things end.
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2022
Tremendous effort by those who develop ability
to keep their tongue in check
For a day from being politically incorrect

I do mind when you look at me
Saying do not mind and then proceed to tell
Another cutting sexist bad humour.
Those who do are the real joke.
Druzzayne Rika Dec 2020
Everything you write is sold
there is marketplace out there
what is authentic anymore
every word is carefully crafted,
manufactured and packed
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2021
I don't have a face for the man who just died.
But it is true indeed that my heart did cry.
I have been hearing his voice all through the last year.
He was firm and strict and kind in his own way.
The year has been too cruel that now I fear.
The news hit me hard to know he is no longer here.
I feel the numb as I hear more terrible news filling in.
Someone I knew or someone my friends knew.
They got affected and for few left and few are leaving.
And it will be hard to see the world around with them missing.
Druzzayne Rika Dec 2023
A violet sky, a silver sea,
A scene so pure, it should make me free.
But in this beauty, I find no ease,
A hollow feeling that won't appease.

The air is pungent, the land is polluted,
The creatures of this world, so persecuted.
Their plight unseen, their voices unheard,
As we exploit them, with no remorse.

Our greed is like a parasite,
Devouring all in its sight.
We leave behind a trail of destruction,
A hollow world, devoid of instruction.

Vindictive nature, now takes its toll,
As we reap the seeds that we sow.
The beauty fades, the sparkle wanes,
And all that's left is a hollow refrain
Druzzayne Rika Aug 2023
the whole world is circled around them
and we are left being their sidekicks.
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2017
Once upon a time
She ran away from her hometown
All the things she worked harder for
says her Goodbye
and restart all over again .
On the barren lands
everyone lost.
More half path
to the end
left to travel . .
faded away somewhere
which path to take
tall trees , scattered sunrays
and growing day by day
a chance to start living
And feel delighted
with all the time she had
wish not to be like someone else
And there will come a time ,
she'll get to shine
The End
Little scattered lines...
But compilations of lines from
most npmpoems ....
This is my attempt , hope you all like it
It's funny to see you in business
Arming them to ****
Frowning, but sending them bills
Putting money bags in your account
Collecting wealth on shared misery
The very heart of this new age tragedy
It's always the same,
Building skyscrapers and bridges
With their ghostly blood on every brick
We know your bluff, your stanze
Looking down and away,
One more terrain in disarray
Your eyes on the next target
Starting fire on next oil.
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2017
This evening,
slow drizzling,
peace accompanying
eyes drooping
And I start dreaming

This land , I go
The place no one knows

There are unicorns , there are fairies
There are roses , there are lilies
There is rainbow ,There is waterfall
But there is no worry at all

This is my hiding place ,
A place ,where my joy stays
A place ,where stress goes away
A place ,where I hideaway from trouble
A place , where I stay inside the bubble
A place that protects me from reality
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2021
Huge chunk of my heart is missing,

What is it that is still beating?
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2020
Everything is calm
There is a storm outside.
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2021
Freedom,
It is gone.

I was once a free bird,
but jailed in my home now.

I can go out but I won't,
Freedom has a big price tag.

Where does the right side of history originate?
Druzzayne Rika Aug 2017
People seek attention
because they need someone
that care ,
a reason to be ,
their absence , presence
to make significant difference .
If not given enough
they'll dig a hole
to get some ,
constantly ask for assurance
of how they matter .
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2017
How to hide ,
that I cried ,
when I am red-eyed?
Druzzayne Rika Jul 2021
I fell. Hard.

On the floor.

It was gravity's fault.

I did nothing wrong.

I am heavier than I seem.

The sky won't tuck me in.
Druzzayne Rika May 2017
Forget each religion
love humanity
And no God will disagree
Druzzayne Rika Feb 2018
Violence makes this place ******
we need it to run the world peacefully
we keep are guns at home dearly
who cares if someone fires on unknown
innocent dies, our heart cries for a second
we close our newspaper and feast on the cookie
and we move on to something new to lean on
and leave our home to see the world no differently
human life has never mattered much in history.
The thoughts of my mind
the words of my tongue
it's the same as what gen ai does
But the soul that I am
it's beyond the dimensions
unreplicated but same as you
Druzzayne Rika May 2021
Are you lost in the time,
or lost in the space
or
Just out of my face?
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2017
An image , I see  
from where I stand
The coloured sky
and beautiful land
The birds fly
and winds blow
The sun shines
this place glow
and I walk there slow
taking my time with the peace
Something I know I'll miss
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2018
Till it becomes too late  
                           I'll wait....
Druzzayne Rika Jun 2023
Little little did I know
I was caught unprepared
And I wouldn't lie, you know
It is a truth, no one can deny

That I was in a pickle,
A real pickle, you see
And I didn't know what to do
So I just stood there, like a fool
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2018
Nobody is correct in the end,
is always proved to be correct.
Druzzayne Rika May 2023
I met different people, I met them at different place and time,
I am part of their story as an insignificant entity,
They are different human to me, a different facet in front of me
I wish there was a reason for everything,
But I guess I will not get to listen to them in this eternity.
Druzzayne Rika Mar 2020
Leave me with my thoughts, don't!
Get me out of here, now!
This is hell and heaven combined
Am I losing my mind, find!
It is getting out of hands, umm..
Help me out, someone?
Druzzayne Rika Oct 2017

Please,
let me be
set me free
don't do this to me
why be so mean
even in my dream
don't make this another reality
this is the place of my beautiful fantasies
don't ruin this too
like you always do.

Druzzayne Rika Feb 2018
the real nature
hidden beneath many layers of skin
there is truth
deeper in those myths
many doors
to the same corridor
met each other
quite a lot of times.

Many scene changes
the travel lengthens
along grows like and dislike,
dark and white.

There are many dimensions
the time relative
evolution and decline
and all the unknowns undefined.

There is the pride
with the many passions
dragging us towards another illusion
the mirage stays for the eyes.
Existence questioned
time blinks away
only in grasp of enlightened
others effort futile
this chance while.

Acceptance will keep the peace
no appeal, no appease
keeping still
the background wheel
initiating the end of the suffer
meditating to get better.

The inner light
shaded and dim
concentrate to ignite again
to the right bright
remove the leftover dirt
all that spins it
and revive the lost spirit
the one hidden beneath.
