I saw from mile
her gummy smile

three strand of hair
planted strongly
on the shining moon's hemisphere

brittle nails
creaking loud
scratching her back
and making sound

half closed eyes 
has seen the world
born slightly after the Christ

Dropping loose
her calloused skin
rusting black
like an old tin

her words fall empty never
forsees fortune
bestowed with clairvoyant power

Manisha

eyes are bleeding
And throat is sore
My heart is punctured
And am almost dead

World is crying
And all ears have turned deaf
Humanity is stolen
And only cruelty is left

Children are hungry
And eating your left
Stolen away from mothers
To earn bread before the sun sets

for the sake of religion
Digging graves of their brothers
Vomiting the words of hatred
And preaching anger

Torturing weak to turning slave
Chopping their tongue
And never let them say

Political bashings continues it's stay
Yet we celebrate all sorts of days

Why is the human inside us dead
Why is humanity stolen
And cruelty left


Manisha

Still safe in soul
locked forever, won't let go

light years to cross
you in heaven, I know

watch for me
and keep me safe
my guarding angel in god's place

following your footsteps
in the sand of time
deeply engraved
your preachings sublime

Manisha

And our hands touched the water
Our heads faced the wind
We took a mental picture
Sand salt and skin
Emotions a mixture
Anxiety we've grown akin
And for a while I forgot
And I wasn't sad, I wasn't scared
If anything I was ill-prepared
As this took me by surprise
But the way the moon hit your eyes
Late Thursday night drive
You made me feel alive

It was a miserable affair from the very beginning
Just try and ignore the bullet that invasively laments with the soul.
Asked over and over to clear the throat and to speak words louder
Funny thing is the louder the screams, the less one is known.

Roses lay down a path of nettles,
What once was cherished, was handed to ghosts.
I could have been your graceless temptress,
You could have been my cardinals post.

The cold seeps through the night
Hug me close, hold me tight
As droplets of rain slide down the window
Whisper in my ears, words only I know

The darkness wraps us in its cool cocoon
Don't leave me yet, don't go too soon
Wipe away my tears, give me relief
Fulfill my fantasies, suspend belief

The love we have holds us spellbound
It is amazing the joy that we've found
For me, this is more than a happily ever after
To remain in your arms and love you forever.
