There are times where I’m not myself. I walk and stroll the passerby’s With foreign eyes To see if they can tell. I am a lie of omission. Not quite the truth. A bit of a straight arrow, With flavorings of the uncouth. I’m not healthy for you, (nor would I want to be.) I am unattainable, I am fiction, I am fable.

Queries & Quenches: The Magic of the Message
Bound to an unknown fate Here, the actions take place Behind the veneer of life So many centuries of struggle Mental turmoil with acceptance Surrounded by vague elucidation We have tried many ways Followed different paths Traced our footprints of the past Wherever we have been Burdened by many more questions We have many more queries Insatiable souls looking for evidence The ground beneath our feet And the sky above our head Caught between a strange paradox We cannot travel beyond Limited accessibility to the vast unknown Unknown force limits our enthusiasm In an aim to reach the ultimate culmination Will be a befitting finale For the souls which have been seeking

Unknown Fate
Those sparkling eyes, that charming smile That countenance full of love You cast a spell on everyone, Innocence, you are a child! Your naughty pranks, your witty lies, Your cries and your giggles I have no answer to your endless queries Innocence, you are a child! You know no caste, you know no creed You know no envy and pride You put to shame, men at war Innocence, you are a child! I watch you sleep, undisturbed A picture of serenity! With a smile on your face and a tear in your eye Innocence, you are a child!

Innocence
Why are we born? What are we doing here? What will we do To the lives given to us? Many questions asked, Trying to unmask the truth; But no one else knew The true reason for living. Some pursue what they want, Some take the toll. Some ruin other’s lives, And some, clueless as it seems. Why are given The life we’re living anyway? Does Fate play it safe Or is it God’s plan? Try finding it out yourself, You might be surprised; The people around you are clueless But you reflect why. No one else know Your reason of existence Except yourself; Look into a deeper side. I might have just Found out my own reason; If I guess I didn't, I wouldn't have written this. The answer is just In your own self. Just dig deeper though, And you might just find it.
