#sentiments
Je porte le fardeau de mille âmes
Je vois leurs joies, je vois leurs drames,
J’effleure leurs émotions fragiles
Comme on caresse une feuille d’argile.
Elles sont belles, pures, incandescentes,
Mais lourdes au point de m’écraser.
Je leur parle, comme pour me convaincre
Que je puis dompter ces bêtes ardentes :
Désirs féroces, appétits violents,
Vérités nues qu’on cache aux vivants
Sous des masques de sérénité.
J’ai ramassé, sans jamais trier,
Ce chaos brut, ce flot sauvage,
Ces sentiments nus, déchaînés,
Qui m'emportent dans leur orage.
Je ne sais pas forger l’armure
Qui saurait filtrer la morsure,
Le voile protecteur qui retient le mal
Et laisse s’échapper le cristal.
Apprenez-moi à garder la lumière,
À laisser fuir le poids amer,
À tamiser l’ombre et le sable,
Pour ne retenir que l’essentiel :
Le beau, le tendre, l'affable

Oh Rose, Rose rouge, Rose blanche,
Rose qui scintille et pour qui je flanche.
Oh Rose du jardin, sous la rosée jolie,
Répand un doux parfum, que jamais je n’oublie.
Oh plaisant souvenir dans ma mémoire,
Rose rouge, Rose blanche, ne cessera de m’émouvoir.

Tolling hungrily the hollow bell
High in pious belfry hung.
Lofty words as pride dictates
From deep in cavernous dwellings
To keep a doctrine as a young lady
Keeps hope of the future
Locked in a chest --
The ritual of past and present Notions.
Receding line at edge of seaboard
Feeding on dry land the
Watery grave
Filled with borrowed sentiments Adrift.
The open sea -- open sores of Prejudice
Cut off from inlets of vision and Reason.
Preserved as Lenin's body under Glass.

It's been almost a year
I'm stuck on you, I fear
Time treads like a beam of light
It was different that night
Clock froze from the moment you stepped in
So sweet, forbidden fruit, my mortal sin
I saw forever in your eyes
engulf me in your ocean tides
Oh, the unknowingly last kiss
The goodnight that I'll always miss
Your tempting but loveless touch is what I crave
Haunting memories I bury in a grave

Pieces of a woman
Gloom, glee, distance and intimacy
Attitude, gratitude, strength and vulnerability
Heartbreaks, Happiness, Longingness and poetry
Calmness, boldness and a bad *** stree.
Pieces of a woman
Stretch Marks, cellulite, miscarriages and then bossy
Shallow, Intense, blur and then some glossy
Cute, cheerful, lazy, sane and naughty
Benevolent, bizarre, shy and much hotty
Pieces of a woman
Family, friends, kin, acquaintances
Risk, safe and then out of the world chances
Society, sub-urb,rural and them glances
Some music, some writing, some shying and couple dances
Pieces of a woman
Marriage, adoption, career and grace
Clarity,focus,concentration and haze
Red,green, black, purple and beige
Independence, freedom, self-doubt and cage
All this and endless…..
And then some and then some
Nothing can totally define
The ultimate human
The beautiful, the wonderful
Pieces of a woman.

Your emotions, cataclysmic sentiments,
build foundations from crumpled pieces of paper
creating ideas born out of despair
and you sit amongst yourself
feeling like a candle flame
with piles of unsaid things
as your fuel, waiting to ignite,
a wicked smile held in place
right where it belongs
at the centre of a concept map
unsteady, unpredictable
the blueprint of catastrophe
laughter without reason

how do i undo
the feelings i have for you
when clearly you got no clue
that these are all true
how do i undo
to cut myself from blue
though this ain't new
i wanna get over you

DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, expressing old emotions and letting them go later when you are better----makes you feel so powerful and proud of the place you are now in:]
She changed for a shady robe coating her scars
She passed across mirrors abandoning her fury
She levitated on an ocean of despise
and let the sorrow sink her in the deep
She cringed from the pity and hid under her veil
She heard the loudness of silence and companied the loneliness

maybe if you didn't give any hint
like that time you liked my new tint
and when you gave me my favorite mint
i just wish you didn't
maybe if you treated others the same
like how it's only me that can tame
your only light and burning flame
so that's how it became
maybe if you were careful
and kind of less of a fool
a little more truthful
just thinking, it's wishful
maybe if i wasn't naive
for like a child, i believed
that you would not leave
however, i was deceived

Let me unbotton
The scarf of the feelings
Behind your chest
The layers of mirage
That filled you with mist
The fetters around your *****
And let me try
To break your shield
On the rips of truth
On the lips of the lightening words
In the middle of the night
I want to creep so deep
And reach your glass of thought
That keeps you afar
At the doors of the facts
To watch your limbs
Striding the moon
And beam with pleasure
In the eyes of the young
So tightly clung
To the sides of the river
That springs in your heart
With dispatch
That is born in brains afresh
To start from scratch

There are always waiting spectors
as morning’s penumbra ripples
where chants of the mind play
to an audience of one.
They shape the mist as dawn
expands and connects each breath.
The weight of darkness lifts to
the edges of ether, emptying
the private hole of self.
Slowly, the hours
open to the hovering light,
the soft burn of the sun.
Like an instant between
seasons, the clot of darkness
dissolves.
There on the edges of wakefulness,
unexpected color breaks open silence,
dispersing the night’s assembly of ghosts.

I always wonder why by the end of the month
Every smell changes like seasons fall into place
How today would smell sappy and fresh
But tomorrow it’ll be sugary and sweet
Once, I saw you changing it
I asked why you do that
You smiled and handed it to me as I sniff it,
“Nothing really lasts long.”
Whenever I get a sniff of this it reminds me of that place
I’d always go at the back seat or beside you
But now you’re gone it’s never the same
For I never experienced being beside you again
Now, I get why you change it every month,
For even the pleasant smell of an air freshener is temporary,
Despite of its strong and rich scent
There’ll be a time it needs to be replaced
Soft and musky
Clean and cool
Mild and delicate
The scents you always loved
So as I change my car freshener,
I still wonder,
If you were here by my side,
Would you be the one to change it every end of the month?

i just need a little rest
a week or so would suffice
no time to be pressed
give myself a time to realize
let me figure things out
there's a lot going around in my mind
let the season be in drought
i'll see what i can find
go away for now
what i need is no one's company
i may have no idea how
but let me rest harmoniously

dear anxiety, when will you leave me?
all my thoughts have gone wary
even my vision's kinda blurry
hear me out and save me hurry
dear anxiety, why are you here?
creeping me out so sheer
you won't get another tear
is anyone ever near?
dear anxiety, what do you want?
still in my dreams you do your haunt
tell it to me and i shall grant
even so, no one hears my rant
dear anxiety, who must i call?
though in the end it's me who will fall
surely you have taken its toll
when will they see it all?
dear anxiety, how are you?
so good at keeping me blue
remind me that this reality is true
those who see it are only few

i wanna get mad
and curse you so bad
you vanished all of a sudden
now my heart's all harden
i wanna get angry
but if I hear atleast just one sorry
it's more than enough
for my heart isn't that tough
i wanna be ******
for all these feelings i have risked
however, when it comes to you
i don't even know what's true
i wanna be happy
but without you it's all just lonely
so come to me,
for when its you, i'll always be ready

Relations
It's a substantial word,
Carrying so many emotions and sentiments within a person's soul.
If handled with care it can give wonders of the world,
But if handled carelessly it can destroy a person within all.
It is something that demands attention from both the sides,
In other words it asks effort from person for itself to satisfy.
It can drown a person in it without letting them know,
And can also destroy a person if taken out from this confined pond.
It is something that may confuse you people alot,
If it's bad it will never be good,
And if it's good it can be bad or good.
Now it's up to you as you know it's worth,
Don't let them drown you
And don't let them get away from you.

"everything happens for a reason"
is a line i'd rather not hear from now on.
reasons i wish i knew why,
what in my life it tries to imply.
i don't want to sit around and wonder,
what i could have done much better.

there are nights
like this
when i kept on
staring the cracks
at the ceiling
and wonder how
on earth
we keep
justifying
all the bullets
fired at us
just because
we love the
one
pulling
the trigger

I write
can make up all those
bloodshot eyes
and
sleep nights

I got the taste of what they called regret
I said as we walked around town
he was curious and asked me
What does it taste like then?
You.
