tree of life
tranquil Oct 2013
what does he most fear
what's he scared to lose
chained to dreams in sleep
a life he did not choose

how did all this start
whisper in my mind
am i only a dream
to your roots confined?

for silently i burn
afraid of ambiguity
scared in every moment
by farce of reality

and if its all a dream
as you'd have me believe
tell me o men of wise
what a tree does dream

just for it is indeed
alive as you and me
conscious of space and time
amidst eternal stream

does it wish be freed
of earthy shackles deep
of towering limbs in light
and slender fingers green

to break the nature's vow
and silently set free
its spirit bearing fruit
from love's primordial seeds

free from soils of world
when this tree does sleep
as your world wakes up
you still dream through me

curious cloud
tranquil Oct 2013
as a cloud slips out
from hands of mountain queen
it questions its existence
it questions its belief

with one hazy walk
feeling all it sees
flies it through the sky
curious of its being

but world's a stranger yet
in lesser realms of sea
a shiny pearl of glass
on edge of floorless being

in mystery that pervades
did often wonder he
standing still in awe
what does freedom mean

to all of what it asked
and all what it sees
closed both eyes and heard
the call of its belief

"in all which forces flow
in all prayers which heal
into your song of life
purge my lonely being"

gift
tranquil Oct 2013
one that cannot freight
or be swayed away
with your force of faith
in my modest way

feeling so pure in heart
my love so bright and true
bless my brand new start
this gracious gift from you

sift like sand from hands
i am free to go
like your sky so grand
i long to be pure

eleven lights and cypress
tranquil Oct 2013
amid love's needy hour
on tiring eyes unclosed
fills as sight of flowers
this night silent and lone

this one beast of moon
which peeks into her being
with its swerve-less tune
through sky twirling be seen

blossoms her soul of life
do sing her lips such song
be melt into twilight
and be forever gone

yet know in heart does she
hears drama of a sky
in arms of cypress trees
her love will never die

this tranquil town hillside
on bluish giddy slopes
on this cold starry night
she wraps herself with hope
inspired by Van Gogh's starry night

rebirth of a traveller
tranquil Oct 2013
encircled by the dawn
like an oyster shell
hear stories that go on
in tales travelers tell

of secrets which she hides
in gloom of the brook
of dreams in which resides
a hazy phantom look

yet roads which she's taken
all paths which unfold
like pools which lilies fathom
in sorrows untold

though her heart does know
no one does life mourn
when world closes its doors
she shall be reborn

mirror
tranquil Oct 2013
this special summer's day
may joys fly with your zeal
in domain of your heart
may tranquil havens be

like fallen autumn leaves
just shut your eyes and see
to dance away all night
lean into ecstasy

for beauty is no trance
and never shall it be
its not a song you'd hear
or picture you could see

be your friend may soul
murmurs of His being
guide you in darkest nights
and sail the toughest seas

may words which hide the pain
flow freely from your speech
for in the book of life
does time no secrets keep

but may it delve in soul
unveil its holy seed
to be a truth in which
gazes eternity

for in the mirror of love
our world shall itself see
you'll search yourself in all
in you will i search me

birthday night wish
tranquil Oct 2013
in gleaming starry night
believe in tranquil dreams
fly through prussian clouds
express yourself with breeze

when clear blue rivers chime
by sleepy forest trees
slip him into your heart
and to his will agree

for there's nothing rarer
essenced in vitality
when genius of a moon
loves imperfectly

may million seasons pass
all endless moments be
and lined with purple carpets
may shimmery nights you see

its just another day
in life of ones who dream
for those who always love
shall live eternally

leap of faith
tranquil Oct 2013
hidden in every dream
dipped in every breath
a symptom of your being
reaches every step

steps which surely lead
away from sheltered past
to stranger shores indeed
into your soul at last

below the gloomy skies
or stormy seas you go
remember in dark nights
from shadows does sprout hope

with every gust of wind
free yourself away
set sail with all your might
to a better day

on brink of what shall be
the turning of a page
with slender arms outreached
come take the leap of faith

brand new day
tranquil Oct 2013
in deeper shades of red
in memories slipped away
as book with pressed flowers
remind you of today

of treasures hid in dark
as lights do celebrate
in jolly remembrance of
all things you appreciate

with steady blessed rains
and showers of love pure
create a world so which
we'll cherish and adore

for crafted delicately
if handled with belief
will shine your jubilant soul
brighter than diamonds be

in nights of dreamy hues
which softly pave your way
a light of blessing true
welcomes a brand new day

autumn moon
tranquil Oct 2013
like a rounded piece of ice
shrouded by the cloud
gentle beauty, kind and wise
splendorful and proud

over quiet waters still
and shiny ocean leaves
riding autumn air's chill
few kindred spirits meet

on a blossomy sky of silver
they trace the tree of stars
mesmerized with sacred splendor
delight spills from guitars

its resplendent propinquity
does my sky rephrase
as this glorious moon above
gently takes new phase

you and me as drifting tides
pull from shore to shore
like a dream which lover's confide
and yet wander alone

shine alone o solemn moon
for drowsy stars are gone
but shower upon me light from which
i shall be reborn

narcissus
tranquil Oct 2013
in moonlit nights almond white
possessed by solitude
through haunted layers of mind
strained by betrayal's tune

in root of crumpled lies
does sleep a swellness frail
flooded with teary eyes
wearing my last image

when life is heard in murmurs
i re-enter myself
cursed to love forever
drown with every breath

the outrage of your love
audacity of embrace
like narcissus endures
his fate he contemplates

truly my true love
i live through pain of hope
in soundless traces of
moonlit shadows that flow

burning dreams
tranquil Oct 2013
enwrapped in ornate flush
are seven colors of rain
bear me in your memory
behold this little pain

to blurry shades of sky
we'll throw our stars again
but pangs of sooty love
watch them few remain

from prisons of solitude
although perhaps in vain
just hint me through this cloud
in tears my love remain

through burning dreams at night
and fiery shadows lain
bear me in your heart
behold this little pain

sands of time
tranquil Oct 2013
beneath the layer of wrongs and rights
a play which we pretend
below the skin of truth and lies
upon life condescend

what is all which we do hide
deep in stony walls
scared to jump as if it hurts
like a million falls

for on ground which sits a bird
too afraid to fly
trembling legs and doubting wings
sees its lonesome cry

though i may yet stumble or
though i may yet fall
still i know you'll be with me
see me through it all

free of shiny masquerades
loving all blemishes
walk i shall on sands of time
soggy with tears of bliss

as light peeks through my window pane
fulfill this morning's will
with trust entrenched in God's name
today i choose to live
while i breathe the world in me
life plays in lyre and rhyme
and witness men with passion leave
footprints on sands of time

magdalena
tranquil Oct 2013
when narrow blinded eyes
draw out their hunting gear
leave traces of their feat
just as a souvenir

all eyes near and far
shadows mine which hunt
leering as i bend
bending as i turn

bodies as cold as dead
spiral against my own
as if a lonely rock
bears whirling storms alone

sing praises of this flesh
my ageing hollow corpse
savor this luscious treat
slip into this warp

into a sightless knot
all in the name of fun
buildup a love all fake
romance my skeleton

if time may blind all reason
although few eyes may roll
bring yourself inside me
come love this wretched soul
based on Maria's character from Paulo Coelho's novel Eleven Minutes.

venus flytrap
tranquil Oct 2013
it drains from me like blood
like sacred hyms of love
through torments of your mercy
here do i rise above

what is all that which turns
Gods into but men
treacherous pangs of loss
with streams on cheeks again

as if a walk in park
innocent satin dreams
yet fallen to abyss
on edge of time it seems

for when you jail me in
between the heaves of storm
in jaws of clueless beauty
trapped i shall transform

------------------------------------------------------­-------------------------------------------------

moments all spent in eyes
in arms of soverign lap
guiltlessly i'll fall for you

tranquil Oct 2013

you bloom so lazily

adolescence
tranquil Oct 2013
on beds of fragrant sights
through charms of sourest deeds
it rains away all spring
all when my heart bleeds

--------------------------------------------------------­--------------------------------------------------------------

i­ know not who i'll be
or what i really am
an immemorial soul
in nimbler storms which swam

among the crowd of flowers
so sickeningly sweet
would lie the boldest aphids
upon the roses feed

my feathers trod on winds
challenge His modest grace
through marching fleet of life
in ****** shadows laid

with semblance of a calm
in grooves of wilderness
in arms of ecstasy
which life stands to confess

but how shall these two feet
embark a lonely trip
perhaps find love so still
as dew on roses' lip

------------------------------------------------------------­----------------------------------------------------------

in faintest of moonlights
on dewy grasses seen
inscribed upon my palm
is meaning of my being.

dedication
tranquil Oct 2013
blended in my dreams
confessions made in mind
wrote to you so clearly
and still so unrefined

as this life mimics
the gloomy clouds of heart
and honors your friendship
in moments when we part

but just before you go
remember once again
times which left us by
just as we chose them

memories when we teased
played ourselves to sleep
and wondered how once ran
these tranquil waters deep

in tales of olden shared
in talks of joy and pain
when everything was said
with single smile plain

when wrangling's over all
eclipsed our days and nights
trivial yet implicit
as something else might

though while i recall
of which is now past
my soul dreams of a time
of a lie that didn't last

and here i am now for
everyone to see
what comes of a man
too afraid to be

all so brittle and coarse
in your soft smother
i used one bitter lie
redeemed it with another

to the last question my dear
blunt as this cleansing rain
you answered in three words
with unspoken pain

you have no idea
of my gratitude
for these shall serve excuse
to always be with you

be with you in heart
be with you in mind
to see you dance in rain
through foliage of time

just few of many reasons
or talks i came up through
before the cunning lie
that i never loved you
bit by bit you leave
a hazy memory's shade
was i sane or not
there in the first place

only you shall know
who i really am
a man without the courage
to share his silly plan

mediterranean nights
tranquil Oct 2013
on coast of phantom town
she feels the sweetest breeze
as ****** tulip's pout
as unstirred skies deep

lost in moon's embrace
i wash upon the shore
roll my dreams though night
to meet her sight once more

a camouflage unveiled
in musky shadows dark
draped in silken silhouette
she dips me in her spark

and passing scents of warmth
leaning on few lips bare
i feel her rushing heart
rising with midnight air

in arms of orange groves
near dying winter seas
a night tired of love
caresses her to sleep

myth
tranquil Oct 2013
of all those who shall dream
the blinding suns of gold
in tiring treacherous days
struggling to stay afloat

brave enough to steer
in fiery unknown seas
below a brooding sky
remarking closely

but still there are a few
who feel its all a myth
the sea the sky the sun
are props we all act with

so while my wisest friend
blesses my brand new start
i merrily surf this sea
and play my crazy part

on a night like this
tranquil Oct 2013
on a night like this
when sky's a prussian hue
fragrant as tangerine
stunning as shiny dew

pressed up in crimson frames
silken hypnotic smile
a figment of my dream
lands enchantress of night

if carved and mould in bronze
surreptitiously
through mist of glowing white
she flows as jasmine breeze

her canopy of eyes
as hieroglyphs unseen
and spellbinding secrets
mystic as hermit's scheme

she lands upon my mind
as it was meant to be
mirage in starry sky
as crescent in the sea

few tales of falling stars
when rest in lap of sea
i hold her hand once more
fade into her dream

with pictures etched in soul
on glistening beaches be
on a night like this
she finds herself with me

your smile
tranquil Oct 2013
beneath unbroken winds
and ropes of breathless air
pages of ripened age
when curl up in despair

in sea of thousand aches
oppressed by one's own self
some young impudent dreams
never deserve His help

although the lips may still
express endless repose
and gaze across the sky
as this night grows old

to sleep in pod of love
amidst the fog of dread
in hues of life dreamed of
you smile as stars ahead

farewell
tranquil Oct 2013
how do broken dreams
smell while they be fresh
as furless in a snow
as shivering naked flesh

amid a creatures crowd
it wanders sightlessly
and drowns with every breath
when skips few of its beat

this flickering noise it makes
with dying of this day
a solemn heart does shrink
as petals plucked away

and still be set ablaze
by fierceness of night
in midst of mocking stars
in staleness of its plight

i tread along this time
as pilgrims by the sea
and leave for fate to meet
an intolerable prophecy
if it be asked how do
broken dreams would smell
against a soggy ash
imagine farewell

blizzards
tranquil Oct 2013
schemes of naked solitude
engraved in storyline
as broken wings unsure
of blizzards lost in time

in different senses we
find dreariness alone
how ficklest root of us
strikes wilderness unknown

and know how hard it seems
to let go of your eyes
in mind of throbbing veins
in sifted crimson smile

feels as blessed we were
or cheated if it be
fallen to tricks of time
as treasures rest in sea

hope
tranquil Oct 2013
in whispers of the wind
through rustling of few leaves
some distilled clear skies
staticly concede

a view of sundry hope
and helplessness alike
for tireless arrows slay
just as a thunder strike

of molten ends in time
swinging to the stars
you land upon my thoughts
all as if they were ours

dance along to beats
of showers cruising loud
illuminate the flames
dispel this fear's shroud

and taste gardens of sand
on burning lips of rain
to curl into my dream
to kiss away my pain
for you are mine alone
as none shall ever be
on tranquil nights like this
i find yourself with me

tranquil Oct 2013
in heart of charming pages be
the pride of graciousness
in sight of modest poetry
describe my sweet unrest

bring along this twilight screen
to glowing faces gold
wipe away a shadows' trace
to beating legends told

****** upon the streams of love
conquer brilliant shores
glide across the face of stars
wake and shake this soul

that shall never rust away
clear as sober snow
turn to me as heavens song
pure as lilies grow

far across on nodes of love
when journeys swiftly meet
when world searches itself in all
in you will i find me

for while my mirror looks upon
an ambition so great
with dreams of having you along
it is for you i wait

smoke
tranquil Oct 2013
in graves of boorish lands
a livingness so fake
riddling away this void
amidst the autumn race

with blink of bleeding heart
memory seeped in pain
she hangs upon his sleep
stale as love remain

but though may demon heart
pull voices in a head
and shrink below her weight
triumph as quitters dead

to find itself holed in
a crypt of blinding dark
dystopian consciousness
rejected cut spark

if faith shall fade and choke
in throes of emptiness
risk streams of million thoughts
set freeze in mindlessness

he'll find himself alive
near oasis of hate
her cascading blue eyes
crashing inferno's gate

for in his dreams as if
twisted lie angry shores
an accident of life
she drifts as nervous smoke
awaiting a distraction
that permeates this soul
as fragrance of wet earth in monsoon.

wait
tranquil Oct 2013
cloudy canvas confused
the showers left it dry
jailed up in solitude
in fields of paradise

imagine ink implode
in veins of pleader's brain
**** everything inside
but spare his lovers name

betrayed beguiled befooled
by silent loneliness
with promised souvenirs
that kith and kin confess

my prison feels unreal
still tangible it stays
behind a purple silk
trapping obnoxious haze

i pray and pray some more
and long for liberty
beseech his soul for light
to bring my love to me

lament and fight my fate
clasp arms of hope if be
till trammels all collapse
till we are free to meet

for clouds are destined to
meet blissful novel rains
just wait some darling sweet
we'll see us meet again

reason
tranquil Oct 2013
which breaks the faceless crowd
a gush of blissful warmth
soothing as autumn sun
fiery as raging storm

the earthiness of fields
and scent of blooming slopes
the wilderness of sky
a bustling city's soul

she is the riddling key
hint of a dreamy life
window which breathes the sun
blesses my being with shine

a nebula of birth
crucible of synthesis
my sermon on the mount
my fall into abyss

complexity of life
simplicity of smile
the fleetingness of wind
purposelessness of time

a father's solemn wish
a mother's selfless prayer
immortal as the sea
lover's listless despair

patience of dormant seeds
the certainty of death
innocence of a child
preciousness of breath

vapors of firmament
helplessness of loss
a tease of sun and clouds
the curiousness of God

she is the judgment day
a dream of languor warmth
the solace of my pain
cast in a fervid form

for she is all there is
and all there'll ever be
an era of romance
the reason for my being

as tranquil rainbows dim
and stars bestow a treat
my muse forever sought
i yearn the day we'll meet
your sight is the breathing moment of my soul..


  as inseparable as liquidity from water,
   as heat from fire,
    vastness from sky,
     dream from a sleep,
      tranquility from a starry night,
       as love from life.

destino
tranquil Oct 2013
what sits in vicious throes of time
her silver shiny face
quivering from infernal forge
obscured away in space

enigma of this starry gloom
labyrinth of fantasy
dissected by her loneliness
seamless as tranquil sea

the opus of my nightingale
and chastened sounds of glee
sure as a stolen sight of gods
reveal our destiny

a life of defunct voidness
the land of phantom trace
in fraction of the infinite
she finds a sweet embrace

of what is filtered through her eyes
it rains through silver hair
all in the moments autumns float
and thunders sweep with care

for those of us who shall be praise
or bring repose upon
hers is the love so often missed
and seldom ever won

for coldest warmth of molten dreams
may spiral passing by
and mark a mortal woman's love
for a man who could not die

              velvet blue rose

                    the paradox of her jubilant soul

which spreads as breath of love
a shine of softness sweet
a singing orb of light
in moments of retreat

she is the grey of clouds
a thunder's rising fleet
a night of falling stars
on minds of dreamy seas

and as she sails upon
a will of clusters bright
blossoms as life of love
into my palms tonight

what shall be brought upon
a fate of tranquil heart
come steal me darling muse
dream through my modest art

of what it seems to be

a rendition of bliss

my love forever lies
