Some people live like a Weeping

Willow Tree.

Shunned and Short lived.
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2020
I went to the woods
to live nameless and
blameless

While in the crowd
I was called aloud
took blame after blame

Aghast and tired
I went to the woods
to live nameless and
blameless.
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2020

Her broadway smile
sent folks on a
wild goose chase.

Mind:
Always slanting inward.
sinks under its own weight.

For me, it is a play of trauma and regret.

Even in defeat, a person with a triumphant smile on his face is a winner.

Silence is the hymn of the Soul.
Eshwara Prasad Oct 2021
During its plummet to the ocean floor, the pebble wobbled. Once settled at the bottom, it was not bothered by the waves that washed across the ocean's surface, frequently and often violently. Before settling down in the self, the mind like the pebble goes through a comparable journey.
Eshwara Prasad May 2021
Why did you always react in silence?

Marbles on the Church grounds.

Holy Yew trees are waiting for us.

Silence is a spiritual denial of everything that has ever been known to you.
Eshwara Prasad Aug 2022
What's happening is a mystery to me.
Where it will all end is a mystery to me.
I have no option but to whirl with the globe like a lifeless object placed at the edge of a cliff by nature to mystify itself.
Eshwara Prasad May 2021
Tread the un-treaded path.
Think of the inconceivable.
Do the improbable.
Big or small does not matter,
You will be viewed seperately.
Eshwara Prasad May 2022
The Sun rise is stalled.
The Moon rise is skipped.
The Earth deserts its orbit.
Space retreats into nothingness.
Time elopes with infinity.
The dream ends.
Eshwara Prasad Feb 2021
Colors mix well in human painting
but not in human life.
Eshwara Prasad May 2021
Your statements are generally well received, with the exception of the last one: "I have grown to become a celebrated poet."
Eshwara Prasad Feb 2021
Hey, what happened in a moment?
I lost sense of your presence.
I have never experienced anything like this.
Losing myself in an emotional void.
I have to figure out this before I loose sense of my being again.
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2022
In memory of a long lost friend.

You have ripped a hole in my life.
My life hasn't been in rhythm since you filled my heart with memories.
Although you've arrived earlier than expected, your memory has abandoned me. My heart's door is prepared to shut since you decided to stay outside.
Eshwara Prasad Apr 2021
Abrupt loss of imagination
After a flash of your image
before half dazed eyes.
Eshwara Prasad Mar 2022
Wrongly shuffled memories.
Difficult experiences to the fore.
Fond memories strewn about in inaccessible space.
Life always seemed to be a rerun of bad fortune.
Eshwara Prasad Aug 2021
Why is it that everyone paints the future as bleak?
Our future will be bright as ever if we use the right color and brush to paint it.

A shattered heart.
A scattered mind.
Life is insurmountable.

Every leaf on the tree where she grieved every day fell off, unable to take the torment of her suffering.

You said that you had given up on my love.

That is a ridiculous claim!

Nothing that isn't yours can be given up.
Eshwara Prasad Apr 2021
Un-moored time.
Infinity born and
disappeared.
Time in hot pursuit.
Eternity beacons both.
Eshwara Prasad May 2021
You are sitting in an unseen place.
Everyone's story has been written by you.
Drama that never ends.
You see, God, you're just having fun.
Eshwara Prasad Feb 2021
I got the sobriquet
"Poet of the fall"
after my poems
fell to the ground
without life in them.
