Sand Man is Coming
utkarsh pandey Oct 2018
sand man is coming ,
sand man is sleek .  
sand man is out to find people ,
sitting in downside creek .

Grinning Screaming Drifting wafting ,
groaning soaring fighting flaunting ,
yet fading in the sand ,
with the ashes they did wore .

sand man is coming ,
he quarter down a mile .
chanting the hymns in the air
howling a loud loud noise .

down the stream here they sit ,
confound ashes as the sand .
yet fading in ember of those ,
who waited for the sand man .

like bliss off the clench.
streams of the sand,
have flourished the long sad creek.
sand man has come to rescue for thou,
faded in cold night sleep .

with arms full of holy sand
their happiness did thrive,
inside there pale and weary skin ,
the sand man has arrived.

where art thou ,
asked the holy men.
thee can't touch nor see .
we waited long to hath the sand,
let us bow to you compeer.

bow the earth to look your feet ,
in stream of water and sand ,
your reflection above your feet is me ,
replied the old sand man !

the sand man is me

I took my chances over your smile .
i thought we are going to sink in ,
but we sank a few inches deep
within our own skins .

How long did i sleep?
utkarsh pandey Sep 2017
In the sweater of the winter ferns,
Cozy and sleek.
Warming all my inner self
How long did i sleep?

The skin is colder till the bones,
Dead are the Autumn seeds
The long awaited west wind froze,
Shallow abandoned creek.
On the carpet of this winter belt ,
How long did i sleep?

Of the smile of radiant maiden,
That once made my sunshine dance green,
The leaves that life out of the ground,
Till the life abandoned trees.
That summer of the heaven if dreamt ,

Sleeping in those dying ember,
how long did i dream?

The Unriquited
utkarsh pandey Sep 2017
who is more fortunate ,
One who was once found and yet lost ,
or the one, who was never found at all !

When I go blue
utkarsh pandey Mar 2017
where wind sleek the beaches ,
though the rustling are due .
where the sand doesn't holds ,
any of the sinking hues .
where life flies amidst the rainfall ,
yet the sky is all dawned dew .
where the depth sinks within ,
there is this weary place of the little self ,
where very often i go all blue .

Verge of the darkness
utkarsh pandey Dec 2016
I sit and i stare ,
i glow those thousand flares ,
in the silence with aroma of piece ,
build up by the attar in ferns .

i flew and i fear ,
i cry as i share ,
with the awe of the shade and sky above .

on the edges of night ,
sitting in the verge of the fear ,
when sun is never definit
and the coal inside had smoked up the dark ,
burning it all with a silence in chords ,
like chimneys .
when eternal darkness has it's way to the thoughts ,
end up having those large breaths in fog ,
lasts too long never to fade away .

now i am that weak and that weary ,
that falls on the slurry ,
on and on for the thousand times ,
smile as i lose then start ,
laugh once in all ,
with the wierd clinging in veins ,
as i make free fall .  ,
smile as if there'll be no more edges ahead .

Dog chase
utkarsh pandey Dec 2016
stopped doing these dog chase ,
cause this running made me lame .
limping on the side walks ,
i am probably not the same haha.
A dog never knows what to do with the cars he is chasing , so do the people . This world in a shorter context or in a wider run , ends up pretty well in a dog chase always . The sooner u realize u are running to get the taste of chase without realizing what to do with car , the sooner u should smile and let it go .

the lost
utkarsh pandey Dec 2016
though the ends we may go ,
reward is the journy after all ,
the meaning all along !
i use to always seek out for the meaning in almost everything i came across  , till once i was lost where i did not find any meaning at all . it is only then i realized that the rewards i was seeking for does not suffice enough when achieved . sometimes the journy itself is one true reward  . the journy to build myself was my reward . and was evetually the true meaning all along .

Same old Grins
utkarsh pandey Jul 2016
how beautiful is the idea ,
that we keep .
moreover it's just a seed ,
been planted a little deep ,
which is nourished all along,
to be vulnerable when someone peeks,
how hard is it then to let go of the same ,


things of beauty never last ,
the joy in the bliss of the word great ,
clenched wrist , hard we tried ,
yet they all fade ,
for the thinnest of it , which we belong,
our feet already shaped ,


like the sand on the coast ,
they are vast and ashore ,
when hands been stretched far too long ,
for the land offshore ,


things of beauty , hard to keep ,
while awe of it unfolds ,
the very ounce on the skin ,
moaning the same old chorus .


and for your feet there is few ,
whenever the shape seems small ,
or sand is due ,
i will be glad to offer mine ,
but i am someone off thy shore ,
selling sand ,
far and too forgotten to find.

The Raft
utkarsh pandey Sep 2015
Had the dreams of the future ,
as I stepped into the train,
Life wasn't picture back then,
but outlining of a frame ,
On the walls of freedom.
I could finally feel the rain,
See mommy I came too far,
Simply Walking down the lane,

Leaving home , tying knots I was sitting on the raft ,
Waving hand ,blink of eye I was away from the past,
Life was stretched like the ocean darker and vast,
I was floating on the stream knowing,
Good byes never last.

As my raft lost the stand ,
I saled it up with my hands ,
bonded in , packed the past ,
Left the life to the raft,
And Let it to float , down the stream ,
In cold breeze ,through the wind,

So Here I am in the rain,
Still laughing , and build the frame,
with a picture of the raft,
That keeps floating till it lasts.

With all these laughing barrels,
and groans,the wind passes by.
As the suns too tiered ,
to rush off from the ****** sky,
And the darkness falls off ,
laughing at this chaos in the light,
Fire brightens up the results on the ground,
The quest for being human is not erased nor drowned ,
As dead land under starts moaning a cruel sound,
There is not a bit of life , but fear and enough wound,
The man lying hear are not brought but bound,
To there rusted guns and those shells of bullets,
Only life found is on those smoken cigarettes,
Which once lighten by a living soul,
and dissolved in his breath,
Or on the packet where he packed the last three left,
Like he was willing the sun to shine different sides,
Or it may be packed for some other life,
As if he knew there's no escape
from this hell, this homocide,
For the sake of boundaries ,
and couple of human rights,
Cause the hands of leaders are quite short to climb otherside,
Which ended very well with the picture in his right,
Drowned in blood
pretty hard to recognize

Sachin Tendulkar
utkarsh pandey Sep 2015
there he goes ,
chanted as the legend ,
written on the pitches of the field .
on grass or the dust ,
where it touched his forehead or his feet.
on the hearts of the human,
not the nation or the breed.
riding cricket from too long ,
left his wooden armor,
like singing moan in the peace...

weak skin
utkarsh pandey Sep 2015
Grinning scars of the wound,
carved in my flesh ,
Laughing long since the fall ,
By the edges of the crest,
not the burst of the rage,
nor the tears down the cheek ,
Little me down the curves
may not be what they seek ,

They are laughing they are yelling,
they are out to build a frame ,
Of the courage to let them laugh,
And moan out the pain,

From a old dent on the bump,
That's been smiling from a while ,
And trying to fade off the skin,
laughing a lopsided cry ,
fresh wound always smiles with a grinn , the more it laughs the more pain to endure and then eventually it starts to fade . but as it fades it leaves a scar on the skin to remind us how we fall for it . it reminds us that we are strong enough to withsatnd them . the wound can be inside or on the skin but doesn't matters beacause it always leaves a scar . that's our scars only that makes us to grow .
