The Green Soldier
Vachaspathi Jan 2017
The crops went dry as there was no rain
A year of hard work went in vain
Tears started to flow in his heart from which he couldn't refrain
But the phoenix in him rose from this pain
With a hundred elephants strength he lunged on the field to sow another grain

A Lady in the Stars
Vachaspathi May 2017
Every morning I wake up to your dawning melody tunes.
And every night I sleep listening to your soothing lullaby.

In the light, you became my shadow and eyed my every move.
And in the darkness, you became the light and guided me to the right path.

Your incessant rainfall always watered my parched heart.
And your balmy breeze always drained my teary eyes.

I never felt alone in my life as I was invariably surrounded by the warm atmosphere of your companionship.

Though you reached the stars, you never forgot your chores.
"My mom smiled at me. Her smile kind of hugged me." R.J. Palacio

Unheard
Vachaspathi Aug 2017
The limitless times I try
The countless moments you die
A million instants I cry
I never wondered to ask why
No matter how many number of times I plant a rose on your grave, it keeps whithering implying that the good old times will never be back.

Antique Quote
Vachaspathi Feb 2017
An ant working out very hard may not become an elephant.
But it can definitely become the king of all ants.

Within
Vachaspathi Apr 2017
One day I sat lonely in a lovely lush green field,
watching the gorgeous sunrise and listening to the melodious tunes of birds.
And then out of the blue, I heard a voice which said: "I love you".
That voice was so beautiful and euphonious, and it sent thunderous zeal across my veins.
I instantly fell in love with that and I was set on a pursuit to find it.
In search of that, I sailed many seas, scaled many mountains, and journeyed many skies but still couldn't find my dream figure.
Tired of all these, I sat there again in the same place and closed my eyes.
In all the silence I heard that voice again.
This time very loud and clear.
It came from the inside of me and all this time it was with me.
And at that moment I found my best and most precious friend...within!

A Murderer
Vachaspathi Sep 2019
The day arrived.
Violence raged in my heart.
Thunders deafened my internal voices.
Lightning blinded my senses.
Magma flowed across my veins.
With a single jolt, I decimated all my opponents.
With their blood on my face, I looked at the sky, smiling.
That day I experienced the sky's real blue.
I killed all the fears lurking inside my head for a long time. Things were very different from then.

Shattered Aroma

King's Way
Vachaspathi Nov 2016
There is a path ahead leading to the throne.
The beast started walking on it towards his dream.
Dogs barked, he didn't wink his eyes.
Wolves howled, his thoughts were unperturbed.
Elephants trumpeted, he didn't twitch a muscle.
Tigers growled, his pace didn't slow down .
After reaching the destination, the beast sat on the throne and made a thunderous roar.
All the creatures fell silent and bowed to the conqueror.
That's the way to rule the jungle.

SHE
Vachaspathi Jul 2017
SHE
I swam across the seas of her tears of sadness and tears of happiness.
To truly feel the depth of her.

My Queen
Vachaspathi Nov 2016
There I sat on my throne overlooking the kingdom
Arsenal of various degrees was lying all across the castle
My chest was filled with haughty air that I am the unconquerable
At that moment the door was opened and there came a lady
Her charisma astounded me and my heart skipped a beat
It was as if she cast a magical spell and made my heart feeble
She is the most beautiful women I've ever seen in my life
Like an angel, she came towards me radiating the light of endearment
She held me in her arms and with a silvery voice sang a lullaby
All my king's pride melted down and I slept happily on her shoulders
**That lady will always be my queen

A Lost Bond
Vachaspathi Sep 2019
Solitude has always been my loyal companion.
We were born together. We were raised together.
We had fun together. We always enjoyed each other's camaraderie.
Until that moment, when the radiant smile of yours broke the greatest friendship ever.

The Cry of Rain

Even the pale sky cried pouring down heavily
Washing away the tears in my eyes but not your memories in my heart

Breaking Bond
Vachaspathi Nov 2016
Your love spread across my body like the molten candle wax, providing me with light and warmth;
But the separation ****** out happiness from each and every cell, leaving me with darkness and pain.

Mama

Prisoner
Vachaspathi Jul 2017
Please open the doors of your heart and let me in.
On the veins, I see a clearer picture of myself than on a mirror.*
Your warm oxygen provides me the cool breeze.
The incessant lub-dub is a euphonic melody to my ears.
The freely flowing blood quenches my thirst for love.
*Sentence me to the lifetime imprisonment in this paradise and I'll serve it with the boundless elation.

A Beautiful Possession
Vachaspathi Dec 2017
It sees into the depths where the vision loses its reason.

It listens to the voices when the normal sounds are voided.

It smells the thoughts even when their reach is abated.

It tastes the feelings when the words can't express the emotions.

It feels the touch even when the physical manifestations are separated by countless miles.

What a magical thing our heart is!

The Perfect Crime
Vachaspathi Oct 2019
The evening aided it.
The stars witnessed it.
The lips were the culprits.
Their rendezvous point was the magical deal.
Yes, that was a perfect crime!

Slash
Vachaspathi Oct 2019
Like a knife, she cut my heart into two.
She grabbed one half and left me another.
Never thought sharing would be this blissful.
Vachaspathi Dec 2016
You are not born to be an oasis in a boy's heart.
You are a single grain of sand that makes a beautiful desert.

You are not meant to be a sapling in a man's barren land.
You are a single tree that creates an amazing forest.

You are not a gigantic star that lights up a male's soul.
You are a tiny flick of light that builds an ever-shining sun.

And your existence is not to be a better half of him.
You are defined to be a complete form of yourself.

Healing touch
Vachaspathi Apr 2017
Life is full of violent thunderstorms;
Only you have those soothing arms.
No matter how many difficulties I have in my life, when I rest on my mother's lap and when she gently rubs my head, everything is forgotten and I enter Nirvana.

Transfiguration
Vachaspathi Jan 2018
My parched little heart was flooded with your lofty watery thoughts.
Beautiful flowers blossomed in my barren land.
Greenery was painted on my brownish canvas.
The color of life brought a dazzling rainbow.
What was once a defunct desert transformed into a spirited landscape.
It was all because of you!

Broken Dreams
Vachaspathi May 2018
I slept through the ages submerged in the ocean of broken dreams.
In one we take a stroll in the breezy night. In another, we are separated by an unfathomable distance.
In one my eyes are filled with your beautiful images. In another, there are only tears left behind by you.
In one your gentle touch would fill up all my senses. In another, I am relentlessly greeted by a myriad number of thorns.
Finally, I woke up to end this limbo only to find that the reality is far beyond all these.

Reminiscent
Vachaspathi Jan 2017
My whole life changed when I saw you in that moment
I felt that something was different
My heart rose high with an undying excitement
The places we went
The times we spent
The happiness you lent
“To be together” we were meant
After that unfortunate incident
My heart was left with a huge dent
Not a day passed by without a heavy dose of  lament
I can still remember your scent
And I hope you are with me in the present

A Single Touch

Crossing the infinite skies and shattering the imperishable barriers?

I am waiting for you on a desolate land to get liberated by your gentle touch.

My Angel
Vachaspathi Nov 2017
Under the dark serene night and the star's flickering light
A stroll with you will make me forget the world
A gentle kiss from you leaves the time frozen
Melodies flow through my veins listening to your voice

Like an oyster containing a precious pearl
There you are in my arms, my beautiful little girl

A Beautiful Purpose
Vachaspathi Aug 2019
A star wandered in the infinity.
Unbeknownst of the milieu.
Oblivious of the hunting sardonic.
Resistant to the light-years of distance.
Transforming gnawing pain into pleasure.
When it finally reached the top of the universe, all it remembered
was her mother's smile at the starting point.

Bohemian
Vachaspathi Nov 2016
A person who wears 100 dresses of same design looks the same every day, whereas a person who wears 2 dresses of different designs looks different each day.
Break the routine, give a daily shock to your brain, wear different thoughts and see how different the world is.

The Merrier Murder
Vachaspathi Mar 2020
Slay me with a sword forged with love.
The heart you will steal was always yours.
The blood that will spew carols your name.
And the life that comes out will occupy your heart's estate.

War
Vachaspathi Nov 2016
War
The soldier pointed the gun at the lad who stood on his knees
He is heavily wounded and is bleeding profusely
Before pulling the trigger, the soldier thought for a moment about the lad's mother
The months of pain it took her to conceive him, years of struggle to raise him, and the lifelong joy of motherhood he gave to her
All will be burned to ashes in a fraction of second
But then he remembered the sorrow of thousands of mothers who lost their daughters and sons
The soldier took a heavy breath, closed his eyes and did the deed
With tears in his eyes and a heavy soul he left the battlefield
**The soldier won the war on the ground but lost in his heart
