Not afraid!

In the silence the words were clear
In the darkness the image was near
The voice that came straight from the heart
The vision that captivates you like art
Like an ocean that's calm and wide
The men who have cut their chords fine
Not afraid of the solitude, darkness and quiet!

Defeat

She might have lost the battle
But she deserves an olive crown
For her faith and her love for life!
The winner might get all the glory
But hers is a story of survival
Which the fainthearted could read!

Mirror

Delving deep, she discovered
That there is nothing
Which she could call her own
The world, the feelings, the people
All were nothing but an illusion
A reflection of the temporary life

As the world unfolded infront of her
She reflected the vivid images
Like a gleaming mirror
Without any image or song of its own
There was nothing in the world
That she could change or possess!

Words of Burden

They were just words
The only things that she had
It told her story
Of how she felt within
Love, longing, joy and pain
And all that her heart knew

While the world longs for some love
She gave away all that she had
Words of love, longing, joy and pain
Said without any restrain
Life burdened by her words
He begged to be left alone!

March ahead

something doesnt seem to be right
you can't put yourself behind
nothing else should matter but you
for you need to lead on your own
pulling thyself of all the troubles

there is no need to hesitate
nobody is going to stay
march ahead, you will feel stronger
you will see the light in the end
destiny waiting for you with open arms!

Inner voice

There was a voice that I could hear
Coming from nowhere and trying to say
Something that I didn't want to hear

I carried on without caring
And took that hasty step
Despite the warning that I heard

Yet again the damage was done
Misery brought about by an hasty act
Wish as always in the end
That I heeded to my Inner Voice!

For the Kind Brave Souls

This is for the kind brave souls
Who stopped by at the busy junction
To help ease out the traffic chaos

These are the souls that you seldom find
Whom you need to build the nation
Those who keep their self aside
For the better of the world!

A lotus bloomed

The mind fought to conquer the deadly serpent
A manifestation of the selfish love
Emanating from the seat of evil

Struggling to win over the growing serpent
The mind closed its eye and gained strength
And overpowered the vicious creature
As a thousand petal lotus bloomed

Victimised soul

Sick and languishing in the hospital bed
He was struggling to rest his mind
As the telephone rang

Thoughtless would be the caller
Whose incessant calls made him miserable
Unable to move his hand to lift the phone

Destiny played its cruel part yet again
Victimising and torturing an innocent soul
For the thoughtless act of an uncaring mind

The Spiteful Love

You can't blame me now, she said
As she had asked him to kill
The spiteful creature wound around his neck
Slowly choking and leading him to death

She gave it life
Thinking it would bear fruits of love
Not realising that it would turn into a deadly serpent
Leading to misery

It isn't too late, she said
He could free himself of the vicious creature
That has wound itself around him
And making him unable to move

Kill it, show no mercy
Love that hurts isn't true love
Kill it, show no mercy
She wants to be free of the spiteful love!

An ode to a sweet soul

An ode to the sweet soul
Who flew to the land where her roots are

Like a butterfly with tender wings
She amused the curious eyes with her unique beauty

Colourful she was and had lot of stories to tell
Which she did guarding herself from the prying eyes

The dance of the land lured her
Dwelling deep, her body created beautiful images

The divine movements
Creating a stream of visuals connecting you to the world above

She found a new voice to tell her stories
Through the mesmerizing art that overflowed in her heart

Her stories reached far and wide
Spreading the dance of the hinterland that allured her

But would anyone see her as the little butterfly she is
Who once stole the heart of a curious onlooker?

Best Emotion!

He said to nurture Love
No other feeling is worth knowing

Realise the feeling inside you
And share it abundantly

Dont ponder over other emotions
As love is the best to feel and to give!

No more longing for anyone!

She waited in the crowded lobby
For the man who stole her heart

She was waiting for this moment
When her eyes would meet his’

There was so much she wanted to say
Which he could read from her eyes

People pushed past her to get
A glimpse of their favorite idol

He had arrived but with a lady by his side
No ordinary lady she was but a reigning star

They walked past her as though she didn’t exist
But he looked at her for a very brief moment

She couldn’t tell him anything nor could he
Time came to a standstill as she realized

She was a Nobody amidst the cheering crowd
Dejected, she turned to leave dragging herself

As she walked a while the world appeared to light up
She was delighted as everything looked bright and colourful

As though a new world welcomed her
She rejoiced and all her pain was washed away

And she no more longed for anyone!
