Forevermore.

Forevermore, I'll keep shining through your eyes.
You'll see me, twinkling in the radiance of these forlorn skies.
Forevermore, my dear.
You'll always fear the hell from heaven.
Like a burning scarecrow, terrifying the raven.

***

 

Forevermore, I'll shall be the one.
Until you won't see no sun.
You'll find me in my words,
like an oasis emerging from an arid desert.
Forevermore my dear. Forevermore.

***

 

You have no clue, how timeless are you?
Across the perimeter of this paradise, you shall find a stone.
Burnt from a flame of regret.
It's been lying there all alone.

***

 

Forevermore, the doors shall remain closed.
For you've lost the key.
Ask me anything and that's what I'll be.
Forevermore, there's nothing left to say.

Oh yes, this is eternity's end.
As we call it, the judgement day.
Forevermore, my dear.
Forevermore, until I say goodbye & go away.

***

 

Forevermore, I'll be waiting for your answer.
It's an unreal test of time,
A lemonade without a slice of lime.
Forevermore, my dear.
Until, you hear my whispering voice,
diminish gradually among this noise...

Saturn Angel

Saturn rings, please me my dear.
Snowy white skin.
As she smiles, people lose their minds.
Orgasmic insanity.
The thrills of watching her socialize.
Brunette hair, gently falling over her shoulder.
Can you imagine this mystical goddess?

***

Tiny arms holding that giant cellphone.
She has the whole world in her hands.
Louis Vuitton seems too heavy for you, may I help you with that burden?

***

Glimmering black eyes, wipe out all your pain.
Blissful aura.
Isn't she just perfect?
Fashion sense has reached a new level.
She makes you feel so insignificant!
After all, angels have their own arrogance!

***

She has the ability to make words lose their meaning.
Fire has already lost its charm.
Are you even reading,
Or are you busy fantasizing?
Never mind.
Even the gods are jealous of her boon.
They've hid themselves behind the moon!

***

Crimson lipstick, of bleeding broken hearts!
Turquoise amulet, shines of crystalline light.
Where will you hide? Even her glance is an art!
Here & now, gone with the sea.
You see nothing but her face, in your sight.
So, would you mind trying?
Or just keep looking at her, crying?

***

Say it.

Strum that six string, 

under the stars.

I know you've got a beautiful mind.

A fragile heart, cracked open wide.

Write your songs,

on this canvas of scars. 

***

Talking to yourself.

Floating somewhere far.

Pitch black tar,

within your brooding soul.

There's no coming back from this abyss.

You're failing every time you try.

Stuck between your love & desire.

No one has seen you cry.

***

You keep gazing mindlessly,

that void in your eyes.

Say something, 

I know you're broken inside. 

Just for a moment,

please let go off that insane device.

Together, 

let's overcome this great divide.

***

Sometimes there's no one else,

for what we need.
I hope you understand.

You've lost everything you had.

Come on, speak up my friend.

Don't make them plead.

It really hurts,

to see you sad. 

***

You're elegant with your words,

show her what she means to you.

The queen of your world.

I know,

you still haven't given up.

It's about time,

enough is enough!

Say it, my friend.
You'll eventually die with your pain.
Say it, 
You won't feel that special thing again.
Say it, my friend.

Before you slip in your state of trance.

Say it,

for it's your last chance...

*** 

Death Star.

Places in my head,

everywhere I go.

Never seem to know.

Delusions of an utopian paradise.

My sight paints a view.

The translucent window,

always breaks open to something new.

***

The truth isn't in your mind.

I've seen the rivers flowing through the caves.

And the ships floating above the waves.

A gentle voice, always comes from within.

The sound of your heart skipping a beat.

Asking you to grab your seat.

***

Maps leading to an unknown treasure.

The happiness about finding certain pleasure.

On your way to find the bud.

Everyone has ignored the sea of blood.

Black skies full of darkness & dope.

Angels scatter all over, 
spreading their divine light.

Tiny spots of glimmering hope.

***

The journey's been fine so far.

You've been strolling towards your star.

Reach and capture what you seek,

as your existence depends on it.

Keep digging my friend,

deep within that lie.

You'll feel high, oh so high!

But only until, 

you watch your star die...

***

Hey There!

Hey there, let's go on a walk!

Through the garden of lillies.

Do you feel the need to talk?

I've been too silly.

There's a golden diamond, 

within your eyes.

A basket full of beautiful skies.

***

Hey there, let's go on a long drive!

Along the downtown alley.

In that empty room, are you still alive?

The sky is drowning off the valley.

What should I say, 

never knew the way.

We're all nothing but actors, 

in this life's play. 

***

Hey there, are you listening to me?

Let's follow the migrating birds!

I'm sorry, I wasn't the way you wanted me to be.

My heart's been playing around with words.

I don't know how to deal with this solitariness.

I guess, the poem speaks for itself.

***

Isolation.

These days I'm a bit reclusive.

Never realized how alienated I feel.

I recognize you,

maybe you do too.

We greet each other with a lie.

A fake hello and a goodbye.

***

Something's strange.

I feel so isolated.

Didn't realize, 

so many folks have gone astray.

I've lost my friends in this life's fray.

***

Are you still on the same page,

Where we last looked up?

Or have you burnt the book,

 and maybe fucked up.

This ain't a fairytale.

 Unless you finish that ale!

***

Gazing into your eyes.

The light that enlightens my soul.

I find it missing.

I snap out of that maze,

searching for a clue.

Afraid, that I'm gradually losing you.

Don't you go away too soon.

We still have to disembark,

on our journey past the moon.

***

You call me your friend.

But that's a dead end.

You know nothing about me.

Can't see beyond the walls,

you're only allowed to read the graffiti.

Inside here, I'm the king of my own city.

Sorry, we don't have that connection anymore.

Oh! You were so close, 

to breaking my isolation door...

***

Conversation.

Saw her at the cafeteria today,

sitting two tables across.

I was with my friends,

she was with another guy, 

who probably looked like my boss.

***

I think she saw me there,

we exchanged glances slyly.

I wanted to talk to her,

but I knew it'd be awkward.

The guy left within an hour,

And now she was sitting alone.

"Come on, go ahead talk to her"

cried my inner tone.

I rose from my chair,

proceeding towards her table.

Everything felt like an unusual fable.

***

"Hello, nice to see you here!", I said.

"Oh, hi dear!" she replied.

"Mind if I join?"

"Yes, Of course! 

So long, haven't heard from you. 

Where on earth have you been?" she exclaimed!

"Haha! I might ask you the same question!"

We laughed and talked for hours,

reminiscing about our old memories.

Her voice felt like a nectar, 

dripping from the honeysuckle flowers! 

Glad, I broke the ice with a knife.

I was having the time of my life! 

***

Suddenly, I felt a pat on my back,

the guy with whom she was sitting earlier was back.

"Get up!" he screamed.

His words kept ringing in my ears,

until I went deaf.

He splashed the glass of ice cold water,

right on my face.

And the next thing I realized,

I woke up perplexed.

"Get up! You sleepy ass!",

shouted my friend.

I was still at my table,

but she had already left...

***

I couldn't conquer, 

the walls of my ego and pride.

Maybe I was too shy,

But damn, I didn't even try.

I screwed up my chance.

And now when I look back at that dream,

it was the best conversation I ever had!

*** 

Will You Be My Friend.

Set ablaze from the fire,

I burn bright like the sun.

Will you be my friend, dear?

For I'm an excellent seer.

 

***

 

Frosted cold, in this daylight.

I reflect wisdom from your glaze.

Will you be my friend, dear?

If I told you my end is near.

 

***

 

Never curbed my imagination.

Vivid and boundless.

Infiltrated and pure. 

Always wondering, 

what makes you so special.

Is it the beauty or the cynosure.

Will you be my friend, lady?

The future seems unsure, 

And yes, there's no cure.

 

***

 

Just by standing over their viewpoint,

You won't see things clearly.

Brain dead, among these folks.

I seek an asylum for my convictions.

I know you won't be my friend,

but will you at least be my foe?

Like the buck and a doe.

***

 

Indifferent perceptions,

discrepancies between our hearts.

Accompany me, 

we'll travel on the wings of my dreams.

To see, what no one has ever seen.

To be, where no one has ever been.

To feel, what no one has ever felt.

I can't experience this felicity,

all alone.

Oh lady, will you be my friend?

Together we'll transcend beyond,

 these conventional worldly trends.

***

 

 

Monsoon.

Whisperings and ramblings,

the serene weather has it all.

Of migrating flamingos,

visiting over for a brunch.

Birds snuggle,

cozying inside their nests.

***

The perishing grass, 

still hasn't given up on its hope of survival.

Hot vapours arising from that teapot,

condense away your troubles.

Nostalgia creeps deep within your head,

Showers of relief, 

sing a cradle song for you to sleep.

***

Earthworms surface over,

welcoming this pleasant visitor.

Frogs hopping around, 

bubbling with happiness.

As the first few drops crash upon,

earth soaks in its tenderly love.

Aroma of partly wet soil,

hangs loosely in the air.

Oh, the melody of this tranquility.

***

Come with me, we'll saunter across the hills,

I know a place to rest!

Come lay with me, under these dark clouds.

Close your eyes, 

relish yourself in this soothing ambiance.

We need no one now,

just the two of us.

Mild drizzles, they fall.

Listen carefully my friend.

As the sky croons,

to mark the onset of monsoon!

***

The Golden Kid.

You came into this world,
spreading smiles all over.
Your infant tenderness, 
made everyone melt with happiness.

***

A curious lad, 
you grew up fast. 
To learn the secrets,
Moon revolves round the earth,
and the Earth revolves round the sun.
Exploring this vast ocean of knowledge,
drip by drip,
Oh back then,
it was such fun!

***

You became their golden kid,
a diamond bead,
for their ornament of pride.
They loved you a lot.
After all, you were their best shot!

***

But, things change pretty quickly,
Unfortunately.
You committed mistakes and failed.
Shattered confidence, defeated aspiration.
You lost your motivation,
to the perils of procrastination 

***

The fear of losing again, 
made you hide away someplace far.
The one who had never lost a battle,
was now gradually losing the war!


  ***


Labelled a disappointment,
by this sycophantic society.
Broken from within,
the burden of expectations,
they took you down.
A laughing stock,
they treated you like a clown.
You cry and yelp, 
screaming for help,
 as you drown.

***

You were always the golden kid.
Everyone expected you to succeed.
Your will to fight back,

it has died.
Lonely and miserable,
no one by your side.
Oh no! Don't do that!
So what if you've lost every hope?
You just can't quit on life,
to hang yourself,
from that bloody rope!

***

Open books, unfinished words.
A last letter beside the burnt cigarette.
 They gaze at your lifeless body,
weeping with regret.
Tears come rolling, 
off their eyes
Watching the flames, 
rise into the skies.
The stench of pulverized dreams. 
Nothing can be done now,
It's too late.
As they helplessly watch, 
their golden sunset...

***

Beautiful Betrayal!

We walked hand in hand, 

strolling across the seas.

Happiness knew no bounds,

Away from a world full of fallacies.

***

Twinkling hazel eyes,

It's quite a sight!

Enchanting smile.

Shimmering like the moonlight, 

along the aisle.

***

A solitary star sinks,

beyond the shore.

No matter how hard it tries,

it's still gonna kiss the floor.

***

It's not love.

It's not lust.

As I go wandering for you,

amidst stardust!

***

Follow the graffiti,

Oh, let's flee!

I don't even care,

Let's meet our destiny!

***

"I love you!" she says,

the warmth of her embrace.

But then, there's this sudden rush of pain,

as she slowly stabs that knife inside my back.

Gradually her grip goes slack.

Astonished, 
I contemplate into her lovely eyes,

Wondering why.

Confused,

whether to smile or to cry.

***

Disguised as a dove,

You cast a charm of love.

It's funny how I never knew.

All along,

it was none other than you!
Words fail to describe, 
your deceptive portrayal.
I still can't get over, 
this beautiful betrayal!
 

***

  

Desire.

Curls of your desire,
strangle me to death.
I try so hard,
to free myself.
But end up abiding, 
onto your breath.  

***


There's something strange between us,
a bond of  predilection.
Jiggling between lust and passion, 
on a thin line of expectation.

***

This feeling I've got nowadays,
too vague to call it an ambition.
Like an impulsive black hole,
floating across the milky way.
Its greed of swallowing this universe,
causes the galaxies to go astray.


***

Inclination knows no boundaries.
As hovering smoke,
within the fires.
Your desires,
they'll eventually burn you down.
And even if you have the town,
you shall still keep craving, 
for that golden crown.

***

A Potential Date!

Sing me lullabies,

we'll fall asleep with the flow.

Gaze with me, at the skies.

How far can we go?

***

Silence has lost it charm,

inner voices scream anew.

Frondescence of a beautiful farm,

Cascading drops of  autumn dew.

***

Don't you leave, 
I'm not done yet.

Oh wait.

Well, at least have a cup of coffee with me.

We'll enjoy a good book maybe,

or let's just go on a date!

***

And then he comes, 
in his black limousine.

Lends her a hand & off she flies.

It's fine, 

the guy's rich.

Never mind, 

she was a bitch!

***

Your memories,

they vanish in the ember.

I finish my hot coffee,

as I wake up from my slumber...

***

Surreal Imagination.

Howling dogs, hooting owls.

Stars obscured behind the clouds.

Cool breeze stroking my head, 

as I fly.

Rustling leaves beneath the sky.

 

***

The night begins with dusk,

ends with dawn.

Searching for my dreams,

I stroll this vast expanse of lawns.

 

***

 

 

Tired, I crawl into my bed.

For dreams are my only solace, 

from this terrible pain, 

the misery of infatuation.

***

The glaciers melt, 

reflecting light from the oceans.

Deeper & deeper, the treasure lies.

the chest full of perceptions.

Oh, seek the profound devotion.

 

 

***

 

I find you sitting inside a pearl.

Smiling at me, conjuring my visions.

Just then, I discover the harsh truth.

Broken hallucinations.

 

***

 

You're gone, 

I can't feel you now.

Sitting inside the pearl,

I lock myself with my shadow.

Such desolation.

I wait for the morning sun,

 to wake me up and end this surreal imagination.

***

Is it over? Yet?

 

 

What Would You Do? (Song)

Speak your heart, every time they said.

Free your mind, never be afraid.

The guns are blazing, across the wall.

How can you rise, if you don't fall...

Burn your ashes, in vanishing skies

Keep trying, till they despise.

Cause, what makes you old, will make you wise.

Don't you trust, every one's disguised.

Chorus: What would you do?

When you're drowning too deep...

What would you do?

When the nightmares haunt your sleep...

What would you do?

When your life is all broke...

What would you do?

Would you fight back or hide under a cloak...

 Your fears they scream, louder than your hope.

You're too fucked up, so you just dope.

Never say die, your dreams they yell.

When your beautiful heavens, turn into hell.

Chorus: What would you do?

When you're drowning too deep...

What would you do?

When the nightmares haunt your sleep...

What would you do?

When your life is all broke...

What would you do?

Would you fight back or hide under a cloak...

Win your battles, my dear friend,

Don't let them drag you, to the end.

Struggle and snatch, what's been yours.

Why knock, when you can break the doors?

Chorus: What would you do?

When you're drowning too deep...

What would you do?

When the nightmares haunt your sleep...

What would you do?

When your life is all broke...

What would you do?

Would you fight back or hide under a cloak...

Whispered at the end:  (Do your best. Forget the rest.)

Seclusion.

Come enter my dreams.

My own world, where happiness beams.

Secluded from reality,

lies a playground of fun.

Slide past the rainbow or swing past the sun.

***

Discover the truths that lay behind this universe.

Believe in what you see.

Break out of this curse.

Make yourself free.

***

 

Enjoy what you love, 

this place is endless and without fears.

But when you wake up,

make sure you don't stay here.

The brutal reality slaughters your dreams.

Crying in pain, your soul screams.

***

Everything seems pale and gray.

Put aside that ash tray.

Mildly intoxicated thoughts, wander wild.

Don't you kill your inner child.

***

Demonic intrusion deceives morality.

Social seclusion breeds finality.

***

Twilight.

Sinking clouds, beneath the hills.

Glow worms hovering,

over the tangerine sky.

Crescent Moon,

arising beyond the smog,

the blinding fog.

Fragmented glimpses of interstellar beauty.

***

The dust settles, 

on sleeping caterpillars,

Freezing cold scatters all over.

Hanging upside down, 

the squeaking bats,

 muddling with this melodic silence.

Fireflies pervade the trees,

Birds singing lullabies.

***

Serene ambiance,

extensive paradise.

Of calm river and blooming water lilies,

the ripples disperse, across the land.

Mystical oculus, 

receding candlelight.

Of creeping shadows,

and hooting owls,
Together they all,

bask in this glorious twilight!

The Martyr.

He was panting,

 choking for air, he couldn’t run

“I’m sorry. I’ll give you anything! What do you want?” he cried

“Nothing, just your life, bastard.” I said

The bullet released itself from the gun,

penetrating his heart, his life began to fade.

***

Silence stuck across the aisle.

Death gripped his soul,

thrusting him into an abyss.

Life drifted away another mile.

Heavily, he collapsed on the ground,

losing control.

*** 

I smiled, as he breathed his last,

Lighting the cigarette from my pocket,

soaking in the tobacco vapors,

as time slipped past.

Leading an isolated life,

being a killer is never easy.

Death is my only friend

Betraying him every time,

made my life dizzy…

***

The noise of wailing sirens grew louder,

It seems the cops are here!

The sound of footsteps approached closer, towards the dark.

One by one they rummaged near the motionless corpse,

sniffing it, the police dogs bark.

***

 

“He’s dead, Sir”

“Yes.”

“There are more..”

“Hmm..” I replied

Walking past the horde, my eyes glistening with lust.

I crushed the cigarette under my feet.

Another one died, another life gone to dust..

As of Death,

Death will some day cheat.

And when that day befalls,

The bitchy karma, will be there to greet!

***

 

I languidly strolled ahead,

to discover the terrors behind the wall

There was a slight movement

But before I could react,

the resonance of gunshots filled the hall

ONE, TWO, THREE AND FOUR…

The bullets pierced my body.

I crumbled on to the floor.

***

My vision started to dwindle,

As, I recollected the voice of my father.

“Bless me Dad, I’m leading from the front!” I said

“Go on my brave lad, make your country proud!”

Dad, I guess this is it,

finally, death and I meet..

I lay there silently,

amidst the chaotic flood,

in a crimson pool,

of my own blood.

***

I gradually detached myself,

 from this world,

as the other side,

of the dusk unfurled…

***

Don’t You Grow Up, My Child!

The morning sun, gleaming through your eyes

The cool breeze, caressing your gentle smile.

The world stands before you, waiting to be explored

Your curious innocent mind starts wandering,

through the mysteries that sprawl in its woods.

***

 

Your desires tempt you,

towards this mystic illusion

But, don’t you grow up my child,

for this world is just an immense void of seclusion.

***

 

This endless utopia you seem to relish,

is on the brink of its closure

Make sure you exploit it,

before you find yourself surrounded by greedy ambitions and fuckin’ hypocrites.

***

You’re whining and throwing tantrums, I see,

to abscond, from your cradle full of toys and flee.

You’re aching to walk on your own,

with all the strength in your tender bones.

You’re bored crawling on the floor

But, don’t you grow up my child,

you’ll eventually walk out through the front door,

to explore this world full of ambiguous fallacies,

And, I won’t be able to see you anymore…

***
