This illusion is a deceitful toy You have no idea where to repose Fidgety fingers and throbbing heart Palpitating life under duress Wiping off the forehead with grimy hands Leaking toy messes with the hands Whether to play with it or destroy? Miserable thoughts guide the hand Are the sighs and pain worthy? Feeling guilty for every action Not being busy is a cursed syndrome … Continue reading The Illusion
Feelings aren’t expurgated; they do not carry the same innocence once it gets caught in that act Conditions of the heart become feeble when harsh conditions are dictated by an oppressor World’s obsession with curbing the natural enthusiasm has distorted the meaning of love With all those frozen emotions losing their charm flow aimlessly like a forgotten brook through a dark forest Taut nerves form … Continue reading Fatal Obsession
Love for vanity is a prejudiced affair Like asking a coiffeur to style the look according to the present social norm So the mirrors get confused with the similarities and stop reflecting the truth The smoky armour helps hide the amorous adventures with affable imageries Drama of the tragi-comedy unfolds with the characters mouthing profane insanities Towering pride becomes the most ostensible symbol of foolish … Continue reading Some Intentions
Time meddling with this reality leaves everyone breathless There’s no respite from the busy detours and tortuous paths Complicated time unable to answer simple questions Transforming the mind into a careless narrator of stories Conspired by the shadow of a reality stolen from darkness’s womb Stories amateurishly plagiarised by careless storytellers Seeding doubts across the furrows of the earth Time eventually crinkles; chastised by moments … Continue reading Inessential Time
Unmindfully crossing the line that separated the different from indifference One who does not identify the similarities but chooses a dissimilar approach Pretending to be virtuous is a risky game played to deceive the unsuspicious souls Actors of the finest grade essaying the conniving character with conviction Inferior souls delirious from the intoxicating purpose to amass fortunes The consciousness surrendered while the heart and mind … Continue reading Unmindful
False language articulated by deceptive tongue Ambivalent heart has never been unaware of the subtle insinuations Many attempts have been made to scheme a grand plan Lure the heart to follow devious routes Aggrandized dreams always arouse the desires of infamy Why curse fate? Weakness reconciles with the Machiavellian plans If not in entirety, some inclination towards avarice made the choice Indulging in and supporting the opulent lies Life … Continue reading Actions Speak
Time’s calligraphy etched across the skin After brushing off the inherited innocence Is time playing a game with the mind? A ploy to hasten life across indecisive streets Perceived to be a two-way journey Cryptic decorations narrate a contrary story Often busy to read the subtle hints Without caring to open the subliminal repository Significant things become trivial Outgrowing and wanting to feel the liberation … Continue reading Written By Time
Venerable feelings deflect off a dormant heart There is an obstinate silence reverberating in the chasm A space filled with boundless indiscretions In desolation there is an endless churning of emotions Even the oasis transforms into a mirage Parched heart bereft of the pleasure to satiate agonising thirst Impassive eyes are resuscitated briefly with lust Seduces the gullible feelings that overflow with melancholy The hunger … Continue reading Directionless
It is not about the I But more of a failed promise To live without the encore Of collective decisions Mistakes adjusted Accepted and included False assurances Only led to beliefs Myopic vision Only suffering Reigned feelings Traps of beliefs Promises extracted From undecided minds Mourn the loss of freedom Repent and defend Simultaneous failures Exaggerated claims Stagnation Morsels taste bitter Forced down To satiate … Continue reading Towards Freedom
Perceptions ensnared by expectations Unsympathetic conversations fuel every debate Relationships of discomfort puncture hope Constant derision of heartfelt feelings Nurturing the forest birthed from delusions Soulful utterances walk aimlessly like a lost child Deep and dark woods absorb negative energy Convoluted indistinct paths ambush true love Humane sentiments perceived to be a weakness Disguises are chosen with alacrity Poisoned arrows fill the quiver with … Continue reading Lost Wanderers
