Eventually they pay me in rude silenceTurn away from my shadow, bypassing my soul Creating a rift within me, since I start doubting my feelingsVisions bifurcate, there, in front of me two identitiesManipulating my integrity, yet, the world is in motionLife loses momentum, these moments create a dense fogWhat once felt like a dream turns into a miasma of despairTime loses relevance, my reasoning repulsed … Continue reading Recurrent Events
The ageless darkness brings life closer to sleepAnother leap in time, where morning mirrors the changeMultitudes of eternity, soul searching in tired clothesCrumbled dreams like paper, when poor poems are written Darkness conceives light, but the dream of eternity eludesJust like the trees become barren in winterSpring may wake up elsewhere, a forgotten soul will search-Amitav Chowdhury Continue reading Ageless Darkness
Darkness does not feel repetitive…dull morning, detachedDays, like addiction, influence the course of lifeSome force dents the vague boundaries Blunt words kill emotions; yet, passions uncontrolled spurs lifeSeeds of discontent, wild desires tamed transform withinArrested between the roots and their sinister wayward waysToday, if I ask someone, “what’s life?”, I find myself mired in minority complex There are no truthful replies, various modifications of liesDamned … Continue reading Curves of Darkness
Can’t think of the metaphors, now those images are blurrySeeking an opinion on time, a paradox that I can explore aloneIn line, but the stars are not aligned yetSky looks mysterious through the camouflaged scenery I feel even smaller now,for now, the amplified consciousness is asleepInsignificant corner- where the orb is positioned as energy spirals out like fireworks Waiting for pure darkness where I cannot … Continue reading Thinking is a Journey
Constant glare, thousand dilemmas like recurring puzzles Foul moods of the world, every morning, only a brief moment of pure light Constant provocation through stultified languages, messages unsettle the core Cede whatever you’ve gained into the residues of time Note, an artificial intelligence, an unusual feeling of adverse events Actions determined by some forces; beyond your control, a weakening constitution Experimenting with excuses and trying … Continue reading Angry Time
I am busy with the characteristics of being extremely laid back during a busy time Over-embellished designs to keep time, faltering at the original concepts of existentialism Just being there, peeking above the haze, even down there, the earth does not divulge much An ornate interface that displays reality, errs, the overemphasized concepts defy the truth Staring at a screen full of disinformation tickles the … Continue reading Atrophy
Night exploits the timorous light while the universe is busy surrendering As reality blends into a blinding cavern, to never appear again Tomorrow will be hidden like a secret message, yields it not to everyone, elusive Rarely its true nature evolves, before another darkness magically prepares a concoction Of rare lights, unfinished events and stories, souls yearning to decipher the undisclosed fate Reflections like apparitions … Continue reading Manipulative Darkness
The world blinks, it’s momentary, even evades our consciousness Shadows slink and move towards an oblivious horizon Skipping a beat, the heart beckons the mind, a timid response from an hyperbolic instance Without realizing the shift in instincts from the overburdened reality Nothing is realistic, noting down some variety of deviance Rising degrees of conflicts, a perpetual delusion off the hazy landscape Feels unreal, but … Continue reading After the Shadows
Tinged with poignant hues, rippled horizon from night’s lamentations Dulled crimson looks odd on a morning canvas, dreams are barometers of human loneliness Yesterday has a significant influence, whereas, the present looks bewildered In between, a lone man tries to train his eyes to look beyond Thinking,”this too will be washed away”, may be needs another fierce downpour It may either make the world look … Continue reading Dreams after Waking up
Daunting dawn fiery as Hell, trembling particles swept away by furious winds Demure darkness swallowed by a vortex, dreams visited fiendish territories Deepening deception of time, torturing the soul with fiery rage Nude trees, evaporating waters, the bald Earth devoid of feelings Quarreling voices destabilize abodes, wilted will of defeated souls Sputtering and flickering candles, elongated shadows crawling across salty walls Sweltering warnings, refracted rage, … Continue reading Suffocating
