What you think of the stars change according to the celestial haze Trying to trick the mind while it interpolates subtle ideas in a dreamy state One moment they seem to be stationary while they quickly change to blinking wonder Their characteristics are birthed from a dark faraway world, yet, they shine brightest The dichotomy of darkness conceiving light is a puzzling interstellar phenomenon None … Continue reading What you Think
It’s the obscurity of musing heart Eyes appear to see this heart in different light Lost in the harangue of companions Hoping there is clarity Array of sentiments fail to communicate Dauntless spirit still wishes for love Amulet protecting from unknown indignations Fervent dreams aspire to be born every day In the invincible cradle of life Let the fire of arguments extinguish Waiting for the … Continue reading It’s a Wish
When there are too many images, the eyes settle down on the quietest Or, the most noisiest; seeking attention with two contradictory emotions Moods of the day decides to play favoritism, but a kind heart does allow little revelry As they complete the ecosystem of creativity Sacrificing the image of an I to get a chance to wonder at images ~Amitav Continue reading With Images

Vehemently we have misinterpreted desire Delved into our ignorance to create caricatures Such divine energy dissipates in superficial pursuits Ignorance paints a reality for us to live with Elysian truth abandons the distracted souls Entire reflection of love and desire is a mirage Weakening souls cannot preserve the sanctity Flames of passion become an uncontrollable inferno Leaving paradise barren with singed hopes Other elements of nature watch, … Continue reading As Destiny Unfolds
