Cowardly beings surge ahead in a grand show of mayhem Smokescreens everywhere, a marvelous ploy of stifling relationships Falsehoods are more relevant; wrapped in alluring words Streaks of wickedness flashes like the overpowering devil’s eyes Shrillness echoes in a cunningly designed dome that cage souls Hoping for servility from the multitude in a dazed state Growing at will the seeds of discord in the early … Continue reading Why We Disagree
Silly defiance scrapes through every settled alternative Slipping further into a state of turmoil- harsh times ahead Stories nebulous, a decry… all truths have to be obliterated Signs of forgotten memories, missing ages, unclear narratives Stiffened hearts have to bear the burden of explicit lies Straddling across the undulating and rough paths is uneasy Stupefying ignorance- defies all the reasons from other ages Striking indifferences, … Continue reading Stunning Imbalance
Clever eyes, clandestine eyes, crude eyes, and curt eyes With all their passions, focus on the peaceful gait of life Poor light, peevish days, and the stealthy pandemonium Hoarse calls to destabilise the half-conscious flow of life A dilettante’s explanation of the nature of existence Feeble fonts are written frantically with the frail hands A space too wide to monitor and even comprehend Enemies emerge … Continue reading It Happens, Eventually
Frazzled dreams fall through the wily chaos Extracted easily; the fragile roots, with subtle remainder of hope Traces of survival clings to them- the fear of being placed in insecurity Of an unconnected fear grips the reality The precariousness is real What about those dreams and their inability to understand their language? The friendly gestures aren’t translated well Imposed constraints of the enemies form a … Continue reading Roots of Dreams
The squirming narratives infest the consciousness Scurrilous thoughts spewed by the ones affected Potent venom incapacitates the sensitivities The vitriol that’s within become the staple language Feelings drown in an acrimonious world Looking for sympathisers- egotistic thrust from a clan Pour over; even drown forever in the lethal quagmire ~Amitav Continue reading Drowned in Despair
Troubled relationship with time Frantic hand gestures upsets its feelings Thorny moments wound themselves- like barbed wires Time perpetually swayed by time’s temper Upheavals in reality and sinister transformations Reminisces too calculatingly segregates memories Different apartments- like uncomfortable neighbours they quarrel Mind is a swift drifter; trying to find solace in frantic thoughts Frail glorification of life, and touching those desert plants Means, the fingers … Continue reading As it Drifts
The darkness does not decide or discriminate between fiends and friends It’s the men that doubt the intentions after many harrowing times with misplaced stories Why blame the weak sun and as the beautiful Moon is about to awaken? If the lies within are superior to the will of a man trying to stay away from them, the triumph and disaster is decided Allowances of … Continue reading Who Decides
A night is immolated in the morning pyre Ridiculed dreams were unable to rest through the night Suffering in silence; darkness prowled the landscape They sought refuge in the heart, but there was no escape Farcical day gathered an audience to applaud Dreams suffered the ignominy in silence Banshee’s call prepares them for an eventual fate ~Amitav Continue reading Sacrifice
Raging flames can be pacified and controlled, but always be aware of the cinders. ~Amitav Continue reading Being Cautious
Of all the tussles in the world Most strenuous is the tussle with oneself Leaves you vulnerable and bare An invitation to the perfidious ones to exploit Your paradise left at the mercy of lies Every drop, corroding away the foundation of trust You will be put on a pedestal of judgments More fabricated stories will ruin your reputation Like wild fire getting a new … Continue reading Perfidious Intentions
