Approaching Darkness-Another Journey

Eventide returning to the darkness again, another surrender, lonely soul sighs Time takes a pause before hiding the shadows; a quiet existence takes over Repetitive goodbye’s, tired soul reminisces the vanishing memories Darkness reverberates through the altered existence, a coexistence of reflections and contradictions Forced dreams are boring, better still, to stroll the deserted paths No hurried movements there, not even a whisper of influence … Continue reading Approaching Darkness-Another Journey

Tensed Fragility

Adamant opinions raise the temper of an already flustered day Too many of them have joined the crowd, now almost resemble an overblown bubble Interesting to see how long the pressure remains subjugated by the reasons Mischievous hands are always there to unsettle the fragile relations Threads of relationships can barely keep the incensed environment under control The settling Sun is in despair, an unrecognizable … Continue reading Tensed Fragility

Forecast

Paleness fades away Apprehensive time welcomes the uncomfortable brightness Exposing unsettled ways of life Nothing green about life Ashed colours are used to camouflage Anguish of so many lost travellers Breeze gyrates in a trance Erasing the signs from the surfaces Created by the fumbling hands Some cryptic messages Night will be intense Mornings will be graceless Less benevolent and hopeful ~Amitav Continue reading Forecast

Periphery of Evening

The poet’s strife with so many issues When the day feels shorter due to the haragnue Unspent mornings turn into uneasy feelings Middle of the day is heavy and stubborn Right before evening moves in There are conflicting signs in the sky It it is a yellow evening tempting the darkness Crimson hue rush in to create a drama There is no time to cleanse … Continue reading Periphery of Evening

Fading Somewhere

A sulking evening is held feebly by the fading light Stories of a day frivolously spent narrate only spite Always a trembling insincerity while visiting a place Celebrations everywhere, but the heart has a grimace Azure skies have been less hopeful earlier in the day Distressed feel from a journey of travellers who stray Slanting light flows into a tremulous and loosened earth Traveller’s memories … Continue reading Fading Somewhere

About the Streets

The streets change their appearances according to dreams and the human spirit Why should a street be defined mundane? Tired feet do not always fill that space There are fresh happy feet too; dancing to the secret tune that plays in the mind Streets light up with the happiness and indomitable spirit- not mere artificial lights End of a day is well celebrated with the … Continue reading About the Streets

During its Absence

Not all evenings you get a glimpse of the moon It may be disappointing, but somewhere in the heart you feel assured Of its presence; probably, feels diminished by the gloominess Those gloomy eyes may have been pleading too much The changing tempers of the moon can be traced back to the cosmic feelings Seasons of the universe casts lesser light on this world Today, … Continue reading During its Absence

Carrying the Burden

Evening carry the burden of the day tirelessly It does so without a complaint; as a responsibility Still manages to keep its tranquillity Settles down and urges life to take it easy Not to rush through the troubles and hastiness Those who may not have listened Argued with the fury borne out of insecurity Thought, without thinking about you Often, the burden of others cannot … Continue reading Carrying the Burden

Evening Festivity

The evening wants to wear a festive look A dream that woke up in the morning wishes to settle down Tired of running around the places at frequent paces The chase is endless, but the threshold draws the line Memories from the frolicsome days now saunter casually Looks like life is uninterested in the stories Difficult going ahead; those flock of thoughts delay A life … Continue reading Evening Festivity
