Not Much To Read

Incommunicable conversations are being presented daily. Reams of paper wasted on the storytelling process that leads nowhere. It all gathers somewhere, crowded, and claustrophobically settled there, in a space designated for them. Experiences are commonly perceived through a similar vision. A little difference here and there according to the changing milieu. Uttered prematurely, the stories lose significance and body of feelings. It is difficult identifying … Continue reading Not Much To Read

Hopeful Pen

How far can I stretch my pen I don’t know yet What if the ink refuses to flow even if the inkpot is full The images that will fail to appear to this gloomy world Even the Moons and stars would play hide n seek too often If the canopy of delusions wrap the emotions for too long Would they be able to breathe? When … Continue reading Hopeful Pen

Insipid Ink

Ink loses its energy even before the undernourished pen can hope to be rejuvenated There, a drop of ink still did not lose its sheen and looks healthier than the rest, bottled up, but its colour is fading and even gives off a stale odour A scrawny looking pen still has that edge and fire, its steely resolve glints like a freshly sharpened rapier; from … Continue reading Insipid Ink

Pen

A pen without ink is worthless But extremely lethal too Sitting there in idleness waiting to wield its dangerous nature Like an unforgiving rapier draws deep furrows across helpless blank pages Transforms into a monster Extreme psychotic behaviour; runs amok like a naked sword Distraught and wounded pages Are reminders of a pen without feelings Evils are born from sulking and deep rage Never allow … Continue reading Pen

For the Pen

Lest the pen becomes a slave, and the ink changes its hues without consent There is a conscious appeal of the heart to be loyal to the true sentiments Without suffocating the words with a deluge of emotions, the night is reliable to revise the lines Reticent fingers may hold back the flow of words which can bridge the rifts There will be times when … Continue reading For the Pen

In A Corner

How much can you accumulate in a corner? Everyday stories gathered there over the years Differentiating them is impossible How can one identify the sentiments with a glance? Watching them pile up is a cause for concern Maybe, one day the words will be misshapen from the weight Reading them will be harder; not that anyone showed curiosity They were meant to be cornered against … Continue reading In A Corner

Docile Dossier

The dossier is aware of the truth of life Each line accommodated the real feelings Tip of the pen transferred the frictions Every line ignited the feelings for a moment Before they were extinguished to become memories The pages of the dossier softened the impact Words somehow looked comforting and mellow With every stroke of the pen, feelings were annihilated To bury them between the … Continue reading Docile Dossier

A Drop of Ink

A drop of ink can write the universe The pen works itself according to the feelings Interpreting the sentiments of the soul Every word in cahoots to narrate a story A secret pact to reflect the inner world So effortlessly flows across the blank pages Carefully crafted with love and consideration Truth reflects off the edges of every alphabet A composition that satisfies the writer’s … Continue reading A Drop of Ink

The Enchanting Pen

The pen that holds the magic ink Infusing life to dreams of the Soul Words sprinkled with secret mantra Profound hymns will flow with elegance Mind is a tireless traveler Wandering far and to unknown destinations Collecting the untold stories Eyes of the traveler look for inspiration Even in the rocks and arduous terrains In rendezvous with the silent world Listening to stories that are … Continue reading The Enchanting Pen
