On which side of reality I would be in I speculate on the truth of reflections from life Often the arrival of dreams are tied to time Nothing honest exist in the inexplicable illusions Razor-sharp gaze barely trouble the superficiality Untimely interventions perforate the moments I cannot hold on longer as I witness their escape Interwoven existence in the acquired realm Not enough space for … Continue reading Do I Choose Anymore
Lights have mellowed and have become distant Buried feelings wouldn’t wake up until the warm hours Vacant spaces is where the mind wishes to reside Intrigued by the anonymity of a weak apparitions Of a world unfolding in front of a spurned reality Uprooted relations try to find the depths of secure land Blaming thyself while holding the hands apprehensively Powerless to move ahead across … Continue reading Hope You Have Within
Could have been a delightful morning If I could remember the pleasant dream Abruptly erased, for I failed to embrace them dearly All these worries rush in without my consent Time descends toward uninspiring and dark depths Where the brightest have to surrender Tiring pace of monotony and the monochrome days Early shadows across the new-born light Their fading brilliance is an ominous sign ~Amitav Continue reading Fading
Oeuvre of the undisguised heart, at moments of ecstasy Entirely unbridled, expresses the feelings in a joyous rhythm Thoughtless during the most busy times; careless glances at the day Taking the morning away, from the clutches of mundanity To the most safest place, where the wandering imaginations visit A sacred place, amidst a secret location, landscapes of profundity Verdant reflections, resonance of voices from another … Continue reading The Desired Space
Surprising glimpse of rustic images Sleeping city in the foetal position Dreaming of a primeval world Continuing with the traditional sleep Vanishing haziness expose the pureness Longing of the soul arise at predawn Fading of the artificial barriers Cleansing of an overused canvas Crushing so many desires and colours Imploring everyone to identify them Subjugating energised pure imaginations Concealing truth in deceptive designs Darkling landscapes … Continue reading Emerging
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
Eyes must have been closed while dreams chose to appear Another way of viewing another reality in a surreal moment Someone, the omnipresent one, must have risen them Go visit the homes enveloped in a tranquil kind of darkness Those who have walked a tiresome journey across rubbles Where reality has been suspended from a high tower Consciousness still at its infancy and feelings of … Continue reading For Those Who Wait
A kind of surprise on the face The bottomless reality is exposed Only loneliness amidst nothingness Who reigns that reflectionless space? Darkness is also consumed there Faint outlines are visible to mortals Feels like an insidious reality unfolding The entangled spine holds a secret Lone souls have been trapped here Can they be awakened by a mantra? Slow murmurs reflect astral voices One who dwells … Continue reading Seeking And Unfolding
Morning fails to reach all the corners of the room That of yesterday, and even earlier, been kept away from everyone Convenient corners are filled with those memories Latticed patters decorate them for some time and leave There is no scope for the morning language to initiate a conversation Those stories have a secret language and a special fragrance Accommodating them and even keeping them … Continue reading Where Light Cannot Reach
It is uneasy sitting in a crowd and witnessing a burlesque show The light around dips and flips, and takes the elements of fun away Wide-eyed, useless curiosity in the communications that are mundane No one desires to rush outside; wonder, the freedom the auditorium offers In between, the pantomime also fails to mesmerise the tedious audience Thunderous applause after the failed satire on the … Continue reading Is It an Uneasy Show?
