The forlorn sky, pale sighs, and night of uncomfortable silence Neath the shed a solitary soul rues the missing stars; a bitter feeling Without disturbing the Earth’s slumber, a dreamer embraces coldness Sky summons the wintry feelings and the dull moon’s melancholy echoes Frail winds barely shake the sleeping souls, but this one soul is awake Waiting for the sweet lullaby before the earth wakes … Continue reading The Silent Night
How often one uses the hands to placate the restive feelings depends on the ability to gather them in a safe place The mind may be, but at this hour it is weary from the persistent turmoil from the contemptuous looks of passersby; the vagrant thoughts Unleashed by some malevolent entities to mess with the authentic thoughts and chase them away unceremoniously So, the mind … Continue reading Forfeiture
Eyes open with the gentle prodding of morning First sigh, it takes time to adjust to the light after a lengthy night Magically sent dreams across the slumberous world It’s the lightness and at the same time it’s enthusiasm that scintillates As dawn emerges from the folds of lazy darkness Whatever was written during the dreams now seem to fade away Few of them linger … Continue reading After Eyes Open
Gazing at the ocean makes me feel small, even a little envious of the vastness Only listening to sounds is enough to make the sunset more mystical than I can imagine Waves are coy, luckily, the feet can feel the playfulness of the ocean’s soul How many worlds are contained in its unfathomable depths? The colossal upheavals may be due to the clash between such … Continue reading Gazing
The language of the eyes need not be obfuscated by million particles of dust Fragments of shattered realities that ne’er passed the test of trust Why slander the destruction that has been guarded by nefarious hands? Alarmed at the awakening of truth; too ferocious a force for them to face When days felt like darkness’s companion, for the nature of betrayal of light Thrown off … Continue reading For the Eyes
I present myself the freedom to be with my thoughts in solitude As I watch the breath trying to control the pace of my life Understanding its rhythm takes time, for they too murmur; it’s another realisation Moments have the liberty of talking to me when I do not measure my breath Eyes hint with a glint, the treasure that has been discovered from the … Continue reading No Distance
All the dreams that rest in a fragile jar Difficulty reaching through the constricted neck Soft night light adds a lustrous mystery Misery reflects in such aggrandized manner Natal thoughts remain in view, yet, unobtainable It could shatter any moment Releasing the dreams that have been captive Only delicate wings are enough For taking them to their destination But the fragile jar lay there in … Continue reading The Jar
The journey from desires to dust Waking up every day with the nudge of first morning rays Pondering over the genesis of this consciousness With every deep-breath trying to identify the scent of this universe What is so intoxicating about the night? One needs to retire from the journey for a brief moment Awaken to the day while the desires still rearrange themselves Secret confabulations … Continue reading Relinquishing an Identity
Sleep folded neatly by the unseen hands of dreams Wintry and reluctant heart feels the cold cryptic night This ethereal moment seen with earthly eyes and dilemma Rest contradicts restlessness for sleep feels a celestial sorcery Slumberous eyes conceive a narrative from tenebrous allure Sweetness of night is like celestial nectar Comfort folds of sleep is willing to cradle the unquiet heart ~Amitav Continue reading Of Sleep
Attempting to visit obscure time Rewinding the thoughts in a convoluted design It’s a feeling inspired from eternity Going back may divulge the missed moments Undesirable then and lack of inclination To comprehend or paucity of intellect When that moment is lost Now won’t be relevant to the past Knotted in time and displayed in universe None can breathe life in retrospect Chastising now is … Continue reading Nothing Endures
