When Time springs to life and I feel that I exist, in a reality still preserved It’s rarely true when life is not defined by common approvals, only if I trust their agreement An escape from the common desires, not tired anymore from the compulsory contracts Constructing a dwelling out of pure freedom where I can dream Suffering from perceptions is not my deal, and … Continue reading Rare Moments
Brief moments of respite Sidestepping the tumult Growing protests and chaos Tranquillity is necessary If, still fond of life Time to entwine Emotions and patience Facing the stiff challenges The soul may be weary Dreams are necessary To steal from the darkness Some sanity, stealthily Temporarily overshadowed Light will be there If one has to walk Tirelessly through uncertainty Courageously, seeking answers From the ancient … Continue reading Arriving
If not for the quietest moments The words would have escaped Surreptitious knocks on consciousness An unaware soul dreaming of missed opportunities Trying to kindle the pallor flame The world painted gloomily in mundane hues Staying away is not an escape Many perceptions create a hurdle Welcoming the words gracefully Inspiring the ink to flow with unbridled energy Silence is a guide and a … Continue reading Quietest Moments
A different world would make a difference, so the dreams say Is there any reason, not to believe in the quiet insurrection Hopeful times, the symbolism of life, the recurring motifs Choosing the powerful talisman for the soul, a conscious mantra Some dreams last forever… waiting, just behind the veil of reality Painting the world in darker shades while there is an eternal light Unreasonable … Continue reading The Dreams
Where those thoughts wander one may not be able to imagine They may be errant, but not erratic in the pursuit of something Sighs of the world so busy and your favourite distractions Unemotional skies stare at the dreary landscapes filled with objects There are no natural mirrors anymore across thirsty times Wandering take you far; away from the immoral curiosities It is easy to … Continue reading Off Course
Some silence is forever, settled in eternity Though, such places do not feel dreary and unwelcoming Feels, this place may have been carved by someone supreme Who thought of translating profoundness this way Unwavering belief, this silence instil patience and wisdom There are no boundaries here, the consciousness seeker The realms stretch further towards freedom journeys Silence here has so much meaning to be deciphered … Continue reading Sincere Silence
The struggles are not spontaneous Emerges from the lifeless abyss cloaked in lament The face and tongue lie with the expressions and speech Frowning at the beauty of a verdant land Eyes despair at the images that are being created From a world of distress, the views are blurry and askew Sunken words chronicle misery of being in a predicament Wasteland storms add to the … Continue reading The Struggles and Seeking
Whatever there is, at the depths of the mind Do they exist outside as well? Or, could they be some parallel entity that a mind is unwilling to reveal With an excessively curious world, where they could take them away Crafted with rudimentary tools and shape them oddly There’s no chance of consummate care while handling such rare gems All that is natural, stays immaculate … Continue reading Existential
Charming verses call the heart to settle down, far away from busy and unrhythmic conversations Reading them, while asking for clemency through a poetical recitation Motherly emotions taking care of a soul who wishes to seek answers in this recess There is succour in allowing the rhythmical echoes to lead toward an unknown experience So many answers will be revealed; preparing the ears to pay … Continue reading To the Verses
If not you have hugged the soul for long How can one stay apart with a decision harsh? Speaking of the soul often, without a clue of its predicament Requires harsh effort to decide on such separation Love is always there; none can take it away from the universe When the heart departs to engage in different revelry The unseen chasm pushes the once beautiful … Continue reading Disconcerted Moments
