The disturbances in the symphonic feelings Trying to restrain the soul from realising a worthwhile tune Not of the selfless pleasures of life, the simple happiness Only thinking about everyone else’s perceptions Stripped of the honest soul’s meanings, they are not your own Wrecked by the heavy words, the adamant sinking In the deep recesses of melancholy- feeble voices worry What are the chances of … Continue reading The Disorder
People rarely find their real voice when it really matters! The protests of the moment are of retrospective thoughts and judgements thereafter. Complicit or not, the muddled times and heady ideas seem to be more alluring; sometimes, the vacuous feeling of being left behind is also a stimulating factor. Time is perceived to be a nemesis, the obnoxious judge, and it becomes essential to join … Continue reading The Purpose of Purposelessness
Studied stubbornness stands like a sentinel Guarding the senses against venturing out The pages that were forcibly torn out, strangulated Fists of fiends empower them for this task Frankenstein feelings claw the soul in a frenzy A desire to witness the pain and life being wrenched Oh! That knot consists of all possible evils The stubbornness stretches the skin so taut ~Amitav Continue reading Stubborn Feelings
Does the patience of the past become invalid due to presses of time Dissatisfaction marches on through the tyrannical and leaden paths Wraths of insensitivity, ignorance, and inconvenience develop many faces The hunger for sympathy grumbles and churns the stomach Stubborn steps lead to the oppressed territories where knowledge hangs in shame The courage of imbecility detonates inimical time; seeks devastation Where some still fast … Continue reading The Way Ahead- In a Mirror
Timid thoughts dare to run the course Wants to disentangle from the intimidations Of being called names by the unknown voices O’er there, the solitude is overbearing Foamy skies darken the spirit of the day Unknown sorcery wields the sinister wand Not all the forces here are friendly to life Incisive time scythes the emergence of new Dismal thoughts translated with dreadful ink Nothing moves, … Continue reading Timidity
Don’t labour your mind because of the intransigent thoughts around Fill the heart with remorse and paint the day with a melancholic colour Colonies of vermins may have hollowed the souvenirs of close sentiments Now the canvas has been lit up with obstinate lights igniting flaring designs Paths mired in most sinister controversies are strangulated remorselessly Travelling without the helpful thoughts is to journey in … Continue reading Stubborn Thoughts
When the words are stiff, they feel discomforted by the offered space Missing nostalgia, also devoid of sentiments that wait outside forever Yearnings on their faces; the sighs mist the window, obscuring the weather Even the lucid understanding transforms into a cloudy apparition of thoughts Unnecessary gossips act like a sharp scissor eager to shred the feelings A stillness of life, wary of any more … Continue reading Stiff Words
Sun shines with morning’s mantra of looking ahead, beyond the night’s premonitions Oblivious of the soul still drenched in distressed dreams; searching in the nadir world Frantically soaking up the excess desperation that rushes through the meandering channels Nature’s bright colours are perceived to be too harsh by an anxious mind Terse sentiments restrict the soul from communicating some profound realisations Always bitter tongue can barely … Continue reading Conflicts
That yolk of ignorance births tantrums so often Fragile shell of obstinacy cracks under duress How violent that latent anger can be is beyond comprehension The invisible leaves a lasting impression on the underbelly of confusion Apocalyptic intentions are not exaggerated When the core of life is depleted of positive energy Resentment is like a cling wrap excruciatingly smothering life ~Amitav Continue reading Resentment
There is a void created from absence of feelings Presence of body not adorned with delightful essence of life Contradictions arise with the soul forced to compromise Worldly reasons justifies the narrative with vacuous words Reflecting the weaker and unenthusiastic existence Clarity presents genuine concerns that are stepped on How desperate it must be to cling to unreasonable ideologies ~Amitav Continue reading Absence
