Feels like emotions are on a Ferris wheelLike another world revolving in the opposite directionEveryone spins, within, it feels sick to the coreIn the distance they cheer…feels like taunts, I do close my earsMy eyes see through the confusion, my soul pulled in by a forceIt is a fierce resistance against all the materialistic lureHere, freedom denied, but regained only after deathReturning to the depths … Continue reading On a Different Trajectory
They have been looking for the groundless reality Taken flight with weak wings and soared through ominous clouds Bellowing their wrath among the worldly extravagance Descendant stars will never be bright again or birthed Forever in the womb of an infinite void- the inconceivable truth Echoes through epochs of lost tribes and infertile existence Now they have taken a dangerous leap towards a tremulous future … Continue reading It Gets Away From Us- A Poem
Time never warned of its intentions, but the moods have changed drastically like a nightmarish dream. The terse mannerism, the current candor, has been an awakening for the routinely busy world.Can anyone question a dream conceived by the Universe at a time that has been beyond the consciousness of the deleterious environment? Nothing feels intimate anymore; the embrace of the seasons is melancholic, as if … Continue reading Unfriendly Time
No path to follow, it’s been way ahead, a journey guided by dreams There have been reflections all along, of all the changes from life arose In between the seasons, the pauses were barely noticeable by passersby An unawake world nudging the quaint spaces, upon which chaos prevails Of earlier creations, from the desires that have been eccentricities Wakeful hours dismantled, time gyrating in a … Continue reading The Wild Pace
Crawling back again, just in time to retrieve the words Again, silence has been therapeutic, collections of many emotions Only there had been faint realisation, now they are closer to my heart My mind entirely in the process of imagining new visions Steady tranquility defeated the raging storm; a conspiracy of life Drawing boundaries, like concentric patterns, closing in on a target Making the desires … Continue reading Rising Again
Dwelling on the differences inspires more differencesIndifferent I try to be amongst the urge to waste more time on themSome unknown energy turns into this formidable enemyI become smaller, but my mind expands rapaciouslyA distorted image; not the fault of the mirrorMisshapen reality has carved me out from my beingThis is not me, but I am living comfortably with my antithetical natureThere is a compulsion, … Continue reading Differences
Oh-so incredibly perplexing the order of the events Tired of rearranging them; they settle on their own On unsettled segments created by irregular lines When boundaries look like feverish insecurities Unfamiliar nights vehemently lure the restless soul There are no remedies for a trembling world Shrouded in the inscrutable mystery of incognito time Stillness of the watches bury the vibrancy of life Living through laboured … Continue reading There is Fear
Begrudgingly agreeing to the sudden spurt of conversations The night could have gone wrong- the rancour still lingers in the breath Juvenile reactions, maybe, but the day does not carry a friendly sentiment Still churning within, after having fallen asleep after a long battle With questions from the incautious world- replies stifle the tongue A careless body, tired from the conventional emotions; feels strange Somewhere, … Continue reading Agreeing Reluctantly
Unapologetic objects jostle for space They have been established to vie for glory All-weather skin- nothing penetrates Especially the critical thoughts and woes Of human emotions and subtle dreams Once they hit the walls, they are turned away Dwelling in them, decorating the corners Is a suffocating experience- but that’s a reality Perrenial storms of ego and angst Among vitriol and fight for existence There … Continue reading Difficult Space
When we cannot keep pace with peace it feels absurd Calamitous dreams flow like the unknown rivers of the netherworld That warm feeling of drowning the self in the desirous current There could be an uprising of a wintry feel- the self-contradiction Frozen time stabs threateningly like a thousand steely knives Stalactite thoughts claim to subdue the mind with fierceness When shadows become bigger than … Continue reading Eluding Peace
