My Shining Star.....

When the eyes lose the glimmer
Of the rising sun.....
When nothingness is all you hold on to,
When numbness slithers within
Like a venomous snake.....
I'll stand here to embrace you....

When life takes its rides
On rocky cascades.....
When gold wears off the silver plate....
When the world accuses you of failure
In the unreal,exhausting rat race......
I'll hold your hand
And help you stand......

When the words don't seem enough
And emotions overwhelm your mind......
When there is no warmth you can find.....
When the sand drizzles out of your palms
And drowns the little hopes you cherish.....
I'll caress your head in my lap,
And never let your beliefs perish.......

When they will stab your trust,
And strangle your love.....
When they'll turn blind,
To your innocent care.....
When they'll shower their hateful glare...
I'll hide you safely in my heart
I'll heal you with my love...
And won't let you fall apart......

Because for me,
You are the first flower of spring
Whose fragrance beautifies my world.....
You are the soft breeze of fall
Which breathes life into me.....
You are the moonlit night
Which promises me another soulful day.....

You are that hazy dream
Which shapes my destiny.....
You are that healing touch
Which eases the bleeding heart.....
You are the comforting arm
When everyone seems so far.......
You are my love,my brother
You are my shining star.......



Dedicated to my Dada....
One of the people I love the most...
Love you...

Concealed....

In the ruins of memories
Lie some thoughts worth forgetting....
Scattered like shards of glass
Shattered into a million pieces
Yet sinking enough to wound....
Raw, unhealed and bleeding
Leaving behind scars
That never fade....

Yet when the eyes are misted
The face draws curtains of smiles....
Clouds of silence
Cushioning the very existence.......
The threatening voices draw lines.....
Lines, that should never be crossed...

The violent cries are lost
In the depths of baseless fears....
Like the hidden message of a painting
Waiting to be deciphered.......
Yet the seen, is the believed
And the hand reaches out in vain....

Scalded emotions are washed with time
But the ashes remain.....
Like a hurting reminder
Of untold grief......
Drowned in numbness
Of age old pain,well concealed....

Obsessed....

A violent desire
Possessing the soul
Like a restless spirit....
The claws of paranoia
Scratching at decaying ideas.....
The hideous whisper of the wind
A silent, wild instigation....
The unfathomable depths
Of raw and maddening intensity....
A sourceless power
Wanting to take over......
The dissatisfaction of the starved snake
Tempted to hit on
And devour its prey
Yet resisted by unseen limits......
The pungent smell of burning flesh
Intoxicating the senses....
Losing hold on the conscious, the real.......
An arousal to the beast within
Its a hoarse call tonight........
To the nascent evil
Erupting inside the provoked womb of rage....
Its time to hold back
And not let go
Of every fleeting, hungry want.....
Emotions display their darker side
A sadistic pleasure in seething pain.....
All warmth slips out of sight
As the mind sways in lust
To the soft beats
Of a heart obsessed.....
