Unheeded Cries......

Like a sapling treasured in a seed,

I wait eagerly to sprout....

And spread my wings.....

My little hands rise in need

A desire for love and care....

Bubbling in my fresh blood.......

Every nascent heartbeat

Whispers a want for existence...

A dream to see,

And breathe free...

Stumbling and falling and learning,

Little by little.

Bits of this wonderful thing

Your world calls life......

But this hurts,

This pains mommy

Do you hear?

The music is slowing......

I am trying to hold on......

I wish I could feel you sooner.....

But it refuses to let me go......

Why is my world fading?

You want to know how I look,

Is it your face or daddy's eyes?

You want to adore my giggles

You want to comprehend my babble

Don't you mommy?

I want to love you too

And hide my face in your chest......

Cause this scares me

You will heed to my cries,won't you?

You promised,to stand by every breath

And nurture my soul

But I am falling....

I still don't see you lift me up.......

Mommy,it's getting darker!

Pull me back,before I drown

Mommy,help me,won't you?

Oh no! Mommy,it's you?

Seeking An Answer......

As nostalgia hits,

The instinctive knot in the throat develops

And the weight of emotions 

Gently reflected in the clouded skies,

The flow of tears as smooth as the rain

The best and the worst of the past 

Come back in the slow walk through the fields.....

A hesitation seems to hurdle the sight 

As he tries to turn back....

The memories linger even when all is gone.....

The want of leaving,yet the need of staying behind......

A desire to shatter as easily as the heavens....

An attempt to pull himself back into place from that,

Which can never come back

Trying to leave the comfort in the trance....

The voice doesn't find space

Seeking for something,someone to answer

The heart burning questions......

Struggling with himself,

Wanting to leave a part of him behind,

But in vain.......

A want to step into the past 

And satisfy the restlessness......

Of whatever remains...

But nothingness shuns him

As the lines are drawn....

The ability to move and move on 

Seems to dissolve in the rains.....

As he stands motionless

Waiting to be answered......

Terror....

Shattered houses, broken glass....
Voicing those dreaded tales....
Ruins of roads,
Paths through a graveyard........
The burnt flesh wrenching emotions
As decayed lives litter the place....

Those silent eyes,wide with fright.......
The tormenting silence after the storm.....
Emasculated courage, shaken spirits...
Forbidden by fear,
Forsaken by saviors.....
As the scrimmage for survival,
Dissolves in the dense grey smoke.....

They lie in shock
Bathed in the streams of blood.....
As havoc laughs
At the dismembered minds.....
At the violence stained faces....
At the pain soaked cries.....

The stench of death
Nauseating the senses...
The bone chilling memory
Of witnessing the mass slaughter....
Taking away, every other dream.....
Leaving behind no love,
Happiness, or ray of hope....

Just the painful sighs....
Just the weeping eyes......
As screams for help darken the skies....
As haunting prayers beg for mercy.......
As terror quietens every voice
Enclosing the spaces to breathe...

The cornered souls
Shrouding in fear......
An easy prey to the hungry hounds....
Frantically seek for shadows to hide.....
Won over by the diabolic knight.....

The Drenched Soul......

The warmth of the first drop
Like a caressing finger drawn
Across the glowing countenance......
As the wind hushes every other sound,
And the clouds blanket the sun....
Those expectant eyes,
With an ocean of darkness in them....
A pearl of hope shines out.....
The taste of nature tingles the senses....
As the softness of the drizzle,
Refreshes the lost spirit.......
The thunderous voice echoes her sigh.......
A bolt of lightning, and a tear.....
Both in a gentle flash....
And then the tinge of a smile........
Brightening the hues of the painting......
A splash of water from the gurgling brook,
The melancholy filled happiness....
An unheard whisper, a silent wish.....
The rain ushering rejuvenated desires within....
The scent of the earth melts the knot of pain....
A love for the unknown savior's touch.....
The floating leaves take away with them
A message to the unseen paradise......
The water enthralls the dormant passions....
The awe inspiring rain drenches her soul......
As the unspoken delight tickles her eyes,
She opens her arms and embraces the skies....

To You,My Love....

A shy ray of light
Dancing across the idyllic countenance.....
A silent giggle of the breeze
Ruffling the thick black mane.....
As I gently look on
And rejoice this beauty I own.....

I wonder where the magic lies
Is it in those dreamy eyes?
Or in the softness of that touch?
In the mischief of that playful chuckle,
That delights my senses so much?
I stare and ponder in serenity....
And relish the childish simplicity......

The petals of rose that make those lips....
Like living emotions pouted.....
So admirable in picture,so desirable to kiss.....
That smile enthralling my soul undoubted.....
I let the world revolve around my wants
With tears of content,I look on.....

Its beyond words,
The alchemy of your love.....
That purges my heart,
Like a melody unheard.....
The warm comfort of your arms
The gorgeous rouge of that blush......
Those entangled fingers in my hair
An embrace overwhelmed with your innocent care.......

If I were offered an everlasting wish
All I would ask ,my love, is this......
O life, let these moments remain and live....
Not just as an old, fading memory,
But as a true, eternal bliss.......

Sing Me A Song....

As the drizzle tickles my senses
And the thrill runs down my spine.....
I look above at the overwhelmed skies
And relish your innocent smile.....

I wish to drown in your melodious delight
Embrace your tunes with my arms spread wide.....
And dance to the rhythm of the beats of our hearts.....
In the thunderous music of this night......

Sing for me, a song
That will make me lose myself
In the mystique of your eyes.....
Shower me with your boundless love
Unravel in me,the threads of silence
Let loose that passion in disguise.....

Let our unspoken emotions rhyme
Let our spirits run astray......
Making each breath shallow and soft.....
Embodying desires wild....
As clouds hover above, in mischief
Chuckling at this marvelous sight.....

Your voice rejuvenates my longing
And seals every unhealed wound......
The vibrations play with the strings of my heart
And your descant enchants my mind.....

As the rain drenches our kindred souls
I celebrate you, my life.....
So sing for me, a song my love....
Won't you sing for me tonight?

Hidden...

When the lights go dim
And the music fades....
I lie on my cushion of thoughts
Blanketed by boundless fears.....
In a world so colourless,
That the eyes seek solace
In the void of darkness......

The mind plays with illusions
Painting the abstract
With colours unseen...
Leading desires to the devil's snare....
I wipe off the blood invisible
Staining my hands forever......
Sole witnesses of the murder
Of fragile, pure innocence....

Yet frantic attempts go vain
The brutal scars remain....
Shouting out my unspoken pain
In a room full of deaf listeners.......
I stand unguarded......
With naked and betrayed feelings
Refusing to clothe my senses.......
With the threads of hope
Bitten and broken
By moths of reality.....

The masks of sanity
Grinning, as the last straw
Tends to slip out of sight.....
Spotlight of countless accuses
Burning my insides......
As I grope in nothingness
Like a fall from a cliff
Of refreshed horror......
So long the fall....
Like there is no ending....

And then fly the sparks.....
The lights are out
Another cut on the flesh of emotions.....
Reviving the numbness
I lose myself
And relish the sizzle of red....
That replaces the tears
The tears that dried...
I smile senselessly
At the merciless wounds I hide....
