Voices

Many moons whispered to her, Fetters of caress do cut deep. Left with nameless waves of emotions Numb to feel the chord of symphony. Jolted awake by disjunctures but the moons sing her to sleep… Everything is fine Whispers in her ears. Underneath shape-shifting sand dunes The way is hidden […]

A Lover Who Wasn’t Mine

She saw him for the first time hiding behind the bookshelf Those pretty eyes would make her dream. He noticed her hands shaking and tucking her hair behind her ear He held her hand the whole time the first time they met. But then their bodies had to know the […]

Love Will Find a Way..

Love is more than those three magical words, It’s more than those touchy feelings, It’s an invisible connection, That binds you to your soulmate.   Wrapped in the blanket of stars, Drives you crazy over the moon, It calms your soul to serenity, Elucidates a perfect fantasy.   It is […]

Hope

Our home is now our asylumGives naught except for terrorUnder no roof of hope and joy,We now just gauge our tears. The Other feels no painNo scream penetrates his bosom,But by orders, he shouldAs a ‘patriot’, reciprocate none but fear. The barrage deafens the harmony of silenceIt breaches the faith […]

Peace Lover

Fare Thee Well…

A bottle of wine was tossed in the air, Letting it drain out in the form of tears, My emotions oscillated in every cheer, For I am losing a person in my heart so dear. The laughter resonated from depths of wall, As the sky kept weeping in every sensual […]
