IN THE THOUGHTS OF A LADY!

Should I say it?
Would it deem fit?
Questions I ask myself,
When I'm alone with myself.

Does he like me?
Are we meant to be?
From night till morn,
The questions go on and on.

 I see how he stares,
While I descend the stairs.
That smile he wears;
Lo! I already said Yes!

Will he ever ask?
O! Waiting is such a task!
Should I approach him?
Thoughts make my head spin.

Does he feel same?
Would he be easy to tame?
The questions go on and on,
From night till morn.

Is it just in my head?
Perhaps an effect of my med,
Or mere infatuation?
O! What a situation!

Whatever tomorrow holds,
I pray it quickly unfolds.
For such instabilities,
Suppresses my abilities!

I SING OF ADLIN 😍

I sing of a lady
One adorable as a baby
A lady Who hunts hearts
And mends their broken parts

I sing of a maiden
Whose beauty roots from Eden
With eyes like fireflies
She glows when she smiles

I sing of beauty
Pure, unadulterated beauty
Beautiful angel with no wings
The reason the bird sings

I sing of Adlin
Adlin, the lady; Adlin, the Queen
One who hangs on the hands of time
Hoping that soon the bells will chime

I sing like I have no choice
Longing to hear that soothing voice
Of one, so dear to me
One I long to see

O! Beautiful maiden
O! Beautiful Adlin
You have not the slightest clue
Of how much I miss you!

HOMECOMING 😕

On the same fields we laid
When I had to say goodbye
I lay once again
Several moons after that night

I lay again but in twisted manner
A manner of unclear anticipation
A manner of dread uncertainty
As a fool in his own paradise

A decade already,
Since that passionate goodbye
Things and times have changed
Bewildering my thoughts

Would you see me from afar,
Let go of all your belongings,
Run to me like old times
And give me a diving hug?

Would you hold me so tight
With tears down your cheeks
Whispering into my ears;
Don't you ever leave again!

Or would you wave from a distance
And whisper a silent Hi
With your face looking downwards
Like my presence is trouble?

Would you come riding a chariot,
Bearing the ring of King's wife?
Would I have to call you Highness
And bow like everyone else?

Did the blue bird deliver my letters?
Did you enjoy reading them?
Or were you patiently waiting,
To burn them before my very eyes?

On the same fields we laid
When I had to say goodbye,
Will I repeat the bad goodbye?
Or etch a memory beneath the moon!

DIVERSION

Lord, I'm lost
And I cannot locate the cross
My vision is shrouded
And my thoughts clouded
My knees have failed to kneel
And now my feet cannot feel

Lord, I'm lost
And I cannot locate the cross
Even beneath the bright light,
I doubt my own sight
I'm as one with no foresight
Like a kite on a stormy night

Lord I'm lost
And I admit I'm lost
I have come to crossroads
With offenses, a hundred folds
And though my sins be overly gross
Lead me once again to the cross

Aren't we all lost,
Trying to win at all costs?
Aren't we all lost,
Seeking worldly pleasures and all sorts?
Lord, we're all lost
Lead us once again, to the cross!

ISLAND

They say no man is an island

Perhaps I am no man

For I am an island 

A desolate one indeed

My plight is mine alone

My fight, against none but myself

I am as unto nothing

Unnoticed is both my presence and absence

I don't recall doing wrong

Yet I cannot forgive myself

I cannot trace my offense

How then do I let go?

I do not know myself

I don't think I ever will

How then will someone else?

I shall remain an island!

I am dying 

And no one knows 

No one must know

For no one will believe my story 

You will call me foolish

You will say I deserve it

Defending your arguments with logic

Pretending to be better than me

You who believe my story

You hurt me the most

You saw the tears inside

Yet you didn't push enough

You should have asked again

When I said I was ok

You should have asked again

And again, and again!

I am dying 

And you think my story is lame?

I am dying

And you all are to blame!

THE FORSAKEN PROPHECY!

Battle cry, distant songs of war

Clinging axes with one accord

9 feet giants, in iron amour

Colored teeth like piano keys

Brutish anger in every breath

Rallying after the master warlord

We're at war! We're at war!

All that echoes in human minds,

When they stump their huge feet

Against the dry earth beneath

Men are no longer men

Women and children, insignificant 

Alas! Fear has gripped us all

The scavengers have sensed it

An impending bumper harvest

They fill the skies in their numbers

Flying around in wait

For the separation of soul from body

The carcass of them too weak

Perhaps strong enough to embrace death

The end has beckoned

While we still slumber

A prophecy taken for granted

We should have listened!

Enslaved by arrogance

Soaked in insolence

We should have heeded!

Flee! Said, the revelation

Yet haughty as we were

We chose to stay and fight

Bravery or foolishness?

Well, the giants have come

And we are no better prepared

Drunken from hard liquor 

Our death has come

The Holy Books are fulfilled!

TONIGHT!

 

Hand me that bouquet 

For I found the special someone 

Tonight will be good

A red dress will be cool

Tonight she's giving it all out

To one solely deserving

It will be such a night

It will be worth the wait 

"He loves none but me

A prince made just for me

He made the glow on my cheeks

He made the smile on ma face

He might not like flowers

But this bouquet is for him

It's more than just flowers

A token of my appreciation"

Knock knock on his door

Surprise! Prince Charming

And there he lay on his bed

With another lady in his bosom 

Her hands turned feeble

Too weak to hold the flowers 

She still wore her smile

Yet to come to terms with reality

They were both asleep

Her presence wasn't noticed 

And so she left a note

"Tonight was meant for us"

Her heels couldn't hold her

She walked home bare footed

And straight to the shower

With her pretty red dress

It was such a night 

The longest night of her life

Her longest night in the shower

Laughing with tears on her cheeks!
