An Irate Lover

A perched parakeet

Sang in a tremulous voice

For all his sorrows

And tears wrapped in his sleeve

His voice echoes through the hall

Humbling prima-donnas

A myth revealed

A folklore unfold

His mistress had left

Unconsciously fled

Perched on another wall

With all the bricks red

She had swollen eyes

And a red beak

It’s the dawn

Of her wayward dreams



Another day another life

A time to bid goodbye

A lover found, a lover lost

A little happiness at grief’s cost

And then he wasn’t there

The lunatic laughs his verses down
He remembers a hilarious moment of carnival
Past! A worrying anxious place to go
Sometimes leads you where you don’t want to go

Madness ain’t no crime
A moment of ludicrous past, a bad day at office
Starvation, rape, crime, death…
Madness, the emergency exit

I speak for him, I speak for me
I look back to reflect upon him
But then he wasn’t there

floundering kite

'It's summer, I can taste the salty sea
There's a kite blowing out of control on the breeze
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
You wonder what has happened to me'

-- Kite, U2

i would like to be a floundering kite....soaring up the heights of skies.. unshackled, unleashed, unstoppable
i would like to be a floundering kite over the trees...flying with eagles and bees
if i could just fly above the clouds...would i ever return...and if i come back how much would i learn....
i want to be like the unbound stream...nothing to care about..an infinite dream...

i want to face the might of the march wind...the wind may blow..i just want to flow....
but once free from my strings..am deprived of all my stays...in vein to fly away....
how much this kite resembles me..impatient in its stands...far away from the control of hands
it will run until the old breeze blows....its wings are free and up she goes.....

best friends..

Sometimes I wonder
if you haven’t a clue,
that beyond being friends
I’m also in love with you.
I pray for a day
when the light will dawn;
and become a reality,
that there is more
than a friendship
between you and me.
But until then I must
keep a lock on my heart,
be your best friend
and hide this other part,
because
I love you enough
to continue to dream;
and hold on tight;
there will come a day
you will see me,
in a different light

stray dogs...

a piece of meat
and a bunch of them
curiosity in eyes
hunger bred pain

bites over the neck
mud all around
no one gets the piece
all fall to ground

the chaos ends in vein
eyes restore hunger
bone mingled skins
lives in slumber

anger overcomes desire
a flash of utter madness
stray dogs get the pain
their faces cult of sadness

barks turn to weeps
eyes tend to dark
hunger wins the battle
now they are earth's part

the girl in blue...

Hey what's her name? 
I wanna write her a poem too. 
To this gal with emerald eyes 
Who dresses in white and blue 
Has long dark brown hair 
And a beautiful smile too. 
Oh I wanna tell her 
Oh I wanna be more Than just friends with her 
She's always makin eyes with me 
Guys swarmin like she's queen bee 
Oh if I could only write a poem 
While she's still givin attention to me

love and sin


i am not the love you are looking for
just the sin you are lusting after
i have never been a part of your story
just the illusion you have been lurking after

you've never been that harsh on me
but still i am feeling the everlasting pain
i am not the bliss you've been searching for
just a hollow dream you are running after

i've always been on opposite side of the wall
your cries could never reach me
i am not the life you've been craving for
just the past you have been daily dying after

i am just the reminiscence of your broken heart
a factor of infinite sins moulding your life
i am not the image you have been dreaming of
just a reminder of your long gone laughter

and just a sin you are lusting after

What's this all about?

There is a disillusionment that is always lurking beneath the surface, once we start digging. On the surface life is a pretty little ride w...
