You know not what your love means to me

A gush of breath to the drowning soul
Or a slight ripple caressing the morning sea

A tremor breaking the peace of dusk
On this barren land - a lone desert tree

A lull of hope in a burnt town
And a drug from which I can’t break free

A glue to the brokenness of my being
A paradox aggravating the heart’s melee

You know not what your love means to me

Carpe Diem

The night stirs
the moonlight blurs
a realist's view
that's painted blue

a poet's mind
in a world unkind
entrapped in mundane
and wasted in vain

I sat ,yet, once
let go off the nuns
that chain the heart
and restrain my art

then the silence talked
& the stillness walked
as my soul danced
by a tune,entranced

I had missed since long
the nature's song
as the stars & the sky
they had whispered "Fly.."

Tomorrow in the light
I may forget tonight
but in my own way
I"ll "seize the day"

A Date with the Devil

The devil again seduced her to a date,

asked to set free with him,what she'd abate

set ablaze by the madness in his eyes

she accepted ,but,that was no new surprise

this wasn't the first,but one of the many

again he would deliver her spirit,like no any

drinking from his thoughts,she sipped mystic wine

as he talked of "forbidden, impossible & divine"

He said The fences of her imagination

are the bounds to her powerful creation

mediocrity's vicious pattern and routine,

had enough killed stimulation umpteen

he walked her through her dreams and beyond

and said "your belief is your spell and your wand"

wings of vision are everyday spliced dry,

because fear of unknown wont let them fly

what prevents a rebellion in her was just

for safety, shelter & comfort,her lust

"if only you could put sometimes your angels to sleep 

would I come more often,to nudge you deep

on face,emotions you might fear and hate

but in secret,you do romance the inappropriate

and we'll talk of gods, religions and blood too well

Goodbye for now, but wait for my letters from hell"

and as I opened my lashes to enter the land above

Reincarnated as,with my demons,i was in love

discovery ,not invention

Let me look at the sky and let me watch it glow

Let me dwell on a feeling and let me feel it grow

Once what was a chaos , is becoming  slow

In my ignorance, let me seek till I know

Of myself and of others the myths that I hold

Through subtle hints would god let it unfold

All I have to do is to wait until I’m told

In simple surrender will I gradually become bold

In the flowers, it is, shall I find my peace

in their melody ,whenever they’re touched by a breeze

in their quiet do they hide the secret of my release

"life is a beautiful flow not meant to freeze"

a hundred spiritual quotes i may read at will

wont ever solve a puzzle that’s clear and still

the cure lies inside, not in a person or a pill

a discovery of self, not invention,meant to fulfill

Kingdom of my mind

One day I’ll let my heart choose free

And give in when the devils conquer me

Escape from the sanity that shackles me

For, in this freedom lies my remedy

That day would bring a light of its own

In the kingdom of my mind I would sit alone

When no more virtues I would have to hone

Wouldn’t care if the gods will have me disowned

I see the world and I laugh out hard

Chasing mundane things in life’s broken shard

While forcing me to play their every card

And burning me when I had felled my guard

Calmed by a storm and poised by a blaster

I resign into silence before rendering a disaster

How I wish that a realization should have come faster

Emotion’s a good servant, but a bad master

song of the beast

The sound of a clock
a distant knock
distracted me again,
the sweetest smell
a highland's fell
silenced the noisy lane

Beginning to doubt
what I seek without
In the blackness of the night,
no human soul
could hear at all
the song of the beast inside

Affections galore
friendships even more
while love has been sterile,
playing game of dart
with a beating heart
for its been quite a while

Fountain or a Well?

A fleeting moment I would want to hold
an obvious story ,concealed and untold
in a heart so deep and a heart so cold
I'd try to make these memories fold

for a world unkind and a world unfair
that has a trick to dupe & a cheater's flair
I'll never give away what I can never share
a coward's story locked in a lion's lair

Emotion for a stranger or love for a dear
will all seem similar on this perfect veneer
of what I want to tie & what I want to tear
Inside it'll stay, sealed in bare fear

Of broken hearts & broken promises
and legends of forlorn & fatal kisses
an echo in my mind silently hisses
a fountain loses what a well never misses
