Valkyrie

As the Viking ship buoyed up across calm seas

An albatross ,huge and white, hovered along the dock

On the vigil , a Shieldmaiden, young and fierce

Searched for hidden dangers,  round the clock

Through years she had been the strongest on board

With strength unmatched and secrets untold

then once she sipped in a whiskey but not too much

for she had a ship to guard and a reputation to hold

Alas, hung-over, she slept and dreamt of land

and by dawn the ship was lost into uncharted waters

Ringing loud alarms she sounded war cries

To steer her ship back ,into safe borders

Fearing destruction by cyclone or a pirate ship

which reminded her of fateful past & gory imagery

but a bigger question that still remained afloat

was: “will her soul, again, be saved by Valkyrie?”

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

Excerpts from the diary of a sun kissed soul

.. and For a moment I wasn't there. There was only the sun that shined red declaring its departure. There was only the relentless wind that blew just enough to give me a high. There was only the horizon that spoke in languages I did not know existed. And there was just the landscape that was more beautiful than anything that I had ever seen, felt or experienced before. If 'Love' ever took a manifestation in physical form: what I was witnessing then, would be it.

DIEHARD

There must have been a time in ur life
when everything seems to weigh u down
when u lose ur anchor over every situation
& get played just like a lifeless crown

  

when everything takes its "worst" possible form
when every nook reeks of despair galore
when u find ur delicate emotions
being treated like a cheap street whore

when its the end if ur compassion and patience
when life eclipses the fire of ur soul
when tears become ur new best friends
a shattered YOU is what becomes of ur WHOLE

Defeated you bow down to god
only to be beaten, Yet again
lifeless,loveless u beg for grace
but all u get is a lil more pain

 Thats when u stop and think for Once
& cry out loud to the sky- WHY ME

Rise. For this is Your destiny
Tell life, Tell god: “Dare me. TRY ME”

When u fight n fail n u fyt n fail
when u play & lose ur every single card
when it seems like u hv gone bankrupt
spin the dice gambler, play batter, Diehard

For it is you who has been chosen
To do. To be. To get somthing better
and in the process if life gives u heat
It is only to make you shine, Just let her

Let it burn for then ull shine brighter
let ur heart bleed, for it will then evolve
let urself beat your own benchmarks
let urself struggle- it ll strengthen ur resolve

Do anything ,but Quit -dare u not
for life wants a winner out of U

 it wouldnt have tested u this bad

 if it had any frivolous plans for U

Choose to win by perseverance

Choose to make a palace of life's shard

Choose to sweat more even if ur injured

and Choose to Live my warrior, Diehard

Been strong enough, be powerful now
laugh out loud at time's eccentric game
learn not to give a damn to the world
make ‘success’ -ur god, ur love, ur aim

Damn situations- they cant do u any worse
Chuck people-they just sap ur energy and cash

Focus on making a mountain out of this molehill

 Like a phoenix-be born gain from ur ash

let not the world know of- the chaos
that goes about in ur soul everyday
Let them be cruel, mean and unkind
like very dog its their day today

Wait, for your Reign is on its way
& so is ur kingdom & ur crown

All u have to do is hold ur breath

a lil longer than when the others would drown
