Divorce

Dear daddy, hear my silent plea;
Dear mommy, do not ruin my childhood glee;
The differences you have could wait;
My days as a child shall not;
Spears of anger you dwell with;
Pierced my innocent heart in a million places;
I could barely sleep through the night;
Hearing the loud voices from the kitchen;
Daddy and mommy please be quieter;
The whole world could hear your chatter.

I hear the word divorce;
A thousand times a day;
The way you say it with no remorse;
Breaks my world in so many different ways;
Daddy and mommy while your love ceases;
Me and my sister are left in shattered pieces.

Poor lil baby got no clue;
Her eyes so curious and brilliantly blue;
She chuckles like an innocent doll;
"Sissy, have you seen my bright yellow ball?"

Has anybody asked me what I want?
All I want is for us to be together;
Your ego and pride climbed the priority ladder;
Our happiness and peace were locked down forever.

If only you cared, just a lil bit;
You would see the pain my soul is in;
You would see how I cry myself to sleep;
You would see the tears rolling down my cheeks.

I see my friend and her happy family;
Her daddy buys her dolls;
And chocolates as treats;
Her mommy bakes her pie;
And rocks her to sleep;
All I crave for is just a lil love;
A sweet smile and a kind gaze;
A lovely home filled with never ending bliss;
To send me to sleep with a goodnight kiss.

I hear tomorrow we pack our bags;
To embark upon a journey of custody battles;
To be tossed around from one side to the other;
Like helpless birds with clipped feathers;
We are victims in your incessant ruckus;
Forget not, we are not your puppets.

My sweet winter

The trees have shed their tears;
And the lakes are clad in snow;
But the blue light of the moon glows;
Brighter than never before.

Yes, it is the winter charm;
A charm that brings a smile;
Of hope and reasons to thrive;
Our wonderful journey of life.

The world looks like a bride;
Clad in the loveliest attire;
The last of all the seasons;
Coldest, but the most magical;

The clouds hum a lullaby;
Cuddling the nature to sleep;
Like a sweet little baby she sleeps;
Embraced by the magical blanket of snow.

Its all white and grey, but bright;
With the moon showering its light;
"Sweet baby sleep", the angels sing;
"The long journey of the year awaits".

Oh Lord!

I found you, Oh Lord!
Not in religions;
Not in holy texts;
But within my heart.

I found you, Oh Lord!
Not in temples;
Not in churches or mosques;
But in the poor man's eyes.

I found you, Oh Lord!
Not sitting on a throne;
Not wearing garland of flowers;
But wandering amidst the sad.

I found you, Oh Lord!
Not in palaces of gold;
Not wearing ornaments of silver;
But in the hearts of the oppressed.

I found you, Oh Lord!
Everywhere and in everything;
In myself and in others;
In this world and the worlds beyond.

Witch

I am a witch;
An evil sorceress;
With blood for tears;
And swords for nails.

People run away;
Seeing my very shadow;
Kids scream and shrug;
Every time I lift my eyes.

Darkness is my only attire;
And night, my opulent mansion;
Even the wind seems to fear;
To tread within my sight.

Solitude is my company;
I am the queen of my world;
A world drenched in blood;
A world, cold and dead.

Here I come;
To drink your happiness;
To kill your soul;
To celebrate your slow death.

I love the darkness of night;
When I glide across the sky;
In search of my prey;
Hiding behind the clouds.

I shall cut every vein;
Throbbing inside you;
And drink every drop;
Of your rich, hot blood.

Do not worry my dear;
I shall keep you alive;
Till your last drop of blood;
Quenches my aching thirst.

Then I shall leave;
Leaving you behind;
To decay and rot;
In the company of the night.

For you!

As I disembark;
This ship of sorrows;
I look beyond;
The sky of uncertainty.

As the darkness closes on;
Blanketing my lonely soul;
I feel a strange heartbeat;
Cuddling my broken heart.

I lifted my eyes;
To devour the divine sight;
A cornucopia of love;
Amidst the kingdom of evil;

I felt subdued;
By your indomitable spirit;
I see only you and;
Nothing else around me.

As I lay cold;
On this frozen river bed;
My heart cries aloud;
Melting the snowy silence.

As I lift my eyes;
Towards the star dotted sky;
I see you fly away;
Like a beautiful phoenix.

I lay perplexed;
In the arms of reality;
You were an illusion;
Of my virtual mind.

As I bid adios;
To whatever is left behind;
A tear trickles down;

On to the wet floor of life.

Death

I am Death;
An exalted truth;
Your ineluctable abode;
And your most loyal companion.

I keep watch;
Even while you are asleep;
In the break of the dawn;
And the silence of the night.

I linger around;
Cuddling and kissing you;
Resting my head on yours;
Holding your hand in mine.

You can see me;
In a roaring storm;
In the arms of a tornado;
And the cry of an earthquake.

You can feel me;
In the coldness of the snow;
Vastness of the ocean;
And the warmth of the fire.

The more you run away;
The closer I get to you;
Your age bridging the gap;
And pulling me to you.

With every passing moment;
I come a step closer;
You stay chained in the end;
Of this tunnel, called life.

 I taste sweeter than;
The grapes in your yard;
And feel warmer than;
Your lovely winter blankets.

You shall be at home;
In the depths of my arms;
I shall take you to places;
Across the horizon.

Freed from this mortal cage;
You shall be escorted;
To the house of the Gods;
On the crest of the Zion.

There you shall live;
Forever in my arms;
Together we shall sing;
In the company of the stars.

Rain

I'm in love with the rain;
The rain that pours down;
Stealing away the sorrows hidden;
Bringing back a smile to my lips.

The little drops like pearls;
Roll down the bosom of the earth;
Emanating a fragrance, so pleasant;
Waking me up from a dreamy sleep.

Could anything be more beautiful?
Other than the rain in love;
Quenching the thirst of the earth;
With every single tiny drop.

The subtle prompts of the thunder;
Have woken up the mighty clouds;
Lighning bolts are unleashed;
Piercing the skin of the earth.

The earth shudders in awe;
As if shy to embrace the rain;
Slowly she gives in smiling;
And singing in divine pleasure.

She weeps as the clouds move by;
With a sadness flooding her eyes;
Clinging on to the promise of the sky;
She waits for her lover to be back.
