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.

When I look back

My love,
Now when I look back;
I see the remains of a broken life;
Scattered across the lonely room;
That you left long back.

My love,
The chandelier glows;
As a reminder that stirs;
Memories that haunt;
Emitting rays of despair.

My love,
You left a soul raped;
And brutally persecuted;
You made sure you left;
Drinking my last drop of blood.

My love,
Seduced by a mystery;
Forbidden to me;
I closed my eyes;
To all your beautiful lies.

My love,
It was a game so perfect;
Tailor made to suit your needs;
The moves were practiced;
Even before you actually started.

My love,
I wanted to scream;
And cry out loud;
But the voice that surfaced;
Never crossed my lips.

My love,
It choked me from within;
Sputtering on my dreams;
Like an angry, hungry demon;
It killed me from within.

My love,
As I gazed into the depths;
Of the dark, black sky;
I could see no star;
Not even a shred of light.

My love,
I let the darkness engulf;
My already wretched soul;
And I close my eyes forever;
With a smile on my agonised lips.

A Lonely Soul

I close my eyes;
To the cruel surprise;
I run away;
"You are mad!", they say.

"Laugh", they demand;
I execute their command;
After all being a puppet;
I am trapped in their net.

While I silently wept;
Lying in the cradle of the night;
Remembering the song long forgotten;
That gave me tears that have now rotten.

As I walk down this lonely path;
Hiding away from this world's wrath;
Leaving memories behind;
I feel a pull from the inside.

A pull so intense;
An aching presence;
So captivating and insane;
Tearing apart my heart's membrane.

The pain supposed to lay hidden;
Which could never get ridden;
Has enclosed me within;
The walls of it's cruel shrine.

My legs tire;
Chasing my own desire;
I feel a strange light;
Envelope the path before my sight.

As I walk to embrace the light;
I see a mirror that shines, so bright;
Right in the middle it lay untouched;
Like a mystical mystery unsolved.

As I stand before it's gaze;
I see it unfold all my fears;
I could see my own reflection cry;
As if it's aching to die.

While my tears roll down;
I realize, I should always have known;
Never to expect anyone to stay;
As the people with wisdom always say.

Being in love for the first time

I knew how it felt;
When the breeze fluttered;
And how my mind quivered;
Being in love for the first time.

I felt the sweetness;
Of the rain drops;
Tickling down my heart;
Being in love for the first time.

I liked to see the sunrise;
Leaving me spellbound;
Early in the summer morn;
Being in love for the first time.

I gazed up into the sky;
Every night to count the stars;
In search of your face;
Being in love for the first time.

I wished you would come;
Over the clouds in the sky;
To take me behind their walls;
Being in love for the first time.

I wanted to close my eyes;
Leaving just your face on mind;
For the rest of this life divine;
Being in love for the first time.

A thousand splendid words

I can hear your silence speak;
A thousand splendid words;
To my heart, that has been;
Beating just to see you smile.

You gave a touch of heaven;
To those days divine;
Leaving memories behind;
Giving me reasons to smile.

I was happy with out reasons;
Cos I felt you were there;
An illusion swept over me;
As your shadow bid good bye.

I felt my dreams crumble;
Right before my eyes, wet;
The pieces lie shattered;
Reflecting my every emotion.

Nothing could be more beautiful;
Than being in love forever;
I have learned to find you;
Even in the nothingness around me.

A smile still comes to my lips;
As your thoughts flutter across my mind;
Forgetting, life has traveled long;
Ever since the day you left.

Strange Relationship

There are no words left to say;
How broken and torn my heart is;
Life seems to just fade away;
Leaving my mind lonely and cold.

As I held the hands of the night;
I heard my restless soul cry;
I felt a drop of tear within;
My already wet eyes;
The clock of life ticks fast;
Making memories fade away;
And the world would never stop;
Mocking at me in awfully pathetic ways.

I wish, Oh Lord;
Life was an easier riddle to solve;
As the night closes down, I feel;
An achingly calm stir in mind.

My life is complete;
For passersby;
They say aloud;
"Oh, you have it all";
But I keep searching;
Here and there;
For what I miss;
The most in life.

There is no name;
For what we share;
It's not friendship;
It's not love.

What is it that still connects;
You and me on both the ends;
It's hard to define;
This feeling, strange;
A mixture of confusion and dismay;
All I know is;
Oh my dear;
We share a strange relationship.

My Baby....

My baby, I wish;
You could open your eyes;
And see the pain;
Behind your Mamma's tired eyes.

My baby, I have waited;
Just to see your smile;
With dreams about you, I lived;
All these months worthwhile.

My baby, why don't you hear?
My heart broken cry;
At least let me see;
The colour of your eyes.

My baby, feel the tears;
From your Mamma's wet eyes;
Drench your pearly white cheek;
And your tender, pink lips.

My baby, they say you have left;
Gone so very far away;
Leaving your Mamma weary;
To play with the angels in the sky.

My baby, let me touch;
Your fingers, so cold;
I wish you could feel;
Your Mamma's tight hold.

My baby, Let me kiss;
Your tiny little feet;
I promise You shall live;
In my every heartbeat.

Love

I feel like a bird;
Caged with in the walls of fire;
I remember what someone wise said;
Your greatest enemy is your own desire.

I feel the wind outside;
Hugging the world in sheer delight;
My heart aches to be aside;
The one who Pleases my sight.

Love is hard to shake;
It makes even the sane insane;
It makes your heart so weak;
And gifts you a bouquet of pain.

Love is as sweet as wine;
And rules your mind with pride;
It makes you say, "Your mine";
And leaves you dreaming wild.

Love is a subtle feeling;
So much deceptive and tantalising;
That keeps your soul yearning;
To know its deep hidden meaning

Just a heart beat away.....

I have blended all the emotions of life;
And locked in a golden vault;
Cos they mean nothing to me, O dear;
Since you have left my side.

I feel no pleasure in day;
Nor any sleep in night;
Cos you have gone so far, O dear;
Leaving my world so dark.

I have a thirst, so insatiable;
For your love, so irresistible;
Cos you lifted up my senses, O dear;
You were my elixir of life.

While walking down the memory lane;
I feel my tear drops trickle down;
Pulling me back to those days, O dear;
When I had your shoulders to lean and cry.

Let the cuckoo sing and the world rejoice;
In joy shall everyone laugh;
Cos they got what they wanted, O dear;
My hopes lie crumbled down.

I now find happiness in pain;
Holding those memories close to my heart;
Cherishing every moment u gifted, O dear;
That gave me a million reasons to hold on to life;

While I traverse alone this path of life;
I can still feel and also breath;
The fragrance of your presence, O dear;
That lies Just a heart beat away.
