In a while,looking at a few old words you wrote once,
some being those, which makes you wonder how you wrote it,
unless you got that ardour , that small drug you were addicted with,that small shelter, that old family. Makes you silent.
In a while, now writing a few words. And that exhilation to share it,ain't the same. And you think about the old time.
Makes you silent again.
~ Manisha.
One day when I get superpowers (ahem), I'd ask you to hold my hands and I would make you see what I see. Feel, How I feel. I would want to have you look at the world, the stars, the moon, the ocean, the way I see them. And in that maelstrom of visions I would get to see the world in your image. Experience this sanctum through your eyes. And then when I write, that would be my greatest work ever. Because It would have been written by all of us and none of us. But I don't have superpowers, so lets make this place, the sanctum in my dream.

Evening Light Is Failing
Time is standing still,
Finally still for me.
As I see the water fall silent,
My gentle wind is free.
Shattered glass of myriad memories,
Fall unto the green water.
And the river shines a red glow,
As the flickering shadows grow longer.
Its time for you to set, My Divine Light,
Long have you shined at heights.
Long have you warred the mighty rain clouds,
Against dark nights with dying lights.
For once the horizon is not black,
The oceans are quiet as a still morning calm.
The winds are retreating into the mountains white,
And no rain clouds threaten the winter lark.
When the last wave on ocean shores broke,
The sun died into the welcoming night.
The water was still as the winter snow,
As the light disappeared beyond their sights.
Sleep my Sun, sleep forever,
Rest your light for the morning after.
For you may yet rise again,
Like a phoenix burning in an orange light.
But then the morning never came,
And with it never came the sunlight.
This sunset was final it seems,
For the morning never met the horizon bright.
This will be my last poem I guess. I'm quitting.

Cheating Shadows...
Ive got aged jars with venom floating inside,
when i wished for clouds so silver lined,
and is it its insanity that beckons me,
or is it your ignorance that holds the key.
The tunnel ended in light, I ran as you came,
the house breaking down, in its mason's mains,
and as soon as I touched you and held you as mine,
you vanished yet lingered, like passing time.
Body spinning in circles, eyes searching for stones,
no rubble, no blood, finally a home,
every wish, every prayer finally come true,
and I'm stuck ouside, with a brand new,you.

The Dying Of The Light
Take me away, to a land of oceans,
Where the land is swallowed by the withering waves.
Where the water is swept by the buffeting wind,
And a red darkness envelops the sky.
Where the stars are dying in the dark night,
There shall the solar wind fall.
To bury the last strands of the final light,
The forest trees stand tall.
The clouds are the enemy,
Who have captured the evening light.
The hail of rain pierces the oceans black,
As it falls through the mourning night.
Destroying waves rise a mile high,
But still can't free the sun.
The bleak horizon darkens with tears,
Falling from the dying sun.
How can the moon now rise,
Without the sun's light?
What's beyond the clouds no one shall know,
For the sun has lost its final fight.

Flecks
I am an eraser-
I rub away your pain and sorrow.
Give you a little of me
Willingly...
my heart and soul
Soon all of me whole,
Till I'm not shiny and new,
I don't erase like I used to.
I'm still there ... as I am erased all the way,
away
So I've given you me-
Would erase it all away for you again.
But now who is to erase the sorrow?
the end of me has become?
I ask now-
What has become of us? And where are we now?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Oh you all know I can no longer write, I no longer write. It was good to read all of yours again. I do advise you finally see those comments I should have written a long time ago.
Please come back.
I'll let you know, I'm here. But maybe not for long?
Heylo all. I still love you.

Paper dreams
i knead my Sunday dreams
on blank sheets and kites
that you paint with blossoms
of purple, red
and white.
these walls i build
high as to hide the sun,
you touch time
and turn them to bridges
in a while.
through that door which
i never opened,
you send me a lullaby
will you sing it again
when am lost in
the sea of mirrors
without a name?
will you?
In a bubble I blend,
to the rhythm of the sun,
in shadows I die,
to be that rain
which could pass the borders
and bleed with
the earth
to regain those leaves
where you
wrote my name.
like those secrets your lip holds,
the grains of sands lie dead,
shall i hold them
as they slip?
to make them the roots
of a tree that will
always remain.
the pages have changed
to paper boats and planes,
just like those dreams
you hide in that valley with no wind,
shall i call them back,
counting every changing
shade of seasons
to hold your hand at the
break of dawn?
shall i?
Departure
Walking among woods
never did a shepherd
found his lost sheep
Everything breaks,
even a stone,
but the mountains
couldn't cry,
whispered the sky
to lend them some rain
as they counted clouds
touching and leaving away.
The hands that cupped
to hold a river
moved away,
and never were
the two grains seen,
one that slipped away
and the other
that tried to
built a shelter
in between
the walls of
two fingers,
two grains of sand
attached to
one branch
no one saw
when they met
became one
and left.

The lonely city candy affair
A pause in this loneliest city,
A dialog I add of footprints emerging
In chapter of turndown eternity.
Since I turn only to you undone,
In retiring light of the morning moon,
In stoic light of the evening sun.
It shadows my fairish glitter.
It blinds one if the sweetened white,
I’d shirk divorcing the mirror.
Shirk not envying the postman.
He pleases to please, ceases to cease.
For how your talk goes my pen.
The comfort I jilt of my shelter,
A bedpost and a seascape on the wall,
The universe for knocking later,
To become a mistletoe pendant.
On your oak where metaphors bloom.
My darling oxymoron, old friend.
On the bed cared-for when we lie,
Secretly open-eyed and close-hearted
In the compass of a needle eye,
Tickle not my fancy to flee often
To the slightest ice on the coldest lake!
Dilemma of half-lost, half-gotten.
Infant and redundant up the sky,
Down they blur to divide and conquer.
Sad! I can’t more than clouds cry.
Blurry streets I can’t but dread,
Where with each blink of my eye fades
The imprint of your silhouette.

In The Morning Mist
all alone i wander
speaking of gods and angels
the burdens we place
through our desires
only to forget
what we desire the most
in the morning light she stands
alone drenched and shivering
placed a hand on her shoulders
quivering i beg to be free
the water showed her face
of tears and fears in one
nothing seemed like fate
when her loved ones have to die
we the forsaken,
take the light.
empty shadows,
pale whispers in the dark.
held together ,
dreams that kill the nights.
intertwined forever,
by our heart's desire.
silent i awaken,
to rid myself free.
atoned from my sins,
i search the skies.
gazing at the clouds,
i wonder why live.
gazing at the water,
i wonder what to live for.
to be freed of this disease
to be held when none cared
to be sought when there's nothing left
to be loved when there's noone left
in the morning light
she spoke to me
told me of her burden
freed me of my sins
held my hand and whispered
go now love you are me
we the forsaken,
take the light.
empty shadows,
pale whispers in the dark.
held together ,
dreams that kill the nights.
intertwined forever,
by our heart's desire.
Play...
The words play like a piano's tune, a beating soul, playing its master piece,
in timeless whispers of joy and sin, in seconds alive, and moments deceased.
And they pass through the boards the channels and streams, a shadow uncared for, unmourned,
and we'l stare and walk away unshaken, why? who knew what pulled the piano's chord?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I clicked that picture and a song was playing in my head through the shoot, i dont know what song...but it just seemed to come out. and for once a photo inspired me.

uninspired to word my feel
heavy eyes set on empty lines
lost in something unknown still
everytime i try i cant come undone
had a heart that sang out loud
had a fear that cried out songs
had a tear that reasoned her stay
now lost inside and left behind
with her my words too left
again i fall in this empty space
the blank sheet speaks my heart
perfect words to show my emptiness
never again will i write in love
for she might steal my words again
never again will i fall in love
for she might steal my heart again
closure i find in these lines
i bid farewell to your blank face
in this moment i witness the beauty
of sunrise and a pen changing a life
words come back and i again feel
tears come back, i bid final farewell
hopes return with the swaying trees
i return with the singing winds
and again i hope to write in love
and again i hope to give my words
and again i hope to fall in love
and again i hope someone will steal my heart
Hmmm are we dead again??
where is everyone?? i cant seem to find any new posts.. hopefully someone reads the above one atleast..

I suppose it was time.
Haven't been here much at all...
Everything goes back to the old, I suppose.
It's been a while.
And although I wrote that a long time ago...I am still a remnant.

Let The Gods Sing
It seems like forever
O daughter of the moon
Since thine own desire
To peer out of the sky
To fix the ticking clock
We must tear time asunder
And lo! There thou art
Confined and yet unbound
The wind stays its course
Like a sailor's best ally
Searching for Minotaurs
A blood drop from the eye
A thousand millennia
To behold in union
And even, O divine
In silent overture
As the silver light steeples
In mirthful crescendo again
And the fulfilling embrace
I yearned for is given unto
And then we sit in triumph
The glory of years forlorn
The world in singularity
Watches the event horizon

Of Seekers And Finders
"The sky is dressed in ethereal shades
Of a pen's ink gently sprinkled over
Rays of light, almost fragile to touch
Caress the embers and clinch tightly"
Weakly pulverous and trudging along
Hair swept back by the maelstrom
A faint glow of lightning emanating
Daylight overpowered and overawed
The reins of transparent chaos around
And the ruins of maligned serenity
In the hands of one who is balanced
To see them intertwined together
Parting the anvil with a strike so sound
That the cosmos is torn asunder
Chaos and serenity forged as one
Fathomless in its basic nature
Brightly radiant and riding swiftly
Imbibed with the unified duality
The aura of control spreads around
Light conforming to wholeness

Reason Finds A Hole...
In shadows of her broken mind,
like twists and turns, uneasy lines.
looping circles, never cease to form,
the holes of fate, invited storms.
And she tries to change the paths foretold,
to bend a future she cast in stone.
And in crumbles and dirt it formed she finds,
a sealed mouth, and a blinded mind.
Who is it who made the world turn round?
Made justice her love and left it unbound,
and then when she faltered and chose to betray,
had it coming asking for her price to pay.
Is it mere complaints, and only practice being preach,
is it truth held at gunpoint with lies to teach,
will it matter if questions were answered or not,
if digesting devoid reason aint a battle unfought?
And the poison spun round in the brim of her lungs,
Freedom,
exploded in the air, suffocated and hung.
She couldn't free her convictions, she couldnt bear to hold,
to never meet the reaper, and sell her soul.
The rain poured down her sullen cheeks,
faith's fire dwindled and hope shined bleak.
The grounds turned to mould, the rain held its child,
she was dragged undisturbed, leaving footprints behind.

Daisies
Heylo to you all.
So... What's up with the picture?
=P
-Not that I mind. Just curious.
While I'm at it. What are you guys? Whatcha been up to? Updates updates.
(Yes this is my excuse for not writing.)
Just a random thought. Don't you hate it when you are just doing something then think of an amazing line with the perfect word in the sentence... And then when you go to remember it later. You've totally forgotten the *perfect* word. Ugh,
Writer's Block
Opportunities galore
In a blank piece of paper,
But tall tales are short
Impressed on skyline.
Ironic to take it ironic
Turnabout is fair play,
Book of passing dreams
Stargazes a retrofuture.
Of shepherd, of nymph,
And other mismatches
In flip side couplings
Fancy befriended me.
As water pals up earth
Smear us with clay,
In plastic of plastic art
Opportunities galore.

Like The Morning Mists
Two pairs of feet, tread ocean shores,
Like rain from stars on eyes black and brown.
The soothing caress of Spring's soft leaves,
Under a blanket of night's silky frown.
And those eyes, like an endless sky,
Stretched over miles of misty lands.
Laughter like a valley of silken roses,
Beside a river across a coloured band.
All those beneath raven hairs,
That flutter across a visage so pure,
Across a soft hill under stars,
Like winds on sunlit oaks.
Like gentle waves your name flows,
Your voice like church bells serene.
And the sea breeze kisses your eyelids closed,
When dawn walks against the night.
The first light of the morning sun falls,
And the sky pours down upon sleeping eyes.
You are just a dream it seems,
Just a lonesome heart's dream...

Binding Atropos
In the years gone by in silence
And the years yet to arrive
Cloaked in starkness of chaos
The mechanical movements
Of a rusted shade of the sun
For a few indoctrinated eyes
Frolicking in cosmic meadows
The threads woven by Norns
Sitting calmly, grinning slyly
Two souls gazing into vortex
Forged in fluidity of steel
Is better than a gold prison
Seeing spring approach on wings
In anticipation of one eternity
The orchestration of a pen's ire
Wrought in the subtlety of words
To be
One
To be
Omni
To be
The mediocrity of a mountain
Slowly eroded by drops of water
And the twitching hand of fate
Caught in the thread it wove
With a sense of utmost clarity
A scene in pulchritude unfolds
Paving way for iridescence
And the shards of flawed amber
Begetting a tint of kindness
Inevitably metamorphosing
In sight and form of divinity
To the pure, all is pure
The craven can't comprehend
Leaves plucked from trees
Spiralling into corruption while
A phoenix meanders high above

. sick..
sitting with legs crossed
stuck in the cross-section of time
breathing nothing down my throat
holding the present responsible, in vain
scribbling empty contours on a page
hoping it would breathe itself to life
every dot and curve intended
to cleanse and wash this rage
rattled center, dispersed light
the balance disturbed, deterred
searching for the catalyst, misplaced
somewhere in transit, someone's plight
night beckons with a sleepless kiss
this should be what it seems
a long stretch of illness
a disease called in retrospection..

A Call To God
dead silence of fear lives
under the whispers of forgotten nights
held together by the unserene calm
intertwined into the fire in the sky
with each passing hour, closing in is the end
what horrors and which gallows awaits??
born into what is the three lettered curse,,
each day nothing changes but nothing's same..
call upon the so called god
ask how this curse is their fault??
what created this divide??
and dared to be named god
as screams it begins to spread
another fire from above
as hopes it begins to fade
the ceiling crashes down
held in those eyes last light of life,,
the fire burning red beside the stars..
broken hearts and broken souls,,
smiling tears and embracing hands..
call upon the so called god
ask how this curse is their fault??
what created this divide??
and dared to be named god

Gray Void...
Like words suspended in the stillness of the night,
in transparent shades of black and white,
that never left her sullen lips,
fearing rumours, of a sanity slipped.
And she tracked her footsteps, stops and falls,
tainted with labels, her knowledge, its calls.
And no hint, no word nor whisper adhered,
to the sentence, of an image smeared.
The world spun round, twisting her neck,
Pity handed her a mask, to cover the wreck.
Her first steps faltered, she wore it too long,
Her souls stood by her, she didn't transform.
The test's to break you, survival is made,
Death's the only finality, the prophecy said.
Oceans sped eastward, fell unbroken off the cliff,
fatalistic doubt, for once proved a gift.
The earth could'nt rip her, tried to swallow her whole,
her heart broken in two, and turned to a hole.

Killing Climaxes...
Slide into forbidden spaces,
as tempting,
as the apple to eve,
through twisting alleys,
hushes, screams,
muffled yelps and cries,
warm and frothing,
locked in deep,
thrust into its heart,
and if you closed your eyes,
you'd hear its blood,
flowing,
mixed with the wind,
and its howls,
so loud,
so firm...
rattling inside you,
plunging in, swimming out,
a million per second.
Crushing you,
like a mountain fell into you,
then its gone,
the world as you know it,
the gods and their glory,
they said you'l get closer,
but only empty lies,
like this place,
the ball of smoke,
that got lost inside you,
instead of dissolving you,
and its gone,
the shackles, the pain, the joy,
and you.
And left standing at the edge of the ocean,
looking over the tip of the world,
You,
Free to roam,
Free to think,
Free from having to obey,
Free from knowing,
how.

Encipher Zion
Vermillion quotes
Coveted by the gullible
Believer, believing the sacrament
In the essence of the lotus
Pure and purifying
By daring to listen
And to speak ambivalence
The absence of the severed
Sands and mirrors
Perceived equivalence
The truth in the lies
The damned pandemonium
Inhumane tasks persist
And so 'we' make a stand
The conception of being
One for all, none for all
The gate to harlequin lines
Through entranced eyes
Conjure the vortex
Conjure the infinite light

Fold
Jilted me halfway the fluid snooze
Panting, lancing the closet scent
To washbasin to throw up the booze
That had me fouled utter offhand.
Stooping favoured blood to rush
Did good to unfold a vodka view
Of my mirror, your mugshot crush
Invariably bids my chances adieu.
Upshots of snubbed hallucinogen
Ghosted the coupled air to blot
Your flashback asking to moisten
Was hence a mere part of the plot.
Showering is shortcut to thoughts of
All that no one else will ever know
For it mists the desire lines of love
Like gin one does to fireplace throw.
With water I created light when hit
It moonshined taste of losing score
Systematically if it’s you I must quit
Chips worth kitty sprawled the floor.
-Fareed
Like Autumn Touched Leaves
Memories, of a moonlit orchard;
Of Apple trees and grass a shimmering green.
Moving pictures of still water rising,
And hands clasped in silent prayers.
Memories of twinkling church bells,
Of sunlight shining through the brush.
The land of promise, Of silence serene,
The land where lads once played.
Sheep clouds caressed the shineless Sun,
As rain rippled the morning brook.
Wasn't there an Ocean blue beneath raven hairs?
And the glint of cherry under a hill of flesh?
But all fell like Autumn touched leaves,
Swept away by a wind so calm.
Weathered memories like realities faded,
As he saw the stone upon his palm.
Snatched away from his hills and waters,
He gazed upon the silent lands.
Blackness swallows the evening sun,
And night falls upon the floor of sand.
And then the rain begins to fall,
Washing over a barren terra broken.
The lonely white tree sheds it's tears,
And as the last leaf fell from wet branches,
Winter was come again. And still the memories...
The Memories...

The Revelation Mist
Trees scarred by lightning
Weep with the drops of rain
In the forest of shadows
The advent of a frosty winter
Enflamed messages folded
Under the sky of magenta
The scar beneath the skin
Now in a dreamy dominion
Pass the preserved milestones
He rides to break the stigma
When night falls short
Of reaching almost there
Waltzing through the void
Sings the breathless wind
The body inscribed in frost
While the soul travels beyond

Permeable Ghost
July 4, 09
Empty words waver into songs,
Into souls you don't care to feed,
Cigarettes burn into tongues,
And liquor is the eye to infinity.
And only.
And only because you want
You want your words to be empty.
Feel them and desire nothing,
Permeable ghost,
You can die but you don't die
From the constant way you bleed,
Beggar from the few,
You feel your life is empty.
-July 4,

Risvegliarsi
Embedded fears and braided convictions
The winding spiral of zero
Personifying resplendence
And the knowledge of lacuna
Commencing a swarm of locusts
In the face of armageddon
The only way is to learn
Clutching, and past anguish
In a pallid slumber's dream
The asleep seraph coiled in the corner
The night ushered inside
In the domain of coldness
So we revive the blade
And the aegis of absolution
Waiting behind the windows
Lost no more in reveries
The light running over skin
Elevating sempiternally
The warriors arise, with raised swords

Early morning, Windows speak. Pianos play and the devil dreams. Spins a tale, we all go round. Turning, turning, and I fall down. Early morning, Windows break. Moonlight glistens and bodies stray. Haunting rhythm, broken speech. It all occurs when I feign my sleep. Early morning, Wind blows calm. All for one, but none for all. Nightmares seek, lighting the way. Mirrors are shown, night to day. Early morning, Wind picks up. The sands of time have filled my cup. Once a beggar, always used. Pianos play, possessions and tools.
~Ayesha
The Escalating Fear Of Water
Lights, Lights, glimmering bright lights,
Desolate crests of waves ignite.
Shimmers of darkness upon a glossy chest,
The oceans froths in debilitating fright.
Her wooden brow gleams with salt,
And the tattered sails dither in winds.
When the silent Skies are torn by lightning,
The swelling ocean buffeted by the storm.
Rain, like silent raindrops, fell
From the glittering darkness of overcast skies.
The darkened sun from beyond the rainclouds grins,
Over the storm thrashed floors of oak.
The murderous winds have destroyed the lands,
For away on the island fallen trees abound.
Desolate lands greet the dark morning,
And a silent howl is the only sound.
Her fluttering flag tears away,
And falls in the white water.
Above the Earth lies an angry ocean,
And below the Skies a caravel falls.

Bolted Homes...
Running past cuts and bruises,
she's turning towards home,
broken wood and sealed doors,
love's gone, clothes out thrown.
The halls burn hollow, echoes her own,
windows like promises, shattered in tears,
bleeding insanity,pouring rain,
and it's her only one, to hear.
