Soul Curry




In boiling bother of this boring afternoon
bubbling and besieged by the broody look
upon thy face..

I seethe with sultry stupor
of senseless sanity, surrendering to the silence
of the bridges in-between..

I long for the lovingly lonesome and lavish
pauses..


I babble in incomprehension
I saddle up to go to the sun
I laugh away the moments gone

coz there are more to come around.

Get Frosted!

WIND AND WINDOW FLOWER


Lovers, forget your love,
And List to the love of these,

She a window flower,

And he a winter breeze.


When the frosty window veil

Was melted down at noon,

And the caged yellow bird

Hung over her in tune,


He marked her through the pane,

He could not help but mark,

And only passed her by,
To come again in the dark.


He was a winter wind,

Concerned with ice and snow,

Dead weeds and unmated birds.

And little of love could know


But he sighed upon the sill,

He gave the sash a shake,

As witness all within

who lay that night awake.

Perchance he half prevailed

To win her for the flight
From the firelit looking-glass

And warm stove-window light.

But the flower leaned aside

And thought of naught to say,

And morning found the breeze

A hundred miles away.

Absence




Out alone in the balmy night
just looking for someone to fight
I stand alone by the swing
fighting the frustrations from within

Nothing.. to prepare
Nothing.. to rebel
Nothing.. to love
Nothing.. to gain

Have been caged here in solitude
I seem to be lost to my friends..
Because eventho they write to me
I sometimes think they pretend..

hoping for a remedy
to cure away this pain
I long to be with someone again
to fill up.... the absence

*Saanjh*



saanjh ki nami mein

saason ki baarish

simte hue ek pal mein
afsaano si khwaish..

dubte hue suraj si
dhalti hui aankhen
bheege un lamhon mein
thehar jaane ki khwaish..


girte hue patton ki
sehmi si sarsarahat

jannat ki is mehfil mein
ghar basane ki khwaish..

har saanjh mein, ek pal
ek pal , ek lamha
ek lamha yun jismein
poori zindagi jee lene ki khwaish..

Nanoseconds



Rupturing a heart
watching it explode
a million pieces gone
a million more to go
chanting an anthem
commanding the pain to go
i stand still
the emotions flow
staring at a reflection
willing for it to change
...................................... a penny for your thoughts
the stranger exclaimed
bringing up a smile
on a tarnished face
................................. All goes on
on its usual pace
no the world doesnt stop
to acknowledge your pain
.............................. It lets you go
so that you can let go
living the life
one nanosecond at a time
