deja-vu

same shadows,
diffuse in tonight
it's essence is you
enrich a new light.

old paths,
come alive
as gazed before
brew a gush redefined.

leaves wither,
to bloom yet again
its fertility unknown,
till the parched rained.

smells delectable,
only fragrance changed
what remains now is,
what was left untamed.

clouds foreplay,
under the bubbling sun
steps sync in
and together we run.

vision blends,
vigour begs to defend
stranded the same way
walking the same highway!

survival

from the embers brazen,
i recollect
what's lost
and found
in the ashes beneath

under the moonlight tarnished,
i paint
fugitive shadows
trepid,
in redeeming its self

waivering winds witness,
incantation
unobstructed today
forlorn,
of the dead wanderer

gelid

sneering the caprice within,
i touch the incongruent winds
embalmed by its cold
as quivering hands reach out

refuting the laws of gravity,
i rise up audacious
with the sheath of deceit
caught in the eye of storm

awake

a fistful of memories, stolen from moments
a ghost, an angel in the remnants of time
a desire once, to burn in your arms,
a desire once, to experience trance

a fistful of anticipation, in your homecoming
a longing, a negligence dwells and deluges
a yearning, discreet, to open up to you
a yearning indeed to foget what i knew

a fistful of tears from the dry eyes
a fistful of bliss, dissolved in black
a dream painted in the sheer dark
a dream never completed the arc

a fistful of vengeance, hollering the mirror
a fistful of nudity clads the bereaved soul
a morning when i woke up 'awake'
a morning shall never be the same again

off the scars

concurring voices, of the understated misery
shrieks and shrieks
disappear into eerie

look atop,
the shadow eroded
pilfering peace
preyed beneath

tasting venom,
from the cynosure
whats looks elegant
is nothing but insinuated

beheld effigy
of a loathed leper
shredded to unrest
in halted breaths

a name forbidden,
a direction mistaken
a clamouring night
alas, disturbs silence

(un)knowing

letters inscribed on the sea sand

of grief and esctacy,

grit and chastity,

bathing it's shore everyday.

with the fervour of a pirate

his incredible dexterity,

and unmatched mobility,

he writes and writes all day long.

looking up the crimson sky

he draws and paints,

and brushes the stains,

with musings from heaven and hell.

a conforming smile infuses his mind

for answers are typed,

and queries are snipped,

once a sand, becomes a closet now.

blessed with the knowledge of the world

tranquilised dreams,

in bits and reams,

he's never had this sleep before.

'hey there young man'

who are you?

where are you?

peturbed eyes now look downright.

trailing the other end


a blurred horizon

or blurred vision?

he hears a quaint sound.

and extends his hand to the strand

stop!!!

wait!!!

while the letters float, far away.

rhapsodic

quivering hands,
flinching feet,
we swoon and surrender
drowned in eternity

rhythm flows,
to and fro,
a tickle feeble
a touch anon

lines jar,
shadows elope ,
floating my way
catching the infinity

and the chase begins,
ranting beat ,
catching up with the feet
unison of a kind

delirium unleashed ,
etched ecstasy ,
alas encore
as i dance out.

shine on

bestowed by the grace of thy lean,
the moon sprighted with cheer
picked by silence
caressed by clouds azure

ts shine grows and diffuses
swaggering to the tunes of zephyr
as i watch it in my darkness
in complete sangfroid
~the star afar~

to the lamp and its light

with a flash of smile,
and seven words to be precise,
darkness sheds
to the lamp of my life

eyes met,
after having met on several occasions before
what matters is the silence
and music it whispered

familiarity reckoned
eons of knowing, while we remained strangers
coy and lost,
given into the seeking

directions faked
running in circles, as we went straight
what seemed a dream
is now a moment lit

thoughts crystallised
and once a liking, now becomes a longing
dispelling notions
of virtues and vice

taken away
to the fancied air of instinct
like a trail of beads
knows no more a thing.

We'll try to stay blind
to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me in to cry

Who do you need,
who do you love
When you come undone

Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune
I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers
Can't ever keep from falling apart

At the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart
To pieces Lost,
in a snow filled sky, we'll make it alright
To come undone now

We'll try to stay blind
to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me in to cry

Who do you need,
who do you love
When you come undone ...

duran duran-obsession partii

I got a pocket,
Got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love
and I know that it's all mine

Oh, oh, ohDo what you want,
But you never gonna break me,
Sticks and stones
are never gonna shake me

Oh, oh, oh Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away

Take me away
to better days
A hiding place

i got a pocket,
Got a pocket full of sunshine

There's a place that I go
Where nobody knows
Where the rivers flow
And I call it home

And there's no more lies
And darkness is light
And nobody cries
There's only butterflies,

through a blurred vision

through a blurred vision,
runs down an ephipany
of what's transcribed
in the epilogue of time

through a blurred vision
the words seem so close,
just as betrayl decends
the ever sinking thoughts

through a blurred vision
i enter the forbidden
and forsee manifestation
of an obfuscated self

through a blurred vision
sight looses stride,
and procreates anonymity
reckoning for a while

through a blurred vision
i rejoice the blackout
for the acquisition
remains effectively personal

through a blurred vision
light of the day corners
the conscience of mind
soldering the abstract

through a blurred vision
i therefore see, what lies
digged and to be discovered
in the epilogue of time
