A rhyme of contradictions


Every time I think I mustn't ponder any more,
Fight the demons, and win the war
Each time somewhere the conscious breaks,
And goes out on a tangent.
Each time I think I will not try,
To reach the sky and learn to fly,
The bitter resolve just fades away,
And I am far from content.

Every instance of the plural,
Makes my mind just flip and whirl,
While slowly my life depletes to none,
And the abstruse comes a-calling,
The sounds of love bring me to real,
And I suddenly start to feel,
The deepest thoughts just cannot hold,
While I just keep on falling..

The inconclusive broken path,
That I traverse with the coldest heart,
Just breaks into a song of old,
And dances like amourous breathing.
There seems like nothing ever changed,
And I end up some more deranged,
The seasons just go floating past,
Like my transformations' unceasing.

Epilogue:

Destiny must come to rule,
Another day, another fool,
Loathing reason in every way,
She just smiles and comes to play,
Caught up in a desperate run,
All she wants is a little fun,
All conflicting she must leave,
As these stories she does weave,
Taking lives along the way,
We can have but little say,
Promises experience,
While we walk in wilful trance..

The day that hope died


The earth's a barren wasteland,
The rivers have now run dry,
Creatures of every concievable sin,
Roam the scarlet sky,
The little drops of yellow rain,
The tiny old woman cried,
Scorned the worn out souls of good,
The day that hope died.

The cruel jabs of fortitude,
Attack the lights of now,
The evil laugh of destruction,
Are the sweat in the workman's brow,
The putrid smells of silence,
When the last honest man lied,
The world we knew just melt away,
The day that hope died...

Fleeting love


Morning sunshine
The clink of a cup
Hot tea with no milk
Entwined in smoke
Raging embers
And conversation
Out on the balcony
With fair contemplation

Twisted commonality
Gifted pain
A pause in the regular
Seemingly insane
Endlessly gasping
For a dollop of air
Fleeting love
Just seems unfair

Holding on to the times
Of fantasy like none before
Of fascination
Of a different kind of love
A touch of excitement
A look of fervor
Drops of lust
As we get in the shower

Bathed in sunshine
Lost in time
Spent together
With no cause in mind
Breathing deep
In the fragrant last night
Waiting for the next
In evening light

Holding on
As time slips away
To inevitable reality
To another today
The pieces move interchangeably
While the heart's frozen in time
A longing remains
And a love sublime !!
