The Dark one

I brought the light
From the sun to the land
I brought the light
Within water and between the sand
I brought the light
To lighten up all around
I never knew but
The darkness was within to be found

I left the place 
When I filled it with darkness
I buried the emotions
When I filled it with sorrowness
I emptied the heart
When I had spoiled it with hatred 
I cursed down the hands
I once held for bed and bread
I left it all
To find the best
I left it all
To look for the rest
With all I learned
Now I know
I left the place for light
When within me was the darkness

I cried out loud
I weeped out low
I wore the golden coffin
And pointed others flaw
With the flow I went
To look for the shore
Never knew that I was the depth
To be found amid the sea
And that no matter how far I go
The depth is filled with darkness

Yes, I was the darkness
Of the bright blues the world saw
And Yes, I was the sadness
Of the jolly roars of waves the world applaud

The Time



I walk on the side-lines of the memory
The one which haunts me
I walk on the pavements of the memory
The one which taunts me
I walk on the downtrodden path
Of my sins and my deed
I have in my store the unholy grain
From which no one I can feed
I have my hands shivering 
And eyes wet
I have my heart racing
And palms in sweat
I have all that I 
Never wanted to have
I got all of it
For I trusted for a while

Her smile was it?
Her eyes was it?
Was it her face?
Her gracious glaze
Or was it about the figure?
The heart's trigger

Some say, it was the time
Not the first rain
Not the first train
Not the first shop we went along
Not the chairs we waited to sit
Not the trip we had to quit
Not the words we spoke of others
Not the rainbows we filled in the colours

It was the time?
Yet it was
For only it can run
At the pace to turn
The days into nights
The nights into days
The dates and the months
And the praise into pun
It was the time?
Yes it was
Neither me nor her
It was the time!!
Yes it was!!

The Wait

Smell of the sand
Roar of sea
One was mystic
The other majestic
The moon along the stars
Adding to the glory of the night
Beneath of which mere I
Confused
Whether to let the wound bleed
Or keep it stitched

The time was adorable
I could sense the memories being churned again
I could feel the air taking turn again
Again I felt, a pinch in my heart
Again I fell, for the nature to be worth
Worth enough to praise each second it offers
Worth enough to amaze the greatest sorcerers


Let it remain, the way it should
Let it nourish, the way it should
Let us cherish, the way we should
I thought all this
Standing below the sky at night
With the roar of the sea
And the smell of the sand
I await for the day
When the sun shall shine
With the purest light

The Lady with the Light

The lady with the light
Light on her face
Darkness around
And pacing up the pace
Giving up her light
To light the dark
The darkness of her race
From the brightness of her face

A few people stood apart
Few fell in the line
Some praised the effort she made
Some taunted for tasting the wine
She, but still, turning deaf
Not overwhelmed by praise
Not brought down by ungracious gaze
Went on to conquer
Homes in the hearts
Hearts of the birds
Birds flying in dark
Dark, but as light as clouds
For the pinch of light
She rained on it
She saw the sides
No one else ever did

She was the lady with the light
Born to light up the seven coloured sky
She had to forego the darkness within
She had to swallow the venom of  her kin
She had to craft greatness
With her deadly claws
Why then she stands here ,like a sinful pause?

The Sailor of Dried Rivers

I don’t fear to die
But I do fear life
Life that I get
Each day to survive
I succeed in doing so
But not in life
I perceive happiness as what I’m getting so
But not able to believe about it
Irrespective of where I reside
I know all of it, is what I decide
I know all of it, is not merely something written in sky
It’s the reaction of my action
The furniture I had chosen for my mansion
The breeze of the river I banked upon
And the job I had left quoting tiresome
Still, I stand with the mindset
That I can do without anyone’s handset
For wings are only needed by the birds 
I’ll fly with dreams within my life bed
I’ll ignite the rocks that are wet
I’ll simplify the puzzle others explain as complex
I’ll withstand the heat
Within my feet
And amalgamate the two
Both me and my life
Doesn’t matter if it’s false or true
It will be a fact 
The day I’ll do 
And all will hail
For the sailor who sailed
From the dried river’s blues.

The curse, Reborn!

The curse of her eyes
Reborn
The pain & the plight
Reborn
Reborn, the darkest night
Reborn, the mightiest fright
Reborn, the gloomy days
Reborn, the broken fate
Reborn, the hands which back stabbed
Reborn, the sins on which it bragged
The thunders! Listen what roars sounds like
The lightning! Witness how brightness shines like
The shivering in the spine
Reborn
As the curse of her eyes
Reborn!
