Poems

FORLORN

"I went through one mountain and back through another Fell by wind waves, these streets forlorn…"

I STAND

"The last light on the horizon, A rainbow caught between the trees, The thought of love that's fading, A golden leaf caught in the breeze."

EVER-BURNING SULPHUR

"The fire-smouldering inside me from the last four Thermal summers and five inclement winters, More inflammatory and much more ruthless."

WHEN YOU WAKE UP?

"When you wake up? I am still waiting. Candles are to die. And the hearts are to break," writes the poet.

PEACE

"Peace is what we are longing for. We fight wars for peace. There are battles for peace. We remain sad for peace."

FLOWERS WITHER AWAY SOON

"Flowers wither away soon. The fragrance ends in a jiffy. And the charm doesn’t last for long. Gardens are watered to dry, Seeds are sown to die."

OUR HEARTS LEAVE US EVERY DAY

"Our hearts leave us every day, Without leaving traces behind. Dying in others' homes. And coming back to their homes is their habit."
