Shattered Dreams In The Sky
Dreams were shattered like glass shards, As innocent lives were pushed into the jaws of death. Some doctors, engineers, accountants, and bards, Extinguished were the candles of their breath. A wife was on her way to meet her spouse, While the daughters and sons aspired to study abroad, Alas! Fate destroyed someone's beautiful house, As the passengers were destined to embark...

Tragedy
Indie swizz Green and white On top of hills A view unlike A tale of heaven, a place to repent Now is none but a grave of men, The song of winds turned to echoes of mist, The crown of hind, now blood missed Quite waters, a red fountain Land of joy now weeps with mothers' cries A...

Tragic and Unfair
why did it begin in the first place? and then why, it have to end so early? it was meant to be another lovelorn story, a story with arcs developing faster than fiction everything shattered in the blink of an eye our first conversation, it was all accidental and so was our fate- it was tragic and unfair...

Trapped by twisting strings
We are not trapped by iron bars ~ but by vibrating strings in a play Stars, atoms, creatures and time itself are string figures still quivering Ten heavens are trapped together by these unseen strings still weaving All between the innumerable fingers of Saklas, still twisting (Inspired by the scientific hypothesis of string theory, which states...

The Tragic Death Of A Girl So Young
The river runs with silver light, A ribbon wound through fields of white. The moon looks down, so round, so bright, On love that whispered in the night. She walked alone, her heart so wild, A dreamer lost, a trusting child. Soft words had lured her to the deep, Where water sings and shadows creep. Beneath the branches bending low, She met the one...

Desolate Dynasty
Encased in an isolated castle of an old fool’s paradise, A decaying dagger rests upon a distressed oak table. Frayed book pages scatter across termite-riddled floors. The calligraphy carries echoes of triumphant battles, Vividly etched in ink. A revered legacy is forgotten in decades of decay, Its inked glory...

Our tragic end
When I wanted someone to call You used to be there I watched you grow distant I don't think it's fair In every argument and fight You found a way to play the victim I'm used to being a villain now That was just our system I know I've caused you pain But you hurt me too I'm sorry for thinking of me When I...

Doom's Day
Once the earth was green and alive. But now it is dreary and dying. What is left is deforestation, logging, fossil fuels, industrialisation, more fuming factories and pollution. The air we breathe was once fresh, the oceans and rivers clean and uncontaminated. We are now on the verge of extinction but no one is...

Polarity
I love you so much, that you can only disgust me now All your flaws and red flags spark crimson, like a seductive rose. Gross and yet longing for your body to seek for every blemish there To point, prod and pinch deeper with a gentle lover’s touch. I loathe the time spent together but weep miseries when we part Knowing months will pass...

Drivers pay attention, you need to be more attentive, aware and alert Distractions are very dangerous resulting in somebody getting hurt Reckless drivers have drivers, walkers, joggers, and cyclist in a panic Now leaving home for an drive, jog, walk, or ride can end in a tragic There's plenty of areas to pull over to handle what can...

A warrior's death comes quickly fixed firmly upon his King's pro choice when he crosses the great divide separation from a body wheat and chaff To Honour virtues as laid upon stone correctly where his worth is weighed under moral conduct through one needle eye threading to the source against valiant deeds defending justice Corrupt chaos is...
