Devouring Carnal Desires

Lifeless, I lie here
On the bed of lust
Under the beefy quilt 
of mounting shame
With oozing hurt
And fading flame
To feed your lechery
with drops of salaciousness
Behind the closed doors
of raging prurience
As the rays of sun melt
In the heart of burning sky
I lay self down in gloom
And crouch down at your sight
As I bow, you drag me down
To feed your hungry soul
With the tender flesh
Of my puerile charm
And strangled glow
when the moon shines
Over the dying remains
Of my ebbing mind

Desert Rain

On a day so dry, a maiden so forlorn
Silently whispered in the ears of dunes
That flew a million miles with breeze
Erasing the tiny footsteps unseen
.......

Angel of Dawn

O' the angel of dawn! Hold my hand And as you rise, embrace my ailing heart To shield it from the grave sight of the well-lit moon melting into drops Of dew when the burning sun is born In the heart of the diseased sky That loses the beads of twinkling stars And adornment on the forehead of night's bride O' the angel of dawn! Embrace my eyes And as you rise, usher me to the world of trance Where there lies a million such beads On the forehead of the blooming sky Born out of the ashes of the gleaming sun When the twilight breaks the era of blinding morn Erase the dreams to awaken my soul When the angel of sundown is born

Naked Soul

Bright moonlight from heaven above And flickering rays from tiny stars Unveils the stealth of a soul so bare Lying beneath a colossal, blue mass An impoverished, naked soul Exposed to myriad prying eyes Of the glaring radiance of sun And of darkness of an eclipsed night Dearth of persistent humility Affluence of disparaging humiliation Zillion catastrophic wounds And a few blessed fortunes Mask the bareness of this being Yet, it stands naked amidst souls so mean

Dark and Mystical

As the twilight bid farewell to the sky of dazzling morn A desire crawled into the cells Of my heart,craving since long For the serene touch of the lilt that blows remains of stale air away And that resurrects the dead leaves As they move in sync with dancing breeze When moonlight gives birth to the dark shadows Of swaying leaves and my figure petite I walk hand in hand with shadow of my own On the lifeless streets of the town of Chiles I lift my nimble feet to tap them Against the flat shady ground My shadow mimics my moves And we dance together merrily To the music of serene breeze With the sound of the wavering leaves

Shadows In the Dark

Shadows in the dark are now what I see Murky pictures of the loved ones no more with me I stare at them with a trembling heavy heart For we are now millions of light years apart Shadows line up as an army of ghosts at my door Asking me to exit the door without the hurt which I once bore Grappling with the painful thoughts, I take a step forward Towards my loved ones, and never look backward Ah! The reflections disappeared with the break of the dawn I Ran around to find them with a mind so bogged down Alas! I fell off from my bed, it was a dream insane I shouted,'Hold on! I am feeling no more inane' For they showed me glowing light even in the dark Now I can find a way no matter how loud is the life's bark Shadows in the Dark will always show me the light To fulfill zillion dreams and win life's every fight

Bewitching Nights

On a lonely night, ages ago A timid soul let her worries flow Into an abyss of filth and scars At the sight of a colossal yellow mass Million miles the mass traversed in vacuum To let its rays rekindle the flame of dying love with hue And to chase the ghosts of sorrows away To a land so barren and not so gay She shed the layers of gloom To let her naked soul eternally bloom Embrace did she every hued ray Which made love to her in a surreal way Every touch defined an era of mesmerizing warmth Of the twinkling stars and moon so calm The lonely nights,ever since, bestowed endless love on a soul with no kins

Warm Freeze

Pattering drops of rain on the shattered remains Of my ebbing heart murmur as the twilight fades In the ears of the dark blooming Under the sheath of the eclipsed sky ‘Let me flow over the fire that burns in the harrowing silence of a grave That dwells in the dingy corners of filth Where festers the flesh of memories riddled with guilt The leaden clatter of my broken pieces Shall stitch the wound left open in the cold Ages ago by the warriors of morn And those of the smiling dawn A drop, though cold, shall light a hued flame To melt the ice that hides the moon behind life’s maze’
