Subimal Sinha-Roy Poet Free verse

Refracted Essence

Rhapsody of rainbow splits in morose mélange
Bleeding colors sucked from crumbled clouds
Rainstorm rinses the stains on broken hearts
Shades of grey paints the frayed linen of love.

Requiem of rose echoes melancholic medley
Petals hold the tear in drops of mourning dew 
Dries under the summer sun of desert mind
Wilted flowers lay posy on the spent passion.

Cacophony captured in the melody of music
Chaotic orchestra rides on disharmony wave
Strained smiles bared in dark podium of life
Songs turn convoluted noise in hollow souls.

Facet of life seen through liquefied cynic stratum
Sunken essence of living refracts vile contortions.
