the king travelled incognito
mixing among the commoners
both delighted and also envious
of how they find joy in simple things
content even in poverty and shortages 
and then the king discovered their secret

they were all centred in heart
and not in narrowness of mind

even after garnering this deep knowing

Premium Member Muffled Screams of Helplessness
the all-consuming dread
beneath a veneer
of equanimity, 
impenetrable
by eyes of keen observers.
by all appearances,
all is copacetic,
but under his smiling mask, 
unmitigated disarray.
a cauldron of caged anguish
simmer
without boiling over.
his screams of helplessness,
muffled;
registering below
a whisper.
he's at his wit's end;
a beast of burden
with his world of troubles

Helplessness
I’m helpless in the face of your pain,
Useless completely and unable 
To comfort you, trying to remain
Delicate, and subtle, and careful.

I’d like to invent a magic cure
For your sorrow, but I’m no sage.
I can’t believe and can’t endure
The impossibility of any change.

And I’d like to...

Helplessness

Today his birthday;
expected to
be too glad, they'd say
lived tough time through.

But, why he looks sad?
What's the reason?
Ah! boys made him mad
as they're teasing?

The thought he can't act
as others do
makes him sad, it's fact;
they also knew.

He feels helplessness
needs benevolence.

Helplessness of God
God wants to make love
With His sweet dream-girl;
He doesn’t do that
Cause there’s no one else
Of His weird species!

If God creates His sexual organs
And then He makes love with any woman
His sperms will destroy the universe
Because of huge amount of His sperms!

God wants to eat things;
He...

Panic
I'm not sure where I am sometimes Mentally.
I Lose the line between whats fiction and Reality.
I look around the room after moments of being thoughtless,
 just to realize i never left and the keys still in my pocket. 
I chase the shadows from the walls...

When Lies Run Deep
Between your truth and mine
Your needs and theirs
Embedded within wanton desires
Coated with your fears and mine
We forget compassion
Lo, we lose love
We get sucked into the chaos
The chaos, the helplessness

Between your truth and mine
I find a gulf of loneliness
A valley of lies that run deep!...

Tears fall, silent rain,
Heart aches to heal unseen wounds.
Hands reach, touch the void,
In the dance of shadowed dreams,
Love whispers, yet remains bound....

What a Blessing
When the geometry of  sombra
seems to have a life of its own on the underworld walls, above the surface arrogance takes shape believing that it is more intelligent than, I, who can see the train coming. Uncertainty won’t bother impotence resting on earth’s shoulders,...

I’M TIRED TOO
Every time you slammed the door 
Every time you dropped the call 
Every time you yell at me through and through 
I get tired too. 

Every time you passed before me 
Every time complaints ring upon me 
Every time murmurs being me 
I get tired...
