Best Memorising Poems

Tingles
    down my spine
for me it’s nearly time
my very first performance
in the Parkinson’s choir

Practising the songs
    morning
        noon
            and night
memorising lyrics
ready...

Petrichor petals 
float with departing zephyrs,
misplacing misunderstood messages,
whose true meanings are misinterpreted. 

Mislaid memories 
reflect on picture perfect puddles,
mentally memorising mistakes,
leaving behind a legacy of regret.

Painful passages
monopolise melancholic mind, 
bittersweet swansong symphonies,
seduce soulful spirit into a sabbatical.

Pessimistic penitence
engraves on blank expression,
depicting disease, drifting to death,
nauseating...

Such explosions of love ecstatic
from fumbling youths and naive romantics.
In wedded bliss when passions flowed
two people alone in honeymoon glow
Flammable pleasure, ignitable moments to treasure,
we did love, we did fight, You and I.

Like awaited episodes of a reality show,
responsibilities began to gnaw as they grow.
The...

Lost in life,
In an attempt at success,
Total confusion with every breath i take,
Living in an up kind of mood can be so, so memorising.

While living through a down is so, so much more horrifying,
Time wait's for nobody and doesn't slow my heart,
It still beat's as...

Is not God a concept, till we see Him?
How will memorising scriptures assist?
Conditioned beliefs make our soul’s light dim.
Love alone is real and that’s life’s gist.
A Hindu believes God takes many forms,
whilst for a Christian, Jesus is the all,
Muslims adore Allah, Buddhists bliss storms;
myriad paths,...

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT 1 : Number Four


Many chains, many locks and bars
clattered at four in the morning 
black bitter coffee drugged
a single bucket of cold water 
            it was winter

I had ten minutes to speak...

From    black-board    to    projectors,
the   education   system    has   never    been    diaphanous.

Your Teddy bear's call will prevail,
No matter how many times it fails,
One million attempts of peace treaties,
But you're still keeping on and on,
Just go...Joy go,
And show the world that you're still brave,
And firm,
I've just started learning from you,
Your creed and perm,
How to confront artificial storms,
And...

We are Muslims, 
we are Christians,
Jews and Hindus too;
Same blood runs in veins,
Made of same flesh and bone;
Same emotions,
Same love we feel;
God or Allah is same sense,
Word used differently,
In different worlds;
God Created humans 
to live side by side;

Inscriptions say,
"Surrender to me,
And follow pathway I draw";
"Live...

||A PHILOSOPHER'S SMILE||

yawning through the winds
hearing the whispers of the silent minds
drenching in the melody of songs
all of a sudden quivering eye lids…
 alerting the possible threats!!!

walking through the tender hearts
Dwindling with the frozen snows
My mind singing a sweetest song of silence
All of a sudden...

Chasing a rainbow 



Craving for respite in torrid weather, 
Some rain that could tranquil drought;
Memorising festal times revered together,
Wondrous moments of numero uno brought.

Nothing could abridge my deep anguish,
How long and hard I must have tried;
Sadness or depression to distinguish,
Euphoric apparently I although pried.

Hidden beneath...

Pain Never Leaves
It screams out in agony when it goes unnoticed. 
It demands to be felt by everyone.
No matter how much the body tries to reject the feeling,
It crawls through the skin like a thousand bugs finding food.
It comes to us by gushing out at...

Salt and sea breeze rubbed against my skin,
The soul left my lungs to inherit it’s win.
I looked around and found aesthetics in the dark,
Captured in polaroids , memorising my own heart. 
The reality is what I don’t allow them to see,
It’s covered in stardust, saved...

Music has always influenced my mind
it was something way down inside
my musical girls I would see every night
full-size posters on bedroom, I could confide

Olivia Newton-John following on 'Country Roads'
I felt 'So Hopelessly Devoted To You'
having seen 'Grease' on many occasions
so 'Physical' it felt 'I Need...
