Conversing amongst themselves most eagerly
They whispered like children in excitement
Their sardonic mouths sung many savvy tunes
It was Death I could perceive, defending me,
And he, a strange, distant friend
Seemed...

confidence, a blessing or a curse
Without confidence we stand degraded, disenchanted, alone
while with too...

Human Vs Society
Sometimes I feel so

Insignificant.



I have yet to understand why I’m here.

What’s my purpose?

Will I be forgotten easily when it’s time for me to go?

Or will I be remembered by many?

It’s difficult to pinpoint what makes...

Demanded unforeseen fate
Twins, thrust upon her…. strained to love, and yet….

Soaked from head to toe in the...

‘Twas but a mist-enshrouded speckle
dark-painted on looming horizon.
Petty worker holds unwavering watch,
silently, stealthily keeps his eyes on.

Forward motion undeniable,
each passing minute size increasing.
Small heart stands alert and viable – 
beating fast and tremulous; though, never...

I Pen This Promise With a Diamond Tip
The best lines always evade me;
I can never say what must be said

Allows it. Justly, for justice
folding up my life's essence,

I might seem cold and beyond your

Far from your love

A sinister shadow
My mind paints
