Premium Member The Doomsday Clock

It was two minutes until doomsday
and she struggled to finish her text.
it was an awkward time to break it off
but she couldn’t plunge into eternity
with her lover, still attached to her wrist.

And he waited patiently as he looked
at the clock, hoping for x’s and o’s,
deluded and hopelessly clueless.
when the bomb dropped,
they’d be engaged — for sure, he thought.

With edward-scissorhands, the minutes cut precariously
like darkened shadows upon a frozen tundra,
and the hour will strike like an asp,
the sting will melt the counterfeit humans.
one last cloud of dust, for angels to sweep
into the dustbin, after eternity is settled.

Two minutes before, politicians try to knock
each other out, shouting down the seconds,
with loud colors in dresses and ties, pretty hair
in permanent dye and handsomely slicked back.
they very much doubt the veracity of the doomsday note.

Only one human cries, tears falling upon a seed
that would never rise, a form that turned in her belly
with protruding arms and legs. she would lay hands
on him and love him with her palm until the clock struck

Midnight.  and Cinderella will never again lose
her glass slipper, no prince will anxiously search for her,
a pumpkin carriage will vanish without any inhabitants.

Two minutes, enough time to chew off fingernails,
to unwind your tattletail tongue, down shots,
drive yourself into a wall, to call your mother —
now that you have nothing to lose. humans

Before extinction, collaboratively can produce
many sins before they cut the earth’s crust loose

Countdown...starts...now

Premium Member Unsinkable

(RIP Titanic April 15, 1912)

So near my God to thee, his spirit calms -
there is no arrogance unsinkable -
its icy fingers melt within the psalms,
and hopeless paths become unthinkable.
The frozen ships of white drift through the night
along with lunar winds on cosmic breath.
Clandestine vessels on a fated flight
now sink with solemn prayers that measure death.
So cold the sea, so cold its blanket warms -
the din that's all about at once is stilled
and stars meet at the sea, and there they swarm,
together in a peace that's now fulfilled.
    Up to the heavens float a holy wraith
    that beckons and renews undying faith...

Undermined

what once was bright
is now a terrible fade
an indominable feeling
that hope once gave
i'd look at you and
my heart would melt
in the beginning thats
exactly how i felt
now i've seen 
those feeling depart
and something diminished
pulls us apart
all that extra energy
just seemed to desolve
after suspisions of unfaithfullness
became involved
my illusions decreased
and came to a cease
and my stary stare 
became a glare
what was  once deemed ours
now yours and mine
all of love disitegrated
by one single crime
instead of love
i have the passion of hate
feelings well hidden
as i resolve my fate
looking for a get away
away to escape
an open door
an unlocked gate
once a secret love
now a secret hate
i wanted to be with you
but now i want to escape

You-My Soul Voice

When you get your sabbatical leave,
it endow me heal....
I shine like pearl with maunder in galore......
You are as precious for me as Coral is precious for the diver.
You are my desire;
make my heart light on fire....
I always thy admire.
When I see you I feel pleasure......
it seems......you are my life's treasure.
In your love I feel lots of pain.......
but your glimpse from my porch and pane makes me insane.......
My heart of love towards thy is divine;
This is the true love......which in words I can't define.....
You're the only person I'd want by my side.
I chortle with thy smile, eyes,laugh,warmth,existence,and voice......


It is unforgettable to forget your smile;
I always wear your given smile.....
Your absence makes me demise.....
Your gaze makes me melt.
Your presence make my day;
Your one sight make my day bright......
I know you never betray.......
but I know one day we would be tear  away.....
but it is truth that without you I always be stray.....
It's very intricate to delude thy souvenir......
I just want your shelter.......
Without you all heavenly things are insipid;
Thine affinity make me thee aficionado.
Let's go there.........where there is no one.....
only you and I ........and together we are one......




After your departure I find; 
I lost the world  which was mine......
You are my soul voice.....
I call upon you twice, thrice and many more times.......
I don't want your dime but all of your time.....
I'm in thy fascination; 
but can't make it as my confession.
Depth heart's love lasts to an eternity......
true love knocks down the wall of difficulty.....
but it never fails, never dies , never gets down and will go on for life.


Neither break up nor patch up;
there is something which is melodious.......
my eyes open and closes to you;
myriad  dreams  just with you........
not only for what you are, but for what I am......
I brood  over you million times......
I meditate and peruse only just you.
Thou only my;
Untill the eternity of my....
Untill the eternity of my..... 
Untill the eternity of my......  


Oh!! Your absence make me cry..............

Sweet Nothings

Sweet Nothings.

Kisses are sweet as candy
The feelings last longer too.
Caresses are sweet beyond compare
Especially with you.
Candy full of bubbles, is a hollow empty shell
You in my arms are the sweetest,
That’s what they should sell.

Candy cannot touch the sweetness of your loving kiss
All the chocolate in the world I would rather miss
It is nothing compared to the warmth of your  sweet caress
If you were a bar of chocolate, you would melt and be a mess.

There are sweet nothings that people often spout
When true love is here, we all hear the shout.
Who needs candy or chocolate bars, the taste gone in just a minute.
But it can give us some pleasure 
Especially if you're wrapped in it.


My Boy

You are the love of my life.
The sweetest little pea.
Where would I be without you?
I just wouldn’t be me!

You brighten every moment,
Of every single day.
I can’t imagine life without you.
Here’s what I have to say,

You are my sunshine,
You are my rain,
You bring me happiness,
You bring me pain.

You make me smile,
You make me cry,
You make me happy,
You make me high.

You bring me peace,
You bring me joy,
You make proud
That you’re my boy!

Sometimes when I look at you 
I can’t help it but to cry,
You make my heart just melt inside
I feel like I could die!

I love to hold you in my arms
And kiss that little nose
I love to kiss those soft soft cheeks
And play piggy with your toes.

I prayed for you to come to me.
God knew I needed you so.
I promise to keep you safe
And never let you go!

You are my sunshine,
You are my rain,
You bring me happiness,
You bring me pain.

You make me smile,
You make me cry,
You make me happy,
You make me high.

You bring me peace,
You bring me joy,
You make proud
That you’re my boy!

I will always keep you protected.
I’ll never let you see,
Just how evil people are.
I’ll teach you how to be.

I’ll teach you how to be happy,
To be respectful and be kind.
By the time I am finished with you,
You’ll be one of a kind.

Premium Member Dream Melting In Trance

The night you left with our love's wilted flower
the gloomy sky was falling down in gentle shower.
In the soft streetlight I saw your sodden silhouette 
slowly disappear in the wet haze, I couldn’t forget.

The scene sank deep in the maze of my memory,
for years weaved the tapestry of our untold story,
I thought someday I’d spread it on my poem new,
the only one I’d dedicate to our times and to you.

Memory has a strange habit of making dream,
in deep sleep they appear, unreal they don’t seem.
One night my eyes on edge of sleep saw you return
the way you departed, made my mute heart churn.

I opened the door, went out to let you in again.
The night was dark, drenched by the pouring rain.
I stood alone hit by the splash of cold water spray,
eyes sleepless, I saw sleepwalking dream melt away.

(In order to meet the rhyming scheme the poem exceeds
by one line over the stipulated 15 lines which I could not
help for the sake of the form)

Magic of Your Love

Magic of your Love

  Like an ice, like a chocolate
  I burn like a candle melt like wax
 
  Emotions bloom like a spring 
  Fall like a winter,In your love 

  seed like a stone which grown 
  like a tree, ink of blood 
  Sketch like a green 

  memories like a half glass of 
  water without living half 
  emptiness in a glass 
  In your love 

  An ego of a mountain to touch the sky 
  An ego of the sky to touch the land 
  My ego of a cloud to fall like a rain 
  In your love,

 pain of a needle,pattern of a butterfly 
 goosebumps in your love

 Babe colours of the water
 Rays of sun, the magic of your love

         Magic of your Love








 with love all

Premium Member Spring Will Return

A blizzard blew with intense ferocity,
shattered my warm tiny home I loved.
I took shelter alone in a dark cold hole,
as snow covered the trees and the ground.

Everything is now frozen still around me,
I am a captive of the harsh chilled season.
In the immovable congealed life I suffer,
hoping the severe winter is not forever.

Surely, spring will return with splendor soon,
the glowing sun will then melt all the snow,
new glossy leaves will sprout in bare trees,
the faded garden will bloom flaming flowers.

In the bright flushing hours of spring dawn,
I will hum the tune of the spectral sunburst,
keep the rhythm of the new found delight
within the closet of my silken scarlet breast.

The smoky mist will disappear from the air,
the clear sky will sparkle with azure luster.
I will fly free, sing the song of spring there,
as the songbird robin coming from the cold.

Premium Member Shadow Song


Remembering the ages, spent with my shadow – priceless moments when I sought her, scrutinized her, emphatically stalked her because, in reality, she was clearly stalking me! ~ quote by poet

~~~

Flowing,  a silhouette, dancing
Under streams of delicate light
In gentle whispers, entrancing
Persuasive musings who excite

Echoes of starry eyed wishes
Glistening beneath the moonlight
Sighs melt the breath as she swishes
Persuasive musings who excite

Glowing, figures freely strolling
Gesturing to the roaring night
Old followers need consoling
Persuasive musings who excite

Flowing,  a silhouette, dancing
Persuasive musings who excite
