Shadows

Leading nowhere

Reflected in a mirror

Intricate shards in wooden frame

Splinters

Start running because i'm here

My Heart

My heart warned me 
‘’I am so tired 
As a slave I worked 
Without rest till now 
But you beat and wounded me 
I will die soon’’

Mom's Day

With gentlest care
as cool mountain air,
she heals the wounded 
scars of why I am.
Mother's whisper, 
soul's soothing balm.

Over A Wounded Sea
 Of

Hate

poor wounded child -
they did something bad to you
and it caused you pain
but you let them have your life 
so - now - who is it you hate?

Nature the Suture

Nature the suture
that palpably stitches
the wounded souls...

Freedom

Its foundation built on sacrifice
maintained by the strength of belief
wounded by separatism
healed by patriotism
destroyed by disunion

Drifting Apart

Give and take
barbs
then retreat
to wounded silence
licking our lacerations
before picking up
where we left off
with the razor wires.

My Heart Wounded

Eyes glisten heartless;
These days I think whispers fade,
In my heart wounded.
Lost memories lay down now;
A blown kiss lost in silence...

Premium Member Knee

wounded knee-
take a knee-
knee to the neck- 
I can't breathe
knee to the heartbeat of society
now nobody can breathe-
because of a knee.

Premium Member Lost and Found

Gunfire wounded
temple time passes by
fleeing dominance, anger,
lovers linger lost
freedom glorified, homage;
saffron incense calls prayer.

Wounded and Broken

Time is a sick patient
Wounded and broken
From the battle scares of history
Sitting in this wheel chair
Unable to follow
The path of the sun

Haiku

Meditate on 'Him'
                                       helpless wounded broken hearts
                                       only true healer

Dead Body

The body lies without movement.
One called police. Man might be wounded.
The cellphone rings and man wakes up.
My uncle Bob just took a nap ;-D

Wounded Wishes

Of broken wishes,
like twisted, cracked twigs once green,
we speak in whispers
hoping to graft them to limbs
gently taped, repaired, to bloom.

A soldier, wounded in wartime, comes back home, no welcome, post traumatic disorder ~ life is living hell.

wind blows dry  at night,

                            wishing you're here by my side,

                                blaze this wounded heart.

Alpha and Omega

pack clan were all together
preying on the wounded
red beady eyes
fangs of sharpness
a beautiful coat
helps me the most
stay warm in the winter

	your dark eyes... your lips 
	are just barely visible
	despite the darkness
	as veiled as they are exposed
	tender... and perhaps wounded
sad
