STARS IN MY HELL-
Only the weak hide their scars,
I want you to scar me,
In your greater challenge,
I want to erase myself in your tired cry.
I want to be welcomed to the chorus,
To step out of my dream,
Crowded and lonely like my thoughts,
The sky is my weakness.
Away from protection,
There is a desperate calm.
How do you know,
What do you know,
When you know there’s nothing.
The wrong end of a sand glass,
All born in different universes,
But the same mind,
Born over and over again.
To me it came as a surprisee,
That on pillow I lay alone,
My fight lay beside me,
My thoughts were so tough on me.
Yet they released an immense innocence,
That I never needed to be lost,
Looking out at everything as myself,
Looking after the rain in my mind.

Tulika Gupta Poem
Shining upon the tranquil sea,
Beautifully in the starry night sky,
It gave a glimpse of the night,
So dark and so high.
The moon had a different glow tonight,
No hope for sadness,
The stars were like a crystal glittering,
Within its beauty,night was flickering.
Surrounded by the curtains of dark clouds,
Silent hearts but still aloud,
The planets yet so near seems so far,
They seemed like small balls
in a sparkly silent jar.
Suddenly in the black colour it all faded,
Faded in the emptiness of it all,
When a soft wind gently blew through the way,
A night though memroable,
In this beautiful universe it lays.

Tulika Gupta Poem
I lay my memories down,
On this forsaken path,
It was starting to bleed,
I sit alone in the room,
Night after night,
Calming myself against nothingness,
Which refuses to show its face,
I lie in a patchwork of the impossible present,
And the invisible future,
Into the wreck,
The fear well travelled,
I end where I started,
With the chase inside,
Left to even with the jungle,
Where we made the mistakes,
Headed for every gate,
The road burnt onto my heart,
Let me control the sunrise after,
The echo of the fall…..

Tulika Gupta Poem
Standing silently in the
blossom feathers,
Covered with pink
delicate heathers;
Its leaves were giggling
with the dew,
A leaf twinkled
as it flew;
In the soft wind
under the pearly moon,
The tree was about
to sleep soon;
I wandered in its
leafy arms,
The stars were flickering
to show their charm;
I was lost in
my own thought,
A tree in my heart
which I love a lot.
