Dearth and duress

Theres all so much and so less in me..

My eyes and my heart
are but reckless youth 

Shouldnt you wonder for a moment
before burdening it so 

Quite a lot of you
Weighs my dear heart,
down like an anchor
Shame that it Seldom grounds


What that is about you
The pondering is long and listless


The something that gnaws at my heart incessantly and 
leaves it all cold and in peril
Oh to gather you 
and all your colours and rhymes
Till forever ceases, if i could


The smile such of
the breeze
in summers harsh beating 

It hurts, this malady of hearts


But you just walk by 


And i, 
Have tides ,
ebbing back and forth my chest
Waves of bliss bidding farewell
Id clutch and grasp at the migrant waters
Theyd slip right out,
drag me behind 
for just a little stretch
Then leave,
no words for the orphan at the sands


You're out of arms reach,
Sweet sanctum of serenity,
An island that dwells in dreams

And our destiny is 

of the twisted stars 

and a frayed red twine...

From the river to the sea

The galleries silent, 

Some face the walls 

Did you see that 

The rivers are blood red

and they flow 

from forehead to homeland...

The empire of man

This is the empire of man,

Arson ,
Is the tongue of modern day prophets

Salvation,
In the bone and marrow of the "other"

The faith-starved stand tall,

And their monuments taller

The pilgrimage of gods to someplace holy...
