Howl of pain

Serenity and peace is all that I dream of
Breathing - I am
But eyes open and I see
Blood all over
Bombs thrown in, to break lives around
To break minds
Innocents die
Lives whipped in the name of religion
Mind wonders which God says KILL
Father cries over the loss of his son
Life never would let him forget the last words of his son
“Father, Are you asleep? Where’s Ma?”
Tender years unable to realise the loss of birth givers
A day to celebrate the day of its birth,
And the tender child is ‘gifted’ with its parent’s death
Deserve, does it?
Save the home – The soldiers do
Losing their lives – to the cruelty bleeding the home
Ruthlessness rejoices seeing the blood and broken lives
Life – is all that matters to the lives
But cruelty stings the poison deep in
Silence in cries, Agony in tears
Shriek in hush-hush dead air
Cry of anguish and loss
Quiet in chaos – melancholy
No mind of any God said KILL,
Yet lives take lives.

Glad we met!

Chirpy days and sunny nights!
Smiling through the walkway
Looking around to find you
In a corner of my eye
That sparkle of joy, That tinge of red
Days fly away, waiting for that smile to fade
Waiting to check if the smile’s just for a while
But here comes the smile with every dawn
But here comes the rays of the smile every dusk
Peppy, Perky – I find me
You aren’t mine, yet you are
Glad I am, that we met
Just a handful of times yes,
But Thanks for the silent smiles
No one, but you gave them to me
I am here always, when you need
I’ll just wait for life to play
Its part of the game
Good, if we meet.
Thanks again!

My Kingdom

King, I am
Dynasties and States I own
My kingdom
I rule
Wars I fought
Bloodshed I have seen
Empires I built
Treasures I earned
Silver, Jewels, Emerald – I have it all
Slaves – I own
My empire
I wake up – to realize
I am the King of my own world
I am awake now
I am nothing
Nor do I own anything
Emperor of my kingdom
Was all that I was
I wake up.
