on gujarat riots

opening the eyes wide
the vision that has me enthralled
screams which pierce my soul
the spirits looking on, all overhauled.
suffering that they began
wounds that they dig in us hard
now each day i work along to fill
cursing those b**t**ds to have sons retard.
softly the air blows
the scent of blood that oozes in it
nobody here realises that
how life is so much full of sh*t.
i need to work this out
i need to make their world new
that which was destroyed by the cowards
i would rebuild along with the chosen few.
o god, o god, up there,
i need you to be with me,
while i fight this holy war and die,
on my beloved ones shall you oversee.
each day i think
each moment they remind me
the silent begging eyes of children
ones who never wanted it to be.
death when becomes dream
which comes up in eyes open
scarred by pernicious reality
each breath labours hard to find a clan.
opening the eyes wide
the vision that has me enthralled
screams which pierce my soul
the spirits looking on, all overhauled.

rocking with agony

if it had to be me
why didnt i see
the toughest times were coming
the winds were storms becoming
in the face of it all
i wish i could stop, the fall.
here I come……….
to the depths of the dark
in the valley of mist
what miseries, can I list
when shall it stop
on joy will I hop

all eyes looming on my soul
laughing at me, they're having a ball
no one stretching his arms
no one trying to give alms
smiling with vengeance
testing my allegiance
growling with patience
i keep on the fall
hitting the wall
in the valley of mist
what miseries can I list
when shall it stop
on joy will I hop.

unusual

it had to be seen
when i woke up one day
in lands close and nearby
i saw the words i say.
i had a call
with "love" that day
saw him depressed
and in deep dismay.
shaking that he was
with fears unknown
hard to console him
i struggled for words gone.

finding his feet
searching for a ground
i fell with him
without a groan or a sound.
while we took a walk
and shared our ideas
mid way he stumbled again
and took his breath last
dying there in my hands
vowing to meet again
he bid me bye,disappearing in sands.
i shall always remember
i had a call
with "love" that day
saw him depressed
and in deep dismay.

where is our present?

Worried too much about my past
O dear,you just seem to be
While I dwell in our future
In all this, the present, we cant see.
Trying to create the fabric of love
The threads from my life I collect,
Trying to attach the links of my past
My soul's worth, you work to detect.
Learning all along the way
Each mistake in itself has been my lesson.
But all this has been a pain to you
Which my heart's beat tries hard to lessen.
I beg mercy from you and from all
for being so selfish in the recent past.
Wish it had been a wound to me only
And none of this had made you feel aghast.
But i wish the light of my future
One wherein you shall shine,
Can make all the gloom of yesterday
Run away without a slightest whine.
Prayers that rouse from the guilt within
Wind around my soul with each moment
Screaming all the time for you happiness
these words have feelings, you alone foment.

wishes

O mother, raising me in times hard,
Times which were tough to last
I worry each moment for our future
It should never have a moment of past.
With enough courage I put it out
Right in front of your feet, sweet mother.
I wanna have you both in life
God, never ask me to choose one over another.
O mother, I found someone to love
To love, but lesser than I do to you.
She shall remain the breath I take
But its the soul that is only you.
She has worries of her own
I shall bear them with mine too.
Would work hard to make you happy
as well as her kith and kin too.
Aspiring to make it all right
Forming reality out of dreams.
Nothing shall stop me all these
Yours prayers alone I need, it seems.
Life they say is a garden
And you both are the fragrances.
To plough the weeds out
Would take all my intellect's nuances.
Pray hard for me, mother,
O angel, who brought me to this world,
I bring with me another fairy
to start afresh in the universe old.
