Solitude

📷image credit to Volker Lehmann

When dusk sets in for twilight,

Where shadows dance with pale sunlight,

A soul finds peace in silent grace,

In solitude, a sacred space.

No voices break the tranquil air,

No hurried steps, no worldly care,

Just whispers of the wind's soft song,

In solitude, where hearts belong.

A moment's pause, a breath so deep,

In solitude, the soul can weep,

Yet in those tears, a strength is found,

In solitude, we're truly crowned.

In solitude, the mind can soar,

To distant lands, to every shore.

Dreams unfurl like petals bright,

In solitude, they take their flight.

The clouds above, deserve extol,

In solitude, they quiet my soul.

A journey inward, calm and still,

In solitude, we find our will.

Through still lagoon and tall, green trees,

In solitude, our spirit glees.

A quiet strength, a gentle power,

In solitude, we bloom, we flower.

Dance of Seasons: An Ode to Adult Life

In the dawn of adult years, with dreams so bright and bold,

We step into the world, our stories yet untold.

The road ahead is winding, with highs and lows untamed,

Each step a dance of balance, with joy and sorrow named.

The midday sun of life shines down with fervent heat,

Ambitions climb the sky, as challenges we meet.

Successes bring us soaring, the peaks of joy we find,

Yet valleys wait with lessons, where growth is oft designed.

As twilight gently falls, and years like rivers flow,

We find a quiet strength in all that we now know.

The tapestry of life, with threads both dark and light,

Reveals a depth of beauty in the coming of the night.

Through every rise and fall, the heart learns to embrace,

The spectrum of our feelings, the breadth of human grace.

For in each high and low, life's richness is unfurled,

A journey of emotions, in the theater of the world.

Whispers of You in the Silence

In the quiet of the night, I feel the space,
Where once you stood, now an empty place.
The moon casts shadows, soft and low,
But none can match your gentle glow.

The stars, they whisper across the sky,
In their twinkling, I hear your sigh.
A universe vast, yet you're not near,
In every silence, it's you I hear.

The breeze carries memories, sweet and clear,
Of laughter shared, of joy, of cheer.
Yet in its wake, a single tear,
For all I wish, is you were here.

In dreams, I find you close once more,
We dance on some celestial shore.
But morning breaks, and dreams must fade,
Leaving behind the love we made.

So I'll hold tight to what once was,
To every memory, every cause.
For though you're gone, the love still true,
In every beat, my heart calls for you.

~ €mpêråtrïzV

Let me know who you are,
A stranger walked towards me.
The empty stare, a million things.
Yet the smile brought comfort to the wariness in me.

A gleaming eyes that stark through me,
Seeking the soul out from within,
Wondering eyes searching deeper,
Looking vigilantly for something amiss.

Continuous wandering...
Finding ourselves in each others' arms,
Unmindful of the past that they wanna leave behind...

One I Would Not Have

📷SWani

Souls connected from afar
Hearts though aren't meant to be.
Out there in the wilderness,
An affair of body, soul, and mind.
In time for each adulation
But one never gets to indulge.

Whims of desire entrapped both.
Amiable as it ended,
Neither one has perfected.
Indeed distance bestowed absence.

Entrapped by the appreciation accorded.
Main tum say payar karti hun,
Is not a regret to be spoken of.
Love has created a wonderful experience,
Yet, One I would never have.

A Walk in Paradise

📷image credits to Shutterstock

Loneliness lurked inside of me,

Yet you came to share the seashore.

The world only our eyes can see,

Enchanted by the earth's decor.

Walking through the glistening sand,

We let the warm, soft breeze touch our skin.

The floral yellow dress sways

on its hem

And the warm breeze swirls

both our hairs.

Mesmerizing the happiness

the nature brings,

Hand to arms, eyes to words.

Sweet words that have been spoken,

Resonates a wider smile

on our lips.

Shadows begin to soften, and

little by little it has gone.

Looking up,
the sky in orange lit

hides the sun.

Fogs and cold blows

shivers the body

There the hut stands

inviting us to come.

On its porch, a look at the sky

The sun peeks through

the orange clouds.

Amazed by the colors it brought

to the sky

And how it leaves a gentle but

shady marks.

As the sky darkens,
another light came into the sky.

Lying inside, the moon gives

a bright shine.

It creates the mood to fill

the hollow emptiness

It brings the soul to embrace

the forlorn beauty.

Little by little the soul in us escapes its reality.

Putting into trance every bit of the body.

Touching the complexity of the untold,

Breathe every desire for stories to unfold.

Noble Distance

Noble and honorable

A name one should stand for.

Be the man of perfection,

In the midst of chaos.

Let them know what you are.

Now that you have come into existence,

Amor, je t'aime, I love you..

Beautiful life as how one describes,

I wonder if that heart seriously set,

Love as what had been professed.

No distance should have broken into it,

The text is what we've got for us to be near,

But busyness might take its toll on us.

I've wondered if I crossed there in your mind.

Let the love bloom as far as it goes...

When a Man Says..

📷*image credit @wikihow.com

When a man says, he loves you

and can make it appear that he truly does...

Count it most on how he shows it

Giving assurance not by his words but by his actions.

When a man says, he loves you

but do things that could hurt you...

He might have other plans to do without you.

What counts now is the unstableness of his mind

Making you to love him and yet dumping you in the end.

When a man says, he loves you

and keeps his promises to you...

Give him a chance but be aware of what might have to come.

What cost it would be to see the man behind his mask

For if he repeated the same play, it's time to turn away.

When a man says, he still loves you...

Hide your face and move on...

'Coz when you were still together,

He should have done his best.

Cry it then, pour it out...

If that is the best thing to stride on...

Breath anew to smile and pout...

Be beautiful and alive.

Storm

📷*image credit to hdwallpapers.cat

Rainy season's here,
sickness all over,

The storm lurks within me
in real sadness.

Typhoon, flashing floods
goes through the banks.

And I thought you came
to ease my stress.

The weather seems
joining me herein,

Through the loneliness
you have caused me.

'My Empress',
as you are calling me,

You've asked me
to claim you as my own,

You have even made me
as your own.

Your words and your face
lingers all day,

Your love seems to stay
and never ends.

Sweet words
that came out of your lips,

Where is it
and all your promises?

You even said
never to hurt me,

But what you did
paralyze my soul.

If I Could ...

📷*image credit to insuredcarver

Though the clock can turn its hand back and again,
yet the moment that passed stay as memories.
Though distance can be traveled through the sky,
the time it requires might not hold you for a second.
Though gravity made us fall into a deep abyss,
the space occupied would be filled with empty matters
Though hands can hold one's dear,
the hearts that speak matters most.

If I could turn back the ticking of the clock,
I would say things your heart wants to hear.
If I could bind the time and distance of the earth,
I would take hold of your hand not to let go.
If I could fly high defying space and gravity,
I would cover you with my arms caressing you gently.
If I could hold your hearts to my hands,
I would say "I love you" for the rest of my life.

Know My Heart By Heart

📷image credit to the movie, Mortal Instruments

God has gifted me...

Sweet smile...

Sparkling eyes,

Wit and generosity.

Looks fragile...

yet unbreakable and it shines.

Know me by heart

and lifts me out of time.

These eyes can see,

what others can be.

Mesmerize in the beauty of nature

what others adamantly ignore.

Capturing this colorful band

by my eyes or my hands.

Amaze by the letters on pages,

what others find colorless.

Relishing the words

as a traveled man in thoughts.

Hark to the rhythm of the street

Voice to chant the melodies

Sway to the beat of time

Know my heart,

and lift me out of time.

Light

When I have come into the light

that I haven't known to notice...

When I have gained my sight,

that was the time save for genesis.

Lights started as it illuminates the room.

Day after day, a tree grows so leafy and tall.

Every single day, seeing its flowers bloom,

Yet strong winds, wanted to bring its fall.

In the passing of years, one by one its leaf kisses the ground.

The grandeur of its living follows the color of rust.

Gradually, the shadow of its dance

lost its grace.

The light gets dim for not to see the weakening rest.

Until the Master takes out the light...

I should have followed the light

that I would see.

Light He has given to follow His realm.

Remembering Earth

Its green pastures, our bountiful harvest...

Its detailed landscape, our breathtaking view
Its blue waters, our refreshing crystals...
Its fresh monsoon wind, our vigorous life...
Its clear blue sky, our hopefulness abounds.

Where is thy golden age? Poisons stink everywhere...
Where is thy glorious past ? A sore blinded our eyes...
Where are thy shining glass - broken pieces we no longer admire...
Where are thy blooming fragrance - a death given to our children...
Where is thy infinite light - darkness looming over our lives...

What shall we do... the trees no longer bear fruits...
What shall we do... destruction blinded our eyes...
What shall we do... the thirst can no longer be quenched...
What shall we do... the air suffocates the life it brings...
What shall we do... our home became history for the unknown.

D e s i r e e

The name of the one desired,

A heart that of a sweet child.

A mind of a simple lass,

A dreamer of her own truss.

With her extravagant smile,

To welcome you from a mile

A refreshing scene to see,

Jolly companion to be.

Trials and sufferings abound,

Her faith had made it all bound.

All of it she would lose sight,

But never her friends all night.

~~~oOo~~~

The moment I lay my eyes on you,

the face of a sad angel,

Thinking out loud but never said anything.

"This girl looks like my daughter," so I thought...

I have noticed, have asked, and found...

yes, it's true...

The reason for those sad eyes...

yet, talking to you...

I could see...

I have seen the beauty of your heart,

the kindness of your soul...

'till it uncovers the refreshing smile,

and it never left my memory...

until we meet and see each other again.

From then on, you've been like a daughter to me.

Farewell

If you will see the sun coming from the east,

remember me.

If you see the sunset in the dusk sky,

try to whisper my name.

If you see a butterfly flying on its colorful wings,

follow it and rejoice for the happiness it brings.

If you see the sunflower in the meadow,

remember my face who walks with you in the willow.

... I love you till the morning after,

... love to see and hear your laughter.

... I cry when I remember the past,

... I die when you breathe your last.
