Needle pierces skin
Blood dries black on broken heart
The mark remains there etched

Needle pierces skin

if there was a word
that described
who I am
it would arise
from the abyss
that I am
the unheard shout
that, what will echo
is the one, I am
the gross
and the shadow
the light, I am
whispering wind
the cool breeze
the fragrance, I am
in the world
I have become dirty
otherwise, pure I am
A word that means
a word that meant
for you, I am
unspoken
unthought of
that’s the word, I am

I have left the shore
and the next one
I can’t yet see
In the meagre boat
With my two oars
I battle the sea
The shimmering moon
The bobbing waves
make me numb
The salty wind
The gentle rocking stillness
I fear, make me succumb
Through the half closed eye
And the dreamy mind
I see gold, transforming the crimson
Victorious sun rises
And there comes the dawn
There I know, I must follow the sun
I row the boat
In resolute strokes
It propels out, towards ahead
I am moving
Like the wind
I am alive, yet not dead
Where the sky dips to the sea
I will reach
my destination
There in the blinding light
In grassy meadows across the beach
I will find my morning sun

When
have I
found myself
to lose
me?
Which me
would I find
there
where
I find
myself?
and when I
find
myself
would there be
joy?
or
in losing
myself
would there be
the
greatest
joy?
Where is your joy?
In finding or Losing?

New place
new beginnings
a blank new slate
the sun is late
it’s morning not yet
but I am wide awake
Its a fresh path
a new trail
the one, I need to blaze
every stumble taught a lesson
every fall a chisel stroke
this sculpture is being made
the future is blurred
but in my mind it’s clear
it’s for me to create

The right step first
or should it be the left
which one would be right?
which place I am headed
hope that’s right
because
that’s all that matters
if the destination
is noble
the steps will be auspicious
rest
is
superstitious

Saw a ghost
Who had long hands
I wondered what use were they
What would it touch
It would seep through the walls
Glide through the doors
Melt through all
Without a worry as such
But with such long hands
It felt awkward
With them dangling
With no way to feel or touch
It was happy one
But the long hands
Scared a few a little
And some a very much
Ghost with long hands
Floated and flew
Dragging his long hands
With a little bit of grudge

If I were to shop
on a spree
Where would I go
and what would it be?
would I search for things
on sale or those for free
or in the wonderful things
I feel, hear and see
In the blue skies
where I can fly free
In the happy swings
on the old shady tree
A puff of smoke
A sip of coffee
a drink of liking
or a cup of lazy tea
In the salty splash
of the mighty sea
Or in the warm sun
in the smile of glee
All these I know
will make me merry
but these would perish
and abandon me in a hurry
But in your arms I know
I will find true happiness I need
in those warm hugs
of you and me
And there in the prayers
as I pray on my knees
I would find peace
in the grace of thee

Tasty cake is baked
Everyone adds a flavour
The eldest one serves

Learnt
the value of relationship
the power of a hug
the worth of a moment
the joy of giving
the happiness in small things
the ignorance
the knowing
and that
yet
nothing is learnt
