Way down...........

I played -day and night
the games which made me win,
I wished- the gift came unasked .

He remained in silence.

I ran around-caught in the youthful pep,
clasped by hidden care,Uncluttered.
I showed -the flaw went unnoticed,
garbed in the grace of light.
I went -along the way that called,
lost the path that questions the odd.

He left the trace between my broken thoughts

A voice whispered,
I denied , the fact walked past.
A desire grew up,
I flirted ,the ethics went lost.
The good came to talk,
I fought , a flare blew up.

He let the storm befall

I feared - the pride froze
to flakes of shame.
I prayed the might i have,
it never came back.
I fell down , shattered
in the pool of tears ....................
Which taught me all the lessons

One day.......

The hollowness is widening around me,
demarcating the webs of relation.
waves of celestial spirits
are now the rays tearing the web.

reverberating memories shimmering
behind the fearful voices within my innerself,
where my languishing heart crave for solace.....

beloved people promise to give refuge
with soft concealed words,
but..... now they throw shadows
that nourishes grief in me.

few said-
i mirror their very being and they do mine,
now they gape into this mirror yelling"there is a stranger in the mirror"
few spoke -
that they strive to heal me,brighten my living.....
but....now they cast away me to an old lamp
where i still breath in the silence of the lamp........
few vowed-
to sow the seeds of togetherness in sharing my sorrows,
now they plough their own land,
to carve their happiness in the seasons of harvest
where my tender heart sobbed in lonliness..........

i was taken away by a maze of words from the ones i cared for......
where my form shattered to nothingness yet remains
chunks of the bitterness in the deep sullen-skies of life.

iam casted away to an exile of darkness..............

~"voices in darkness"

Iam the son of darkness,
you are the sons of disguised brightness.
i build shrines of beautiful nights for you,
you dig graveyards of cavern obscurity for me....
yet you find yourself emerging out of it every morning .......

Darkness is eternity
in which spasm of light is sprinkled,
you glorify me but with envy.
Oh!! children of brightness
look beyond the horizons of your vision.
the enormous unioverse is entrenched in this cold darkness......

I gift you with sweet dreams in the night
to wipe off the chaos of the day,
you reflect eerie smiles in the air
astounded at my tranquility.

I live in peace and silence
when you rustle restlessly through the day
and fade into me at nights.......
Every day of yours is born from me,
but you burn my effigy with candles of light

The wisdom of my race deciphered
the follies in your remorseless crimes,
which flickers with pride that light paces with divines magnitude

Then why does it find darkness everywhere
before it envisages its own destiny?

aeons to pass by,
before the sun merges into space
and earth dooms with cries of mother nature
prepare to die and follow me
whence this immortal did rise

till then i sleep beyond
"every sunrise
and every sunset............."
