A long walk home

Pictures framed in frames
Shadowed in my glassy eyes
Wrinkled faces,I saw
Reflected in a thin glaze

Long forgotten memories
Of childish love,strewn across the room
Unbridled joy of candies
Now only concatenated by rosaries

Sempiternal barrage of hatred
Rolled up on a high moral ground
But it all seemed inherently pointless now
When I lay all beat up and battered

Wrought out of sheer solitude
I remember how we played and fought
And now I try unlearning the inevitable prophecies
Of my own lassitude

With shaky limbs,only bound to fall
As I try standing up on my own
No matter how hard pressed my ignorance
I realize, it was her,who in the first place had helped me walk

Bad fortune

Under the moonlight There you stood Under false pretentions Looking blankly,at my face The slow movements Along the cobbled street I looked in your eyes And was really in love And i cry like some kind of broken toy All the losses,now long gone And i feel like a new born ruler With a golden spoon stuffed in mouth We made a dreamscape Of old songs and words But I did not know How long would it stand I was a loser And you a freebird Caught in an intellectual cage I knew,you would not stay Now the days they pass,like seconds And the paths they never seem to converge All the people now ready to crucify me With bloodlust in their gaze And now i cry like somekind of broken toy Having travelled in some kind of circle And i feel like so far from a paradise In a place i used to call my home

For her

I wish I could be young, Just for a day, I wish I was small And had small fingers i could twirl, In my father's hands. I wish I couldn't walk as fast, As I do nowadays, and I could stop, And see, the wonders and mysteries, Which pass me by every moment. I wish I saw love when I stared into, These million swarming eyes, around me, While all I see these days, Is a reflection of hate, envy and pain I don't want to speak, as words fail me, Like they did, then, and this cruel tongue, Speaks only lies, and no truth, I'd rather cut it off than let it harm anyone. Let me play in sand and mud, Let me eat chalk, let me fall off bicycles, Let me break my tiny bones, and let me lose my teeth, I would still laugh and happily finish my meal. Where is my mother now, I lost her, in my childhood, and I lost my innocence too, I lie in my home, alone and sad, While she dies, and no one cares. If i could be a child again, I would kiss her, And tell her that I loved her, And sit in her lap...

Changes

Dreams of leaving, Lingering echoes of voices All surreal ecstasies wane, Masked by a penchant for healing Our slashed minds,set ablaze deriding the crazy worlds,we left behind Walked through flames ,down to the isle Did we traverse alone, the maze? Eons have now come and gone, Edges have turned to dust, Passing days,slipping,receding to nigh Acrostic mess,what life had become Looking back at the deeds I'd done I only realize, how foolish I had been to have run (For how I had fallen back every time I'd walked There always was a safe home to have, a place I revered)
