Renunciation

Suddenly this feeling
Of giving away everything
Is this how it felt
Before kings left their house and went

Nirvana doesn't come just from renunciation
You have to really let go of all your emotion
Live in the world, in the present
But don't be indifferent

To the people around you, everyone is hurt
They are all trying to make it through, with their sweat and dirt
Learn to accept the differences
For only then will there be short distances

Between you and me
Only then will there be equality

Mind and thoughts

Contaminated thoughts adulterated minds
Difficult breaths while living in the dark
Black memories , charcoaled soul

Living with thoughts that sound irrational
The complexity in being simple

Feeling as if the glass is full
Without the shades life is so dull

I know not where I came from
I know not where I would go to
Being faceless, formless, nameless
There is nothing left to undress

Here I shall remain
and here I shall regain
the best of me and the worst
For everything fades to dust

Lovers

A meet after years too long
forgotten the face, the voice, and the love that once was so strong

The eyes meet and a blank stare
In the same room where
They had held each other dear
He holds her hand and let it go
The silence is broken by a hello

They sat by the fire place
Daring to not look at each other
She held her guard, didn't give anything away
A cold smile on her cheek, an emotional delay

He lifts his eyes and looks at her
She stares him back
For a moment they forget where they were
The distance, the time seem to have never gone by
They were back to being the young souls that they were

They leave the room hand in hand
And walk under the twinkling stars
The moon shines on them
While the rivers seem alive

On the way to the hills under the big tree
They kiss each other again
For a flickering moment nothing seem to have changed but then...

He has been away and she has been with someone
They have moved on although in their hearts they still feel as one...

The new night

Don't be scared to sleep
The night won't devour you
It won't take over you

Don't be afraid of the night
It will help you drown
It will rest you down

It's not you but I who's the enemy
But this time I shall move away
Don't worry, I shall tell you not
It will be a silent retreat
With toes tipping backwards
Sideways and forwards
The dawn will soon be here
your melancholy days shall be over

Night

I sleep alone in my room tonight
Driving the nugatory thoughts out of my mind
With dreams playing like a movie
That doesn't seem to end

Time is in continuum
The past, present and the future entwined in one

The morning though a new day
Brings endless memories of days past
Words seem ill at ease to describe what echoed in eternity but never seemed to last

The New Year

The new year sets in...


The clock strikes 12
24 hours throughout the world and

for that particular day...
For that particular second
for that particular moment...

People come to life
Winter seems alive
Quiet whispers
Sing in the night

None is left behind
No discriminations are made
Everyone is ushered into the new place
Everyone is given their space

Resolutions are made
Kisses are shared
Love is renewed
With fireworks over their head

Today is invited...
