Goodbye
When I die,
read my poetry in silence
and say goodbye.

FEAR AND PASTS
Like a fierce rage chopping off the cliff
And a free fall bashing through the dust
Like the chirping birds in their nests above
And sweeping ocean waves running towards you
Can you breath at all amidst disgust, oops!
In the igloo of ghosts
In the lair of witches
I hope you find the riches of the cave
Before your weak soul bursts into the grave! ..your fear'
Then you know it's your burden to bear
I know it's tough to think
But it's easier for feelings to shrink
Love is a conundrum that alters the philosophy of peace
You bear the pain and the pain and the pain
You think you're wrong but it is that you're wronged!
Enjoy the pain as you wriggle through the tunnel
For its not death that you think of it
It is death, as you're stuck in your own past
Rain upon rain, moments upon moments
Then you realize the true peace in the channel.

SCROLL FROM METHUSELAH
My days slams my face like the rain on trees,
I wish I can hold it tight in my fist,
And keep it in a brown jar;
I wish I can roll away from the sunrays:
And wriggle into the deepest hole in a cave
My life chokes the breath of my inner self,
They think I'm living ,
I know I'm leaving'
Leaving the boat for the cold night,
Dreaming of possibilities and the unthinkable.
Last decade,I tasted the peels of the oceans,
And gnashed my teeth on the air,
I got lost in front of me,
And tried calling myself home,
I shot my arrows and broke the cloud!
My mind gave up on how to birth thoughts
And paved way for nothing that interests my bones
I wept in the deserts of sorrows
And ran into the arms of fate
I didnt give up in the dark!
For the birds can hear my cry...

black child
they have questions about
why and how
a quest for learning
when a school education
isn't always
what it's supposed to be
nor what it needs to be
for little brown boys and girls
there's so much information
left to chance
leaving them
guessing and wondering
about the ancestors
teachers have to
play catch up
fill in the gaps
the holes
to not only ensure
that they learn the basics
reading, writing
and common sense
but also
the add ons
like why we were more
than slaves
and why they can still be
whatever they want
just like the 60s
I'm black and I'm proud
and why
they must apply themselves
sometimes more than
little Johnny or Jane
because that's just
how it is
facts.

High walls
Heart like a secret garden
Fragile like a bubble,
Built high walls around it.
Great trepidation to be forgotten remains,
In a corner where love resides.

Curse of Atlas (Part 4)
No more this burden on my shoulders lay
Let worlds collide as I lay ichor to waste
Hero or God, hellhounds or sea nymphs
Any soul that dares Atlas' might shall sink
Skies turns ochre as the Gods slowly fall
Lands that bleed of every hero's corpse
Let mine fury strike fear in your hearts
A flamboyant Titan fighting his old cause
Appollo, Artemis, Ares and Athena
Sincerely futile attempts to control my pace
They lie at my feet, all blood of my blood
Decimate your beloved and let seas flood
We meet at last, Oh nephew and nemesis!
Thunder claps and lightning bolts in service
Know the might of the all-powerful Titan
His mere presence shall annihilate his victims

नाई की दुकान
सुबह सुबह का वक़्त है प्यारे
हम खड़े समक्ष केशों के द्वारे,
हैं दर्शन को कंघे और कैंची
और फिलिम चल रही बड़े मजे की,
बाल बाल बच कर बालों से
है शय्या जिनकी फ़र्श यहाँ पे,
हम बढ़े बड़े-बड़े कदमों से
और बैठे उधर,
है छीटों का स्पर्श जहाँ पे,
हमारी मूंछें छटने को व्याकुल
और उसके लिए वो जगह है माकूल,
शीशे में दिखते तीन जानवर
जिनका कल्याण करेंगे, ये खड़े मान्यवर
जो खट खट अपना हाथ चलाते
मानो कोई ऑर्केस्ट्रा बजाते
समय बिताने के स्ट्रगल में,
हम देखे ज़रा अपने बगल में
उंगली नाक में डाल के बैठे
नत्थू लाल के मंझले बेटे
बीच बीच में हाथ उठाकर
कोमल बालों को सहलाकर,
देख आईना, दें बत्तीसी
उम्र पकी पर अक्ल कच्ची सी,
बाएँ में उनके धाकड़ कोई
चाँद पे जिनके मक्खी सोई,
बात बात पर घड़ी को तांकें
आँख दिखाकर नाई को डाँटें
बालों की नगरी बड़ी व्यस्त है,
ये रविवार की सुबह मस्त है।

Perfection
They say perfection doesn't exist,
That no matter how much you try
you can never be complete.
But every piece of your imperfections,
Seemed perfect to my eyes;
And nothing else can compete.

Feels like forever
Love is like an ocean.
Its waves meandering through your existence;
Drowning your soul in its unending depths,
With no finish line, no shore in sight.
You've heard of forevers,
Maybe they don't exist in this life.
But the ripples of its ocean forever drench your soul everytime.

Fire and ice
She was like fire and ice.
So completely different yet the same.
You'll fear the cold and crave the burn.
Her warmth, enough to melt your stone cold heart.

Know it all
Your eyes speak like they have witnessed,
Every inch of her tar black soul.
And they read between the lines
of the words unsaid.
They say its white lies;
The way you try to hide the emptiness,
they know.
Those lips painted cherry red mask it all
with a fake smile.
Your eyes speak like they have witnessed,
Witnessed every inch of her tar black soul.

She could made pain look invisible,
With those beautiful eyes and
her heart warming smile.

Obscure
Obscurity kills you on the inside,
Claws at you piece by piece
Taking your thoughts for a ride.

Hope
When the dawn is dark,
you have to wait for sunlight,
to make your world so happy and bright.
Having hope propels us to achieve our unfulfill dreams,
and drives us towards our pursuit.
Sometimes in this chaos of life,
when will feel so down and low,
when depression have already found a place to sit in our heart,
That's the time we can hope for better days,
things may not be find as we want it,
but life will surely glow.
Life is not always the same,
we're just here to blame.
When we try to give up,
the word "hope"will surely come to help us to strive,
till we reach our destination and goals.
Darkness doesn't stay long,
what always happens is destined to happen.
A test of life and patience will surely comes to our way,
but we have to keep playing on the role of hope.
