Saudade

In a crowded human enclave, Feeling emptiness all around, Many a discourse and rantings The mind wanders elsewhere; The soul floats in abeyance Missing me- within myself Breathless, I gasp for life As I wait, lifeless, for resurgence With each passing moment The craving intensifies, The agony multiplies Bleeding drop by drop, constantly No remorse, […]

Corona

I see around me An emptiness and eerie silence Like the walk of the dead. The only sound I can hear Is my heart beating and thumping The morbid landscape Smells of evil Oh, so scary- This invisible enemy, Elusive yet pitiless.. Baffled, in agony I swing my sword around Not knowing where […]

Nudging and trudging through the valley of darkness The eerie silence, scaling up rapidly- deafeningly loud No remorse, nor respite, not a soul to console Enveloped by ghostly shadows of fear and falsehood Meandering in the labyrinth in the state of confusion Internal conflicts profoundly aggravating the sorrow The battles between right and wrong, no […]

Forever is a myth! Seasons change, so do people Today it’s bone chilling cold Tomorrow burning hot Today you are good Tomorrow someone is better Forever- is your heart, beating inside you The memories engraved for life The soothing nostalgia at times When a cord of a happy note syncs A tickle rousing profuse bleeding […]

Alchemist

Your expressions mesmerize me Calming my soul, chaining me to you That passion with the gentleness of love Those sparkly fiery eyes Glittering with a burning desire With the flickering lights Blowing the flames on a cold windy night, Raising and fluctuating, shadows dancing in the dark Desires and hopes, collated with peace and bliss […]

Línea de vida

Always looked up to you, you are my shining star Take me by the hand, guide me down every path I may laugh, or the world beneath my feet may slide In all your shining glory- I trust you to take me through every tide On bright sunny days or in the chills of the […]
