Faulty Conceptions

Faulty Conceptions


What have I done?
What SHOULD have I done?

Those looks of dissonance
I can’t bear!
Those moan of despair,
I can’t hear!

Am I at fault?
I hope not.
I wish naught.

If the sky came down,
If fate turned around,
If luck turned bad,
And that was all that I had

Am I still at fault?
I hope not.

Want to : But can't too !

Want to : But can't too!

Heard you,
Saw you,
If only I could tell you –
How much I loved you…


The raindrops, waves and puddles
That saw us,
Are now in nowhere
In the air.


Moments so still,
Hours long – so short
All those times in which so lonely,
I yearned for you only.


Met you,
Liked you,
If only I could tell you –
How much I loved you…


Love is not the heart of life;
It’s only a part of life.
So they say.
May they say.


For that quote’s sake;
We have to depart.
We had to depart.
With a broken heart.


The hand that held,
A heart that cared,
All are lost :
But nothing said


Found you,
Lost you,
If only I could tell you –
How much I loved you…

Clouds

Clouds

Lazing around,

Sitting on the bound;

Lying on the bed,

I simply stared.


The idiot box did no good;

I simply stood,

Mood no good

Simply brood.


The windows and doors so opened;

The bright light not darkened.


Laughing by my side,

Mommy passes by -

The dragon sneers and moves by.


Now I see Ms. Puffy :

Huffy Duffy

My baby li’l sis, you cuffy cuffy?


Speak, speak Mr. Elephant

You are not an infant

How do you just sail through?


One passes by

And the other sweeps by

Shape differ

From one another.


I lie,

The clouds pass by,

Leaves me in wonder

As I stare in azure

Who creates these?

Clouds at peace,

Sky at ease,

Is it the fizz?


Dancing to the tunes,

No music to hear

The tribal passes by

Oh dear oh dear!


Makes me wonder

What a wonder

A Second world,

Good God kept in between!

‘Despair’ is the word !

‘Despair’ is the word !


Lived like a bird,

albeit in a cage

With moments of happiness -

Smiles, frowns and grins.


But now just a gloom prevails;

Nothing but loneliness dwells.

I give myself some company.

How will anyone else hear a symphony?!

I have wings :

Now with strings attached.


I am on a donkey’s back now,

(Hope he carries me!)

But won’t be sorry;

If he throws my body

‘Coz hopelessness

Has now surfaced.


The crimpled tweak

No more a steak

I owe no one nothing

But will have to,

Someone, something

After my death,


(Hope he takes me soon)

Love you Lord!

I’ve learnt to lie...

I’ve learnt to lie


Hands cuffed,

A muffled cry,

Lashes fly,

I’ve learnt to cry

And lie…


A difficult task,

A face to mask,

My eyes are dry,

I’ve learnt to cry

And lie…


A smiling face

For the spirits around,

No fear in the I

I’ve learnt to cry

And lie…


Thorns so many,

Roses so roses.

Oozing RED,

I’ve learnt to cry

And lie…


People smile,

Trample upon;

And smile back.

Others have learnt to cheat

And lie…


But I still cry

And I still lie…

IL- PIL

IL- PIL


Am I at ‘il’

Dad says; “at your will”


Life’s twists and turns

Lifelong burns.


Swear the leveller, I wish to die

Of the creator; I don’t buy.


I wish to fly, I wish to soar

But mom says – “no more no more”


I wanted to leap high

But brother told me ‘bye’


Am I at ‘il’, I ask

Mom says; “you will !”


Am I at ‘il’

Bro says; “who will?”


Am I at ‘il’

I am A PIL

The Tip

Hold me falling
Help me falling


No I don’t wish to live nomore
Nomore for my ailing father!
Nomore for my ailing mother?
Nomore Nomore


Hold me
Hold me falling
Help me

The heights are far
The deeps so wide
I wish to live and I wish to die
And live again


Hold me falling
Help me falling


The symphony of knell
The euphony of death
My hand will not hold for long
Oh! I see the crocs below
Ages not fed
Oh no! The guards!
The devils and the sea


Me falling Me falling
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Did I vanish in between?
