GIRL IN THE STARS

Soothing moonless darkness! 

Warm embracing breeze!

The night is happy

The stars are bright!  

Softly and gently

My silent heart sways!

Tell me! Oh! Little girl in the stars!

Why does my heart sway?

END OF THE UNIVERSE

A Surreal dream!  

A hallucination?

Darkness all round

Wobbly Warmth within!   

You and I

Arms in arms!  

No words! No stars!

No time! No thought!

Just Love, happiness and bliss!

Oh!  Is this the End of the Universe?  

CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT

Swinging out to the stars

Reaching down to our hearts

Playing together!

Together in the darkness of this night!  

With clapping hands

And running feet

Singing to the breeze!

As time stands still

And happiness swells

Oh! We are the children of the night! 

SUMMER STREAM

The crimson summer is scorching 

Scorching as it  overpowers life 

parched and lifeless 

The roasted  soil is dry and  barren 

Flowing on its sandy death bed 

The little blue stream still trickles on 

Another day it may last 

Another night may be 

Stars and life it sees today 

Happiness and bliss in the now 

But even as the sorrow of the summer creeps in 

And the flaming sun rises tomorrow 

Oh! Will the sand and pebbles run dry ? 

MIND TRAIN

The greasy engine chugs on 

The empty carriages follow 

Mountains and valleys 

Plains and towns

All come and go 

Level crossings hold back 

Bridges hold up

Dark Tunnels let it  all pass 

Sitting alone by the  frosted window 

As the train of thought speeds on 

A lonesome heart wonders 

Whither is my destination ? 

FACE OF LOVE

Tear down the curtains

Put away your mask

Bear your naked feelings

Feel the broken heart!

The heretic says!

Oh! Foolish mind!

This is the face of love!

PRISON OF LOVE

My throat is choked!

My brain is numb!

Yet my heart sings a thousand tunes!

The heretic says!

From this prison of love

Can anyone break free? 

A MAN THEN

A  man then ! 

Loving and living!

Now  left cold and dead !

The heretic  says! 

when is it going to be me ?

SPIRALING ASHES

Passion leaves no ashes

Hatred leaves a corpse

In this lonesome journey

Spiraling down to the grave

The heretic says!

Oh foolish mind!

Love is all that matters!

FEARLESS

Fearless; I walk

Walk untrodden paths

Hopeless; I strive

Strive on with diligence

Aimless; I proceed

Proceed towards empty pointlessness

Yet in the shadows of the setting sun

I smile on in silence!
