On a lonely traffic-lit sidewalk
Sitting under the shadowed grass
The ghosts of hidden past
Conceal themselves
I walk near closer
And they pounce on me
Like regrets!!!!

-

When dreams shall be dismissed by realistic accountability
The clouded perceptions of love legacy
Will move under the day illumination
Together walking on different roads of contemplation
We will encounter a distant love story....

-

The bliss of the moon
Encounters a deadly testimony
Miles apart a silent tale
Cannot serve a purpose
Anymore

-

भिन्न होता सागर
क्षितिज के प्रांगण में भूमिकाएँ बुनता है
हिलोर वे विशिष्ट चुनता है
एक-दूसरे में कब मिलती हैं वे धाराएं
साक्ष न शून्य पाता है

कितनी क्षति है वियोग में
जहां कारवां तरंगों का न पाता गंतव्य है
पीछे मुड़ स्वयं को भ्रमाता
आशाएँ अंकुरित कराता है

वेदना में खो गया
तरंगो का लड़कपन
पराजित हुआ क्षणिक धैर्य
रात्रि ने किया शीतल
 
नैत्र उठे तब
चंद्रमा की गोलाई मापी
तब से
देख रहा समुद्र
ज्वार भाटा की ओर..............

Whether I go upwards with swirling time

Whether I go down with a broken leaf

Whether I am nurtured by the most primitive stars

Whether I am abandoned by the bonfire

Whether I stand on a cliff

Whether I sit on a sumptuous bed

I know there is a beginning

I know there is a never ending me

And thats only within me

-

The hills see the plains laughing

Lost in the humour of its own landscape

Crowded parts have life utmost

Blinking shadows carry rhythm sheepishly.

Winds blowing to the hills aloof

Miss the sunny warmth

Deserted as it may seem

Such is the scenario at the top.

Peaks are the guides of antiquity

Promising to themselves muted strength

Have their own dryness of regret

Of that not witnessed but only felt.

-

Black hearts
Smothered veins
Oh! beauty exasperated
Dews break off
With returning silhouette
Seizing breath
Vanishing are you
On a long road that lay ahead
Maple leaves holding onto your footsteps
The darkest hours
Howling with each cloud passing
Fairer than luscious frost
Gripped my very life

-

Rose petals hold the gaze
Plagiarising the mirth instinct
I open my heart before the beauty fades
Of love not so renowned
Subtly melt
Into the body
Unto the soul

I caress my heart before the aroma fades
Yet the taste of mystique I bear
On my lips
Certainly untouched by the kiss of depthness
For where there is not a hearth
For deep fire
There love shall never stay............

-

Blebs enclose an ambivalent terra firma
Unaware of its own embellished olive green
A terminating twig rests close by, devoid of solicitude
In the twinkling of an eye will withdraw due to Sun flickered storms
Parched skulls sutured by concordant dooms
Won't rouse to see the eclipsed sky

Why an exhibition of despotism by unremembered blue yonder?
May be the clouds imprison a comeback
For the beads are caught up
Anticipating a miracle downpour
Dispatching the spherical drops onto the barren lands

Then on ardency may caress the caught up spirits
May be in some alternative narrative
Claded with better hues, unchained distinct
Liberation is a portrayal of untold maple leaves
Caught up with thousand flurries of air.
