Loud Rain

The rain is loud now, As if a giant feet arises from the clouds To step on the river under the bridge of my heart And disturb it in such a way That the sails of ships bend, And the water touches the bridge from below, Tickling it to sorrow… The rain is loud now, But actually, it has always been like this. You were there once, And I never felt it. But now, All there is Is this sorrow That tickles me from inside, As if it wants me to laugh, Yet doesn’t let me At the same time…

A poem to make you smile

 The world isn’t a happy place,

But neither is it sad.

Life throws apples at us;

We can run,

Get hit,

Or catch them to take a bite.

There is no love or hate;

There are just the apples

And the heavy stones.

There is no love or hate;

There is only what we do

With what comes our way.

And what comes our way

Has no purpose;

It's aim isn’t you.

It hits the sunlight,

The butterflies,

Silent heroes

And loud fools.

It hits what stands in the way.

The world isn’t a happy place,

But neither is it sad.

The wind that does not rest keeps the child's kite dancing;

The boy smiles and the wind smiles back.

The sun that burns away makes the world smile,

And the sun smiles back.

There is a blur in sadness;

A character in the hieroglyphics we cannot understand.

There is a blur in sadness

That makes one understand oneself.

And when one understands oneself long enough,

One laughs at life.

And the laughter makes us forget about the wounds,

The scars,

The stones coming our way.

And we laugh at life until the stones kill us

Without we knowing it.

And as Bukowski says,

“Death will tremble to take us.”

Enlightenment

 One day coldplay came on radio And lifted my roof. I could see the sky And faces I wanted to forget And flowers I could not smell in the clouds; Flashing lights, Gunshots, Dances with some woman I’very never met. Oh Coldplay! Oh Tchaikovsky! How do you know The pain of one man out of the hundreds of thousands. How do you know what I’d forgotten. How can you care more than all I’ve met. You have more life than most people Because you have a soul. And a soul in man is rarer than the scriptures say. And a soul in man is dead if it still exists anywhere. Oh Coldplay! Oh Tchaikovsky! How do you know The pain of one man out of the hundreds of thousands. One day coldplay came on radio And lifted my roof. But then it fell on my chest And crushed me to a pillow of tears.

The days

 The days float quietly Like a bubble on a cup of coffee, Going round and round With the entire ceiling reflected on in; A ceiling that’s cracked And lacking paint here and there As if covered by blisters That never seem to heal… Blisters inflicted By age and moss, That expand… With the paint falling off But by bit. One day a scratch of paint will fall into the cup And pop the bubble, Making the tea forget All that it saw of the ceiling… Making the tea forget That it itself exists…
