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…

The light in us all

 I'm an inexperienced artist with too much paint on my hands,

I'm a new fisherman letting go of all the big catches.

Yet I try to paint,

Yet I try to fish;

Like a cupid without arrows

Throwing his bow instead,

Like a fish in the gull's mouth

Hoping to see water again.

The canvas looks prettier without me painting on it,

The fishermen catch more without me on the team.

Yet I try to paint,

Yet I try to fish.

I painted what seemed like a splash of random colours

And threw it into the bin.

They found it from the bin and called it abstract art.

I used a net instead of a rod

And they made fun of me.

But some of them used it

And called me a genius.

I smiled

And walked to my room and laughed

As hard as I could.

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.

Blue windows

  Blue windows open on yellow walls Like eyes which couldn’t sleep Due to the stench of the gutters, The loud clubs, The streetlights, The constant tickling of wet brown leaves From the wild trees That struggle to show That they are still alive. Blue windows open on yellow walls Like eyes that see and show At the same time This state of the world Where everyone has enough; Just enough wine to dilute a sorrow, Just enough cigars to burn a leach off of one’s heart, Just enough pills to put one into a trance Which one may Or may not awake from… More blue windows open on yellow walls Like eyes that couldn’t sleep…
