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…

Going with the flow

 Why do we lock our souls

And say the world is against us?

Why do we prick our hearts

And demand the world to heal it?

We have obeyed society

Long enough.

We have done ‘what's right'

Long enough.

We should be what we are.

They try to paint coins gold 

And increase their value,

They try to shoot blindfolded,

And end up shooting an innocent bird,

Trembling as the spirit leaves it.

They have ‘given' us enough;

Now we should give back.

They have shot us enough;

Now we shouldn’t come down to the trees.

The light doesn’t find us,

The darkness doesn’t know us,

And the ocean doesn’t remember us

Even if we drown in it.

“Then why live?” They ask.

And the question pricks our heart.

We live for the world,

And have forgotten to live for ourselves.

We live for the world,

And stick to groups and social norms

And complain about the broken cup that never fills up.

It is painful

That we live for the world too much.

It is painful

That we live for

Our nation, presidents, our politicians, our parents, our gods

Too much.

We have forgotten to live for ourselves.

But we haven’t forgotten to complain.

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…
