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 pain we all go through

 Pull this out of the fire

With bear hands,

And let it roll down your arms

Gently like honey drops.

Pull this out of the fire,

But don’t wait for the pain to go away.

It never will,

It never has for anyone.

In this pain,

Try to look into a Rorschach ink blot.

In this pain,

Try to interpret what it means.

You'll get nothing.

The eyes see the pain,

The ears hear the pain,

The skin feels the pain.

Pain unites the senses.

It is a language

All senses understand.

It is a language

That makes you forget yours,

Wipes your mind clean.

The Rorschach

Will mean nothing to you.

You see only pain.

And everyone judges you when you’re in pain

Without knowing that you are drowning,

That you're being consumed into your own bog.

Maybe they should remove the Rorschach

And lend a hand.

Maybe they should keep quiet

And help.

Can't death come quick?

 A flower fell off a bouquet, And someone stepped on it. And they all went about with their business. But I can’t help but stare at it; The act of hastening death. Everyone went about their business. But I can’t help but stare at it; The dewless petals, The red colour blackening with the creeping shadow of death, The stalk separated from the head Like with a guillotine. It might have been plucked from it's family, From the other flowers. But it's okay. They'll die as well. It's just that this flower will die faster. But in this world where everything happens in a rush, Can’t death do the same?

Footprints

 Is the beach devoid of footprints Or are there so many that they bury each other. Either way, it's the same. There is no path for anyone to follow. And no one can make a new path that lasts, Because one buries the other. Then some people try to surf; At least, Those lines in the water will last longer. Is the beach devoid of footprints Or are there so many that they bury each other. Either way, No one goes anywhere while being noticed.

This morning

The yellow light squeezes between buildings Like a gentle beast, Tickling the windows like petals on water. The yellow light squeezes between buildings And the noise wakes me up. I open the window; A yellow finger patting my head, Making me giggle like a child. There is smoke, There is noise, There are the cranes rotating about the horizon. But there is you as well, Yellow beast… There is you as well, Mighty beast. There is smoke there is noise, There is the smell of coal and tar. But there is you as well, Yellow beast… There is you as well, Mighty beast. And that’s all I need…
