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…

Colourful Awe


 I watch rain roll down the cafe window,

Mixing it with the purple neon

And the lights of cars dashing by...

Making it a colourful pallet

Used to the extreme

By an eccentric artist

To get out all colours and all shades

For his work.

The pallet is here..

The painting is missing.

But I look around and soon find it

There itself.

The colours fall in

And flow on the walls and the ceiling...

And we...

Our hands and our faces...

All nauseating with colour.

It evokes the same awe

Of looking at an aquarium as a child...

Moved to awe at a giant shark...

So might,

Yet so quietly going about.

I watch rain roll down the cafe window,

Mixing it with the purple neon

And the lights of cars dashing by...

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…
