Possessed

The said hour has arrived,
The full moon shinning bright;
Blazing, scorching the tender earth
With its haunting cold power.

I feel a change within me,
The cold eyes in the light glistening,
The veins carry blood in flames
To a heart uncaressed by emotions.

Am I possessed?

Draining the warmth of my soul,
Trapped in its ice-cold blaze;
My mind never listening to the heart,
The eyes full of revenge and fury.

I feel my strength slowly fading,
My voice crying for help-- unheard;
My mind tormenting my inner-self,
Filled with rage, hatred and malice.

I am possessed!!

Bohemians

We are the Bohemians,
The people of our age;
Breaking all reasons,
Our own law we rage.

We are the Bohemians,
No routine we have;
Waking in the noon,
The morning already past.

We are the Bohemians,
Unfazed by soceity;
Few people we know
To talk of life and piety.

Life, we make our own,
No place to call our home;
Lost, never will we be---
Got ourselves to care and see.

A mark we leave on earth,
To be kept hidden from birth;
The Bohemians we are---
People ahead of our age!

Valleys of Hades

The wind,
Howling in agony;
The valleys,
Deserted, Uninhabited;
Beyond the mountains,
The reign of Darkness.

Forgotten domains---
Curse and Hate collide,
Darkness and Cold meet,
And Truth turning to a Lie!

Sunlight,
Never touches the poisoned ground;
Laugh,
Of the undead never resound;
Beyond the mountains,
The valleys of Hades.

The flame of love
Uncaressed by the cold,
Powers never rise
Grasped by the Hand of Dead!



-------In older Greek myths, Hades is the misty and gloomy abode of the dead, where all mortals go. There is no reward or special punishment in this Hades, akin to the Hebrew sheol. Hades refers both to the ancient Greek underworld, the abode of Hades, and to the god of the dead himself. 'Hades' in Homer referred just to the god of dead!

PAIN

Life is pain---
Addicted
I am to this pain;
Slit the throat,
Watch you groan,
Wreathe in pain!

Stop mourning for the dead,
The living suffers,
You think you are devastated?
Enter me---
You can witness inhuman torment.

Death is pain---
Addicted
I am to this pain;
Mourning the souls of the dead,
Hearing the anguish in their voices,
Feeling the morbidity of their thoughts!

Look into my eyes---
What you see
Is not me,
Its just a dormant stage
Of what I'm expected to be.

Saviour

Banished,
For a crime not committed;
Walking,
In fear of this restrained place;
Feeling,
A darkened force surrounding;
Wandering,
Endlessly in the solitude and pain!

Darkness falls,
Approaching the barren wastelands;
Cries of anguish,
From unknown creatures never seen;
Haunted,
By the strange thoughts and visions;
Lost,
In a world of utter darkness!

Alone,
Praying for a saviour;
Struggling,
At the thought of redeeming;
The people's saviour,
Listening to the voices in the wind;
Pain,
Tormented by the nightmare!

Empty Dreams

Surrounded by my loneliness,
Surrounded by my thoughts,
The lost dreams in my empty eyes,
I submit to my destiny
Before the invisible black mirror.

Blinded by the illusions of life,
The senseless memories seem to be forgotten,
The day and night I feel
Without the twilight setting in;
The dream of eternity I dream!

The thoughts lead me
Through never-entered paths,
Lost in the blind ends they are
I cannot turn back,
I just see bleak pictures of the past.

In this life without light,
My thoughts are controlled
By the bleakness of the past;
The shackles chaining my life
Becoming feeble and weaker.

The feet are too tired to carry me longer,
Tired I feel for my life,
I want to close my eyes to sleep---
Sleep till eternity
And forget my empty dreams!!

Your Own God

Torturing Humans
For their Gods,
Crushing their wills
For their Gods,
Nailed bodies on the cross
For their Gods,
Pyres burning
For their Gods.

War, Death and Sorrow
Doesn't bring the world a nice 'morrow;
Couldn't He do anything against it,
The adored God, The Imperial Being!

Children sacrificed by mothers
For their Gods,
Women burnt alive
For their Gods,
Masses dying in pain
For their Gods,
The burning fire of their sins
For their Gods.
Their God exist only in beliefs,
Their souls subdued by lies they believe,
Liberate the thoughts, Possess the courage,
Believe your own power, Believe YOUR OWN GOD!!

Silent Message

Late at night
Everybody's asleep,
I try to close my eyes,
I try to get some sleep.

Looking outside through the window
I see the solitary light,
The light that glows,
The moon that shines so bright.

Thinking of the distance
That separates us,
The moon seems to say---
"I'm as close to her as to you!"

With no one knowing my fate,
With no one bothering even to hate,
I pass a silent message
To the person who let me forget them all!!


---- well don't ask me the person whom it is supposed to be written....

A Night!!

Taking a drag in...
Pushing a puff out...
Wonder how it feels...
To go out loud and shout....

Scream out your name...
Tell you my pain...
Brutal memoir of nothingness...
Hollow insides of.............................................

Carve your name on a rock,
Unable to be erased by the rain;
Write your name on the sand,
Just to wash away the pain.

The shout goes on to faint,
Your picture I paint,
Not on those material canvases,
But a canvas unimaginable!!

Sacrifice

Tied at the altar,
Her pure soul
Will soon be free,
Her dear life
Will soon cease.

The dagger,
Ready to split her head;
The corpse,
Ready to be fed;
Tied body, fulfilling the rite.

She's bleeding fast,
Floating in a pool of blood,
Her skull split open.
This will suffice
The petty sacrifice.

The cheeks filled with tears,
The brows filled with sweat,
Time has come for her---
Living away from hate,
Death, her eternal fate!!
