Nothing

Loneliness is a state of mind..
It is the deep,dark abyss drilled
Into the very core of your existence.
Darkness here is beyond definition..
Solid..like a thick dark blanket..
Suffocating you..
Silence is overbearing,deafening
Where the sound of your breathing
Seems obscenely loud..

I'm falling in this sinister cavity..
I scream..knowing well there's no one to hear
Yet i scream,but the deafening silence prevails
I desperately struggle to hear the resonance of my cry
Any sound,any sign,any proof of my existence.
But i hear nothing,i see nothing..
Just the infinite silence..the drowning darkness.
I am tired,I stop struggling..submit myself

I find myself floating,suspended in nothingness
My eyes are open or shut,i don't know,it doesn't matter
My mind is numb,hollow,serene..
Now I seek nothing,demand nothing
No memories,no emotions
no expectations,no liabilities..
I am floating in nothingness
And now i feel nothing..

The Fate of Mankind

The first rays of sunlight strike the horizon,
Amidst the haunting shadows of the night..
A golden glimpse of hope.
The still waters burn fiery red,

The sky flooded with a crimson shade,
Creatures of the day..
Some timid, conscious oftheir very existence,
Some vicious birds of prey.
Slowly they venture forth,
To be bathed by the morning sun,
With their dreams,their plans,
To enjoy again their freedom run.

The symphony of the wild rings,
Nature the greatest composer.
The twitter of birds, the bark of a dear,
The impatient sounds of the spring so clear
.But suddenly the sound of gunshot
Pierces through the melody,shattering the harmony,
the broken pieces lay at the gunman’s feet.

The smoke fades but the stench of violence prevails
And instead of music, a desperate struggle is heard
With fluttering wings and pleading eyes
A dove struggles to live…
A struggle for humanity, for peace,

But the dove will not live..
Cause the gunman is eager for his prize,
The lifeless body of the beautiful dove.
And that’s what we will get..
A lifeless body, a mere shell
Devoid of love,devoid of peace.
A world where souls are chained for eternity..
Here lies the grim fate of our humanity.

Time

Time slips through my fingers,
Like the impatient sand.
The harder i try to hold on
The quicker it leaves my hand.

Like slaves we toil..hoping to reach some end
But time is such a cruel,devious friend...
It holds our dreams,our wishes before us
Like a carrot before a mule..

And laughs as it sees us running
Towards it like a fool.
Its all a mirage..snickering as it waits
To disappear at our slightest touch,
And laugh at our fate!

But like fools we still choose to run
Towards that which we cannot see..
Still pretending,still trying to be that
Which we know we cannot be!

The Light

The light of my life slowly shrinking away,
Marking the end of the long hard day.
The leaden darkness of this wintry night,
Punctuated by the lonely light.

Imprisoned I am within myself,
No one to call, no one to help.
Just a lone candle standing smart
My friend, my savior, my confidante.

Lower and lower the candle blinks,
As the weight of my sorrow upon it sinks.
Melting tears roll down, its thinning frame,
Looking up at me and sees the same.

Just as I thought, ''It is here I end"
One last message gives my parting friend.
Nearing its end, it gives a warming glow,
Its warmth, through my senses, began to flow.

As my friend down it its smoky grave,
Unlike all others,a hope it gave.
It told me that darkness was just the absence of light
That the darkness within me had made me hide,
It told me it was okay to cry,
But leave a glow before you die.

Phoenix

Surrounded by the flames of death,

Scorching my tender skin.

People enjoy the fire's warmth,

While i burn from within.

After a while,the fire is out

While i lay in my ashes.

My existence shrouded in doubt,

Past memories come in flashes.

Feeling that all is lost

I hope for nothing more.

Slowly engulfed in a sea of frost,

Freezing me to the core.

But all a sudden a bright warm glow,

Awakens in my frosty core.

Life,through my senses flow,

Resurrecting me from death once more.

For I'm the phoenix as I'm meant to be,

Giving hope to one and all

Enduring flames and rising from ashes

As u see..

A phoenix cannot fall!
