Reality

Another one of us has left
Day of reckoning, our end is near
will miss his voice, his deep thought
his soul will be missed, so his heart
scratches, punches, reality bites so hard,
immense grief struck, falling apart
the world will keep moving, show must go
a reminder has come, not long to go

beyond grief, beyond belief

I wrote this to mourn deaths of dozens of innocent children killed in a inhumane attack on a school in Peshawar in December 2014

news reel lost its time
repeating, reminding, binding
us in this tragedy together

they were light in a dark night
they were day, gold in clay
all they wanted was to play

enjoy life, make smiles language of universe
who gave you the right to end their dream
who gave you the right to bend the fabric

and do the sin which even Satan disowns
he hates that we call you evil, as you are far above it
do you breath, is it blood in your food

human fingers in your soup,
when you sleep do you sleep on
skulls of mothers and their unborn children

do you live, is it life what you call
recall every moment when you were young
were you young or abomination appeared randomly

what is consciousness to you
yes mastermind, deathly blind,
merciless monster, why would you kill

and fill, thousand cauldron with sweet children’s blood
thud, thud, thud, thud, that’s sound when each one of
our lights to this universe were broken and bled

bullets you had, they are asking for our forgiveness
but you, I don’t wish you death, I don’t wish you life
I wish that you are presented, to each child’s parent

who look you in the eye, asking which piece of you they take
in memory of their child, and bit by bit we take you apart
examine your brain while you are alive,

torture yes we should torture you just before death
then let you eat your excrement, let you drink your urine
never let you die, each day we play smiling blossoming voices

of our loved ones in front of you and say to you
While you can not see as we took your eyes
while your can not say as we cut your tongue,

but we let your ears alone, hear the laughter you muted
hundreds of lives you refuted, what say you,
just shake your head, denying our dead

the life they could had, and we cry, sky, Earth
Galaxy, stars, God, Satan, Angels, Devils,
Humans, animals, insects, creatures

cry, shed their tears, for ones who have fallen
for insanity of humanity…even all created beings
are questioning your birth on this earth,

divine shaking her head, bemused, questioning
why granted free will…..and I say I don’t want it
I want to be slave, just make this monster go away

let us have our children back, let them play
erase our memories, wash that blood from the clay
remove this worst of the worst days
I beg, wish and pray and try to sleep my way
To abyss…

Peaceful death of a fully burned candle

life candle turned red
wax slowly,
gradually, burned
all air around
Nothing was left
unable to breathe
survival became extinct
at that moment
any distinct possibility
plausible probability
of existence
of life,
of sound
of tears drops
of water dripping
extinguished
a lonely, only
ashen wick
looking for
a chandler to rescue
unable to fathom
gravity, ingrained
impossibility of happening
such instance
sometimes,
more than you know,
futility of resistance if
respected, acknowledged
will help immensely to
die in peace

It’s time

When the time is up
let me see your face
touch your lips
listen to your heart
last breath release
love will increase
soul will not cease
death in absolute peace

Wish you were here

In memory of a loved one
the day you left
whole town wept
last rites don’t apply
as angels just fly
patience, care
Love immense
life after you
made no sense
who will now
calm me down
let me wear
that intellect crown
time has passed
since I have seen
that smile
that laugh
most beautiful heart
ever been
years pass
images degrade
those memories
however
never fade
heaven will have
a great party tonight
as soul of the world
celebrate in style
we on earth are
missing you
on your birthday
kissing you
in milk honey streams
in mad laughter screams
in every moment dreams

Friendly advice on matters of life and death

spent all years
in knowing life
its contradictions
mind bending
hallucinations
love ending
propositions
heart rending
suppositions
heaven sent
dispositions
what is never heard
just understood
is the silence
of death
knocking each door
checking each floor
only calling your name
when it is time
fear is not a crime
just a condition
most sincere advice
Ignore all lies
of living till eternity
if won’t give joy
nature is coy
a short time is better
Do what matters
live, laugh, lead,
help brethren in need
sow a humble seed
of tranquility, ease
when the knock comes
leave in utter peace

Satan is dead

Darkness without death
wailing, abseiling
into a bottomless pit
dry rotten corpse

alive for thousand year
Soul still inside
feel the crawl of insects
slow eating parasites

their teeth gnawing
softened skull
heart has decayed
arteries full of puss

brain cells blackened
death never arrived
whatever has survived
very much the doubtful

hateful, spite thrived
monster, suffers violently
screams silently
no one to hear,

no one to care
no one to cry
just demons and I
waiting for the day

when oppressed have a say
punishment be found
chained and bound
hell I come

immense welcome
by devil himself
a score to settle
how I dare meddle

take centre stage
in pain and hate
defining demons fate
I smile, and I smirk

make Satan easy work
vanquishing demons king
declaring hell my domain
no one to remain sane

humanity to suffer
intolerable excruciating pain
as I did for eons in
my limbs’ rotten veins

Shades of last evening

the beauty, charm, enchantment
of doubt has got you this far
don’t stop, don’t give up
universe will float afar
try to reach, that small twinkling
star, super nova, perhaps an inkling
of a new galaxy, where your dreams
even shattered ones, reside, scream
for redemption, and peace of soul
contraction of self into a black hole
let it happen, what else nature could do
let it rip you apart, let it through,
once each shred of you subsumed, consumed
in the fabric of nothingness, assurance will rise
certainty will surmise, in the shades of last evening
that, you existed and that my dear is enough
for me and for the love shared

Regrets

A kind stranger I met
We kept talking and he said
You know she was beautiful
I only have few regrets
I should have kissed her more
Should have loved her sore
Should have hugged till dusk
Keep smelling her musk
Should have played all nights
Visited far away sites
Should have laughed on her jokes
Gave all till I was broke
Should have smiled when she blushed
Made her calm when she rushed
She was all I had
I just worked instead
Now she is gone I am alone
In this world on my own
Have kids and such
But (with tears in his eyes), he said
I miss her so so much
Then we drank in her memory
He said don’t feel sorry
I am counting my days
In all possible ways
Waiting to meet her again
Body loses and I gain
My freedom to fly
The day I die
We become one again

Certainty

There is
no hiding from
or hushing death
Inhale it,
embrace it
Create a full circle
of life and ultimate destiny
Clock strikes twelve
Ready to delve
in secrets unknown
