Above the clouds
In the white gleam
Inspiration from
a beautiful dame
Smile so pure
Welcoming to
the core
Eyes telling
of hope and
Joy endured
Goddess
With her hidden
blushing smile
Makes flowers
Blossom in
a while
Thank you
For being there
and for all
affection
attention
and care
thousand
colours beacon
of hope and love
is the key
where I be
if not in your heart
Deserts, dunes,
oases opportune
dawn bearable,
too hot at noon
walk run, walk run,
repeat and repeat
keep dodging death,
every hidden defeat
boundaries pushed far,
endurance to extreme
walking on the water,
nothing is what it seems
rest is no option,
sleep standing a while
too far still to go,
body and mind’s toil
destination is known,
let courage keep calm
soul will find peace in
redemption sand storm
A long day, a hard day
It will pass, it won’t last
Keep hopes high, Let fate fly
Rugged, tired hands when stop
Universe reaches absolute calm
never lose hope, all is in your palm
Never, never, ever quit
In time, pains will remit
Hard work will absolutely pay
Keep faith my child, I hear divine say
Posted on the wall
In earth’s biggest mall
exploited to the core
each shop, in every store
Beauty, what we have done to you!!!
Sweat runs, forehead to toenail
Time has stopped in sweltering heat
Chores get accomplished at the speed of snail
All muscles go, all systems fail
How much more do I sacrifice for this pittance!
An arm and a limb, a hit or a cut
Take your given tools, have a go in the rut
Excruciating pain, then you stop abrupt
Thanking your marbles you weren’t born without luck
If not here
where exactly
Reality of life
is ready to hit
the true misfit
perhaps for one
last time
ready to quit
no black suits
no lamp lit
just solitary coffin
that is it
Hope trapped in
minuscule crystals
translucent image
of what remains
still and will be seen
for teaching a lesson
for generations to come
I was the mason
created quicksand
someone didn’t land
so soft so beautiful
can’t waste such mastery
a sacrifice made
a price was paid
my sweet darling hope
was trapped instead
forever, infinity
no even divinity
could rescue, such
is the genius of its creation
now I roam the earth
mocking with mirth
cursing the birth
of universe and time
unable to cope
such is the effect
everlasting defect
of losing hope
intricacy of hue
carries me away
no opinions matter
just your colours cater
for what life is going to be
the distance between us
is nothing worth mentioning
time in between albeit
is centuries if not more
you live in palaces,
my solace on shore
admire opera and ballet,
I listen folklore
diamond, gold ornaments,
black iron is my core
thousand hearts sacrifice,
none comes to this fore
money never in torn pockets
you have more and more
few steps door to door,
still destinies apart
