~ I feel it ~

Hadn't there been a light so far
That shined in me so bright
Missing something in my life
That turned this day to night.

I wish I could stay for long
Holding my breath ever more
Hiding myself in this world
Pretending to be strong.

Memories that I hold so close
Won't let me sleep at night
With every dawn that breaks to light
Wish I had you at my sight.

Every hour that's passing by
And with every breath I take
More do I realize
Parting was mistake.

Deep in me is a crying child
You can calm with a lullaby
Any day or any hour
Nothing would ever satisfy.

~ എന്റെ മരണം ~

ഇനി ഒന്നു മരിക്കണം -
എന്നിട്ട്‌ കാണണം,
ആർക്കഭിമാനം ആകുന്നു ഞാൻ.

ഏതോ യുഗത്തിൽ ജനിച്ചു മരിച്ചൊരു,
അന്ന് മനുഷ്യനാം ഇന്ന് ദൈവത്തിനോ.
അതോ പണിതുയർത്തിയ ആരാധനാലായതിനായി,
മനുഷ്യനെ പിഴിയുന്ന മതത്തിനോ.

സേവന പുതപിൻ കീഴിൽ ഒരു,
സ്വാർത്ഥത മാത്രമുള്ളൊരു കൂട്ടത്തിനോ.
അതോ രക്ത സാക്ഷികൾക്കായി,
ഉറ്റുനോക്കുന്നൊരു രാഷ്ട്രീയ പക്ഷത്തിനോ.

സ്നേഹിച്ചുവെങ്കിലും ഇല്ലെന്നു കേൾപ്പിച്ച,
കാമുകി എന്ന സങ്കല്പത്തിനോ.
അതോ കെട്ടിയത് മൂലം കൂടെ നിൽക്കുന്ന,
ഭാര്യ എന്ന സത്യത്തിനോ.

ആർകുമില്ലെങ്കിൽ പിന്നെന്തിനീ ചങ്ങല,
എന്തിനെന്നെ ബന്ധിച്ചു നീ.
സ്വപ്നങ്ങളിലേക് പറന്നുയരാൻ ചിറകുകൾ,
എന്തിനു മുറിച്ചു മാറ്റി.

നിബന്ധനകൾ ഏറെ നീ വച്ചുനീട്ടി,
ജീവിക്കാൻ എന്നും ഈ ഞാൻ മാത്രം.
കടപാടുകൾ മാത്രം അന്നും ഇന്നും,
അതിനപ്പുറത്തൊരു ശൂന്യതയും.

മരണത്തിലൂടെ ജയിക്കുമെന്നോർത്തു ഞാൻ,
സന്തോഷത്തോടെ ഞാൻ കണ്ണടച്ചു.
നാലുതോള് തന്ന് ആനയിച്ചെന്നെ നീ,
വീണ്ടും കടപാടിൽ മുക്കി കൊന്നു.

~ Inner Peace ~

Fluttering wings of fire
So desperate for freedom
All I can see
Is the world outside

On the top of the voice
I cried for mercy
Till the feathers fell
Off my body to the ground

Deaf ears they pretend
Chuckled on my pain
All for a reason
That anonymous gain

Accustomed to the chains
The seeking freedom
When I found within
Peace is what I’m living in

Table turns for good
Their persuading fell flat
Gates were opened and
The shackles set free.

Fly to freedom they said
Slowly chuckles replaced with mine
Freedom is what I sought
Freedom is where I am.

~ Love Story ~

She never said she did
And how much I excited her
But I knew she had it.


Every single time she gaze
And the longing I see in her
Breaks me to core and pour.


Couldn’t help, but submit
Knowing I’ll lose myself
She is, worth losing for.


One among many to fall
With a glimpse and urge
To touch her lips and soul.


Out from the sky I fly
With distance in seconds
Though as time stands still.


Just in a hands reach
About to touch and feel
When time turns moments.


Out from nowhere
I tremble and got driven
Far from her, the destiny.


I did quench, though
The thirst and the longing
Not of the soul, but the soil.


Died and buried underneath
With love that lasted a life
How long can I be captive?


Will rise again from ashes
And pour down on you again
But, in another monsoon.

~ Déjà Vu ~

Far from the past

I was running away

All alone in the street

Not a shadow to follow

And I stumble on you.

The roses in my hand

Withered dried and died

Still holding on together

Though in pieces as petals

And yes, I fall for you.

One by one it fell

As I let it off my hand

Finally an empty hand

In fact two, to hold you through

And I start with you.

A difference to make

Left no stone unturned

A rose for a change

That’s a way to start

And then I realized

That’s always been the start.

~ You & Me ~

  

Crossing the seven seas,

Millions of miles in reach,

However far you go,

With every high and low,

You will always be -

A part of me.

I'll bathe you in colors,

And every scent of flowers,

Playing with the hue,

With a masterpiece in view,

You will always be -

An art of me.

In anguish my soul,

Your breath is so cold,

Unpleasant memories that unfold,

Though whatever you hold,

You will always be -

Sweet heart of me.

Loved and lost,

Tasted as a pinch of salt,

If ever again I long,

To love a life lifelong,

You will still be -

That start of me.

~ The night we had ~

 

The scent of a woman,

that specific woman;

Torn clothes,

and the cluttered linen;

Prove the night we had.

The moan that buried, beneath

the fluttering window drapes;

The bite marks,

and the nail marks;

The battle marks of making out.

Dead on one’s feet, after

a battle of fire and ice;

Burning in desire was pleasing,

so was melting to the core;

All before I close my eyes.

 The morning sun,

and the sea breeze,

pleased me indeed, but

distraction needs something more,

than her towel wrapped soul.

With another smile,

and another kiss,

she fades away from sight;

As I dissolve in the fantasy,

Of the night we had.
