The Curse and the Gift
Death—a common yet shrouded mystery, Like a tiger, always lurking beside its prey. When the time comes, it takes; It cares not for you,

SHUT.
You shut my mouth too tight, silenced me until I shrank to nothingness, stabbed me multiple times. ___ The knife plunging deep,

Parasites infecting my brain Crushing my soul Causing my heart to strain Making my eyes roll Parasites Crawling everywhere

Soft Rain
I woke this morning to the tink, tink, tinkling of raindrops against my windowpane. It wasn't a demanding, threatening rain...but instead, it was inviting, calming, and so good for my soul. "I needed that," I thought as my sweet Pit, Mr. Boss nudged me with his cold nose and smiley face.

Why?
Why? Why am I like this? Why do I cause drama? Why do I self-sabotage? Why can’t I accept someone’s love? Why don’t I believe in myself?

Ephemerosynthesis
Author's Note :Ahhhh! Finally I've done this. This piece was a bit of a personal challenge for me—crafting a “wordic” poem, aiming to layer meaning into each line with unusual and evocative language. Finally, here it is, an exploration of silent expression and unspoken essence. I’d love to know—how does it resonate with you!

Kaliyug!
What has happened to the society That it is presenting even evils as good. What has happened to our own people Those who are our own people are fighting with their own people. What has happened to man That he is feeling himself in "I". What has happened to human nature That he is always right and wronging others. What has happened to religion and science That he is always attacking each other. Now people go around talking on the streets Maybe it is not possible to stop this now. People ask each other what is going on Some remain silent and some say Kaliyug is going on.

Friends forever
In the gentle glow of friendship's light, Where laughter dances through the night, I Thank God. For a friend who makes my life bright. Through seasons of joy and times of sorrow, We've shared our hopes for a better tomorrow. Hand in Hand, we've faced each test, And with unwavering faith in our hearts, We're blessed. In your smile, I find my cheer, In your presence, all worries disappear. Your words bring comfort, a soothing embrace, Your thoughts solve my troubles, a calming grace. With you, every moment is a pure gem, A treasure is more precious than my life. In our life, let's raise a toast, To the bond that means the most. Through thick and thin, come what may, Forever friends, in every way. So here's to you, my dear friends true, With a heart so warm and a soul so pure

If only
Whenever I'm alone Whenever I'm cold In the quietest of tones I feel a presence great and bold I try to ignore it It comes back at me

Windows of desire
If worlds were windows, people would peer, If life were clay, they'd shape it clear. If money were seeds, they'd plant with care,
