The Palette of Life

-


Every dawn, a splash of gold,

A story of dreams yet to unfold.

Crimson beats in the chest’s embrace,

A fierce, unyielding, tender pace.


Blue whispers softly in moments of ache,

A gentle reminder of hearts that break.

Green blooms where hope’s seeds are sown,

In every leaf, life’s promise shown.


Purple shadows in the mysteries deep,

Guarding secrets we vow to keep.

Colors mingle in a perpetual dance,

Life’s mural painted with every chance.


No single shade can truly define-

It’s the blend of all that makes us shine.

A canvas vast, both wild and free,

The endless spectrum of you and me.

Without Your Presence

-
Image
  Without your presence, I am as the moon bereft of night, a silver pilgrim wandering beneath a heaven that has forgotten how to cradle the stars. *** Tell me- is this love, so profound that it has become fear, or have I made your nearness the very breath upon which my soul depends? *** As your lover, I find in you the spring within my winter, the harbour where my restless heart lays down its weary tides. When you are near, even the leaves seem gentler, and the wind carries a tenderness it does not bestow upon the lonely. *** Yet when you depart, my heart becomes a forest at twilight- every rustling branch a question, every wandering breeze a foreboding. I fear the silence after your voice, the emptiness beside me, the long and solemn hours in which your absence becomes almost tangible. *** As your mother, I love you with an ancient tenderness- the tenderness of earth toward the seed, of rain toward the parched meadow, of the dawn that watches faithfully over a sleeping world. *** ...

THE FORBIDDEN WITCH

-
Image
  They taught me how to kneel with grace, To wear a mask and soften tone, To hide the wildness in my face, And call obedience my own. They dressed me in the roles they made, And stitched their laws into my skin, They drew the paths where I obeyed, And locked the doors I was not in. We turn like cogs within a scheme, A mirror shaped by what they knew, Mistaking borrowed rules for dreams, And calling chains a freedom too. I felt their expectations grow, A quiet weight beneath my breath, Yet something fierce began to show, A fire that would not bow to death. Who wrote the rules I must obey? If custom is yesterday's decree, Why must tomorrow kneel today? Who gave the first command to be? Was it a hatred in my heart, Or hunger for a life divine? Was love a cage disguised as art, With golden bars made soft and fine? If I refuse another’s crown, Why should I seek to rule instead? If I reject the master's throne, Why place that throne above my head? I do not seek to rule the land, Nor ...

The Princess with Starry Eyes

-
Image
  The Princess with Starry Eyes Princess, with eyes where the starlight gleams, What secret light awakens in your dreams? Deep in the quiet chambers of my heart, Your painted image never fades apart. Like moonlight resting on a silent sea, Your distant image keeps returning to me; A beautiful mystery I cannot disguise, A world of wonder hidden in your eyes. Did you stitch the veil that conceals your face, To hide from the world your tender grace? Was it woven from memories of pain, From broken trust and promises made in vain? Then let me weave you a scarf of silken light, From threads of affection, tender and bright; With love for its warp and compassion its thread, To comfort the dreams your wounded heart has shed. Not to hide your beauty from the world outside, Nor claim the heart you have chosen to hide; But simply to shelter, if love ever can, The fragile soul beneath the veil you began. For if your picture can leave me this way, Breathless and lost in its beautiful sway, What ...

Echoes of Flight

-
Image
Once, a whisper of leaves, a forest's soft sigh, I was the river's clear voice, beneath an open sky. Roots deep in the earth, where silence held sway, Every dawn a fresh canvas, every night a gentle decay. No burden of thought, no ambition's sharp sting, Just the flow of the seasons, the joy birds would sing. A fragment of wildness, content and serene, Living the moment, a vibrant, green dream. Then a strange yearning, a twist in the light, Pulled me from stillness, into a world of new plight. Stone paths instead of soft moss, harsh sounds in the air, A heart now encumbered with worry and care. Faces like masks, hurrying past in the street, Promises hollow, both bitter and sweet. I built walls of silence, though longing to share, A captive of striving, caught in a human despair. Dreams like tall towers, yet crumbling to dust, In this race against time, I lost all my trust. But a glint in the distance, a flicker of hope, Beyond the grey concrete, a boundless wide scope. The ...

The Little Lunchbox

-
Image
 A small tin box, its edges tightly bound, Against the clang and grime that did surround. A mother's care, within its metal kept, A taste of home, where weary spirits slept. No painted scenes, no playful figures bright, But sturdy steel, to face the factory's light. Inside, a piece of bread, perhaps some cheese, A humble sustenance, to bring some ease. The soot-stained fingers, reaching for the prize, A moment's pause, beneath the smoky skies. The rhythmic pounding, of the tireless mill, Against this quiet comfort, standing still. A boiled potato, maybe pickled fare, A simple meal, to banish grim despair. Packed in the dawn, before the whistle blew, A silent promise, "I am thinking of you." Though light in weight, a heavy love it bears, A mother's heart, without pretense or snares. Each midday meal, where "mother" softly flowers, A love that blooms through all the passing hours. The clatter loud, the gears in endless spin, This little box, a world he...

Let It Go, Love

-
Image
The man who once said he’d run away if nothing worked out- the one who dreamed of escape as if running could erase what burned inside- I saw him today, standing among people and noise, a stranger wearing his old face. Not even the courtesy of a smile. He looked past me as though the years between us had turned into glass- clear, hard, and impossible to break. And I- me, who once trembled at the thought of losing him- stood there, finger twined in my own hair, pretending to be casual, borrowing laughter from strangers just to decorate the silence between us. Maybe I wanted him to ache, just a little, to feel the sting of recognition. But his eyes did not search for me. They stayed clean, dry, untroubled- as if the woman he loved for five long years was only an echo he’d once heard in a dream. And yes, I remember- I was the one who first followed, first confessed, first built a world out of letters and phone calls. If all those words had bloomed, our little universe might have filled the...

Beneath the Ancestral Roof

-
Image
  I entered where the ancient corridors Held dust and dusk in equal, solemn keep; The house seemed built of centuries and stone, And every silent chamber seemed asleep. Yet by the hearth, where dying embers glowed, A little figure stood beyond the flame; She bore no terror of the grave or night, But looked upon me quietly, as if by name. Her eyes were deep as wells of vanished years, Her face as pale as moonlight on the floor; I knew not whether she was dream or shade, Nor why my heart had known her long before. I asked no question of her troubled eyes, Nor sought to learn what kept her spirit there; I sat beside the cold and ancient wall, And let the silence breathe its secret air. Then slowly came the tale she could not tell In life, but carried through the years unseen: Of greedy hands that measured blood and land, And weighed a child against a family’s gain. They spoke of lineage, inheritance, and name, Of fields that must remain within the line; And beneath such words, so grav...

The Endless Wait

-
Image
  There is no end to waiting in this life; It stretches far beyond the fading line, Wearing the quiet smile that conquers strife, A gentle spark that makes the darkness shine. Perhaps it is fate’s gentle, sweet deceit, To warm the weary heart when night is deep, With soft rays of tomorrow incomplete, Promising truths the quiet soul can keep. We wait for love, for safety in the cold, For one kind hand to reach across the space, To understand the stories left untold, And wipe the subtle shadows from our face. The thirsty rainbird waits upon the bough, While tiny seeds sleep deep beneath the sand, Trusting a sky they cannot see right now, To bring the rain and blossom on the land. My soul, too, waits for its own hidden birth, To break the stillness of a darkened room; Though ages pass and wander through the earth, Every long night awaits a morning bloom. Our parents waited for us long ago, Before we ever knew or spoke their names; Now in our quiet hours, we seek to know The warmth tha...

My Solitary Path

-
Image
 I am a solitary seed, buried deep, Beneath the frost where whispered secrets keep. No common root to twine, no shared sun's kiss, Just the vast, silent world, and my own abyss. Because my speed and distance match the road, I never bump into anyone I know. Everyone I pass is a loner too, Walking paths that only they pursue. I walk the same line, the same pace, At the edge of crowds, a phantom grace. My heart is guarded, like an ancient wall, Fear of trust keeps me from giving all. Once, I drank from wells of many, Now dry echoes remain in memory. A well abandoned, cracked and hollow, Once filled with hope, now steeped in sorrow. The echo of trust turned slowly to dust, A bitter lesson learned, a broken crust. My eyes reveal what words cannot say, A quiet ache that will not fade away. “Just a pain,” I softly claim, While pain resides in shades of gray. Few understand this silent plight, So I retreat quietly into the night. Silence weaves its tapestry around me, A quiet tenant holdin...

A Pool of Flame

-
Image
  Under the soft glow of moonlight, we slipped through the quiet gate. The night, a velvet hush, draped over naked shoulders, warm and late, embracing our shared fate. Stars danced across the water’s skin, twinkling secrets in the dark, a silent, knowing plea. The sky, a tapestry of silver threads, finely spun, matched the fire your touch ignited in me. A whisper of air, cool and light, brushed our skin, carrying chlorine, lust, and endless night. Alone at the pool, the world asleep, lost in dreams, our bodies bathed in the moon's tender, silver light. You dipped your toes, a playful gesture, and turned to smile, your eyes a dare, a silent question I couldn't resist. Then with a joyful splash, you pulled me into the cool embrace, and met me with a soft, teasing kiss. The water clung like liquid silk, a second skin, our limbs entangled, slow and gloriously free. Your hands explored in playful swirls, a lover's dance, beneath the moon’s approving, watchful gleam. Laughter tur...
