The Steady Choice

-


When the world is hushed and slow,  

Your name inside begins to glow.  

In quiet moments, soft and bright,  

Love’s gentle whisper takes its flight.  

  

It’s not a spark that fades away,  

But a warm and steady ray- 

A promise kept, a vow renewed,  

A choice to love, forever true.  

  

Not just words or fleeting sight,  

But choosing you through day and night.  

In busy times or peaceful rest,  

To hold you close, I do my best.  

  

When sun wakes up or stars appear,  

I say again, I hold you near.  

With every breath, with all my might,  

I choose you still, with pure delight.  

  

Love’s not a moment’s fleeting flame,  

But a light that calls your name.  

A gentle dance, a steady song,  

To love you right where I belong.  

  

Chosen, again and again, I stand- 

With open heart and willing hand-  

Because in loving you I see,  

The greatest choice that set me free.

The Silent Witness

-
Image
I have no words left to utter, No visions remain that I long to see. Today, my eyes reject the world, My ears deny its endless cries, And every thirst within me Has dried like a forsaken riverbed beneath a dying sky. *** For Time now rushes through the earth Like a flood gone rabid in the monsoon night- Mud-stained, furious, uncontained- Dragging shattered truths, broken prayers, And the corpses of forgotten hopes Through the veins of humanity. *** Before my eyes March the masquerades of invisible horrors, Faces painted with virtue, Hands dripping with hidden cruelty. Their voices rise like funeral drums, Piercing the ear, Splitting the heart open Like lightning tearing through an ancient tree. *** Though wisdom survives in books, Though knowledge glitters in proud tongues, Men intoxicated by power Roam like maddened tuskers in heat, Stampeding beneath flags of a thousand colors, Each cloth stitched with division, Each slogan another wound upon the sky. *** Blood-hungry wolves Crown th...

The Age of Noise

-
Image
  We built our cities out of glass and light, Yet filled their veins with loneliness. The streets glow brighter than the stars, But human hearts grow dimmer every year. Every tongue now speaks at once, Yet truth survives like a starving orphan Sleeping beneath the bridges of history. We no longer listen- We only prepare replies. And so the world grows loud While the soul grows silent.

The House Breathes Again

-

The House Breathes Again **************************** Love never entered my life like a storm; It arrived quietly, like rain entering dry soil. No one teaches the heart how to belong- Just as no child is taught how to smile. *** Marriage, I learned, is not merely romance; It is philosophy wearing ordinary clothes. Two imperfect people slowly discovering That companionship matters more than perfection. *** The sages speak of rivers meeting the sea, Losing their names yet not their essence; So too, in marriage, two separate lives Flow toward a shared existence. *** Summer spreads across the city like exhaustion, The sun itself appearing tired of burning; Even the restless winds carry irritation, As though nature too has limits to endurance. *** And then my wife leaves for her parents’ home, Taking the children and their laughter away; Suddenly the walls become philosophers, Teaching me the meaning of emptiness. *** I wake and prepare my own morning tea, Listening to the silence between u...

Break the cage

-
Image
  Dear daughters, break the rules that taught your wings to fear the sky, You were not born for silent wounds, nor made to live and slowly die. Break the rule that calls it grace to hide your pain and softly bend, A voice inside your trembling chest was born to rise, not just pretend. Break the rule that weighs your worth by vermilion or wedding chains, No sacred thread is greater than the soul that breathes beneath your veins. Break the rule that says your hands were only made to hold the weight, To carry jars of bitter tears and call it your appointed fate. You do not owe a debt of blood to ancestors who chose to stay, Your loyalty belongs to her- the girl you were just yesterday. To free yourself is to go back through every branch of your own tree, And cut the ropes of every ghost who never had the chance to flee. You are not meant to guard forever the comfort of the ones who break you, A home that steals your light away is not a home that deserves you. If love becomes a cage of...

The Mirror That Never Broke (Poem Revised)

-
Image
  Look closely at this broken world, Where silent flags remain unfurled. The wars of nations first begin Inside the quiet hearts of men. *** Each cruel act starts silently, Each throne is built through loyalty. Each mighty empire starts to fall When truth exhausts the hearts of all. *** The end need not arrive with flame, Or thunder crying out its name. Sometimes it walks with silent feet, Through minds grown tired and incomplete. *** Through indifference cold and deep, Through endless noise that numbs our sleep, Through consciences that slowly fade Like dying lamps beneath the shade. *** And then they offered paradise: A world untouched by grief or vice. “No hunger here, no tears, no pain, No fear, no loss, no death, no shame." *** Come "worship, serve, obey, belong, And life itself will flow like song.” The weary souls believed the lie Like birds that trust a darkened sky. *** Behind the holy golden frame The hidden red beam softly came. It wore a mask of spotless white And...

The Betrayal of Light

-
Image
  The lamp still burns- A flicker in the vast darkness,   Yet it no longer guides with gentle hand,   But blinds the weary traveler,   Confusing shadows for truth,   Leading hearts astray in its glare.    ***  Even the stars, distant and silent,   Watch from their eternal heights,   Witnessing a world unraveling- As humanity trades its soul   For fleeting applause, for hollow praise,   For illusions that fade with dawn.     *** Oh,blind Light!  Ancient guide of wandering souls-   When did you begin to serve the shadows?   When did your glow turn cold and distant,   Your warmth replaced by a harsh, unforgiving glare?      *** Wisdom once a gentle beacon,   A harbor in the storm,   Now drifts into arrogance-  A fortress built on pride,   Deaf to the whispers of humility.  ...

Love After Ashes

-
Image
  Though we had never met, my eyes sought yours, Through roads that rang with sorrow, dust, and pain; Yet still the lamp of hope refused to fade, And love moved onward to the dawn of light. ... They said your beauty rivaled moonlit skies, I wished to see what time had made of you; Your dark braid brushed against your shawl at dusk, And turned my barren nights to songs of spring. ... I was no garden rich with living blooms, But like a ruined fairground after rain; Still scattered stars awakened deep in me, And formed bright parades within my dark heart. ... At every step, the stones became my test, And solitude became my fiercest guide; I learned to walk though both my wings were torn, Till pain itself grew into humming songs. ... Will fate bring roses, or a bed of thorns? I tossed my coin against the winds of time; Though centuries of suns had scorched my flesh, My heart still searched the ashes for new life. ... So let us start with one uncertain glance, No borrowed vows, no grand...

The Tools

-
Image
  ********** I drew with ash on ancient cave-stone walls, While blood and sweat ran dark through broken palms. I thought that pain alone created art, And wore my wounds like medals on my heart. **** I carved through life with chisel, wood, and stone, Like stubborn kings who starve beside a throne. I called my chains devotion to the craft, While wiser men moved forward strong and fast. **** Then came the men who spoke to light and glass, Whose silver engines worked with lightning fast. They built great worlds before my work began, While I still carved one shadow out by hand. **** I mocked their craft and cursed the tools they used, Like frightened priests whose ancient gods were bruised. “This is not art,” I proudly said with scorn, “Machines make copies where no soul is born.” **** But through the cracks the restless night-wind spoke: “You praise the hammer more than what it broke. You think that suffering itself is wise, While stronger ships already cross the tides.” **** The trut...

The Lifelines I Keep

-
Image
  In hushed abysses, lifelines rest, Veiling secrets the soul has pressed. In shadowed depths where echoes sleep, I guard the dreams I ache to keep. My verses murmur through the night, Concealing truths from tender sight. Each measured line, a fragile grace, A fleeting truth I cannot chase. A silent strength within me lies, A gentle wound that never dies. Yet through the stillness, paths appear, A quiet courage drawing near. They carry whispers, soft, concealed— A secret dance the heart revealed. Each word a shadow, vast and deep, A vigil over what I keep. For silence hums a secret song, A steadfast spirit, fierce and strong. These lifelines, veiled in shadow’s keep, Hold every story I dream and weep. In quiet’s realm, my soul abides, Where hidden hope and wonder hides. Their speech is silence—pure, austere— A tranquil voice that dwells sincere.
