Beneath My Tomb!!

Listen, the music of my silent tomb

Beneath the soil, amid the frozen bones

Lay my poisoned, yet cozy bed

And many insects, for my time be passed

Forget me brothers, and my loved ones

Though many had already forgotten

If blessed some time, come here and sit

Or else, snakes or worms, continue your speak

Ah! There lies my wife, let her lie

There she is at rest, so am I

And far lays a man, yet again is cursed

Lies beside his wife, stops never her tongue

Passers remember me as you pass by

As you are now, long once was I

As I am now, so you will be

Though Death is out for free

A Heart that Questioned an Angel

A Heart that Questioned an Angel

 (23^rd/December/2008)  

Oh! Heavenly creature, do you wish to care?

And answer my doubts that I declare

Where are humans that once were born?

And those who ruled with love and not by hatred among?

Come whisper the truth if you wish to care

And be the light through darkness I fear

Lost I stand amid the many men

And reached the path from where I began

Will you not answer my plights and come down;

And wipe my tears and say, “It’s all right, son”?

Will you not ease my pain dwelling for so long?

Or walk my path and say, how it feels being all alone?

Oh be blessed the sky who taught me well

To hide my tears and cheerfully smile

I only joke, for I wish to hide myself from all

And laugh from fear of being left abandoned by all

For how long will you stop, stare and smile?

Not forever, but come down for a while

This night in sleep when I saw an angel bright

That night my soul left this world in fright

In world of heroes then, I found myself to be

Where the birds sang and danced the happy wind

And from far, an angel glanced and smiled

As if to say, that world was never meant for me!
