I am stupid.
Nobody would ever say
I have a talent for words

I was meant to be great.
That is wrong
I am a failure.

Nobody could ever convince me to think that
I can make it in life.

Tree Plantation

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree,

A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
against the earth's sweet flowing breast.

A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray,

A tree that may wear in summer
A beautiful nest of robin in her hair,

Upon whose bosom in winter snow is lain
and in monsoon it intimately feels the rain,

Poems are made by a fool like me
But a tree is created by The God  only.

 Ugly


I'm very ugly

So, don't try to convince me that

I am a very beautiful person

because at the end of the day

I hate myself in every single way

and I'm not going to lie to myself by saying

there is beauty inside me, that matters

so, rest assured I will remind myself

that I am a worthless, terrible person

and nothing you say will make me believe

I still deserve love

because no matter what

I am not good enough to be loved

and I am in no position to believe that

beauty does exist within me

because whenever I look in the mirror,

I always think

am I as ugly as people say?

 Inner me


"The scariest thing I ever had

to encounter

Wasn't a ghost, or a big scary

monster

It was the reflection

I saw as I looked in the 

mirror

The moment I had to face

All the dark parts

I tried hard to erase

Yet as I looked a bit closely

At the eyes staring back at me

I realized they were still there

Untouched and unfazed

Waiting for the day

To be let out of their cage."

Without you


At evening when the lamp is lit,

All alone, at home I sit.

Night time calls, and to my den,

Of I crawl once again.


Silently I climb the stairs,

Now alone, without her.

I pray for my love, her soul to keep,

In heaven,

Where angels fold their wings and sleep


F.A.





Shadows



Lost in a strange city

With the scent of mystery

Clinging onto her soul-being giddy

She wanders about rhythmically.



With footsteps echoing in the empty valley

Shy, under a veil of eccentric-embroidery

She resembles the amber leaves of fall 

Swirling graciously, she blend in obtrusively

With the clouds of mist and ivory.

All i want is you


I love the way you drive

I love the way you fell for my eyes

I love the way you kiss my forehead

I wont let this all to end.


I know we promised each other

That we wont look into future

But i cant resist myself

I want you to be there.


F.A.





If


If tomorrow

I don't wake up

don't waste your energy

don't  waste your tears

don't feel sad for me

don't miss me

you don't need me.


But please

don't forget me.
