The butterfly~~

I listened to a song
It was about a girl
She wanted to be a butterfly
Yet, she refused to get out of her cocoon

I could identify myself with that song
I have always wanted to fly
Fly free without wings
As would a fairy or even an angel

I could see myself as this girl
Being the one with frail beauty
With strength hidden in my soul
Strength I kept only to use with what I need

Yet, when I did try to shed off my cocoon
I faced with so much of problems
That soon I chose to go into hiding
Once more, I would be a hiding pupa

But then Fate showed itself
I could not fight its way
I could not hide myself
I became indeed a butterfly

One so pretty, so bubbly
That life itself looked at me with envy
Life itself bowed to my whims
Scared at the intensity of my glow!

Haters lost in sorrow

Haters come and go
Sometimes they fill us with sorrow
At other times, they make us glow
Proud we are after all to be causing them some woe

Haters come and go
Like dogs bark after caravans
Yet should I let myself be bothered
Should I let my inner peace be shattered

Haters are like the seasons
Sometimes they do see in us some reason
At other times they stab us with precision
Yet, they realise not that I care not for their pricks

Haters, I love you
Thanks to you, I feel alive
Haters, I pity you
Without me, you would not exist!

Another Lady of Shallot

I  once came across a poem
It reminded me of my own mayhem
Not only  love was its anthem
But it had loneliness as its other gem
It was about a lady, who died in her maze
A maze made of magic and containing a curse
While reading about her, my own blood did rush
Why, it would seem that for love and loneliness my entire name did gush
Well, well, would it not be best to live and not make any fuss?

I do live as did the great Lady of Shallot
To my own stand, I have tied the knot
So much that my entire life seems to be a complot
A divine one, why for my bad deeds, I am sure the Lord is all put
Once full of love, I now shine in solo
The side I show to the world is the one so smiling
The side I show to the world seems to be thrilling
Lost in needless dreaming, my real side can be killing
For it made of more than many a woe

I shall ride my boat
And allow my pride to gloat
Of course, hidden inside my coat
Would be my  heart, as frail as a child in its cot
Of course, my curse I would wait on
For a curse it may be, but a blessing as well
Who can ascertain that he can foretell
Whether life shall give me hell, or whether it shall give me a bell
To ring and announce that I am but the eternal one!

A modern Shallot lady, made of whims
I shall recount to you in writing, my dreams
As long as my art shall follow its many streams
Why as long as my heart does give out silent screams
My curse is known only to my soul
Shall you once or twice do hear my voice
Know that I have every reason to rejoice
For I myself have thrown the dice
And the heavens did hear my call!

Open Wounds

When the cloud was dark and blue
You were not there to infuse me with hue

Alone and miserable, I begot the fate of the Virgin Mary
To suffer shall I in this world, never to be making merry

Yet, with time, I did grow and ripen
Opening my memories to those wounds, I remained heartbroken

Only to find that time can be cruel
What are left are only tears to marvel

At the emptiness you left with your pranks
Shall I surrender to the demons after looting the banks?

When the cloud was dark and blue
I saw the meaning of your plays through and through!

The Crystal Ball

While I waltzed at the Ball
A little voice I heard
Go ask the Crystal Ball
It said, to have your future heard!

I left the dancing knight in doom in the playroom
Opened the door of the secret room
And verily inquired of the Future
If it will come with Defeature!

No, laughed the Happy Ball
You will not remain a Fallen Soul
You will be saved by your mate in Soul
All you need to do is to give him a Call
And tell him how miserable you are without his Enthrall
And how you will give your Catcall
To lament at Nightfall
If He is not here to stop your Fall

Smile, cried the joyful Ball
Your miserable state will be in Stall
For you shall Rise, along with the Sunrise
Together with your mate, whom you Idolise
Both of you will be Symbolised

Sing, whispered the overwhelmed Ball
For the Heavens will be singing words of Praise
At your mate's love for your Gaze
Your abandon in your Maze
That which you chose in a moment of Craze
So blind were you to be love of your Mate
Will be remembered as late

Dance, asserted the ecstatic Ball
For the Future is coming at the Birdcall
Your Mate cannot be without your caring Call
And neither can You be without his Recall.

Oh I am Impatient,
Without your Love, I am Deficient
I am still in Learning
To be Abiding,
Please forgive my Caprice
For I become heartbroken without your Edifice

Books and Poems

Words, lines, verses, stories written in books
So easily, they get us in their hooks
Covers, imbibed with a mystic fragrance
Designed to have us all in a foggy trance

Stories weaved and spun
Reading which we go on a run
Seeking liberation and freedom
Oh how my soul relishes this kingdom

Fantasy, romance, horror, all made of fiction
A world to escape to in times of heavy friction
O poems of mine, given from the divinity
I wish you be remembered for eternity

May your essence reach our Lord
May your rhymes liven up his abode
Written they were in the midst of His own revelation
Awakened I was by his own mysterious perfection


O verses of mine, do imbibe our people with pleasure
Be in their chest, their sole treasure
Whether they do cry or smile,
Do move them to my fancy all the while!

These days~~~~

These days, life feels sweet
To the Love God I wish to send a tweet
If not only to tell him thank you
Thank you for washing away what did make me so blue

These days, I feel like I am flying
Always up there, searching and searching for a yet higher ceiling
Never being bored, for life does hold many a surprise
Never being bored, for each day does give a new sunrise

These days, I care not about what did make me sad
Sure, sure, it did make me mad
But maybe Fate wanted it thus
Maybe there is a reason behind every fuss

I wish I could have some magic
I would attempt every little trick
I would experience life in all forms
For, seeing the days, I am but full of charms

Should you wish to have a little of my zeal
Come, come and with me, in front of God do kneel
He shall shine his light on you as well
You shall feel as I do, as if you were his only jewel!

Finding God

Many of us do search for the truth of God
We search for him everywhere, in temples and churches
We even try to make Him come to us by chanting more than one bead
Readily we shall follow those who do hold his name as preachers!

Yet, God is not to be found thus
Subtle are indeed His ways
After all, He did make for us, sunny days
So, if you do search for him, you shall find him in all aptness

God does show Himself to those who love Him truly
Those who do yearn and pine for Him
Those who are ready to sacrifice everything for him readily
Those who without Him, have their eyes always full with tears to their brim

Shall you be given the option, between the real and the unreal
Shall you be able to pass the test, so terrible
Pray tell me, if you do search for God
You have to yearn with your heart, only then you shall be heard!

The Lovestruck Witch

O poor poor old hag 
She was surely old and and ugly 
But she did deserve a hug 
For she was filled not with evil and cruelty 
True, she did kill Cinderella 
True, she did kill Ariel 
True, she did want to be the one bella 
True, she saw herself not as old, but as the great belle 
When she met this great knight 
She swore to kill him right there 
For he had come to steal her night 
To make sure, the rest of humanity had some safe air 
But when she did look into his eyes 
She fell, and fell into a world she knew not before 
She wished for all her slain boys, no more cries 
And she desired to be as sexy as the town's whore 
So she sought out the help of dragons 
Maybe they could capture her knight 
And bring him to her dungeons 
She would make love to him and it would be alright 
She sought the help of the wizard 
Maybe he could bring up a love potion 
She would be in love, and there would be no hazard 
For love is surely that which keeps the world in motion 
She ate frogs, as they would give her her beauty back 
She drank lizards' blood as they would make her look young 
She would no more be slack 
And for her, church bells would be rung 
Yet, she remained a poor poor old witch 
For the knight was none other than a God 
He had come to give her more than a twitch 
But realized that she was one who wished to be desired 
So he let her be, let her suffer 
Said he, let her live in this world 
Even if she was to live forever 
It mattered not, as long as love was now her soul's word! 

Lovely World~~~

The wait is over,
No more do I hear the thunder
No more do I see the clouds
No more does it fall, the spattering rain

Gone is the pain
Shed off is my dark shroud
I feel like a dying caterpillar
Ready to face the world as a frail beauty

Shall you love my fragility
Shall you see it as a threat
Shall you curse my own being
Out of fear of being seen as the one so un-elevating

Pray, fear not,
Your day is now only at its start
Life is meant to be spent on equal terms
To be enjoyed and lived as one would deliver slams

Lived without undue expectations
Without any fear and hesitant impulses
Life is meant to be lived loud
Of course, without being scared of the grey cloud

I did find my goal
I wish you find yours as well
For me, the wait is over
Now, I do fly without any fear of falling!

Love and its purpose~~~

Why do fret over physical love
Is it a need in you?
Do you need it to feel complete
Or do you simply need a side to feel reassured

Do you feel for yourself, that such you do deserve
For without it, you would simply be an unfit, for sure
Seek you in the other one, a peaceful retreat
Seek you in him or her, an escape from that which is all weird

That which you seem not to fit in
That which dances in and around sin
That which you like not
For over it, many a times you do become all upset

Ugly is how I see this process
It is but a mating process
To keep your species alive
To keep it all strong and brave

Did you ever wonder about life's purpose
Are you going to be here, like a lovely rose
Always tended to
Always full of fans and gardeners?

So please, do widen your gaze
Unfold your many ways
Follow not those paths, so like lost and strays
For you would see only your physical needs, as always!

The scroll~~~

My heart signed
For the prince it pined
Yet, horror has just struck my inner being
The news read that to a lovely maiden my prince will be marrying

Horrible was such a messenger who brought me such a miserable scroll
Surely he must be mad, why maybe he was even a troll
Working for the evil witch
The one who always wished to be rich

The one who sent us all this message
Reading which my heart went into a rage
Yet, as I look out at the scenery
I saw, the prince walking over the balcony

He was coming towards me
Surely to enjoy a chat
As was his usual habit,
He did claim to love my eye's clarity

I re-read the message again
If the prince did love another
In such amorous ventures I would never gain
Strongly I would try to let go of him forever!

Invited you all are, to the town's grand wedding
Please be dressed and all decked up
You shall enjoy some dance and some pleasurable sup
After all, the prince's wedding is surely a unique happening

How could it be
What shall become of me
My heart beats only for his eyes
Now I shall have to live on with lies

Bold, I chose to face him
Maybe he shall get over this mad whim
Maybe he has come to seek forgiveness
Come, let me go, hopefully, relieved shall be my distress!
