Kite dancing in a hurricane

 

The wind reeks of innocence again,

a danger to the wandering hearts of men,

For,

the strength of her embrace

rips them to shreds

like kites forlorn

in a gust of  tempest.

 

Nostalgic Dawn !

Sometimes its just a scent,

a slight fragrance

carried by the breeze

or

the warmth of the first rays of dawn ,

peeking behind a blanket of clouds

triggering primal feelings

deep, strong feelings

of awakening

of fire

unquenchable yet momentary

And in that moment

one reminisces about the beloved

and feels alive !!

She rules the sky tonight

shroud in a ruby bodice

emanating an eerie crimson glow

like lovers

basking

in each others afterglow

Or perhaps

 like a mirror

she reflects

the battered faces

of our earthly matters

Blood we spilled in vain

replicated in heaven

But I feel,

No ! rather hold sacred

that she

mystically allures

 ascetics & dervishes

armchair poets & drunkard lovers

For

they all are searching

to drown their “Self”

in Universe’s oceans!

Atonement !

Rituals and obligations

that is what is ingrained

the soul is left to wander

its atonement the biggest worry

but the medium mundane

for we believe in acts of worship

in ceremonies and protocols

but have we forgotten ?

God  may absolve  His rights ,

 but unforgivable are the rights of Adam’s brood ! !

Lunacy !

 

Throwing back the black wisps

that shrouded her voluptuous frame

Selene burns pale bright,

her radiance inciting lunacy

in  

lovers & artists , 

poets & fanatics !

 

For tonight,

She walks among’st mortals

shrouding them with the glare of her soul 

the sips of her moonshine setting 

ablaze passions & ascetic whirling

of both body & soul !

Terey sheher e husan ko dekhney tu sabhi  atey hey magar

 terey baaab e dil ki ziarat momin e muhabat ki hee hogi!

(everyone comes to view your city of beauty

but the pilgrimage to the door of your heart will only be done by  the true servant of love)

terey jaaam ki saadat e saqi

hath sey muqadar ki lakirey kaatney wali ki hogi !

(only the one who has cut the lines of fate from his hand will

have the honour of drinking from your cup oh my beloved)

Nazrey tu sabhi milatey hey hussain lekin   ,

wasal e yar mey abhi kafi nasheb o faraz hogi !

(Everyone tries to covey their message of love  in their glance hussain

but there are bound to  be many ups and downs  to achieve the love of the beloved)

Flames that you doused !

Fire extinguished

embers dead and cold !

reduced to ashes !

you blew them  out

and left me stranded on the shore !

maybe I wouldn’t  have

been  that depressed

If I hadn’t seen you

stroke

the fires with your

own hands!

But  you have doused water on it

and I am glad its dead

glad I don’t have to deal with

daily mood swings

that messed with my head !

glad that

those tiny glimmers of hope

have finally came to an end

their glare no linger filling me

with visions of the life

we would have lead !

Now I just wish to drift

on the fresh winds of hope instead

enjoy life, heal a bit inside

go crazy with my friends

for the time to feel sorry for myself has gone

the time  has come

to reconcile  the past

 to settle the future

and make the future less glum !

Ashes of Passion, Ashes of Longing !

~Oh the agony of separation consumes me

the memories of your smile drowns my soul

the thought of you flipping your hair wounds me

I feel a void in my soul when you are gone from my world~

~and this fire,

this fire is burning away my soul

leaving ashes of passion , ashes of longing ,

ashes of feelings deep and unsure  !~

~And I wish a wind blowing

may lift and carry them home

to  brush your satin skin,

part  your luscious lips

and caress every part

of your voluptuous form  !~

~so that you fill up with the deep ocean of longing

the deep depths of desire in me,

 the chasms of lust and longing

that are forever beseeching me !~

~And so that I die peacefully

with you finally aware

that I am forever in your debt

enthralled

forever your loving slave~

Moderation Is The Key!

The time has come for  metamorphosis

a time for reflection, growth

and prognosis

For

the winds of change are blowing

and leaves of familiarity are whirling

people seem to be changing

some for better, some worsening

And

the world seems to be full of fellows

who love exuberance in lust and wealth

pleasures vain and hollow

While

on the opposite end we  find

people stuck in the ritualistic side of life

thinking outdated religious and traditional practices

have more worth than humanity and sanctity of life !

Therefore

it is essential for us to gain and balance

both worldly desires

and heavenly benevolence

For God

loves moderation, peace and love

not

violence, intolerance , greed

corruption and ever tempting   lust !

Love/Hate Heartbroken !

Pull me into an endless fall

down a vertigo of lovers  enthralled !

fighting a war of broken hearts ,

 seemingly stuck forever in this  masquerade ball …masquerade ball

Push me to despair,

make me scream with the scent of your hair !

As I dream to keep you mine…..mine ..

And Stab me again

push it in and drive me insane !

make my heart bleed with tears of pain….pain,,,

 And Clouds of  smoke seem to  float in the air,

the fires of your pleasure being fuelled by my despair!

Love, Hate and Pain

 existing in this Trinity of unholy affairs!…unholy affairs !
