The Seasons of Affections

If absence makes one fonder,
Why do the lights blink a dreary blue?
Why do streets look lonely,
Houses, so bleak?
Why does time stop on the way to your house?
Why does the scent of yesterday,
Today, arouse?
Every soft silk,
Brings back a lingering stare.
Mind holds the emotions, and words,
The mouth cannot dare
To speak, to tell or even utter;
How heart some nights
Does skip and flutter.
The reigns of convincing are your own
The rains that were merry, already gone.
There lasts a moment
In a hundred thousand years,
That each second ticks by,
And I remember the mirth.
The glee, the ecstasy that comfort brings,
Amidst a nightmare, as your voice rings.
Lonely aisles, secluded corridoors,
Take colours out of life's rainbow galore.
Yet, the soul is whole,
And self complete;
With combined alphabets
When emotions compete.
Let the seasons show,
Their hold on you.
Affection binds them to curse
A silly certain few.

Evil Within

Bit by bit.
Pieces of skin fell apart.
The layers, each of which
Slowly succumbed to a merciless heart.
There is no cure,
With a 'Do no harm'.
That is what intices,
Is a part of your charm.
Omnipresent now,
Unlike the gravity.
A magnetic pull, yet,
Brings you to me.
We have danced around
Bottles of wine before.
Back then your presence
Did not invite any gore.
Laugh with me,
In this mystic game.
That within the parallel universes
Brings all the evil to shame.

Of the Ways to Heal

Laugh it off and pose for me
Oh dear serenity.
Lead me, seep me, absolve me,
For promising eternity.
Hide in the stars,
Where freedom lies.
Besides that, moonless skies.
Each on its own does shimmer,
A truth bold humans make dimmer.
I do not know all,
Nor want all.
I do not love all,
Nor the need to be loved feel.
But to be a part of you,
Oh sky.
And let you all my wounds heal.
Free me from all sorrow and pain.
Until I reach my true domain.

Incubus

Lend an ear to the verse,
I won't live long to sing.
Oh, Incubus.
Did you really grovel,
Or merely hurt?
Was it love you lived,
Or greed -the ill?
Was it both at ease,
Or none at will?
Did you tell the stars to shine down brighter?
Did you whisper to the moon, to dim its light?
Or did you simply wish
For the Sun to sleep early?
I wore black tonight.
Was it to mock myself, or mourn?
Did I beseech?
Did I invite?
Or was it Earth,
Who held her charms right?
You made me smile.
Twice.
Was it to prepare me to cry,
Or leave me to unwillingly die?
Dusk now, everywhere.
That which still follows,
Is your stare.
Kill me slowly,
O fiery serpent.
Your strength maybe all I have
To succumb to.

The lily and violet

Hold close, don't move away.
These winds are bound to stay.
As leaves fall, shrubbery dies.
Amidst the truth, individual lies.
Unmount, bit by bit.
Building blocks that move too quick.
A lily, amidst violet few.
I play with the sun,
And dance with the dew.
Until winds come and tear me away.
Wherever I may try to stay.
A daunting threat to the beauty of me,
Marrs love and death to be.
I am your own so treat me so.
O violets, in strong winds
Don't let me go.

Wherever you Will go

A walk in the park.
A touch, lingering in the dark.
The truth eyes speak is never their own.
The true sound for ears, yet unknown.
Do you smell love, like they do?
A soft fragrance of the dew.
Sweet from the flower it hits.
In reality, simple mist.
When everything is brighter for the eyes,
Night : only the twinkling of the skies.
The sense of real then dies. Beneath the beauty, honest lies.

My first spider song

Voice, now turning deep.
Eyes, trying to weep.
Hold on.
Watch the spider thread its home,
Bit by bit,
Into human reality.
Venomous?
Not in the least.
Not from one of the beasts.
The thread will keep little ones safe.
Is that what I was born to do?
Make three, out of turbulent two?
Slowly watch myself suffer,
The pain that is, The sweetest buffer.
My web won't last
For the selfish world.
Woven emotions, kicked upon.
Sprayed over with the detergent of deceit.
Let's last until our words we keep.
