Locks of Winter











Locks of winter fall on ground


She has a hairfall all around.


The bits of ice


Quietly disguised


Fall on ground


Fall...fall...all around.





The hair has turned grey...


With white mist mixed clay...


The cold waves carrying around...


Her white hair falling all around.


Locks of winter 


Shining in moonlight


She has let open her hair...


To fall down back...on ground.





She flaunts...


Plays...


Rhythmically


Throughout the night.


She wears a gown of fog...


With slippers of glass that hold...


Her feet dancing on the ground...


Her ashes of white all around...





When light is low


And no birds show


Her heartbeats reverberate.


In the quiet spaces


Where darkness creeps


And shadows sleep.


Before the day begins,


She rises in air


Leaving frozen breaths as dew


At dawn over the leaves .





The sunlight dim


Fears to face


The gaze of the mighty chill


The winter as a Queen


Has a hairfall it seems


But the more they fall,


The more she grows


Gracious winter 


Has lovely white hair.

To my dead Friend

I am really disturbed with your absence dear...I think am feeling your pain...piercing deep into my heart...your words still echo in the silent corridor...crawling sluggishly...but still not reaching out of the door of my heart...I feel you are still alive but no....no more your smile caresses my smile...the lump in my throat is struggling to call your name...eyes following the crowd ....taking you over their shoulder...to burn you ...until no flesh remains on your bones... the ashes they would collect ... to immerse in waters faraway...


your pyres ...burn my heart....the flames rise to burn me...but the irony is that I cant show anyone my burns...my soul bears all the scars...I am whipped... strangled...suffocated...but still am living....like a shameless creature...like a haunted mansion...and you pierce my soul every night...with your giggles and those soaked eyes hiding your pain..when the last time you said...I am ok!

My Last poem....



























One day ....

My eyes will close....

And I won't wake up any more....

To see the birds or the sunshine....

To see that happy smile...



One day....

My ears will close....

And I won't hear anymore...

Your jingling in the garden....

The footsteps behind approaching...


One day....

My lips will close....

And I won't say anymore.....

To you I love you....

To you that am waiting....


One day ....

I'll be lifeless....

Dead and not breathing....

My pen would stop spilling the ink...

But my ashes will write on water...


My last poem ....

Life is a withering winter
