The Tilted Screen....






Image result for soul rising out of body























As I lay on my bed,

Breathing my last fainting breath,

A smoke rose around me,
With tilted head I looked around,
No one to be seen or found,
A hand grasping my throat,
Cutting out the supply of air,
Making me struggle,
To escape this inexplainable misery,
Something twisting inside me
Like pulling me,
Shaking the roots of my spirit
That had taken deep,
Still unclear why am I alone here,
Where are the ones who loved me.



Then I forget......

Where I have been?

Who I have been?

And why I have been?

I look up...

And find a light, so blinding...

No sound just silence, so deafening...

I look back...

I find darkness....

A blackout....

Terrifying....

Filled with unknown sobs,

Strange people sitting around a lifeless body,

Only thing is.....

It WAS ME....

An empty heart...

































I broke the glass of words today...

In the room filled with silence...

It shattered on the floor crushing away...

Some voices, some dreams I say...



On the floor, I see some tears...

Weeping away the words you spoke...

Some anger burning my words...

May be they are now free to smoke...


Some giggles like ripples...

Rise above like invisible...

Some whispers, tremble...

Echoing to fade forever...


Some moments as if quiet...

See me and my plight...

I kneel on my knees...

Wiping the dust I see...


Simple glass was this...

Was once full of dreams...

Now lay shattered pieces...

Nothing left but an empty heart...

A hustling wind....








Am just a hustling wind


Whistling all the way.....unseen

Waving away....a little gust near ears...

Making my presence felt

And at some point .....
Dissolving in absolute nothing.



Sometimes a smoke I am....

And sometimes pushing raindrops,

Sometimes with the fog I emerge

And settle down as a drop of dew...


With dawn, I wake up as a breeze....

Cool and full of energy .....

At nights.....I howl my greatest fears

And sleep in the trembling cage.....


Sometimes I rise with the dawn

At noons I collide with the bright

At dusk I melt with the purple and orange syrups

At nights... I hide in the shadows away from the light.....

Singing my unsung songs to who can hear all......



Life is a withering winter

 When people ask me... do I still remember you? I go in a trance, my lips hold a smile and my eyes are visible with tears about to fall. I r...
