Life In A Tree

--------------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------------

Then you rest your head in the dark 

Feel the brush lines of the tree bark 

The tree in house garden you used to climb

Hang on the branches with dreams to grow tall and fine 

Run around in that garden no matter the sun, the fireball 

Play 7 tiles, blind man's bluff, and dodgeball 

When you run inside to have one of the mother's fresh limes

A leap to the sofa with the lemonade your mom made

Still, you sip on that with a piercing headache after wine 

Simpler days with fun, tv, and food to eat all the time 

Months ended with Sundays or family dinner nights

Months that end with weekdays and hangover sunlight

A tear in your eye as you pray to the Lord with belief and fear and faith 

Rewind a few years and your lord was the set of two, parenting, teaching and now gaining some weight 

The sunlight comes, you rub your eyes and see those tiny optical illusions 

Same were the ones when you questioned your humanness, your superpower delusions

Windy Ways

--------------------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------

Then I walked across you swiftly as you noticed me

Touched your hand gently, as you felt the breeze 

Moving through seasons all I, I come by surprise 

Notice me you wouldn't, until you feel me move by

For your beautiful eyes can't see me

All that I do is just make them heavy 

Nature calls to me as it's own and nature is divine 

Valleys of mountains, trees and sea have seldom told 

And it is all a creation of art, art sublime 

Trails don't speak of me, they whisper and I mould

Travel across the alleys, alleys of the world whole 

That is what I do, and never of what I'm told 

Understand it now my sweet love, you're an obstruction in my move 

Understand, I always have a way to go

Love to make you dance, sing and groove 

Then You seek me in the summers and turn your back in the cold 

Remember when I walk swiftly, you notice me bold 

Remember as I make you feel good and fleek 

This is my time to go, they call me the wind, you can call me the breeze and there, there I just brushed your cheek 

--------------------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------

Desire

----------------------------------------------------xxx-----------------------------------------------------------

Its when the morning ray races to your face

The point where there isn't much more to take

Lay there messed up in a quilt dress you procrastinate

You get off bed, yet you still contemplate 

In a world of hassle, and trouble you follow

The world where you don't find a lover

Filled with empty people make you feel hollow

An escape in music, music is where you find cover

For the mind is full of stardust and supernovas 

Solace can't be found on the nostalgic sofas

A havoc created in the corridor full of scatterings

You stand where there is an out of this labyrinth

Find a place where you find imagination run free

A place where you can in-ordinarily find motivation to keep

Breaking the shackles holding your life static and bound

Freeing for the wisdom and suspense that waits to be found

Walk out of the shambles which cave you in

The scatterings from the galaxy and its elements

Just as you stroll your ways out of self made maze 

You realise how you need to travel, how it can amaze

The blue-eyed boy

------------------------------------------------------xxx---------------------------------------------------------

Delightful was the weather, yet so cold 

Cozy and warm he sat, let mysteries unfold 

Moonlit window, blue outlined face his 

Features highlighted, shut were his eyelids 

Worlds of fantasy and things so wild 

Life happened to him, wasn't mild

As blue he was with the moonlight bright 

Tight his cheeks and wrinkled eyes 

A different story was told by the smile

Cold winds blew heading the north east mile

Sat there he on the couch, fire crackling

Reminiscing, he sat there warm and fulfilling 

Waiting for the dawn 

Soon enough, for him, another challenge was on

------------------------------------------------------xxx---------------------------------------------------------

Runaway Kingdom

----------------------------------------------------xxx------------------------------------------------------------

With violence and all those other feuds

When they are all that surround you

It is all just so glued 

Hard for you to even walk nude

Talking becomes a waste of time 

Even with the person who was sublime 

And all that is on the very weary mind 

Surrounded by the feuds and battles all the time

The memories are all just supposed to make sense

Of all the times that things were intense 

Thinking about it all, it's your wrists that clench 

Run back away is all that is left in the end

The walls that surround you with tunes so loud

You are just able to block away that crowd 

Some food, music and not to forget a beer 

Live alone and nothing left with fear

The quietness, bliss and the air so eerie 

No cares, fights or the slightest of worry

It is your kingdom to rule alone and no one else nearly

Who treat thy kingdom with fraud, battle or worry

In the very kingdom you found

You walk some many rounds

Rounds that cover a mile or so on the ground 

Yet you don't feel caged in the compound 

Nobody to worry or care for the farts you leave everywhere 

You feel the words getting lighter as your eyes get wider

Not as wide when you do something nasty in the shower  

When you imagine a waiting lover while you wear your trouser 

No food stolen from the kitchen so clean at night

Living alone, there is glory and much delight 

Walking back to same old feuds and fights

How pointless it seems compared to a lone movie night

Nobody to worry about or concern 

The dishes in the sink and the food undone

You should have done it, instead of the other fun

The blame is for you take with no place to run

You step away from all the feuds and fights now 

Living alone is your whole new life now

All parties are yours to handle and take 

Until the next morning when with regrets you wake or not to wake

Dream On

--------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------------------

Have you ever heard people say things like

She’ll step back at your gate

It’s her to time to make you wait

That she will need to be by your side

Do you ever think about things like

The time you spent thinking on her lap 

When your arm slept when she took a nap

That you will need to be by her side

All you need now is to take back what’s yours

All you need now is to take back what cures 

The moment you let your guards down 

Just when you need to feel her arms around

That’s when it hits you

She’s gone

Can you ever remember those times when

You felt so complete with her 

She fell deeply just like her lover

You saved her from those bad men

Did you ever need her when

You lost that one and only friend

You had that one vivid dream

You saw her leave when you were mean

All you need now is to get back what’s yours

All you need now is to get back what cures

The moment you let your guards down

Just when you need to feel her arms around

That’s when it hits you

She’s gone

Now you see a shadow through the window

Now you hear a knock on the door

You see her standing there with a red nose

You walk up to kiss her, there the pain goes

After the sunset there came a sunrise

All you needed was to hold her tight

All you needed was to see her to your right

When you see those lips wrinkle her eyes

You are then and there mesmerized 

That’s when it hits you

She’s a dream

Feeling Combined

--------------------------------------------------xxx---------------------------------------------------------------

Heavy the heart, narrow mind

Combination of all things combined 

Hatred, feelings unspoken 

Anger, state of mind in 

Fear, how fragile the bones 

Faith, the twists and turns 

Sadness, in those I fear 

Joy in the things dear

This is no easy game of chess 

Not a game of poker can you mess 

Can't roll a die to win through 

You roll one and I get two 

One step was to victory 

All the way to round two you carry 

Couldn't roll a three or four 

Seems it didn't matter anymore 

I roll a five and you a six 

Nothing I can do now to fix 

One to six, all the way now 

Nothing left to help thou 

A game for you is so funny 

Each game won, ''twas so cunning

Kuekuatsu

--------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------------------

You never know where to end
You never find out where to begin
Things just go out of hand
That is when you give in

A long start of a starry night
Yet they dim with the moon light
The lonely survivor with its might
She stands alone in her fight

The lover the moon was
The lover she can never be
Dangling above a billion lives
She, the moon, can't find her lost cause

A path weary and frail
She goes around searching like Nightingale
She is a light that brightens at night
Not because of the darkness
But just the will to fight

To fight and find the piece she lost
The piece stolen, the piece gone
To find the peace that it holds for her
To hold on to it tight

A little stroll forward
She stumbles on to someone
Someone close to her all this while
Someone she met after a long while

The sun who traced her path
She stayed with joy and tears mix
That day was called an eclipse
Their story reigned for centuries
The Kuekuatsu couldn't beat destiny

Bonfire Poem

-------------------------------------------------------xxx-------------------------------------------------------

Sat along the fire

You dig deep into those desperate desires 

For every-time you were said to be a liar 

Even the matters, Your matters dire 

Alone you sat there 

With all those memories that haunt 

There you lie as the night sky flaunts 

Thinking about all things in your life, not fair 

The memories that you created, you lost 

You kick every rose that you come across 

See you there lie, so still

I hear you chuckle, 

laugh at your own shaken fate, so bound 

Wait I, until this moment you ricochet back around

-------------------------------------------------------xxx-------------------------------------------------------

Transforming Landscapes

--------------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------------

Amidst this changing landscape I go

These places I didn't see before 

Wondering how these hills were formed, so high

Take me to new scenes as the clouds above fly by

Hope it doesn't pass, this endless moment 

These new places as I before never dreamt 

Sparkling eyes with beauty intake 

All that misses is the beauty you could never fake 

Those eyes hid with childlike innocence 

Your eyes, the natural beauty I miss 

That hairdo so tidy and dense 

Visit these landscapes next I will 

Completing nature with the beauty of you

Thoughts of you made me feel so full

Little joy, love, faith and a little bit of fool 

These moments I capture in my eyes and mind 

All shall be complete when spaces between my fingers, yours they find

--------------------------------------------------------xxx--------------------------------------------------------

Memoir

-------------------------------------------------xxx----------------------------------------------

I strolled into the alleyways 

Where my father took me to Blake 

He showed me the 'garden of love' 

The garden where I grew up under his rays

Ran around in circles I

Stopped, just to my surprise 

Under my cap, stood my brother with mother

Hear now the church bells ring

With them, the poets sing

Sing along the glory rhyme 

And just going down the very line 

Saw a lady in white with a glass of wine 

Thought it to be a garden of love with Blake

Saw my sister with the wine at the lake 

They all had gathered in the wake

Mesmerised at that hazy sight of mine 

Stood by a crooked wall, I find 

How memories take us away 

How memories can never be taken away

-------------------------------------------------xxx----------------------------------------------

Season of Christmas

------------------------xxx----------------------------

''Twas a few nights before Christmas 

Winter as cold as the mountain peaks 

Dark moonlit night it was 

The moon light which highlighted your cheeks

Sun was stolen from the sky 

The shepherds sang the glory rhyme 

Sat far you by the fire 

Who you wait for, lady mine

Felt so lonely, felt so mild 

It's a Christmas season, smile

Spread the joy, spread love around 

The two things, hidden, in you I found 

You sit there thinking about times 

Times you fought, lost track of lines 

Ever wonder where I might be 

In the streets, the church or my reverie

Another chapter in my endless stories you write 

Maybe not treat you like a princess, but my lady in white 

Cold wind blows, making the hands cold 

When I reach out, warm, your cheeks, like everglow

As 'twas the night before Christmas 

I ran away from worldly business 

Knew the place to go after the liquor round 

Fast I ran, sweating in the winter so cold, I found 

I found belief, believe I fell, but not down

Day of the Doctor

A tribute to the doctor for his inspiring adventures. 

--------------xxx-----------------

I helped people

I helped others

I held everyone when noone was together

It has been a while since I came here

It has taken a while for people to come near. 

Time has its own pace 

So does it have its space

When you bend it all

You twist and roll

You know, time has just begun. 

Years pass, days end

I have seen the world bend 

The end of time 

The end of space

When nothing was left but my own race. 

Time is all I have 

Time is all I control

Time is the very essence in my bone. 

Friends and armies from across galaxies

Foe and enemies from the parallel worlds

They fear nothing, they kill all, they step on humanity with god knows what all. 

The one, the last him all, they have time to choose

To flee or run or hide or face the might of The Doctor Who. 

I travel along with my arms alone

Nothing but the TARDIS to ride

The thrill, the chase, the fun

And the never ending daemon's run.
