OPPOSITES

It is not love
That we love
It is the joy
That comes with it.
It is not for joy
That we are joyful
We are only fearful
Of the aches
That comes with pain.

 

DARK STAR

Here, I am an invisible
Dark star among
Thousands of silvery stars.


 

 

THE BRIDGE

The bridge that divides
Us all is like the nose bridge
Between our two eyes.




CRICKETS

Twittering all day long
All night till morn.
In your cycle of twittering
I wonder what tales or gossips
You bear.



 

STARS ON THE SEA

This shimmering sea at noon
Glitters a thousand
Drowning stars.


 

 

HEART OF ASH

He walked into the
Living room of her heart
She let him sit by the hearth
That he fan the embers that
Had grown cold
All he had was a heart of ash!



 

IDENTITY

Me, a poet?
No! I am the mirror
Of what I see!
I reflect the lies told
And the untold truths.
I am you glittering before you
In a clear pond.


 

 

 

LONELINESS

It is being lost
Not being alone
That is loneliness


 

 

DESIRES

Are we not all pagans?
Bowing to idols
On the alters of our heartfelt desires?


 

 

 

IMMORTALITY

We walk on thresholds
Of immortality
Until we fall off
The cliffs of mortality.
