Colours.....

I wish I had more colours with me

All I have is black and shades of grey

I would have painted the most beautiful picture

Allowing my thoughts to stray

I would have depicted love through a mother’s eyes,

Aloneness through a lover’s byes

Deceit through a fiend’s vice

And pain through a baby’s cries

But you know that I would fill the world with rainbows

Taking the glory away from you

This is why you have given me just No’s

Every time I ask a favor of you

But there would be a time, when you realize what I am

For I know you would walk me through the sands of time

*Pardon my immaturity at this amateur attempt of poetry. Hope to improve with time! :)

My sorrow is not for sale

My sorrow is not for sale,
Nor for exhibition.
Yet I end up auctioning my tears
The devil bids the highest.

Guess I'm the one who's most familiar with this. My only hope would be to wish that the devil is actually an angel in the guise of a devil

The Black Wednesday

I know you don’t respond to my nonsense prayers

When all I am bothered about is I and my life!

I know you don’t respond to my earnest prayers

When all that’s filled in my heart is deceit!

I know I have been selfish and conceited each and every day

But please listen to me today when I pray

Coz today my prayers aren’t about my life and my worries

It is about the lives of others and their miseries

Enough blood has been shed in the name of religion

Enough tears has flown for the conviction

Don’t you think its time you showed us some mercy

Coz I don’t want my land and people burning in fury

No land of mine will be under siege again

No person will lose their comrade yet again

Coz we shall join our hands

And rise to protect our mother land

Enough is enough! I would say

Give it back to them in their own way

Weapons of destruction we shall disuse

Our message of peace, you shall not ridicule

Don’t you think the time has come

For people to untie and become one

I pray to you to show us the way

To live in peace each and every day!

(Dedicated to the brave heros who lost their lives so that we could live to see a bright new day!)

I’m knowledge; I’m wisdom

I’m music, I’m rhythm

I’m love; I’m life

I’m innocence and rife

I’m day; I’m night

I am your life’s light

I’m nature; I’m beauty

You know me as eternity

I’m one; I am formless

I’m still and timeless

I’m strong; I’m invincible

I’m infinite and universal

Seek out; I am around you,

Look inside, I am within you
