The Reality Of Life

© Faaizah

a candle light burning inside of me

shadows bowing upon the walls illuminating us all

the laughter the pain

what do I gain?

the knowledge I seek

this era of mystique

the pink hues

the pretty blues

the devil's red

I will not be misled

the angel's white

will set me aright

knowing every second is a certainty

to I will cease to shine

and darkness will befall

in a form different from all

makes me ponder

how do I live to the fullest?

how do I be the bravest?

understanding is the key!

living with no regrets is the door!

open your mind

Look! Don't merely see

the ocean is not just water

a candle is not mere light

it's not limitless

it's not endless

for light is life and

life is certain to meet death

on this sacred journey called

LIFE

A Wish Invisible

© Souvik Deb

Fear fills me through and through,

As I lay in bed confused.

The numbness I had is leaving me,

The walls I built around me are breaking,

And slowly I'm beginning to feel- once again.

Although memories come back to me,

And the reasons why I chose this solitude,

Echo in the recess of my mind,

I fear this time it is not enough to help me escape,

The confrontations I have always avoided.

All I want to do is walk away.

Which till now has not been an incident rare.

But this once mastered art seems to have left its artist.

And thus like a traitor so much like a Brutus,

Stabbed another Ceaser in betrayal- though unfortunately not with killing intent.

Before their time I see them.

I see my cat- his furry figure white as snow,

Speckled with brown here and there- lay,

As still as the floor that holds him.

I see my dear little sister- still unsure of my disposition!
