I was robbed
My words, my feelings, my confidence
Stood there staring at you weakening my masculinity
All the pores on my skin opened for a cool down of what was to be
Beauty is what they would use to describe you
But for me not a single world that was fit to describe you
It's a moment that will never be staged.
I will only describe it once and that's by saying that it was a moment on the mirror

Precious
When everything was going wrong had no clue,
She came in my life when I was blue.
When my brain was in complete haze,
Felt like I was stuck in a maze.
When life was driving me insane,
Wasn't in a state to swallow down the pain.
In a world with full of people saying "I'm done with you",
I found someone who held my hands and said "whatever the problems are we'll solve it together,the life which seems torn together we'd sew".
All those wounds got healed,
She always stood in front of me like a shield.
I found a woman stronger than me,could see my future in her eyes,
We both share the best friendship ties.
And whenever I'm about to fall,
There's always someone beside me to hold me up standing strong like the Great Wall.
I found a person who can bring the best out of me,
In company of whom all those negative thoughts flee.

IT WAS A DAY LIKE ANY OTHER
Not long ago, it was a day
like any other.
Still feeling my mother's
presence, deep into the heart.
Hearing her sweet whispers
which always brought peace
to my lonely soul.
It was a day
like any other.
An unexpected twist
turned my life upside down.
Things became meaningless.
It was a day
like any other.
Tears were inevitable
while being brave,
gathering pieces,
trying to solve
life's unsolvable riddle.
It was a day
like any other
The sunrise was overcast
by clouds, as myself
trapped in thoughts,
body astray
in the midst of nowhere.
It was a day
like any other.
As in birth, the bond
between us was being ruptured.
A new life had begun.
It was a day
like any other.
A muddle of abandon and fear.
Many doubts, one single sureness.
It was time to face
the ineludible death.
It was a day
like any other.
Though believing that
life never comes to an end,
there was I, saying goodbye
to my beloved mother.

.......So long
It's been so long since we last hung out in bars,
So long since we last sat under the sky covered by dazzling stars.

So long since we last walked holding hands in hands,
So long since we last danced on our favourite bands.
So long since we last watched horror movies till late nights,
So long since we last had pillow fights.
So long since we last giggled,
So long since we last cuddled.
So long since we last kissed,
Your presence still remains missed.
So long since u last flirted with me by your eyes,
Not seen u since we had the last goodbyes.
So long since we last camped in the woods,
Not seen u since we both chose different routes.
I miss u,I miss your mellifluous voice which still echoes in my ears,
All those beautiful memories that we made together rolls down my eyes in the form of tears.

I try
I try to erase the memories that we together made,
I try to hate those places where we together stayed.
I try to forget the time that we together spent,
But they always end up leaving me behind to lament.
I try to burn all emblems of our love,
My soul tends to flee away & seek refuge in the sky above.
I try hard to redeem my soul,
I try hard to patch my life's hole.
I try to edit the moments of my life that are already gone.
I try to find out that disguised smile which I once worn.
I try to lead a life full of peace & tranquility,
I try to destroy all those things which led to my insanity.
I try to move on,
I try to await a new dawn.

They say," i gaze a lot at those stars that rarely shine"
"Am lost in an own world of mine",
.
"where my eyes constantly stare the dark yet silent unending sky",
"and that my face reflects everything in the sky that passes by".
.
Blank face and silent eyes,
Contain most deadly chaoatic vibes,
.
Lost smile yet overall peaceful,
A rare view of the calm and distressful,
.
At the same time in the same me,
Do they see.
.
But there's something they aren't aware of,
I stare at the sky cause,on land, a part of my soul i have already lost,
.
When someone finds peace in the galaxy,
It means,
The world have given them enough pain,
To leave them totally broken.
But the stars Know all those tales left unsaid,
Unspoken!

t was a wonderful summer evening and the sun was going down by inches.
I reached the destination where we purposed to meet. It was merely twenty footsteps from her
apartment. Though the meeting itself was unexpected, I was very eager for it. I stood there
waiting, hoping she did not judge me by my looks. I was suddenly awed by a beautiful girl
approaching me from the side. It was Natalia.
I shall never forget my first sight of Natalia. Her slender feminine form, outlined against the
bronze light of the setting sun. I was caught in mid-breath, suspended by a sense of slumbering
fire in those wonderful brown eyes of hers. Eyes that were different from any other woman's that
I have ever known. They were glimmering pools of intense dark mocha with flecks of amber
which gave movement to stillness. She gave me a shy smile which conveyed the impression of a
wild untamed spirit in an exquisitely sensitive body. Natalia burnt herself into my memory. I
shall never forget that day. The lustre of her hair, glowing as if every strand was lit from within.
Not by the sun-drenched sky. But by the feminine fire in her.
I could not help admiring the cascading loose waves of her glossy hair and the smallness and
whiteness of the hand she held out to take mine. My heart shuddered and dropped from my chest
to somewhere below my ribs.
"Hi, I am Natalia."
I could not remember my response. I wish I could. But I was too much in shock to be cool.
Coolness had fled scorched by her fire.
We sat on the black bench which was right at the corner of the little dusty ground.
Natalia: "How do I look"
Andrew: "Awesome, Is it your natural look"
She stared resolutely unimpressed as if I didn't notice her makeup.

If u aren't with me I feel like suffocation,
It leads to my frustration,
This all happens without any provocation,
Just u start appearing all around that I know is mere hallucination,
It's not infatuation,
Rather it's a sacred connection,
Waiting every single second for your approbation,
Winning over your love is my life's only determination,
To whom so ever asks about u I end up with your immense appreciation,
I'm on the way of a long journey u being the destination,
You're my most beautiful imagination,
To all my mistakes you're the much needed rectification,
I need u along with me in every situation,
You're my only source of motivation,
I'll be running on the streets shouting that how deeply I love u without any hesitation,
No matter if someone puts on me any allegation,
Once you're along with me I won't care about any implication.

I hope one day u realise that how lovely u look,
When u carry that simple look.
U don't need make up or any filters bae,
Cuz you're special in a different way.
I hope one day u realise that the love and care you're seeking for in others,
I'm the one to end your hunt and also the one to protect u from those lightening and thunders.
I hope one day u realise that how much efforts I put in just to bring a smile on your face,
To fulfill all your dreams I'm always on the chase.
I hope one day u realise that seeing u sad,
Makes me feel extremely disheartened and bad.
I hope one day u realise that when u say those lies,
It breaks me from within and the poor soul cries.
I hope one day u realise that when you're close to me,your touch how it feels
Wounds & cuts,if any heals.
I hope one day u realise that you're the most important person of my life,
Someone whom I wanna see as my wife.

Heartbreak
Lately something terrible happened that gave me cuts deep & painful,
I was low,my soul was aching
I was howling,my body was shaking.
All & all I can't express that feeling,
The very thought of that horrible incident got me reeling,
My heart was crushed & those cuts were barely healing.
All my agonies & sorrows I never wanted to reveal,
I tried my best but for long wasn't able to conceal.
All those facts & truths were untold & unspoken,
Like a piece of glass delicate & fragile my heart was carelessly handled & finally broken.
'Twas quite difficult to recollect those millions & billions pieces of my heart to bring back to its original shape,
'Twas quite difficult to bring back to life those good old memories which were already buried in the grave.

JAR OF ROSES
No words running through my mind
I feel lost and confused beyond imagination
It was short of anything I could expect
Walking from door to door like a clueless monk
I don’t want to revenge but have the motive to,
Restless I am and the world seems to be clocking backwards,
Anything I come across could tell of the rage in my bloody eyes.
“Don’t hurt me” the lock whispered as I lay my fingers
I want a solution to this dilemma but am
Short of time and room to be creative.
Broken into a thousand particles that can never relived.
This heart shaped vase is the last thing I ever wanted to loose.

If we never met again
If we never met again,
The dreams we once saw together,the future plans we made would all go in vain.
Maybe I'd listen to a sad song while lying back on my chair,
Or sob for hours holding your photo in my hands while lying down on the stair.
I'd produce the lesser out of me,
When u aren't there no longer with me.
I'd crave for felicity,
I'd crave for tranquility.
Maybe it's your beautiful face that would appear everywhere,
Maybe in your hunt I'd wander here and there.
Maybe I'd held myself guilty for our separation,
And harm myself or damage things out of frustration.
Maybe I'd do anything & everything that sounds weird,
Just to have me with u,even the things which I once feared.
Maybe remembering u day in & day out I'd get loud hiccups,
Maybe I'd think it's u on the phone every time anyone calls me up.

Title: Conium Maculatum
Eternally wrapped in the solace of time, you seized my soul and pushed me to the mirror maze of life. These infinitesimal moments of empty togetherness brings me a feeling of desolation and agony. Oh Life! Why do I seek thy shelter when I know you aren’t my home? Let me go to my true home; that is where I find my harmony.
Delbert Shokem held back for a moment and took a deep breath. His hollow brown eyes gazed at the words he scribbled in distress. His brows shrunk as he felt a lump in his throat when he tried to summon his calmness amid a chaotic mind charging at him like a raging bull trying to gore a matador.
The man reassuring himself that his words would be read fairly someday by the children of Minerva, the goddess of wisdom, he trampled his anguish and resumed writing. Against all fears, doubts, and apprehension, he wrote -
It’s agonising to see my resolution go in vain. They are rigid; my students. Their obstinate determination to neglect the pattern brings an insurmountable rage and angst in me. All I want is to guide them. But they think I have severe apophenia. They want me confined by these walls out of fear. I am no phantom. The real ones lurk outside. I am a free man they can't confine.
Delbert stopped writing and placed his untiring pen down, leaning back on his chair. He looked around with his retired eyes and saw a bed in the corner of the room waiting for him with its arms wide open. Aside from the old bed and the wooden chair, the room had a table with a paper and a pen on it, a lamp, an analogue clock without numbers for the numerophobic man, and a pot of water in the dimly lit patient room of the Mental-health Institute & Neuroscience Department.
Being seated on his chair, Delbert looked upwards, facing the roof as he closed his eyes to drift deep down his thoughts for a moment. A slow smile worked its way across his face, gradually turning into a laugh, and then, a maniacal laugh heard through the corridors of the hospital.
Professor Delbert was a renowned ethnobotany researcher, known to be a prudent man with an intriguing countenance. His stubbly grey beard, shaggy hair, chiseled visage, and perspicacious personality had earned him a stellar reputation among his peers. His alluring brown eyes mesmerised anyone who attempted to look into those depths of the Marianna trench for the untold secrets hidden within them. While he remained a well respected science faculty, his critics occasionally complained of the professor digressing from the subjects being discussed to bizarre concepts that made no sense. It remained a trivial concern until one day when he let those secrets out to his students.
It was a sunny afternoon in April when Professor Delbert was with his class explaining about a poisonous plant that had the properties to cause severe manic depression and death in human beings. In the middle of the session, he found his thoughts drifting towards a disturbing, dark alley.
He abruptly stopped his lecture and stood completely silent for a while. An air of melancholy clouded his mind as his countenance changed to that of a man who had witnessed the doomsday befell upon humanity right in front of his eyes.
‘What do you truly seek?' inquired the professor with a loud tone as he narrowed his eyes and leaned forward towards the students expressing his inquisitiveness.
The instantaneous change in the professor’s manner of speech and countenance alarmed the students of the Castaspel Institute of Technology & Think Academy.
‘Please don't be intimidated, students,' pleaded the professor. 'I've been speaking to some university members about invisible patterns all around us and requesting them to be a part of my enlightening process. For reasons unclear to me, they seem to expostulate. They find it juvenile to believe that there is any conspiracy being hatched by this universe against humankind. This is what I would be discussing with you all.

Professor Delbert was a renowned ethnobotany researcher, known to be a prudent man with an intriguing countenance. His stubbly grey beard, shaggy hair, chiseled visage, and perspicacious personality had earned him a stellar reputation among his peers. His alluring brown eyes mesmerised anyone who attempted to look into those depths of the Marianna trench for the untold secrets hidden within them. While he remained a well respected science faculty, his critics occasionally complained of the professor digressing from the subjects being discussed to bizarre concepts that made no sense. It remained a trivial concern until one day when he let those secrets out to his students.
It was a sunny afternoon in April when Professor Delbert was with his class explaining about a poisonous plant that had the properties to cause severe manic depression and death in human beings. In the middle of the session, he found his thoughts drifting towards a disturbing, dark alley.
He abruptly stopped his lecture and stood completely silent for a while. An air of melancholy clouded his mind as his countenance changed to that of a man who had witnessed the doomsday befell upon humanity right in front of his eyes.
‘What do you truly seek?' inquired the professor with a loud tone as he narrowed his eyes and leaned forward towards the students expressing his inquisitiveness.
The instantaneous change in the professor’s manner of speech and countenance alarmed the students of the Castaspel Institute of Technology & Think Academy.
‘Please don't be intimidated, students,' pleaded the professor. 'I've been speaking to some university members about invisible patterns all around us and requesting them to be a part of my enlightening process. For reasons unclear to me, they seem to expostulate. They find it juvenile to believe that there is any conspiracy being hatched by this universe against humankind. This is what I would be discussing with you all.
When I looked at u for the first time,
Damn it was truly a magical moment and everything started to rhyme.
Never saw a girl so pretty,
Kind,lively and a personality so witty.
Took my breath away your million dollar smile,
Many would've been reported dead if u just blushed for a while.
You're like a beautiful rose,
My love for u isn't a pose.
If u were a song I'd listen to it on repeat,
I can't survive without u cuz u being the heartbeat.
If I'm the Sun then you're the ray,
If I'm in pain then you're the relief spray.
I wish to take u to heaven and make the angels there jealous by your presence,
I can't imagine my life in your absence.
I wish to take u into the depths of the oceans and explore the underwater world,
If you're the book then I'm a nerd.
I know that we had some misunderstandings in the past,
But I promise that it would be the last.
The last time I'd apologise,
Cuz after that never again gonna give u the chance to compromise.
I'd climb every mountain and swim every sea,
Just to make u smile,no one could love u more than me.
You're a precious gift from god to me all except are lies,
My love for u is even beyond the skies.

THE GUTS TO BE ALONE WITH YOU
Lonely day.
Naught beyond thought.
A secluded critter,
merely talking to the inner self.
I can barely figure out
my own feelings.
The day seems longer.
Regardless of aught I do or say,
things remain unshaken.
Life passes by and time
slips through the fingers
as a trickle of a stream.
The mind wanders and imagines
in a blow, how life can have a sweet taste.
I hear the speed of the wind,
I stop and breathe. I sit to see whatever
the sight may reach. I smell the garden's balm.
The enchanting spring blossom flourishes.
I grab this unique chance of solitude. I dive deep inside and discover the greatness of being
in touch with all one's nature. The twilight came,
and I don´t want to go back. Wherever it take me,
there are no ends into nothingness.

#review #Abhijit #poem
It was all dark and white
Burning my eyes and soul
It was the dismissal of my existence
In the face of life by all
The Sun rises and sets
The day goes by
But the hollowness inside me
Eats me alive
It feels as if I see a murderer
Whenever I see in the mirror
I am the one who ruined my life
Others are only the executioners
I have no one to talk
Not even to myself
Because I know the weight of truth
The truth that buries you alive
I have tightened the knot around my neck
I am about to leave the Chair
Its ends here, this poem is my life’s memoir
Good bye.

I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
That day when you said
He's no more
Why was I so calm
That I almost felt
Awkward
To be not crying
And I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
When you hugged me tight
Thinking of my pain
Crying in grief
And I was weirdly
Chill
And I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
When I was all around
Distressed souls
Crying for a lost soul
And I was wandering around
Craving for a few snacks
And I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
When I watered the path
Around the body
And walked around
The path of confusion
And I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
When I set the fire
To the body
And Everyone said their
Last goodbyes
But I still tried
To make my eyes wet
While confused as
To stand close or far
From the scorching heat
And I asked myself
A question
Why I didn't cry
When I faked to stand
A little longer
Kept trying to force those tears
Out of my eyes
But they still won't come
And I still won't move
And I asked myself
Was there no love
Among all those years
Or was there no emotion
In those memories
I still talk about
Or was I shocked that damn hard?
That it made me numb
