Pain........

(c) Shilpa Sandesh

Pain.......
Like walking upon,
The path,
Sheathed by thousands of burning embers,
When the walk halts,
In the middle of the path,
And the frame melts,
Till the body itself becomes it's part

 Pain........
Born, pampered,
A step on the sword,
Bruised and bled,
And now, hanging amidst,
Integrity and Love

 Pain.......
The sudden shower,
Of abundance of adoration,
Passion I never knew,
When happiness knew no bounds,
The sudden blow,
My body pierced,
By the uninvited arrow

 Pain........
Sobs know no bounds,
Tears are tired too,
Dried upon my cheeks,
What am I now to you?

 Pain........
A bird flying in the widespread sky,
Joyous as it approaches
Its long sought destination,
And the huntsman called fate,
Shoots the bird down,
It's not dead, it just lost it's wings,
Be happy bird, you're still breathing
What else do you want for life!
You are still breathing!

 Pain........
A blank page,
Scribbled upon,
Crumpled, torn,
And thrown,
Caught by the wind,
And to the lands of love,
It was blown,
Till it flew over the sea,
And a wave washed it away,
To the depths unseen

 Pain........
My fingers ache,
But heart doesn't stop,
As love,
Is an ever burning flame,
Oh but,
This pain........

The Feet in Blood !

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Her gaze is set, At the wide spread ahead, Lights glimmer, Racing motors on the road, And noises undefined, From far away; But no landscape can collate, With the bruised patches, in her heart; No motors are at par, With the speed of her hastening thoughts, And no clangor as loud, As the shrieks of her caged soul; Blaming is like, Plucking the petals,  of a blossoming flower, To take the blames, Is like being pushed, To walk bare foot on thorns; It's a puzzle, it's a jumble, Her inner self is, Disarrayed, cluttered,  It's a muddle; Those moments are no more, When she was, Besotting to his eyes; When her tears made his eyes wet, When seeing her in pain, His heart ached; She is a reflection, Of the fate's rebound, In the broken mirror; She walks, On the scattered glasses, And Oh! My feet are in blood!

A Puppet

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Born a free soul, With wings to fly, Bound she stands, Entwined in compromises Tethered are her hands with the strings of liabilities, Muddled are her steps, in the lashes of limits and boundaries; She loved once , with all her heart, The tenderness and fondness, that's doomed today; She smiles when she's sad, And cries when happy; The tiny wonder, Is her sole sustenance, All that she has won, as the fruit of love; An emotional fool, And destiny's blunder, She calls herself, The hell's wonder; She craves for that warmth, that unconditional love, A whim for those vows, a desire for that embrace, And, In the hands of time, A puppet she is, In the fate's haze!

My Brave Knight

(c) Shilpa Sandesh Handsome and pleasing, Like some prince, In a lore, A striking sight, He's my brave knight; Sanguine and certain, Commanding and sturdy, furious yet calm, Like the glistening sun, And the stars so bright, He's my brave knight; A warm embrace, A gentle heart, Resolute and steadfast, Aiming the dart, With a scrupulous sight, He's my brave knight; Audacious and fearless, Valiant in the stormy winds, And the winter's chill, The searing sun, Or the rainy nights, He dauntlessly steps forth, Heroic he is, He's my brave knight.
