the street adolescent

t

He is an adolescent Out of home he was sent, Life for him is a blunder, Deprived of father’s love tender, Clothes, ragged and torn, Health in body worn,Split mind has streaks of sanity,Numbed soul, blurred spirituality,Pride inborn swells with fortune,But street adolescent cheers misfortune. His mind has a vacuum, Allowing evil to enter in, He utters, “I am great, Because of tasks done...

HOME IN HELL

H

A house disordered, The members battered, In minds confused, In speeches slittered, In sight littered, The plight tethered, To a view vandalized. Pitch rise to a high decibel, Speeches screeched to a pinnacle, Defying concentration. Deriding laughter bleeds, The mind of feelings lead, To a loophole called hell, Where evil forces dwell. A home riding to a hell, Converges restlessness, ill feelings...

derangement

d

Pent up emotions flow, Through the words they show, Spiteful anger resents, Thoughts are but to dissent, Minds in emotional heat, Never has understanding meet, No wealth or health can grow, In a house, its members prone, To disinterested actions in a row, Nagging subversive anger fumes, Perverted actions are in tune, To negation, a goal unseen. Minds of children are at stake, When family is an...

GOODBYE CHILDHOOD!

G

Desperate childhood! You cannot chide me, You are dead, In the grave of time. Sunken childhood! You cannot touch me, You have drowned, Into the bygone. Desolate childhood! You cannot bog me, You are a void, Toying with darkness. Tyrant childhood! Bitter and barren, A concatenation of mockery, Myself on verge of jeopardy. You were a ravaging fear, I fear the thought of you near, You were the...

Water

W

The silky saline water of the seas,Gets into the fishy groves in earth,Filling cavities, forming the beauty store,Lashing the shore, forming a shapely surf. Nature’s gift the water is,In body of beings, it is blood,From the grey clouds it is shedAs water to which we are chained,When ice melts, it is drained,During floods, death is rained. Water is an omnipotent force,Gliding and streaming into...
