Poet Introduction
Words are a power that has wings—when they form poetry, they concoct dreams. So much can be said in so few words—human emotions unfurl in streams. As the weaver of words that invoke the soul, let us journey together in the life that unfolds.

Are you Happy with me?
I aim to be the man,
Igniting a spark in your heart's span.
You illuminate joy,
A sweet delight, a life alloy.
In strife, I bear the pain,
Yet, a smile I earnestly attain.
Through darkness and tearful cries,
I light your life, a shared prize.
If your happiness is my art,
Contentment blooms in my heart.
For you are my love, my dove,
Building my world around your love.
Wealth, fame, and fleeting youth,
Transient as whispers, here and uncouth.
I desire to be the...

Tears in heaven: I cheated on you
I cheated on you
But can’t tell you why
You knew it all along
But waited for us to die
You were cold
Unreasonably bold
U cared none
For you it was done
But here is the sad part
in all this
I cheated to break
With nothing left to give
You were cold
Unreasonably bold
U cared none
For you it was done
My love was absolute
You did not care
You were aloof ...
But can’t tell you why
You knew it all along
But waited for us to die
You were cold
Unreasonably bold
U cared none
For you it was done
But here is the sad part
in all this
I cheated to break
With nothing left to give
You were cold
Unreasonably bold
U cared none
For you it was done
My love was absolute
You did not care
You were aloof ...

Breakup
Every time we argue,
you threaten to walk away,
dangling the threat
with a dose of emotional fray.
One day, I'll just depart,
silently, without much talk.
No more blackmail or despair,
just the freedom of my lone sail.

Impossible Relationships
Life if a moment in time
In the cosmic realm of universe
While we do not understand it all
We search for us in others so we can survive
Impossible relationships blossom
With its infractions and scars on our heart
We pursue relentlessly till the end
Accepting reality is a lost art

While we do not understand it all
We search for us in others so we can survive
Impossible relationships blossom
With its infractions and scars on our heart

Blood Sucking Vampire
Every dream of mine
Was my love child,
With hopes of growing up,
And a beautiful smile.
But I devoured them all,
Sucking their lifeblood,
In neglect, callousness,
I slaughtered them in the end.
With a bloodied mouth,
Now I wander alone,
Amidst their wailing ghosts,
Like a vampire, I stroll.

Amidst their wailing ghosts,
Like a vampire, I stroll.

Damn It: It is a f**king Quandary
Lost in this damn sea of uncertainty,
Damn trying to figure out what the hell I should do.
Am I just a damn animal, eatin', sleepin', screwin' around,
Or is there some fancier damn shit I'm supposed to damn well pursue?
Is this all a damn illusion, thinking I'm better,
Like I'm some hotshot above other damn creatures?
Would it be easier if my damn brain was dull,
The damn outcome of my existence no different than other damn creatures too.

Game of Life
Life, a ceaseless strife,
A game that we must play,
Where victory and loss,
In players' hands, will sway.
Boundaries close, they weave,
As challenges unfold,
We leap and strive, believe,
In time and space, our mold.
A game that we must play,
Where victory and loss,
In players' hands, will sway.

Sands of Time
In the palm of my hand, a fleeting moment I cradle,
Yet it escapes, slipping away like grains of sand.
Repeatedly, I attempt to secure its grasp,
Only to watch it elude me, much to my chagrin.
Yearning for life to be a canvas of my own creation,
Where I could meticulously sketch my narrative,
To revisit and relive each stroke and hue,
Encased in a splendid golden frame, a masterpiece of my own
Yet it escapes, slipping away like grains of sand.
Repeatedly, I attempt to secure its grasp,
Only to watch it elude me, much to my chagrin.
Yearning for life to be a canvas of my own creation,
Where I could meticulously sketch my narrative,
To revisit and relive each stroke and hue,
Encased in a splendid golden frame, a masterpiece of my own

You Love Me, But It's Time to Part
You professed love through the years, my dear,
Yet doubts lingered, a silent torrent of tears.
I clung to your words, entranced by the pledge,
Blind to emotions on love's precarious edge.
Our love, a solitary flame, sought to ignite,
A dance of hearts lost in the shadows of the night.
Your soul's tenderness, elusive as a whispering breeze,
Consideration for my feelings, a fleeting tease.
Embraces shared were fleeting, moments profound,
Yet beneath it all, your pleasure echoed, unbound.
Yearning for reciprocity, a wish cast in vain,...
Yet doubts lingered, a silent torrent of tears.
I clung to your words, entranced by the pledge,
Blind to emotions on love's precarious edge.
Our love, a solitary flame, sought to ignite,
A dance of hearts lost in the shadows of the night.
Your soul's tenderness, elusive as a whispering breeze,
Consideration for my feelings, a fleeting tease.
Embraces shared were fleeting, moments profound,
Yet beneath it all, your pleasure echoed, unbound.
Yearning for reciprocity, a wish cast in vain,...

Sorcerer's Lure
You're a sorcerer, a spell divine,
Casting curses in my mind.
Sweet words flow like a potent potion,
Hypnotic touch, a sublime motion.
In your magic cauldron's dance,
Mixing words in a mystical trance.
Concocting potions, a binding curse,
Yet, I don't despise, nor do I nurse.
Magic vibes in my veins do hum,
Whenever our eyes entwined become.
Lost in your gaze, I'm bound again,
A captive to your enchanting reign.
Casting curses in my mind.
Sweet words flow like a potent potion,
Hypnotic touch, a sublime motion.
In your magic cauldron's dance,
Mixing words in a mystical trance.
Concocting potions, a binding curse,
Yet, I don't despise, nor do I nurse.
Magic vibes in my veins do hum,
Whenever our eyes entwined become.
Lost in your gaze, I'm bound again,
A captive to your enchanting reign.
