Perfect Stillness

By -

It takes more than a brave man to confess 

To those old happenings that have left him

Lost in the solace of perfect stillness


He was that person who scoffed at distress 

And was ruled by the cruel caress of whim,

It takes more than a brave man to confess.


Sacrifice on the alter of success 

Everything but the small stones that skim

Beyond the solace of perfect stillness.


And of the men that came to save us

Their faith was fading and wearing thin

They were not the men who could confess.


But they will march on nevertheless

And lose our prayers and desperate hymns 

All the solace of perfect stillness.


There are no gods or divine to bless

The parents and lovers who will miss him.

It takes more than a brave man to confess

Lost in the solace of perfect stillness.

All the stuffed toys looking at me Wondering are you the same who you used to be?  Giggling behind my back and cuddling me again at lonely nights Innocent me, unaware of everything used to feel delight The spilled ketchup on the table drooling down drop by drop Just like my heart, which was bleeding when I was singing in pain on the rooftop They were right, change is a necessary evil But I didn't know that would attract so many devils My experiences kept getting piled up like books in a bookshelf And when I opened them up, there was so much to learn from myself At the end you've to wrap yourself in a blanket under the tree Until it blesses you with some leaves which falls on your shoulder to set you free.              ~🅢🅗🅞🅤🅡🅨🅐 🅢🅤🅖🅛🅐

Apology to Nature

By -
O' Mother Nature, I speak on behalf of the people I didn't know that the consequences would be lethal. O' how sorry I am For constructing that dam. I'm sorry for cutting that tree For having done this for free. I cared for you the least And now you consider me a beast. I'm sorry for all the pollution But now I'm searching for a solution. For I know, I have lost your trust But I also know, gaining it back is a must. I'll try in the future To bring back every little creature. No matter what it takes I'll correct all my mistakes.

Tear produced a fear

By -
It was just a tear  But so strong that I can hardly breathe any air Things in front of my eyes, I've been practicing them since I was a kid But when it's time for the action I have to stay away from it   All the dreams are crumbling for the second time in front of my eyes Now I can only see them from a distance and deep inside my heart cries These things have always been the major part of my entire life  Now the situation seperating me from them is continuously stabbing me with a knife  I wish whenever there will be a complete comeback it'll not be too late  That day I'll reply to those who used to underestimate...                                                     -Shourya Sugla
