Story or Desire

Some stories are strange.
Absolutely complete despite not meeting their fate.
Stories which started from the middle of Whirlpool and got stuck somewhere. Stories with their end moving in the opposite direction, are in search of a common arrow.

People who think for others beyond themselves... Possess the destiny of often losing their own self.... the definite destiny.
People having high dreams, who ever wanted a lot from life. Life gives them everything but in a ruthless transaction it snatches that one small heartily desire secretly from small estate, ultimately equalising the deal.

Characters like such will get lost in the mist somewhere far away.... In just 3-4 years. When for the time are flying, vagabond, alluvial clouds stayed ? They will find a place to shower their empathy.

The day when accumulated capital of emotions, memories, the binded way will become unbearable...
When the heart will get tired by frequent acts of being rebel.
That day , on an unknown level it will rain to compromise with that sole desire left to be fulfilled.
That day ,the real personality must die in the game hosted by the nature.

Those murmuring clouds , somewhere far away must have permeated the earth with their drops getting bound but devotedly.

But that story???
What about that....???
Stories will remain imprisoned for centuries in that vortex...
Waiting for the clouds which will never return.
Clouds which got settled somewhere else...
Forever and ever....

Those Stains

Those Stains

Trapped in the pages of time, a mildly withering lover, whose screams can never be blown out from the heart, he is always looking in a very distraught manner towards his lover while decorating the bundle of thoughts.

In dark as if out of the agony of depression, he flinches even when he says his agony.... People keep distance from me, they say What to write on someone's ruthlessness and stain? What will you gain from this? 
Write on beauty, about someone who owns the lake of beauty..... But had they ever thought of those who are holding those stains, who took the pain of that love... How the questioners here ended their beauty with such ease? ...
Will writing on them dry up their pens?

Every person sprinkles only his coloured pen on the atomizer pages but I worship the black ink and write Those same stains.

Farewell to the Decade.

Slowly, the art of writing is fading inside me....

It is leaving me automatically, so as it came. The process of things leaving me is very old...as if it was written in my destiny. My first girlfriend left me, so as my first friend, all of my half dozens of schools and my first 'second city'. Sometimes I feel that the time of departure of something will just pass, but the destination of this is something not known to me at all... The more we grow, the more trouble seeks our path. However, I am among those who do not believe in struggle. I plead in difficulty and point that I became the weakest person in the world, even after knowing that the world just pities on the weak.

A voice of mine speaking is no longer capable to murmur. The nectar full words of love do only fill the paper with ink.
People hovering here and there are no longer that appealing. Their beautiful face shows the truth behind them...In other words, now I feel disgusted around them. People often tell me that I have a lot of senseless pride, but I am just silent.

Someone who is experiencing the departure of everything also has to experience the agony of this world and no dear one tries to balance him as well.
A dream flows in his eyes...a glow appears on the face when someone kisses his palms and says with so much love that everything will be fine...then no one knows, why his heart gets no reason to not believe in her.

Poetry and its accomplishments

Poetry and its accomplishments


The echo of applause is not the destiny of poetry.
Neither the poet's autograph on palm,
nor thousands of followers on Instagram.
All this can be the achievement of poet, not at all of poetry.

The real appreciation of poetry can be achieved in the form of .....
A long silence ...
A strand of dew in someone's eyes...
A wordless Ahh!
Bite of memory on any old wound....
Or in that hug by an stranger and her departure without any mention of name ,,,,,,

Poetry is the treatment of deep injuries of the Earth...
Poetry is also the favor of language, on her lovers.
