WHY I STAY

                                         WHY I STAY?



these walls
don't feel home
they are void as a sarcophagus.

the foundations
I could rely upon are faulty.

I could not breathe
I am perishing
The roots exclaimed.

The petals and leaves
Drooling
Breathing in all the dry cold air

The tress
Moult and die

The water
Sits still and stagnant

this
Doesn't feel home?

Silence
feels deeper and deeper
The echoes in the hallway
Wander away

The scent of baked cookies
Lost the scent
of their trail.

All is left
Are shadows
With fear at each corner
so please tell me why I stay?

THE DEATH OF HUMANKIND:PART ONE

                 THE DEATH OF HUMANKIND: PART ONE   Human beings are social creatures. We reciprocate to signals of love and affection.  Perhaps, humanity has lost its way. The dehumanisation of man continues with every passing era. Cynical, isn't it?  The reckless ways that man has used to kill other human beings for his selfish desires begin from ancient times. The selfish and cynical behaviour of humans started from ancient times to the beginning of the twentieth century.  The crucifixion of Jesus Christ was the first act of dehumanisation. In ancient Roman times, the capital punishment given to the slaves and criminals was crucifixion.  He was stripped of his clothes and led to  Golgotha . He was offered a mixture of vinegar, gall and myrrh. The nails used as a useful tool becomes a securing weapon to cause pain and suffering. Perhaps, as time passed new techniques and methods start...

CHILDHOOD DAYS

DAYS OF PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS Remember when we were in our days of childhood ? Laughing, playing, living as if there is no end to our happiness. I miss my childhood, miss the way I took pleasure even when greater things crumbled.  I could not control the circumstances and how to dwell with them.  I could not run from the world I was living in but took joy in things that made me happy. As time passes by, we start living in a world full of critics and quirks. Childhood is living in a fairy tale, playing in the sun; not living a nightmare. This fairy tale we live in soon becomes a nightmare. Everything becomes apocalyptic. It gives us an insight into what we want in our lives and what we aspire to do.  It gives us the worst scars and exhilarating moments. It's a fascinating place.  Old enough to feel truly adult, old enough to make decisions that affect the rest of our lives, old enough to take responsibilities, old enough to fall in love and hea...

Caged

CAGED Society full of animation Threw me again now, I am just the blood that stains my pillowcases (apology) what pleasant delights will grace this presence? dried, desiccated heart coated with frostiness and chill in November. abandoned I will remain under the withered skin. just like the keratin debris present under the fingernails. my feet and hands numb As muscle dysfunction begins to function my pounding, spongy brain still trying to perceive the day's madness. sputtering psychosis scrubbing my neurotic soul all's that left is silence unnoticed In the echoes Of the vibrations Sent by the world. all that's alive is the base camp quiet with paracetamol lingering.                                                                                 ...
