I need friend
To spend these empty days of mine
Where I talk to myself
And try to make myself happy

To have a coffee
To drink a little bit
To take a walk
To give a hug

The universe wants me cold
As I live this solitary life.

Immortality
I can't close my eyes
tears gather.
I can't breathe
the air is stuck.
I can't gulp
my throat is tight.

I try to plant my dream,
but land is
barren

Still, I try.
Even my conscience
mocks me.
It’s that moment when giving up feels easier, everything is against you;
but you can’t, because giving up just isn’t you.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A happy face I saw– unknown,
yet it felt so familiar,
like someone I have known,
That smile, that face,
why can't I forget?

Were you for real,
or just a dream
my waking eyes
happened to see?
Translation of my Hindi poem–एक चेहरा.

the magic of vegetables
colours of the rainbow
- time lapse growth
a slow decline to eternity
skin deep love of self
love of Jesus
love of others
a life laid down
a life well lived
the magic of vegetables
colours of the rainbow
time lapse growth.

the great sagging
pulled down into the grave


a story written in skin
a story chiselled in stone

today is a cut the grass day
a sunshine vista
blue sea blue sky
the scent of cut green
a ride on the mower.

the road narrows
round a corner
out of sight

but thats ok
travelled that experience
before

a bird sings
the present moment
beautiful

sometimes an 'ALLELUIA'
bursts forth
set free
from
your heart

depth is forged and hammered on the anvil
sometimes your the anvil
sometimes the hammer
leaving you in new depths of understanding
a new glint of steel in your soul
