How

Build                         Break
Me

&
Love me
At the same time?

Words may be a hindrance
Forming hard crust over feelings
You wanted to convey
At the core of those words
The true meaning is lost forever
At times, when words don’t suffice
Pure and raw feelings are more potent
There are many miles traversed
Between the feelings and the words
Somewhere, the line is drawn inadvertently
Hurdles imaginary are the toughest ones
Endless numbers of words do not right
The wrongs meted out to the true feelings
Heart will wither away, if not revived
At the avenue where words are shunned
It’s where hearts shall meet, without prejudice
Not weighed down by the frills of words
Life is embellished with silence
When hearts do the talking, sans the words

does my horror know no ending?
will this holocaustic-cloak-rending
ever cease from trending?

to what sin of a people
could these bitter,
evil deeds
be attributed!

it is times like this  
i lose my faith,
my trust,
that deep inside
we are all the same.

never!
and be it far
from me,
this pain,
this darkness
perpetrated.
i am not like you!

oh Israel,
i can only offer you
my love,
my sorrow,
my tears,
my hope
for change
tomorrow!

dear friend,
today,
i am not Charlie,
i am not Danish...

today
i am
JEW!!
