Black Rose

Wishes that make me
Come around that boulevard
Where lay my
condemned silence
In isolation,

I
care for my insecurity
And merge with the
Anonymity of this world.

I kill the dreams
That were yet to born
And then the innocence
dies a virgin
Along with them.

Never too special
What I can offer ,
I soliloquy,
So I remain as no one.
And see my
Passion urging,
Aching for recognition.

I object any atonement
And
The square around me
Shrinks in rage against the
Lonesome owner.

Then,

The black rose
Loses its petals
on a dark moon night!

Got the breath whooshed out, esp at the ending...!

You've articulated pain here, thru' the silence of an undiscovered innocence, unacknowledged self, and burgeoning desires that never came to be!!

Utterly fascinating is the thought process behind it, and the culmination of the awesome metaphor that impinges, darkly in the mind...a black rose, and the dark moon night..

Hats Off, Dear Philo'
You've hit all the right notes and produced some intense dark music here!

Awed!!!

This haunted me....throughout.
I dunno why.

Soliloquy - is beautiful when you dont want your voice to be heard, and cuts like a knife when you know its happening to you and you cant do anything about it.

Dark symphony - melody on a dark lonely night.

You travel - Through unknown stations, passing empty paddy fields. over quiet rivers that rest beneath you. You bring a lot of earth along, And smell of mud, fish scales and trains.  You whisper and scream, Put your nails in me, occasionally call it love. Other nights, we make peace. Strangely at dawn, When the Sun rises and you see me sleeping,  I hear your whisper,  you travel ...   ... Deep inside me.

Together

I sit here to write An epic of love But words don't pay heed To my flowing senses. But what I write is about you. Who held the rain at her footsteps, Who could love the way Gothics shy And who can heal my scars Like I never had. And what I write is about me. Who drenched in the rain Like the raindrops, Who was loved the way He dreamt never. And who cried in the happiness beyond. So if ever the rain stops I would stand near you. If ever the scars anew I would feel your healing touch. If ever I don't sleep I would breathe you to sanity. On that rain soaked sands of Seashore And above the presence of lonesome moon, You would murmur the gentle song That I would echo in silence. And would pray, Somewhere,tiptoeing my wishes Dreams will rush up To another moment of blissful song offerings... SoUmY@

Wish I could be a cloud one day I will love to be grey if its you To whom, through whom I traverse. Transparency is optimum; For I know you are unattainable like the sand escaping from the fist like the meaning assumed from the gist. look, oh yes, I can rhyme too. If you wish I can artify our world. Inspiration never needs a permit. You had asked, Why do I vomit blood. Interruptions in dreamy un-realism doesn't suit me. I know. So I write. So that I can breathe you in and breathe dreams out. Live long, you had wished. (Wished), did you? honestly? I will let it pass like just another Failed attempt to face reality Finds itself en-route to contamination. Oh! then what is pure? you may ask. Purity is not you, not me, but us. Purity is the way verses traverse. I will vomit to death one day. Do not pray for me. Pray for my poems who are quiet. Let them borrow my breaths. Let the poetry for us live. (And the footnotes conclude:) You - a miser in love Me - a happy lender. SoUmy@
