Silence

Silence...
No sound anywhere
Calmness and tranquility surrounds me
Silence, my new friend...
Silence, I call my own

Silence...
No one can be seen
Till miles away
Only a light breeze over my hair
Silence, my new home
Silence, my life

Silence,
I would sacrifice  anything for you
Like I've been doing each day
To be nearer to you
Silence is all i want
Silence is all i need

A Soldier's Prayer

A solider
Defeated in the war
Caught and captivated
In the enemy's camp
Quietly with a tearful eye
He thinks about his lover
Remembers her laugh
And everything else
Attached with her
Each moment that is passed
He dreams about his escape
But deep in his heart
He knows he is doomed
He wants to escape
And be in the arms of his lover
But he knows he cant
He dies a little more inside
The thought of him
Being away from his lover
Rips his heart apart
Tortured by the enemies
He is all bruised
All his joint hurts
Because of the enemy's sticks
One gloomy night
While lost in his thoughts
About his lover
And dreaming of his escape
The enemy quietly enters his cell
And shoots a bullet
That pierces his heart

Haunted Dream

One frosty morning
Someone knocked the front door
I wondered who could it be
Through the curtain I went up to see
A strange figure
Shivering in a distance
That was only visible
From my window
In a dilemma i was
If i should open the door
And let the stranger in
For a warm cup of tea
I was scared
To let a stranger
Enter my house
As it could be anyone
I walked towards the door
To lock it
So that the strange figure
Stops haunting me
I tried to lock it
But I was not able to
From the window
I could see
That strange figure
Coming towards me
Paralyzed with fear,
I collapsed on the floor
Few hours later
When I woke up,
All this while,
I was just dreaming!!

Life...

The curtains fall
To mark the end of the day
The orange sky after sunset
Indicates that darkness is around
Days goes by
And the nights follow
And long before we realize
How quickly time files
That is strong enough
To change a flower
Into a withered one
Long before we know
The chapters of our life fold
We are on the last few pages
Not really knowing
Which one carries the end
One fine day,
When no one realizes
We bid a goodbye
To those who have been with us
And  to earth
Forever and ever......
