I am no Good !

O Father, Forgive me !
You aided all your wealth
To earn me knowledge and health
When you expected me
To open my feathers & fly
I crouch in the fear to die
I can't even serve my family some food
Because I am no Good !

My Loveliest Mother
You taught me to face all the trails
You imbibed me with strength to walk alone
Let fill the gaps with no support
Yet, when you want me
I am not by your side to change your mood
Because I am no Good !

Dear Brother & sweet Sister
You are my treasures, forever will be
Wish to put all unheralded surprise
Give you both all luxuries you prize
Be the ideal for you
But what investiture I can put ?
Because I am no Good !

I love my family with heart & soul
But being a Black Sheep,
Can't do anymore.
Building the castles, I cannot reside
I am the one to watch the sun,
As its brightness dies
I can only envy them,
Helping their family,as they could
Because I am no Good !

Soul that is Mine !

Its Dark & I can't see the way
I am stuck here, just to sway
Will anyone come to my rescue?
Or am I left for my own do ?

I see the silhouette
But to recognise, my eyes are wet
Catch my hand or are you a passerby ?
I am left alone to sieve my own pry

I try to express, but thoughts don't help
Every word is swallowed in one small gulp
I can see the lamp posts setting off
And the guard naps with occasional hicoughs

I am wandering searching solution for this mystery
As though to mark my history on a tapestry
Questions are numerous, answers to none
Yet creeping to the acme, until its done

I moving to the edges of the endless shore
The sands where wet, not any more
It slips off the hand as passing time
So, before its too late, I shall find
The soul that is Mine !!

Women's Liberation Act

She was sitting at one corner
Staring at her broken toy
Staring at his new car
Wondering if she can ask for the new one
Wondering if she can exchange with him

Behind the window, cowering herself
Seeing him dressed by her mother for school
Wishing to go there some day
But how can she ?
Though elder, not seen the gates
Of school, her brother goes always late

Dreaming higher
But sitting near fire
Cooking, feeding is her life
No time to bead her broken plight
Working in the house of working lady
She is the girl from a penury

Earning though she, can't be exorbitant
Surviving to feed the others need
Killing the desires, continuing her pree
Reasoning the jurisprudence,
why born as 'She' ?

Addiction

Walking alone down the shore
Thinking profound and searching for more
Is it the words or is it my thought
I am solely drowned in the literary tout

Reading the dabsters, learning the art
It has become prior in my usual routine chart
Pensively wondering for verses, lucid
Abstract verbose with flavor so placid

Frame with emotions & pen with sense
Satiating the delight and reader's essence
Drifting passion, lets me keep on rolling
Absorbed in this world, theres no door to returning

Feeling a loss with no kudos
Yet armed again for to repose
Unexpected to expected, always tempts
Experiment is the word defined for attempts

It is a knot, I cant untie
Its one drug, that lets me high
Leaving behind others conviction
Poetry for me is a Blissful Addiction !

Like a Bird

Singing own tune
Perching on trees
Shelter under sky
Play with zephyr

Flying with pride
No rules to abide
Wandering for food
Collecting the twigs

Hovering alone
Facing the storm
Shaping the clouds
Building mounds

No fear, no worry
No one to fury
None to command
Not in remand

Night beclouds
Coming back to nest
Sleeping with family
Taking some rest

Dawn casts the light
Again take the flight
Exploring new horizon
With every sunrise

This is Me
Like a Bird - free

You cannot be mine

Oh, what beautiful night it was
Just you and me
No one to trespass
The feel of yours and your touch was whole
Beyond the meeting of our limbs,
it was meeting of our soul
Lying beside each other until the dawn
When I opened my eyes,
the dream was gone
You cannot be mine,
I know the reality
But the girl in me,
Longs for your proximity !!
