Death and the Beast

Under the starless night,
The child in red
Clings on to the Wolf's neck
Her eyes bluer than sapphires
The gaze, it pierces
Naked skin, shivers with fear
The tiny hand grips
The Wolf's fur,
Silver mane, it's dazzling shine
Under the moon's white light
The child that tames the beast
Is she the end?
The end of life
For everything that stands alive?
She is, she is death
Death that tames the beast

Free Bird

Here is a piece I composed (on 12th Dec. 2012). I'm really proud of it.

 

 

Birds in this cage

Birds in this cage

With heads bent low

And wings that never tasted breeze

Starved of flight, starved of life

Too deeply chained in fears to know

They lived in a cage without a door



One bird cries

Raise your heads, oh brothers

We are all gathered here today

There is freedom on the other side

With eternal, free and limitless skies

We can flap our wings

To freedom, to glory and to victory

Masters of our own fate

Just step out through this gate

Don't hesitate

A journey towards the divine heavens

A flight to the mighty arms of freedom

A flight towards home



Fool, cried the rest in unison

You have no home save for this cage

Your untrained wings mean a steady drop

To your end, to the end

The sky so far, we cannot reach

And where will you find crumbs to eat?

What more is there left to preach?

Now keep silent, you deluded bird

Your silly dreams are too absurd



I feel sorry for you, my enslaved brothers

Your lives are confined to this cage

While eternal skies wait for me

You're afraid to fall while I believe

I see things you cannot see

As I step out and take flight

A flight to the mighty arms of freedom

A flight towards home



I am the free bird

I will wait for you
On the other side...

Remembering Home

Newest poem... Composed on December, 10th 2012.

Home
Beautiful home
Ages past, wrinkles formed
I craved to enter thy threshold
To breathe the childhood air
Fly high on fumes of nostalgia
Remembering home

Now what hast thou become?
A skeletal frame, rotting
And thy walls echo with haunting cackles
Dry, cold and terrifying
No more the warmth, no familiarity
Are these thy halls where once ...
This child's feet skipped?
Are these the corners
Once full of innocent laughter
Pouring in like sunshine?

Forgotten
Not mine
A home
Once I knew you, now no more
Goodbye, I loved you.

Dreamland, Stars and the Roar of Poseidon

Let's close our eyes a while
Awaken in a desert dreamland
Dancing our feet on shaking ground

Sky above us spinning around
See us, see us alive
Stranded all alone
But together for life

We see the starless sky hanging above
Lets blot white stars on black canvas
And light up our crystal dark heavens
See the stars in soulful romance
Winking from the sky, for you and I

Where the sun meets the sea
Rippling waters hit the shore
The roar of mighty Poseidon
And I'm stumbling to the door
Time to hold my breath, time to go below
Time to go below

Soul leaves the vessel for promises stronger
Leaves me an empty shell left all alone
Slip my consciousness in objects mighty gold
I am shapeless, left for you to mould
Make me, shape me to your desire
I am yours, only yours; not my own...

Haze

Written for someone very special.. Last line inspired and somewhat copied from the song "Crystal Ship" by The Doors.

Million stars, an only Sun
The dream of life has just begun
A constant battle, in the mind, of choices
Between brightest souls of two heavens
Two glorious heavens

Lets wrap ourselves in this haze
Take a ride far far away
Oh we can fly without wings
Girl hold my hand, let me take you
To the promised land

The wind beneath my wings
Taste of youth on my lips
And dead feet find life
Dry heart so fresh and alive
The Circle lies complete

Now lets close our eyes
Get washed away by the night
Dazzling dreams of blooming divinity
You soul of God, fresh rose of Holy Gardens
A mighty moment of bliss
In your kiss, in your kiss

The Lord of All Things

 Two months since my last post. I just had nothing creative and sensible to write about. I read a bit of Jim Morrison's poetry to get the creative juice flowing.

 


Fading away
A low whisper
A fearful gaze
A price to pay
A connection broken
A truth untold
A love unclaimed
A dream not lived
A promise not kept
A girl violated
A fatherless child
Bomb a place
And rubble lies
Eat me, eat me
With your cold, cruel eyes
But this is the end
The end of all lies
Give birth to hope
To love
To passion
To dreams
To freedom
Leave the ground
For the endless sky above
High above
Up above
Where lives the Lord of All Things...


"Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly" 
- Jim Morrison

Dead Man's Song

I see this poem as a man's plunge to death and his frustration at being unresponsive and lonely.
How you guys see it, depends upon you...

                                                            Inspired by this picture

Broken glass, stalking shadow
A dream of life gone with the wind
The mother's hands have picked you up
Now sleep tight my only friend
Dream, dream,
Dream of a dreamless dream
Close your eyes, keep still forever
Sleep my child, don't wake up yet
What's to fear when night is near
When sleep will stop your pain and tears
Hear the emptiness of silent music playing in your ears
Can't speak the words not spoken before; again
Shadows that surround you, can they be filled with light?
Wish those words would come out right
If someone's there who'd listen...
