Going Home

Heading home is likePlunging into a pool of memoriesThe old photos, the dusty bike,Makes one smile, unwittingly As a child,I bet I was very wildI sat in my crib, laughingParading my toothless grin, flailingChubby arms, spilling food everywhereLike a sprinkler, targets anywhere My first prom is forever framed,In a golden, rosette border, somewhere far awaySparkling

Team Commonwealth, United We Stand

United we standHand in handOn concrete new found land.In friendship we will beTeam commonwealth, let us take the lead! Wave your flags in the sky,Let it soar up high.Let the sun’s rays paint it golden,Let your best wishes be spoken.Weaved by the gentle wind of the morningInto these flags are the tomorrows we are hoping.With

The Cell Phone

Pitter patter,Don’t look out of the window, childThe world has gone wild.For that isn’t the sound of rain.Those are fingers sprinting on the fast lane.It is not in a stadium.The lane is on the cell phone screen.No victor on the podium,It’s just a bunch of texting teens.I must warn you before I proceed.That child, the

Winter’s History

When the Snow Queen decides to turn her wristTo take a peek at her watchShe exclaims ‘It’s time’, and gently releaseThe light mist, cascading a slow and chilly freezeThe auburn Earth decked with frothy frostThen, the blooms of snow come waltzing downAll the way downstairs, right from heaven to townLike it’s raining dandelion seedsPure, jolly

Girls

I saw upon the television, a 7 year-old girlDonning a puffy lilac dress with voluminous curlsHer innocent eyes may speak a thousand wordsBut those that drip from her mouth are far worse“Granny says, in life as long as you get a good manThen you are definitely in good hands.”My blood boils as hot as the

Of The Seven Deadly Sins- -Greed

The piercing, glimmeringDrop of lust, gingerly dangling,From the corner of smoky eyes,It paints the snow-hued sclera nitty-gritty green,With envy, with something more than theGold strewn across a jewel studded desk.They pile up, barely enough to feed the hungerWithin, it morphs into a surmount of anger,Of something sinking its teeth into soft tender flesh,The scorching, excruciating

Sarcasm That Killed

The rotten eggs thrown in my showThe boos and the spits land on my faceTo see my hard work, my spirit and soulTo be spat upon, is a nasty taste. As if this was not enough,I was made to stand, and to be laughed.However, there’s something twice as bad.Sarcasm that is, by far the worst

Welcome To My Life

Welcome to my life,The life of an ugly girl.Filled with bitterness and strife,And how you’ll never be valued as a pearl. You are the devil child,With a face of moles, and heart so wild.You are just way too loud,You don’t fit in, so please get out. You aren’t local, stay away from us.Please shut your

Candy

Candy,The velvet sweetness,Of sugarcane fibre that’s full of richness.Be wary though,Too much candy can hurt you thorough. Candy,The devil’s mallet,The cause of the hole in your wallet.Candies are dangerous,Try at your own risk. Don’t say I never warned youYou were to obstinate to be warnedIf you’re not wary,You’ll be sorry.

The Grand Confusion

Do you define it as courage?Or is it a kind of outrageSparking off the blood-hued flaresIgniting all particles of wrath present in the airCurses etched on the strips of little paperNailed into the cloth flesh of gnarled voodoo peopleAs the fire nibbles it up, leaving the edges grilled and charred.Or does it spread a smile

ġham tumhārā thā zindagī goyā tum ko khoyā use nahīñ khoyā fart-e-girya se jī na halkā ho bas yahī soch kar nahīñ royā ashk to ashk haiñ sharāb se bhī maiñ ne ye dāġh-e-dil nahīñ dhoyā maiñ vo kisht-e-nashāt kyoñ kāTūñ jis ko maiñ ne kabhī nahīñ boyā aabla aabla thī jaañ phir bhī bār-e-hastī

janam kā andhā jo soch aur sach ke rāstoñ par kabhī kabhī koī ḳhvāb dekhe to ḳhvāb meñ bhī azaab dekhe ye shāhrāh-e-hayat jis par hazār-hā qāfile ravāñ haiñ sabhī kī āñkheñ har ek kā dil sabhī ke raste sabhī kī manzil isī hujūm-e-kashāñ-kashāñ meñ tamām chehroñ kī dāstāñ meñ na naam merā na zaat
