I’m trapped inside my head


At first there wasn't a sound, or its trace.
It seemed to me like a silent place.
Then a wise voice spoke;
Something sleepy it awoke.
 

We used to talk for an hour or two.
Then it was time to bid adieu.
Our conversations slowly became longer;
My desire to listen became stronger.
 

Soon the speakers were three.
My imaginations were now running free.
Then it seemed and there was no doubt;
In my head, there was a crowd.
 

I speak so much without a word.
But all of it the crowd has heard.
Outside I feel, I fail to communicate;
And here they discuss my ideas and appreciate.
 

Yet there is this need to speak out.
Voice my words and voice them loud.
I think, I’ll write them down and have them read;
Because I’m trapped inside my head!

Children of the Dark

 Feeding the minds, The innocent minds, Their toxic thoughts To turn them dark. Their poison dipped words And venoms combine, Turn their minds Turn them dark. They are gibberish grandiose; Striking a pose, Spoken in a voice so very deep; Children of the dark fear and weep. Fear my Children, Fear the Dark Lords, They come dressed in light; The light's a cloak. Black is their colour, they are colouring your soul. Biting through your flesh, Turning you cold. Fear my Children, Fear the Dark Lords, They will feast on your flesh, And crush your soul.

The Hunting Hounds

It’s been days since I hid in this remote village. It will be very difficult for them to find me here. The hills surround this village from all directions; people here seldom have any visitors from outside. By that I mean, the last to come was an old man, returning to his birthplace and that was 6 years ago. Natives of this village are friendly and content. This population does not dream of wandering off to bigger cities or towns, they like it here. I cannot tell you the exact location but that’s only to my advantage. Today, the weather reminds me of that dreaded day, when I was being chased by those flesh-hungry dogs. I couldn’t remember who sent them but they were definitely hunting me. They were huge hunters. I have never seen any such before with big and sharp teeth that were ready to dig into my flesh and break my bones into pieces. Their loud bark still wakes me up at night. Salivating, chasing me, and locating me in all my hideouts by following my scent. I am unable to forget

The Moon

There’s a Moon above my head and it shines so bright. I stare in amazement and curiosity and delight. I have questions to ask; and I think I might. But when I try to ask, he bids me goodnight. There’s a Moon above my head and it shines so bright. I say, “Mr. Moon, being snooty is not right!” He smiles down at me, for he is polite. He says, “Dear girl, don’t judge me, alright! I have to fight the darkness to shine so bright.” “Oh Moon above my head! Can you sing me a song?” “Because, night is here and far away is the dawn.” So, Moon sings to me, the song of the Sun. The one who lives with desires, but none. There’s a Moon above my head and all his brightness fades. I ask him, “Why?” He says, “Dark shadows invade.” “Slowly each day, by piece I am torn. Only the Sun puts me together and I am reborn.” “Oh Moon above my head! Does the Sun possess all might?” “Dear little one”, he says, “He is the most generous and bright.” “He is a humble giv
