Happy & Healthy New Year

Every single moment is a new moment for you & me
Soon 2024 will arrive, leaving behind 2023
May the drops from the past fill the glass with acceptance, love & peace
May the pain in the dark transforms into the stars that guide us to simply be
May the flame of the core fuels the whole to manifest the magical dreams
May the formless soul remains the sole source of the divine eternally
Wishing You A Very Happy & Healthy New Year, Beautiful Being

PLEASE PUT SOUND ON…

I can clearly recall the night when this poem came to me. The sleepless night & restlessness in me with those memories turned into this poem and my night into morning. Creating spoken word of ‘The Mourn Sky’ is another baby-step forward towards letting go & to see a glimpse of love in pain ✨❤️💫

The Mourn Sky

Original poetry, Publications

I’m sharing the second poem that was published in Adelaide Literary Magazine’s No.61 issue, October 2023…l hope you’d enjoy reading – The Mourn Sky ✨🌕💫☀️

The Mourn Sky

I haven’t slept a minute the whole night
Coz I’m stuck with me in this lost fight
The restlessness in me is like a landslide
Reminiscing the scenes with my wet eyes

I know the reality, it’s so black-white
I still dream if the things were otherwise
The longing to kiss the lips at times
The feeling to simply melt when I hold tight

It takes me to this place with warm light
I can’t even speak this moment coz I’ve no voice
So I touch buttons on my screen to flow rhymes
To dissolve the feelings while I see the mourn sky

I know my reality, it’s my own choice
Coz the purpose of me is to give life
To live from the deep is to keep dying
The love grows in me like a beautiful child

I haven’t closed my lids this whole time
But it’s time to wake up is the inner calling
To shed my skin made of wants & desires
But I’m just a human, I too bleed & sigh

Spoken Word Poetry – Trip-Track (YouTube channel)

Original poetry, Spoken Word

Trip-Track is a very special poem to me, that I published on 2nd November 2019. This is what I wrote back then – “Words are simply flowing in me. I feel such a crazy need to scribble this poem. I’m sensing something at subconscious level. I can feel, I’m going to walk on a burning track soon. I don’t know why I feel that. I’m perhaps connected to The Almighty, which is telling me something is coming my way. So better “pack your baggage”.”

On 7th November 2019, my left hand was kinda “sleeping”. First I dropped the car keys & then a plate & later I couldn’t press remote control buttons. I was thinking ‘ok, that’s something new’ – a weird feeling. I contacted acute medical helpline & soon I was rushed to the hospital where I was diagnosed with brain haemorrhage on the right side. It was at this moment I realized why the higher energies made me write Trip-Track & I was like WOW even though I was in OUCH condition.

The bleeding has taken away a few things from me but in return, it has given me the biggest gift, which is to live in the moment & not to worry about the next one – the future. On top, I’m finally able to see & know me. I’m not saying it’s still not challenging for me to live with the critical sickness. But it’s like I had to go through this all to finally wake up from the sleep. Now mindful baby-steps is my leap. Reset button was pressed by the Almighty.

I consider 7th November as my second birth date & that’s why I published my poetry collection – Lightning Rhymes on 07/11/2021. Trip-Track is a part of my book.

My intention isn’t to earn sympathy, that sorry / sad / bad feeling or any of that sort. It’s only a sharing from my heart to yours. I hope you’d enjoy listening to this piece of mine. Thank you very much ✨❤️💫

Inner Flow (published in Adelaide Literary Magazine)

Original poetry, Publications

A wonderful news I’m sharing with you all…just a few days back, I received a mail that the two poems that I submitted to Adelaide Literary Magazine have been published in their No.61 issue, October 2023…gratitude to the magazine for selecting my poems…it’s an honour indeed…I’m sharing one of the two poems…the second one, I’ll share in some time…

I hope you’d enjoy reading my poem – Inner Flow ✨💜💫

Inner Flow

Nothingness could be difficult
Mirror could be painful
Silence isn’t vulnerable
Sitting still isn’t idle
Healing isn’t necessarily joyful
Wisdom isn’t just jawful

Simple is so beautiful
Real isn’t just relatable
Naked is very natural
Nature is living spiritual
Light & dark are magical
Every form is love universal

Scars I don’t hide but expose
Shiny spots visible on my globe
Bleeding repainted me in two strokes
Trusting beat of the single chord
Loving flames of the burning core
Riding waves of this inner flow

Spoken Word Poetry – Flashing Lights (YouTube channel)

Original poetry, Spoken Word

It’s a single take recording of a piece that I wrote in October 2019…this is the longest poem, that I’ve ever written…it’s more of a storytelling – a story of joy, happiness, courage, family pressure, sadness, pain, sacrifice, suffering & trauma and it has come from the seabed of my heart…

Please bear with me as this spoken word is almost 9 min 30 sec long…I know, it’s crazy long; it’s also my very first time…do know that I’m not seeking anything…it’s simply a pure sharing in this open space…

Back in October 2022, Gabriela Marie Milton asked me if I would be interested in submitting a poem for her very first project under her own publishing house, Literary Revelations…I said Yes coz of 2 reasons, even though I had stopped participating in anthologies…I’ve known Gabriela (through WordPress) almost from the very beginning of my poetry journey…she’s a kind hearted person, a very talented writer, a dedicated professional & I have deep respect for her…Secondly, the theme of the anthology – Hidden in Childhood…I felt this poem has found its place…Gabriela was exceptionally kind coz she accepted my poem even though it’s llllonggg…it’s an honour to be published along with several other amazing & talented poets…Hidden in Childhood: A Poetry Anthology is available on Amazon

I hope you’d give your precious time & listen to this spoken word…thank you very much ✨❤️💫

Wrong

Original poetry

I’ve been punched on the face with guilt several times
I’ve been wronged with fingers, lips & those questioning eyes
I even believed what I was told coz I was weak, I won’t deny
But I’ve learnt with time to stand tall & true in low & high tides

It seems everyone’s life has turned pale coz of my dirty screen
As if I’m the only reason of the suffering, pain & the screams
As if it’s me who’s injecting anger with that pointy syringe
As if I’m the one grilling the skin with my charcoaly heat

I was once asked ‘howcome I haven’t learnt anything when I was about to die?’
And why I was still snapping even when my wires were twisted & dire
At that time I felt as if I was the witness of my own bloody trial
Today that picture has changed & I think, I’m able to breathe the inner silence

If people haven’t confronted you before, then everything has its first time
Try to take off those ego-lenses & look closely in the eco-iris, is my advice
Several answers you might find floating freely in that liquid shine
The rest you’d discover gradually when the self will see the very I

I am neither a RoboCop, who arrests nor a Terminator, who shreds
And I accept that I commit mistakes coz I too have a human shade
But I am constantly upgrading me with the only constant while I defrag
But if you still wanna point finger at me, then be my middle finger guest

Note: “you” in this poem doesn’t mean you – the reader
