Spoken Word Poetry – The Mourn Sky (YouTube channel)

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

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 – Flashing Lights (YouTube channel)

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

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

Reblogging – This Animal is Back

Don’t walk like this in your silky skin infront of me
Incredible
My craving for you is crawling up a mountain frenzy
Irresistible
You’re looking red hot & my eyes are burning destiny
Inflammable

Gaining your trust while I throw you with my rawness on that turf
Animal
Messing with your mind & body while I pull your messy hair
Animal
Tearing your peace in pieces while I look deep into your big eyes
Animal

Whispering my twisted words in your ears to reach your red crystal
Sensitive
Sketching on you with my sharp nails to make you whisper pain with your deep vocals
Sensual
Shaking you intensely to awaken your senses to make a connection with your crying soul
Spectacle

Biting your tender flesh slowly to calm my hunger with my hungry teeth
Oh, I feel like an animal
My lips are sticky & shaded as I taste the thick red that you’re bleeding
I think, I’m an animal
Even the wind under dark heavens of hell is howling crazy
Yeah, I’m an animal

I see you in my mirror & my lens is bleeding red visuals
Ahh, I’m so bloodthirsty animal
I see you in my shadow & I look like that fiery dragon
Wo, I’m so scary animal
I see you shattered & scattered all over my dark ground
Rahh, I’m so brutal animal
I disappear in darkness after killing your dying soul to be one with the new you & eternity
Yeah, I am that tainted & untamed animal

Quietly

I’m resting on my grounded bed in the night
But I’m simply falling
The old scene is playing constantly in my mind
Seems my reality
My heart is listening to your crystal clear voice
I’m surrounded
The soft reflection of those beautiful eyes on mine
I’m caught in them

The sound of loneliness is so loud
It’s so crowded
So I close my eyes to disappear in the dark
They are now watering
I’m shaking & twisting as if I’m entrapped
Coz it’s you I’m missing
Sinking, sinking, sinking, sinking
I’m simply drowning

I’m flowing river of emptiness
It’s my longing
Taking several painful deep breaths
I’m silently sobbing
Night has never been so heavy & long
It’s close to morning
Accepting & surrendering to the now
There’s a deeper meaning

I’m bleeding, writing, tearing, living
Calmly
Atleast I’m blessed to miss someone
Like crazy
Connecting with the beautiful energy
Spiritually
And I keep loving, loving, loving, loving her
Quietly

A Human Being

So if I simply write this to you
Would you read it?
Would you get what I mean?
Eye me explicitly
Tear me tenderly
Drop me dramatically
Wet me whimsically

I’m dreaming in this dream
You are with me
Soulful touches
Body heat
Wet lips
Intense eyes
One heart

Yeah, it surely is a dream
Coz I can only see me in reality
Empty touches
Body scream
Dry lips
Soft eyes
Broken heart

Is love only related to a relation with another human?
Is love about feeling, touching & kissing?
Is love about missing, longing & meeting?
Is love about losing, sacrificing & winning?
Is love conditional, seasonal & situational?
Answers I already have coz I know its true meaning

But tonight I’m missing the heat
Tonight I don’t want to really see
My craving to kiss like crazy
And look in the beautiful eyes so deep
Touch the gentle skin tenderly
Forget the world & all those what ifs

But the emptiness in me
Is choking me very slowly
My throat is dry & heavy
My soul is grey & rainy
This moment my body is shivering
Coz I’m feeling once again very lonely

Vulnerability at its peak
Soon I won’t be able to speak
Caged in these feelings like a freak
Running around in circles to be free
Closing my eyes to find the inner peace
But eyes are constantly dripping beads

Yeah, it truly was just a dream
I’m sitting in my room not able to sleep
It’s time to listen to my favorite playlist
Before I sink into my loneliness a few more feet
I’m in tears but I just don’t want to scream
Weak & in pain I can be coz I too am a human being
