A Departure's Painful Sting



As he departs from sight, a void unfilled,

Words, like gentle raindrops, you instilled.

Even when love's arrow pierced my heart's wall,

Desolation echoed in every breath's call.


Yet, your gift was a world of words and hue,

A sanctuary that within me grew.

I've witnessed this departure, a thousand times told,

Bodies turned to ashes, stories of old.


Today, it's different, a sorrow so vast,

For it's you, turning to ash at last.

Brother, why did you leave so soon,

Could you not stay beneath the moon?


You could have lived, not just for me,

But for the mother, you see,

She endured life's relentless strife,

Your promise, her reason for life.


Was your karma to the divine supreme,

More important than her lifelong dream?

Hey, death, a senseless jest you play,

Ignoring pleas, taking him away.


A widow's hope, her only thread,

Snatched by you, as you sped.

Oh, death, you heartless clown,

Leaving sorrow and despair all around.

"Solitary Flight"

Image
On wings of dreams, my spirit soars, Yet in their absence, uncertainty roars. Hope to grasp my goals, I implore, Seeking that day, secure and sure. Alone I stand, a self-grown tree, From a single seed, I found my decree. In moments frail, when odds abound, I crumble, weep, on solitude's ground. No soul to fathom my hidden sorrow, Inequity's hand, I've borne tomorrow. Wealth on display, yet peace denied, Loneliness dwells, a constant tide. No love to warm this heart of stone, Though to others, my love is shown. They cling for gain, their motives clear, No one to stay, no one to endear. A mirage of love, a desert's grace, In this solitary, endless chase.

"Beneath Celestial Wings: Dreams of a Girl's Journey Through Time"

Image
In the realm of dreams, a girl aspires, To soar on wings, her spirit on fire. A longing to transcend earthly bounds, To dance with clouds, where freedom resounds. In twilight's embrace, she closes her eyes, Envisioning a canvas of cerulean skies. Imagining a world beyond mortal strife, Where beauty unfolds in the afterlife. Her dreams take flight on ethereal wings, Exploring realms where the soul sings. A tapestry woven with colors untold, As she envisions a destiny to unfold. Through cycles of life, a cosmic ballet, Reincarnation's mystique in the astral array. A phoenix rising from the ashes of time, Each rebirth, a new paradigm. In the tapestry of existence, threads intertwine, Past and future, a cosmic design. She dreams of lifetimes, an eternal quest, A soul's journey, an unwavering zest. A butterfly emerging from a cocoon, A symphony played on the moon. In each rebirth, a chance to refine, The essence of self, an eternal design. Through the corridors of time, she weav

"Resilience Unveiled”

Image
In childhood's realm, as an only child, I thrived, My parents' love, the warmth in which I dived, With every sunrise, my world felt so alive, In their embrace, my heart was deeply tied.   But life took a turn, down a different trail, A marriage bond that cloaked me in betrayal, They hungered for my gold, my heart grew pale, My father's gifts, like fleeting dreams, set sail.   In that abyss, my spirit felt confined, A web of greed, deceit that undermined, The love I'd cherished, now cruelly maligned, In shadows deep, my happiness declined.   But through the darkest nights, I found a way, Education's beacon lit the path, I'd say, A job, well-paying, where dreams could sway, I vowed to leave my past's disarray.   With every paycheck, my spirit soared anew, No longer trapped, my strength and hope in view, I stand today, a life that's tried and true, No more tears, no more false ado.   I've learned that riches aren't just gold's embrace, True weal
