~Rat Race~

We are all engaged in this rat race,

Trying to make the best run.

But do we ever look at each other’s face,

And be willing to enjoy and have some fun.

For some , it is crucial to end with pace,

Even if it is to take in hand , a gun.

Few of us would live long to see a day,

But the rest shall sure fade away.

It is an irony that we try running faster, this race

While not knowing what it is past that lace.

What is the point in running so fast?

When you know we all shall perish one day.

The Hope!

Neither can i live with you, nor without

And when I’m all alone it’s you that I think about

Every moment I was with you, it did feel right

Now When I close my eyes, it is you that stand bright

When I turn around and look back on the sand

I miss those tracks you used to leave on the land

Now Over the ledge of my heart is where I stand,

I wish you were close that I could hold your hand.

All that lives in me now are those moments of life

Those Flashes of reminiscence, that keeps me alive

These memories with salt and ice, I shake,

Mix it with a glass of vodka, and then take.

Sipping down from the chalice of pain

As I slowly walk down the unknown lane

With the hope and prayer that one day

I shall hold your hand once again, at the heavenly bay

~Not to be lost~

I am not to be lost
But to be saved,
For Christ is my Lord
And His Truth shall reign.

‘You are Mine’ He says,
He shall guard us always.
We have seen his wonderful ways
How he saved a mighty race.

With his blood he erased,
all his children’s disgrace.
Forever shall his name be praised,
For his kingdom shall prevail.

~Elegy~

Looking from the heavens above
I see my body in my last abode
Shattered through the grisly road
And a burning head mocked by the Crowd

The pain was all gone in the last blow
When the enemy stormed in with a growl
I could hear nothing but a wolf’s howl,
As I slowly bled out into the afterglow.

Beyond those doors of pain I saw;
A lady holding a brilliant lamp.
She walked me through the regal gates;
To the chamber, where rests the lamb.

“Holy Holy Holy” , they cried;
The Arc Angels and their flight.
The heaven opened up with all might
As men watched the divine Light!

~ A Cold Blood Winter ~

The hazy clouds are setting in
And the sun is losing its sheen
The cold Russian winter is blowing in
The trees are setting for the new scene

The clear bright skies of yesterday
Now embraces a gloom that is to stay!
The Cold Rain drops of yesterday
Turns into snowflake with in the haze.

With the change in seasonal rhymes
Nature is changing its heart beats
It whispers a cold breeze into my heart
That, this winter holds a bitter stint

Cus’ Far colder is the blood of men
And their words sharper than steel
For such reasons, with winter I would love to be;
Than fake a smile and look happy.

$ick N $our

I feel sick and sour
Like a cactus is stuck in my throat.
I can drink nothing, but hot
Is this fever or not ?

The Doc gave me some bitter pills,
Along with it came a wretched bill.
All my senses are numb , I feel so ill.
And all food tastes like litter, still …

I should not speak, nor should I strain
But to do nothing is a much bigger pain.
I should not take food with oil , just plain
Ain’t my Doc really insane?

‘In Deep S#!T’

I work in IT industry
and, it was never my dream to be a part of it.

I have my own story
on, why I fell deep into this demon’s pit!

I was a silly college boy,
who wanted to live life to it’s very last bit.

But then came this story
On, how the IT bubble became a big hit.

I toiled away every day
Hopping one day, I will be a part of the glitz.

Then destiny had it’s way
And, I fell victim of the bubble’s wit.

I said ; Come what may!
it will be sweet when it becomes a habit.

But nothing did sway,
Now I realize that I am in deep $h!t !!!
