Friday Night

 Her risque gape

Sent invitation to join her

On a walk through the town

On a freezing Friday night

While streets were empty

She termed herself as an author

Told tales from her life

It turned fatal

When she offered a coffee

At her home

Snorting cocaine

I Wish

 

LONELY

 

Longing to have an accomplice

Oasis like, amidst the desert horde

Niggle, with an urge to share feelings

Eager to fill the emptiness in heart

Looking to spend leisure time with

Yearning to be the friend and lover

Wedding Knot

 

A Good-natured couple

Waited for so long

To tie the knot

With respuscular strings

Of love, to start a new life

They're drenched until

The last drop of the rain

Amidst the tulips garden

Exchanging vows of desire

With silver rings

Lost River

A lost river in the desert 

Dried up the source of lives

Farmlands became barren 

Animals were freed to death

As men couldn't find water

It uprooted tribes to salt mines 

There was a lake with salty water

They found a way to separe salt 

Everything looked white like snow 

Elders sang folk songs at night 

About the life in their villages

And their adventures in the river

The youth painted those images

About lost lifestyles and cultures

While the moon witnessed their pain
