Wherever You Will Go
Expatriate
Expatriates
remind me of Malayalees
Going to the Middle
East in search of riches
From my lush
green state of Kerala, And
work their souls
out in the desert heat
They save every
dinar or riyal they could
And send it to
their families every month
They miss every
event in their family
Letters were the
lifeline for information
Only heard the
voices of the loved ones
From a telephone
in the neighbourhood
They could visit
home only once in two or
three years, They
come with big bags
and boxes, Full
of gifts for almost entire
the village, They
return with a heavy heart,
Chasing more
money to build a new home
And fulfil the
dreams of their loved ones
Those men, their
blood, and their sweat
Changed the
fortune of millions of lives
Love
It is scary to
wish for love again
I've been through
the dreaded
Path before
It is foolish to
chase love again
I've been through
the agony of
broken promises
It is so painful
to seek love again
I've been through
the emptiness of
broken heart
It is so bitter
to dream of love again
I've been through
nights without
any slumber
It is so
nightmarish to feel love again
I've been through
the river of deceit
cold-hearted
It is hopeless to
welcome love again
I've been through
the sea of tears of
unhealed soul

Pello - The Duocorn
Pello the duocorn sat on the
Floral arrangement for occultic
Worship set by its witch mistress
The worship place is splashed with
Neon pink potions to attract the souls
It has the magical powers to fly and talk
Its long hairs can rise and create havoc
Witch travels on its back on dark nights
To meet her wizard lover in the soul hill
They offer souls to the god of the aliens
With a dream to become aliens of zelio
planet, and leave the earth for a new life
Witch need a thousand more souls to
fulfil the demand set by the alien god
After the worship, pello got the powers
To attract and catch souls without harm
It was sent to the death valley to bring
The required souls for the final worship
It came back with souls to the soul hill
Wizard and witch offered the souls and
Worshipped the alien god with psychic
devotion, Alien god Zeliouni demanded
the sacrifice of Pello to fulfil their wish,
They restrained Pello and extracted its soul,
With eyes full of grief and tears, The impressed
Zeliouni made them aliens, and gave back the life of Pello!
