I Want A New Love


I want to nurture a new love;
Tender like a childhood dream.
Encrypted with beauty of souls;
Devoid of earthly expectations.
I want to traverse the seasons,
in her solemn company forever.
Wandering through the miracles,
the earth offers us to experience.
I'll promise to build the world she
dreams to see and live until death.
I'll throw the coin on the fountain,               
to bring good luck for our journey.
Letting go of begrudging heartbreak, 
to provide an innocent feeling of hope.

The Meat Ban

The government banned all meats 
Claiming that it hurts religious 
sentiments 
The band, 'New Age Hippies' sang 
'Nothing left to sacrifice', Let's 
Revolt 
They campaigned in social media 
With the keywords, 'Freedom to
Eat'
Their cult companions gathered in 
Front of parliament to protest
Loudly 
We want our meat and our right back
You're just the Harries' we voted 
Remember 
They started pelting the cheeses at 
Lawmakers who defended the 
Ban
While some of them grilled the meat 
In defiance, despite the threat of
Arrest

Caerleon



A poem about one of my favourite place in #Wales. 

A Long Walk Home

A long walk home 
13 stories tall long suffering
With a broken heart drowning in silence

The bitter words from her
Tasting like a poisonous goodbye
Killed their nice journey together atonce 

The slow poignant steps
Ruing being steadfast in his love 
Agonised like a furious mount Vesuvius 

A desolate dark room 
Filling more pain in his mind 
Betrayed like an ally embracing enemy 

A box full of memories
Portraying years worth romance 
Looked like thorns in the garden of hope 

A hand full of blood tears 
Raining from the dejected clouds 
Mended all thoughts towards moving on

A Journey to Siliguri


He was mocked as foible

by the villagers, but he was polite.

He doesn't exist on the citizens' list

He was a migrant from the nation

on the other side of the Ichamati River.

He lived in a shack on the river shore,

His life revolved around the mangroves

in the river delta, He borrows a small boat

every day, to sail through the mangroves,

In search of valuables brought by the river currents,                                           

He mostly returns with only fish. One day he got a                                         

book clung on to the roots of mangrove, it was wet,                                         

He dried it on the roof, He was curious to know the                                     

content, but he was illiterate, He has never been to                                               

a school before, Local school children taught him to

read Bengali. It took some more years to read the book.                              

It was about a journey to the Siliguri, He was mesmerized                             

by the depiction of that town, a few months later he started                           

his journey to Siliguri to relive the book!
