To the end...

TO THE END!

How we are living, we can't say
Life, we can't adjudicate
A lamp can't see it's own base
It can't be any other way
Life ain't cushy to give away
Heedless of the state of stay

Living ain't simple as life
Life is in stages
Hope is the theme
When one gets to any bridge
One will cross it
Until the soul...
Crosses the bridge of death

WORD WIZARD II

The 2nd Word Wizard emerged!

JUST THE THOUGHT OF YESTERDAY

Just the thought of yesterday alone,
Makes my heart melt and fully blown
How could we not see beyond colours?

WW I : MY NEW ROOM

This is the winning piece for the first edition of the Word Wizardry Contest on WhatsApp, happy reading!

MY NEW ROOM
Different faces and probably different races
Similar pipes and probably similar likes
Different homes and probably different poles
Similar quest and probably similar bests

To strive in different phases
With the best of all weapons and the swiftest of all talents
To elegantly ink views
Painting them from the palette of the mind
To leave imprints
One that is louder than the loudest voice

Here my new room
With friends to word-bloom
Fortnightly is going to be our new moon
With one winner to always boom

DEDICATED TO ALL AT WORD WIZARDRY CONTEST

VARIATION

VARIATION
The day will soon be over
and the night will take over.
The dotless skin will get folds.
Time-smile induced
physical incapabilities.
What a transition?!
Courtesy of time.

These are the words;
while you can, please do,
while you are, please be.
The redolence or rancor of old age
shan't be tasted by all.

But then, night is not the end of time.
Again, the day will come over
bringing forth yesterday in deeds
making the cycle complete in its characteristics.
Here or hereafter,
today haunts tomorrow.

Today answers the call of yesterday
and so shall tomorrow honor today
until there is no day again when
the day and night will be dark.
In honor of Mathematics,
the mother of science,
''there is direct variation between
deeds and rewards with the circle of light
as the constant''.

ROMEO AND JULIET

ROMEO AND JULIET

There is a pain in my head.
Striking my heart so hard,
my mind aches so immensely.
I have tried but I can't blend.
The moments of ache agonizes.

It's not of beauty and the beast,
it's another Romeo and Juliet.
Love was found at the other side
of religious barrier.
Ambient situations lead to dead end.

Love is not wild
so no need to tame.
It's enough condition
to tear the boundary
only if the will
is not negative on the scale.

How I wish for fulfillment
of my friendvs desire.
How I wish we live
in a world of no religion.
How I wish we thrive
in light of The Almighty
without path partition
unto The Supreme Being.

Any moment it strikes,
it hurts my mind
just like it did the last time
all of the time afresh.
I can't deal with it,
I can only hope
that Asfiya's next life proposal
be approved by The Almighty
that her other half
may exist in religious unison with her.
