Unshed tears

Unshed tears clog those eyes,

Their pathways lost in mire,

Their pain cries alone, in vain,

They yearn for oceans,

To quench fire,to drown self;

In their soul burns

A self created purgatory;

They stand alone, a friendless Sun,

Why do they walk? Why laugh? Why cry?

In world that's not their own?

Rare blossoms come to deserts,

Their gardens e'er in winters groan.

Unshed Tears

Unshed tears clog my eyes
My pain cries alone, in vain,
Crying for oceans to sink,
To drown, my soul burns
In self created purgatory;
Why do I walk? why laugh? why cry?
This world is not my own;
Rare blossoms come to desert sands,
My gardens in winter groan.
I stand alone,
A friendless Sun.

Where has love gone?

In noon day of duty,
In compulsion to perform,
In race to touch summit,
Where has love gone?

In glare of false light,

In artificial morns,

In changing face of love,

Where has love gone?

In terrors that stalk,

In meagre lives forlone,

In created boundaries,

Where has love gone?

In smoke blackened skies,

In gardens wild with thorn,

In rain starved rivers,

Where has love gone?

In fearful child's eyes,

In souls wrecked and torn,

In a burden called life,

Where has love gone?

Can't Reach your soul

Why can't I touch your heart?

Why can't I drink your tears?

Why can't I wipe your pain away?

Why can't I bleed for you?

Why can't I sing you songs?

Why can't I reach the stars each day?

Many a day I dream of you,

Your hand I hold with joy,

In myriad ways I call to you,

Silence my dreams destroy:

Why can't I live my dream?

Why can't I soar in skies?

Why can't I build my rainbow arch?

Why can't I quench my thirst?

Why can't I rest my fears?

Why can't I bid my feet to march?
