I Wish to Go Home to Cry

 


I wish to go home to cry, 

My eyes have started to blur out, 

I can't carry the weight of unshed tears, 

But I'm far from home. 

My feelings overflow like a spring gushing forth from the earth, 

It seeks refuge in moonless nights and 

dark corners. 

The heart has outgrown, it's no longer of fists size, 

It has become indifferent to the aches and scratches. 

I wish to go home to cry, 

But I can't remember where my home is, 

It has become a delusion, 

I get the blurred images of the blue windows with yellow curtains, 

That swayed in gentle winds, 

To kiss the books on the table. 

Or was it a yellow window with blue curtains? 

I'm unable to figure out the exact picture, 

I haven't been home since three seasonal cycles, or four or five. 

But I wish to go home to cry, 

To cut open myself and

heal my heart with yellow flowers, 

And to sleep with lavenders under the pillow. 

But which is the right road? 

Which is the right bus? 

Where do I get down? 

I have miles to travel, 

Rivers to cross, 

Deaths to witness, 

Maybe my heart will survive till then. 

Maybe it will endure everything, 

And if not, 

I will bury it myself in this lonely sands, 

Chanting a dirge, 

Away from home,

Ceasing all the feelings. 

But I wish to go home to cry, 

Maybe I will find home someday.

General Madness

  I see General Madness cracking open, He oozes out as a pulp from a laceration, He flows down the streets to places and people unknown. He would crawl up new landings  and conquers them like he did to mine years ago. Some years back, he invaded my city of Head, Which was on the verge of destruction by the civil war, Between the groups of experiences and sorrows. When General Madness came, the two creepy groups united, made him their leader. For years I carried a nuclear explosion in my head. He was indifferent to the curves of my cursive letters, And produced scribbles of a toddler, sending out misinformation. He conducted minor explosions,  assuring the solidarity of other inmates of my Land. But most times, Capt. Heart from the left quarters was a rebel, He filed verbal and written complaints in vain. He persuaded the Lady Mouth  to utter things unknown and uncouth. She seemed an elegant lady outside, with a smile, she was confident of, Her son was Sir Gland who r...

YOU

Never did I think I could find something as attractive as you, You were like my morning coffee Without cream and muffins, My first prayer on every dawn And the last on dusk. My closet is indifferent without your cologne, Which lingered all day along the hall like fresh lavenders. And it was not the tequila in my margaritas that intoxicated me, but the constant sight of you, everytime I blinked my eyes. My psyche was away from the earthly realm wandering in the intricacy of your control. Flipping through the pages of  our rendezvous I couldn't see the excitement in me, which was halted by what seemed to be my clockwork routine. But your face projected  the blisters in your soul which apparently you hid under your attractive words. In and out, we failed  To be the hues of each other's life. And I tried to paddle my canoe to reach yours. Yet you reliquished, your last song of content was dedicated to my colourless juice which purified my face. I wish the time had stopped jus...
