  • Listen to the sound of rain

    Listen to the sound of rain

    While the wind blows through ripe grain,

    The aeolian sounds tell a tale,

    When you stand in a gale,

    It washes away all your pain.

  • Dear Brother!

    Dear Brother,
    I feel sorry
    That I couldn’t be by your side.
    The darkest days you passed,
    The scariest secrets no one ever knew.
    The pain that you secretly bore.
    I will tell the tales
    That reveals the unsung scars.

    Hear, O universe!
    There’s a Hamlet in the town.
    He went unrecognised for generations after generations.
    Now that you recognize him,
    Heal his wounds, soothe his pains,
    All that he has been through.

    Dear God,
    Now that I know,
    I have become my father.
    And I deserve my peace.
    “Om Shanti, Om Shanti, Om Shanti.”

    Dear Brother,
    I wish we were happy like we used to be,
    I wish we could meet in a parallel universe,
    Where we would live happily ever after.
    Until then, always remember,
    You have always been loved.
    You will always be in my heart.
    For there is a place reserved,
    Where the roots connect to our ancestors. 

  • The Eastern Mystic in the Western World

    In a world full of strangeness,
    I am merely a mystic traveler.
    While I traveled to seek myself,
    I myself became a stranger.
    I travel through time.
    I travel through the line,


    While the world changes,
    from an Eastern world to a Western world,
    from a postcolonial echo to a postmodern hue,
    from a mystic world to a world of desire,
    in the realm of reality and desire,
    I seek to hold on to my world,
    I get swept away in the world,
    I try to flow in the world,
    I get stuck in my world.

    Behold! the Eastern mystic in the western World of desire.
    I am the Genie, guardian of the desires,
    Tell me seeker, what do you desire?
    I desire to belong in the Heart of the Self.
    While holding Him in my heart. 

  • Why do I love you?

    I love you

    Not that I

    Love you

    Because you are

    Beautiful or attractive.

    Not that when

    You smile, brings

    Me joy, not

    That your eyes

    Tells the tale,

    of my existence.

    But because i

    Seek for

    A connection to

    Make, from the

    Earth to heaven,

    from sorrows to

    joy till the

    day, we live.
