Vain

here i start afresh, ready to enter the world again,
after the time off to find myself in me
but there is nothing i can lose now, nothing i can win
where do i begin ?

i vanquished love, fame, wealth and desire
to achieve peace, solace, and knowledge higher
but,what is to do now? what is to gain ?
nothing gives me pleasure, and nothing can give me pain

there is no one to see, no one to talk to
nothing i need , nothing i want to
when all hopes have ceded, what should i attain?
nothing gives me pleasure and nothing can give me pain

money gives me power and people give me support
 to satisfy the senses and conquer the world
But, when the self is all there is , then what else remains
nothing gives me pleasure, and nothing can give me pain

i had spent my life seeking love ,and then i found you..
To live your every thought was all i could ever do .
But, when the self alone is real, even all you is, but vain
nothing gives me pleasure, and nothing gives me pain ..

 where do i begin?

solitude is bliss

Solitude is Bliss !! Born alone into the womb of a mother, Away from friends, family and the mix The world full of its diversifications Never knew all of it exists A convergence of flesh, hair and bones, I could have given a miss Solitude is bliss !! A chapter of nomenclature and belonging In a world of myriad beings A lecture on the do’s and the don’t’s With the seen and the unseen Mind put through constant learning with conditioning in the mix Solitude is bliss !! Building connections on the way with the various manifestations you meet alone one is lonely togetherness is what we should seek understanding diversity and their confusions makes me sick solitude is bliss !! Running towards the aspirations The desires I need to fulfill An array of emotions, of love With the one, to make me complete But nothing lasts forever, burnt to ashes is my every wish Solitude is bliss !! Ignorant in the womb, of existence Indifferent under the wh

i am a thought

I AM JUST A THOUGHT i was thought of a long time ago, all along with many seeds that were sown I never had a name, nor identity any in an instant , that one became too many the body, the traits , the looks were put in place , and all that i would do, all that i would face while in the beginning i knew from where i sprang but amidst confusion, i forgot who i am? the thoughts kept moving and i lived all for gains and kept succumbing to the different kinds of pains limited, yet unlimited, the thought in itself started to think and for generations embodied all in an instant wink forever ignorant , thoughts turned to perpetual wants performing actions, with emotions riding the horns shining in this illusory world with pleasure and pain well defined I realized, seeking them is a waste of time Willingly, the thinking itself sunk in the thought lucidly revealing all i am not !!!! when the mind itself ceases to exist i am a thought that disappears in the mist

eternal love is eternal bliss

when love transcends the boundaries of physicality and the senses, it reaches the level of the soul, wherein you realize and experience that what you had been craving for externally was always within you, this poem talks about the same journey of experience. also not to forget that love is divine walking at my own pace, i couldnt notice the tears, the sorrow, the pain i gave to peers running towards my goals, goals i never found, treaded with watchful eyes, with my soul full of fears sleeping to my mistakes, procrastinating what my heart should face, waking from my dream , i seek thee i look for thee i searched every nook and corner, i searched foreign lands, i travelled every river , every mountain on this land i spoke with every stranger, i begged from every man i called out your name every morning, i whispered to you every plan my love i look for thee, i seek thee i went to every temple, i bowed at every mosque, i sat at every shrine, i asng at every church
