The need to be understood drives all of us in our conversations. In all our little body movements and all that we signal on social media. We project our fond illusions in order to miraculously escape a direct confrontation with our truth. We seek to experience without experiencing and try to imbibe someone else’s articulation [...]

[495] Life Is Not The Same
I live a fictional life of self-examinationand an attempt to personify wind in my stepsFutile ends of euphoria and its eternal chaseTo forget the ends but remember the epiphaniesA glimpse of the flight about to endI remember to be unafraid of the fall this timeand focus on the journey from where I was to where [...]
[494] The Middle of Extremes
Perhaps you will find me when I am lostPerhaps you will lose yourself in the processMaybe the quiet will deafen your sensesMaybe the rhymes will give you the peace you requireThis exile of feeling feelings has gone on for too longYou live, perhaps, in all the maybe’s of your headThe vague anxiety halts time in [...]
[493] Rebooting My System
Blank slate morningMeditating upon silenceIt all begins hereThe birth of chaos or blissHe who asks for controlonly realises the truthwhen it’s all going downhillShe who becomes shapeless inher perception can only conquerthe hold of feelings on herwhen she conquers knowing herselfIt all ends here —- Art by Moebius
[492] Yesterday In Search For Tomorrow
My words exist for another timeThey’re born with accumulated dustThey die with my first cryThey are trapped in reflection of all that I cannot createIt is adorned with jewelsof all that I cannot hearSkies become dimLands part in waitKings recognise their sacrificesQueens fly in their dreamsThe past I was never a part offeels more real [...]
[491] Never Look Away
Tuned in to find beautyin all the discarded linesin all the perceived uglinessAll because she taught me that‘Everything that is true is beautiful’Manic fluency finds its expressionin the apparent rigidity of my wordsFree-flowing exuberance gets lostin the carefully chosen wordsThe movement of her unapologetic selfdemonstrates all I seem to lack ’Never look away’ she saidand [...]
[490] A Talk with The Unconscious
Voices in my headwork behind the scenesConnectional severityA life stretched on synapsesI think to just forgeta vial of ecstasyAlive only in dreamsAs my light keeps flickeringFollow all the fireto the scene of the crimeSequences on a movie screenplays behind the sheathThe origin always evadesThe end is always seductiveA fall hides in the blinkingThe foreshadowing is [...]
[489] Ship of Theseus
Stay here Don’t go back to there againThe rapture in the mind is real as real can be The mind expands when it lets go of nowand flows with the feelingOf flow itselfLet yourself forget the selfConnect to every epiphany you forgetDon’t bring it back to the world of timeBring eternity into the moment of [...]
[488] A Treatise of Truth
Are you as lost as I am?You say you found a wayWe both know of its impurityTell me the truth of your wayward waysA memento of which you keep in the deep of the darkest nightAll the signs point to confusionsentences without punctuationspaintings without signaturesEverything is a circle to return to the end of understanding, [...]
[487] Lessons Learned
All that remains is a folk tale misrememberedthe dust accumulated amidst the ruins of all that becameAll that survives is a feeling gone by in the form of a songof lyrical liesA knife isn’t as sharp as the silence tonightA fly on the wall is disturbed at its mightThe bird's eye view is a reminder [...]
