Submission

When the night is dark
And you return my soul
I am thankful to you
For making me whole

I am able to submit
With all humility to you
I praise your name
And your vanguards too
The disciple of him
And their successors too

During the day
I do have to pray
That I stay on the path
Of the righteous way
And if I err
You correct my sway
Because when the night comes .
Only you might grant me another day.

Hidayat - The gift

Under the candle
There is darkness indeed
Alot of spoken hollow air
That burns oxygen with greed

A small change in the letter
Is what they call Subversion
It is subtle but changes meanings
It is definitely a perversion

Cheap scriptures, cheap carbon prints
The message isn't real
Blind followers you want
For your daily spiel

I pray for your souls
When you have to answer
What havoc and destruction you left
Cause you were a chancer

This is a reminder, a gift
For the listeners, and seekers with open hearts
To the devil, to the wretched
A poisonous dart

Eerie Emptiness

Surrounded by the people in all
this restlessness
I hug myself but I am feeling
powerless
Your mere existence provides me all
the sustenance
They all talk about
their happiness
They forget to tell you about
the envious

It all is such a
pettiness
The richest become richer
it's frivolous
But happy are even
the penniless
I wonder if they have
the awareness

Because in all of
this crazyness
We want! We demand everything
in readiness
Because we have to satisfy
our selfishness
Everything being reduced to walking carcasses
.
'Only God can judge me' is a quote for lowly self-interest
We wouldn't all have
this loneliness
We are human, but we can fill this eerie emptiness.
If our darkness can lighten up
with friendliness
So we can live in a world full
of kindness

Senbonzakura Kageyoshi - The blossoms of the Cherry Trees

Blossoms of the cherry trees
are spreading in the land
You are fighting your demon
with your pen in your hand,

The depth of your language
the depth of your words
Contrued to fool
without any remorse

Only beauty is visible
to the innocent eye
To the wisened up its a sword
aimed against the sky

Thousand angels will come
crashing down and defeat you
Against the filth that you write
The toxic bile that you spew

The heaven will prevent
your pieces to be moved
Even a phyrric victory
certainly won't be approved.

Surrender your ego,
to the omnipotent right now
You aren't a god,
but simply a sow

The petals that fell
They will grow over the plain
Whatever you wished
Nothing of it will remain

Phoenix

Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust
Humans ego crashes
because he is not Just

He was moulded from clay
and rose to the sky
He ascended to reach the light
he wanted to fly

His eyes are gazing
and yearning for the sun
He was given new life
his journey again begun

His hearts burning desire
to meet eternal light
leaving behind darkness
by leaving his plight

He came nearer and nearer
but the sun caused him to die
His body becoming ashes
this time the body dried

A death it did not seemed
it shone and seemed set alight
It mirrored the sun
to meet kin it made a flight
It rose again and trussed the suns light
It never was seen anew
it was his last sight


background first poem written 20th september 2008. 

Zoroaster

I sought, I searched for the Altar of light
You are in the distance, you are the answer to my plight
My pursuit my desire, an answer, a delight
My truest aim, only you, you are in my sight

My predecessors looked to the sky, worshipping the sun
This was their story but mine, mine just begun
Listen to it carefully remember it son.
It will be your guidance to the only One

They mistook my beliefs and worshipped the fire
This isn't my creed, this wasn't my desire
My face was directed to the being that's higher
A Warner will come and guide you away from the pyre
