Is our suffering holy?

I This silence between us tears me apart slowly “Staying away” from you is killing me wholly I know our love is sacred and our feelings are holy Then why do you suffer? And why do I feel so lowly? II I miss you every moment and each is never-ending Though all seems normal we know we’re pretending I can hear a gloomy sound Is it your heart that’s rending as it craves my sacred love, while you refuse comprehending? …

Solitary beauty

A solitary tree ……….romancing a solitary cloud ………………………………………..in the desert ………………………………………..The dry, hot wind ……….is blowing encouraging them to flirt As long as ……….they are prepared to brave ………………………………………..the pain and the hurt ………………………………………..The two lovers ……….can rejoice in the sandstorm’s musical concert

Why can't time stand still?

As I sit next to you I feel so cosy and blissful, as if there’s nothing more to achieve, no desire to fulfil Why can’t time stand still? As I sit looking at you I see in your moist eyes the softness of your soul, and hear its silent shrill Why can’t time stand still? As I sit close to you I can hear your heartbeats, racing away rhythmically, wondering what is God’s will? Why can’t time stand still? As …

My incorrigible heart

It’s dusk, that miraculous time of the day The sun has set on the other side of the bay Children are shouting, laughing as they play Birds are hurrying off to where they stay Pious individuals are bowing down to pray Labourers seem happy to receive their pay The Sky looks like a pink rose bouquet As if His creation, He has chosen to display If all is so beautiful, why does it seem grey? Can someone explain to me …

A million ways

-I- You say you don’t understand The way I feel for you Listen to my soul’s whispers You’ll discover something grand You say You can’t believe That I love you so much Listen To my heart’s beats you’ll fathom and perceive You say you can’t comprehend Why I love you Listen to my irrationality ‘cos all reasons I transcend -II- I don’t know WHY But I do know HOW I love you in a million ways I know it when …

Candour

My friendship is not a favour Nor is it a fleeting flavour It is a lifelong promise An oath of eternal bliss My fidelity is not coerced Nor is it an act rehearsed It is an urge intrinsic Like truly inspired music My love is not an obligation Nor is it a fascination It is a choice I’ve made An instinct I obeyed My dream is not an illusion Nor is it a conjured delusion It is a glimpse of …

Waiting

I am waiting silently carrying love in my heart I am striving patiently while we’re far apart I am weeping frequently as I miss you every second I am thinking constantly when will my soul be beckoned? I am struggling hopefully with faith as my prop I am dreaming wakefully that someday yours fears will stop I am praying fervently to win your heart over I am living knowingly that I’ll wait for you forever ~© Manoj Khatri~

Harvest

The mind’s garden is fertile As we sow, so shall we reap A good seed produces a smile A bad one makes us weep Resentment leads to anger Prejudice promotes hatred Fear is a synonym for danger Guilt kills before we’re dead Doubts raise uncertainty Envy is the root of pain Blame generates toxicity Is there anything we gain? To avoid a harvest of weeds We must plant noble seeds Like those of genuine love Blessed with grace from above …

Beyond here

Am I afraid of death? No, I am not In fact I am eager for it to take me away To the unknown From where I came I am eager to cross over To the other side Which is my own Where physical boundaries Don’t limit me Where I can love And be loved Endlessly Where no one says Till death do us part Because we never part Where love is not contrived No meanings are derived No, I am …
