Lord, forgive us for we have sinned,
Alas, forgiveness is fifty yards too late.

Early Signs Of Grief

The wounds still fresh, the pain still strong,
Beneath the ground, with you, is where I belong.
You’re numbered years, still vivid and so few,
My only refuge is the memories of you.
We all still hurt but try to move on,
Still we stray to your tomb, from dusk till dawn.
I call upon you, at all unearthly hours,
No hour too great, for a brotherhood like ours.
I plea for you to invade my dreams,
To tell me that which I never knew,
But you hear me not, for I have sinned,
Affections aside… I understand!
Yearn as I may,
I cannot redeem your wrongs,
For what you sow, so shall you reap,
Alas, I can but only pray the lord your soul to keep.

Tribute To A Memory

Beyond death do us part,
Beneath the soil do we meet,
Leaving friends and foes to pray,
For the lord our souls to keep.
I find strength in the purpose,
For which the lord created me,
Your loved ones my own,
Your soul at peace.
You left me estranged, alone and weak,
A treeline of memories,
An adolescence without sleep.
I cry no more for the tears have dried,
The hurt remains beside my soaring pride,
Remember you I will, live forever you shall,
Your legacy my will, my life a shell.
Together alive, in death do we meet,
This brotherhood of ours, forever ocean deep.

Perceptions Of Leave

A fortnight before, a tale was told,
Three lives divided, their serenity no more.
That night the gift was taken,
The radiance recalled,
His youth was scattered,
Then darkness befalls.
Tired and consumed,
He returned to his lord,
To keep watch over sin,
Without his brother's accord.
The scars of faith,
The worth of words,
The wrath of time,
Their fear foretold.

An elephant never forgets
 | 1978 - 1998 You know, I hate not having you around... I needed more time... I needed to show you... So much was left unsaid... I thought the void would heal... Do i cry for you or for myself? I'm truly ashamed... Forgive me dear friend for i am incapable of forgiving myself and because of that, i seldom forgive others. "Wo, Aansoon bhari aankhon mey ghoomay, Din raat, tu baarishon meh bheegta tha mere saath, Aanganon me jo saaye jawan thae, Dhoop mai wo bhichartay kahaan thay" [Neend Aati Nahin - Junoon] |
Fade To Dust

Not a word, not a sigh,
Not even a goodbye,
You left these shores with dust in your eyes,
Now that dust settles to fate.
I need not your worries, I need not your aches,
My life secluded, my sanity at stake.
Without a word, the barren days pass by,
My will grows stronger and those days fade to distant memories.
Never again shall I fall to such demons,
The demons of horror,
Which one-day shall fear me as if I was,
Fear itself.

Contorting A Shrine

The anger left inside,
The rage yet unfulfilled,
Till such time as bearable,
And never later.
To live in fear of such disillusions,
To guard at all times against the unknown deceit,
So i may have been created but I can never be owned,
And what little is left,
Now rests tattered and torn.

Essence Of Solitude

How shall you redeem yourself?
For the moment of restitution has long since passed,
For which one of my sins is a price so great?
Is it my disbelief or my thoughts nourished by hate?
With every sin I feel my pride tear,
From the very seams that all but me once held dear,
How I worship my sanity’s remains,
Melting to ashes again and again.
Then from these ashes emerges my fate,
Like a Phoenix resurrected in toxic waters of hate,
Life drains from my body and leaves me estranged,
Then do I ridicule my lord for His efforts in vain.
My torment, my pain,
My misery remain,
Let bygones be bygones,
And life be death.

Jilted Voice Of Rage

From the realm of the demons,
The evil inside my head,
Decree upon me to kneel at thy very best,
To repress thy faith, to denounce thy world,
To subdue thy soul and enter their stronghold.
I then perish into the mist of wrongs,
That the twilight casts forever long,
During its reign over mortals until dawn prevails,
And washes the silence away.
Then let there be life, yet again,
Joy to the tormented, as the world to a child,
Born innocent but left to die.

Opening Words Of Sorrow

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
Stricken with pain, desire and lust,
Torn apart from the ones he loved,
Gone too soon… never to return,
May his soul rest in peace.
