The other side of the Moon

Why huddled up against the wall,
what is it that remains to befall?
It doesn't get gloomier than this
Having forgotten thine archangel's kiss!

It seems that the trick came through
The impish ruse just grew upon you!
Now now, the game's gone too far!
Nay, not too deep is thine scar!

The trick's been played a thousand times
you always knew!
the distant memory stirs,
come, see through!

Scuttle out of the corner,
Come out of the dark
The mind grows calmer,
Come, follow the spark!

There's beauty to creation,
Lo and behold,
filling you with Joy and Elation,
the Universe shall unfold!

Farewell

As I move forth with the new dawn,
Never shalt thou feel forlorn!

For, the new dawn it is,
so brightly shining upon me,
I can glimpse a brighter dawn,
that is rising unto thee!

Our paths may cross,
or may not so, too!
But, somewhere it matters,
that I shook hands with you!

- Aneesh

poet I am

poet I am,
Run out of rhyme,
poet I am,
Nothing really sublime

No doubts to implore
Have I run out of life?
No worlds to explore
Tainted with inner strife!

Nay, I've slumbered a tad
taken a break from life, I had
The ride shall now resume,
I'll rhyme again, I presume!

The Reply (Hell: Part II)

God read my note
and back he wrote,
saying, "Dont bloat..
..At your own Wit
Then you will understand the truth bit by bit

Life is not a hell
as you might tell
You want Life to be smooth and easy
But you are slow and inexplicably lazy.

You have sown the Karmic seeds
In your past lives' deeds,
The fruits of which you are reaping
The fate at which you are weeping.

Knowledge is what you gain
from all this sorrow and pain

You'll learn to live happily in this hell
if you know one thing very well,
The Path to Heaven leads through hell!"

-Aneesh

Hell

Scream or shout,
Or try to get out,
But, you have come this far,
And here you are,

In this miserabe world
which, at you, has hurled
The most difficult task
Why? You can't ask.

What, in life, is your aim
which makes you immortal in God's hall of fame?

Easily said than done,
Survivors of this task are till now none!

You set out on this mission
with a bright future vision

However sincere you are
you can't get any far

Without any hope
you try to elope
Only to be pulled back by an unseen rope.

At last you say,
Death is the only way
for a clean getaway.

But when you do what you were thinking
Alas! You'll be brought back to the same beginning
To try the task again
with all your attempts in vain.

At last it flashes to you,
What is illusion and what is true

At God you will yell
and, calmly, he might tell,
"Yes! Life is a Hell!!!"

-Aneesh

The Key

Thousands of last breaths I've had,
Thousands of times have I gone mad,
Trying to remember the lessons learnt,
Trying to bring back the memories burnt.
The lessons that hold the wisdom's key,
The wisdom that sets the eternal soul free.

Thousandth time did I realize the truth
That, one can always maintain the eternal youth,
Never to forget the lessons learnt,
Always to keep the memories unburnt.

Now the lessons have taught unto me
That, to be set free,
I haven't finished one task yet
And that is to pay back all my karmic debt.
Until that time I decide to stay,
I can always choose to die another day!

- Aneesh

Irony

Yet another day, yet another night...
Yet another fun, yet another fight...

The circle never ends, the circumference never meets
Whatever be the irony, fate never cheats!

- Aneesh

Oh! Devil

Devil waiting in Hell,
Thinking Aneesh is unwell,
But Devil isn't sure,
Whether there's a cure,
to Aneesh's sadness,
to his inevitable madness.

twisted hearts...
crying starts....
someone farts....

I said to the devil "Hey dude"
And the Devil replied "How rude!!!"
And then I realised,
devil is a woman...oh she's a woman!

-Aneesh

You

There I go into murky regions,
Battling out with the deceptive legions,
Darkness engulfed within me,
Trying to hear, trying to see,
Scouring for a reason,
Analyzing the treason,
Who hast stabbed thou?
Where, why, when, how?
The reasons are, but, a few
I suspect it's always YOU

-Aneesh

Poet, am I?

Curses upon curses,
Am lost in my verses,
Entwined with the league of nerds,
I got trailed away with my words,
You cannot call me a poet as a whole,
'tis just a teensy part of my very old soul

- Aneesh
