Beauty And The Beast



Wandering in the moors
With myriad thoughts,
In shadows he hid,
In stillness he crept.


Life and love had gone cold;
Hatred arrived from depths untold.
Creatures eyed him with envious glance;
He was proud of his own stance.


In the howling wilderness
Eyeing with scrupulous attention,
He found her, his ameliorating beauty,
Lost and insecure she was, then.


His vanity unwounded.
His prey defenseless.
His decisions unaltered.
His desires voracious.


He could treacherously agitate her, he didn’t.
He could unsparingly disturb her, he didn’t.
He could scathingly upset her, he didn’t.
For, she became his porcelain doll.


He was immensely attracted to her
Invincible fearless fragrance.
He was so immersed in her mysterious eyes
That his eyes did not wince.


She was tempestuously blinded
In his clandestine love.
She was utterly baffled by his
Incisive reflections of life.


Caught in his own impeccable trap,
The beast fell in love with the beauty.
They began to coalesce
And blended into one.

The Selcouth of Knight and Li’l Girl

Knight: So what if the sun rises from the west? It would still shine!!!!!


Li’l Girl: Totally Knight.
White shores are calling.
The pale moon fades away.
Crimson rays of sun beckoning.
Into the west.
Shining. Shining.


Knight: Pale is the one who has no light
But, the moon continues to glow
It could have stolen a part of the sunshine,
But, what matters is, "it glows".....


Li’l Girl: So, it was the Moonglow.
Right through the air.
It came along in its sparkling aura.
And, yeah. There was "glow".
So bright. So bright.
Swept me off my feet.


Knight: Yes, the moonglow indeed,
bright and beautiful, the sparkling aura.....
Not to forget the stars,
That leave the dark sky bejeweled
Sparkling all through the night...
They never seem to tire.....
But, none could lift me off the ground....
I wonder why????


Li’l Girl: Sensational effects it had on me
Which swept me off the feet.
But, I had been a prey many a times.
Was it forged?
I wonder if I gave in so soon.
I wonder. I wonder.


Knight: Sensational, precisely you do speak
Come down, get back to your feet
You ain't any prey, you should believe
Nothing was forged, it was real indeed
You would have given in soon...
Or, do I say given up and so given in soon
You wonder, yes you do
Try wondering who is the real you
The hunter or the hunted!!!!!


Li’l Girl: I'm going hunting.
I'm the hunter.
I'll bring back the goods.
But, I don't know when.

The wolfs. They came.
The words. They spoke.
So many wasted.
Promises rhapsodized.

Nightfall, in thrall.
Caressing my soul away.

But, my 'Knight in the Shining Armour' says-
“It doesn't have to be this way.
To suffer alive and die their way.
You don't have to be shaken and confused.”

I'm going hunting.
I'm going hunting.


Knight: Why think when
You know you will be back
Isn't that victory good?
With the goods or without.....

Wolfs are a test,
And you would
They never spoke, they howled
You don't be wasted,
Get the prey you seek.....

So if the night falls,
Don't let your soul rest
'Cause with sunrise
Comes another task to survive.....

Your Knight? He is not even his own
And his armour won't shine forever, you know
But, pay heed to those words
For, the Knight fought all odds
Came out of the wilds, alive.....

Hunt, till you are bored
Hunt, till you have hunted for life.....


Li’l Girl: Invincible. Yes, I'm
And, hunting, is my passion.
But, I wish to take solace,
In the tenderness of my heart.
I'm weary and lost....
I need to be someplace else.

For now, it'll be just me.
And, my glistening eyes.
Thirsty lips. Awaiting.
Not for the wolves who howled.
But for the sparkle in my eyes.

Guileless. Warm. I'm.
Endearing love in my soul.
The hunter begins her journey,
In a path never taken before.

As I walk lost in my own world.
In a path filled with fuchsia carnations.
A brown palomino crosses my way.

His words lingered on....
"But, none could lift me off the ground....
I wonder why???"

Why did the Knight say that to me?
What was the reason behind this?



Knight: Hunting you make your passion
It has always been my passionate aspiration
Solace I do get in the blood
Don't know my heart is tender or not.....
Weary you may be, lost you are not...
Hunt for the place you seek to be.....

Wolves do remain
Behind the woods
With their glowing eyes,
They spy on you
Waiting for you to fall weak again
So that they can gobble up
The life that you call tender.....

A path never chosen
Is the path a hunter must be
Fresh territory. More terror
New kill, a new journey.......

A palomino is just one,
You have wild animals to face
Keep your eyes wide open
Not just wolves, even panthers wander....

Forget his words,
They mean something only he knows
He is not weak at all
To be swept of his feet, time and again....
He knows somebody waits in the west
Of the land he belongs to
Hoping he will come back one day
When the autumn sets in
And leaves begin to wither
For he is waiting to be with her
For more than a year
Hope she reads this someday.....

The knight says this to you
In a flow of words only
A poetic challenge he saw
A philosophical poet he became...


Li’l Girl: I fancy your aspiration.
Also, gives me an inspiration.
Your words make me think
Enlightened I’m in a blink.

Knight, thank you for everything.
Words cannot describe
The support. The laughter.
The realizations. Period.

I will still hate the 'respect'ed ghoul.
Empathy.
And, explore.
For, you know, it's not the words.
It's what lies beyond.

Tender is my heart.
Tender is my ghost.
Tender is my night.
Tender is the way I feel.

A lapse in my step is misperceived.
Intentions deceived.

I’m a secret. I’m a drop.
I’m the flame which burns the wolves.
I’m a twisted-sorted-tangled story.
Welcome to my life, wolverines.


Knight: Knight doesn't seek gratitude,
He was ordered to pull you across
He may not be a part of the journey
Through the woods, amongs the wolves
But, he realised your need ...

He just told you what you would anyways know
As you move ahead in your Journey
Journey through the wilds,
The journey you'll cherish for Life!!!!!

Come to 'respect'ed ghoul,
Don't empathize and explore
They are just words you hate
Not the actions that you should never forget..

Tender heart, in a tender ghost
During the tender night,
With so many tenders,
Tender would be the feelings that flow......

Yes, be a secret, be a drop
Be the flame, but not burn the dogs......
Be like the phoenix, rise from the ashes,
The story is pretty plain,
A journey!!!!!!

A smoky stupor

My dreams are deceiving me.
My emotions are swindling with me.
My thoughts are lurking in the darkness.
My hopes have gone astray.

It seems too far.
It seems too deep.
Irresolutely I stand by the door.
I cannot seem to escape this insentience.

If it's magic

The dusky beam impinging upon the vast sky.
Shades of crimson reflecting through pale white clouds.
The pathway composed of uneven red bricks.
Wrought iron lamp posts with bright yellow glow.

I walked quietly humming my favorite song.
Preoccupied in my own world.
Unstirred senses. Calming thoughts.
I did not anticipate the rampant blow.

My footsteps came to a halt.
When my eyes met his ashen grey eyes.
I could hear my heart pounding so loud.
My cheeks flushed hinting a tinge of carmine pink.

Everything seemed distorted after that.
As he came closer and closer. Closer and closer.
I was enthralled by his bewitching smile.
His chestnut brown hair blending with his chiseled features.

The aura around me was suffusing from his glow.
The journey of my life bedazzled upon his advent.
Tempestuous emotions enveloping me.
We knew we would never even reach the edge of eternity.

Unhappily Did They Live Thereafter

The night was dark and starless.
Dreary lanes with no allusion of life.
Translucent rays of moon
Reflecting upon a dead tree.

The bungalow was situated amidst the forlorn lanes.
She sat timidly in a dimly lit corner.
Deep velvety red tapestry hanging by the wall.
Her apprehension swelling by the moments passing.

She felt hollow from inside.
She felt bruised from inside.
She was losing grip of her life.
She was losing the significance of her life.

The pieces of her heart battered and smashed.
The pieces of her soul scattered in front of her.

His words lingered on.
“I will go very far away.
I will never come back.
Although, I will never be able to forget you.
For you are my glistening dreams.
Your beauty is mesmerizing.
Your love is inconceivable.
You are the ray of hope,
At the end of a gloomy night.
You gave a new meaning to my life.
You taught me how to live.

The thought of leaving you rips my heart.
Everything seems to be falling apart.
Disheartened, I cry in agony.
For, I will never be able to elucidate.
I don’t know how I will survive without you.
My life is now a dark endless tunnel.”

She had stared at him in disbelief,
When he was walking away from her.
She had eyed his disillusioned structure,
Taking away with him, her quintessence.

She shuddered by the faint noise
She heard from a far away lane,
As she sat timidly in a dimly lit corner,
Waiting for him. Waiting endlessly.
Waiting for eternity.

I Wish To Be Set Free

I feel trapped in the realm of this world.
I feel weary in this quest for life.
I feel lost in the search for happiness.
Incorrigible boulevards. Murky air.
Immeasurable duties. Countless tasks.
Inherent baseness. Depraved spirits.
This is not what I seek.
This is not what I want.
I yearn for a tranquil place.
I crave for an undaunted existence.
I wish to be liberated.
I wish to be set free.

Unleashed

By the time this night is over,
I’ll rouse the sleepy shores.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll touch the shimmering stars.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll swim in the unfathomable ocean.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll fly in the cosmic sky.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll dance with the dazzling moon.
You are my shore.
You are my star.
You are my ocean.
You are my sky.
You are my moon.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll unfurl the mystery that lies within you.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll fill this overwhelming silence.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll satiate your infinite desires.
By the time this night is over,
I’ll make you mine, endlessly.

The Relentless Fear

Blurry images.
Pulsating beats.
I gasp for breath.
The invisible walls closing in on me.
The reason is inane.
The occurrence is unknown.
The fear is substantive.
I’m lost in the muffled silence.
I’m trapped in a deep anguish.
I tremble.
I shudder.
It devours me in an unimaginable pain.
I succumb.

Velvet

It flows into my ears.
And takes me to a faraway land.
Maple trees and blue skies.
Dewdrops on lush green grass.
It fills the void.
It soothes the senses.
It ignites the flame.
Melodramatic and pondering in thoughts.
I gaze at the vast endless sky.
Your demeanor is a mystery.
Hide it. Or reveal it.
The voice belongs to me.
It is my essence.
