Will vs destiny

free will.....
choices to make
consequences to face
do we have that free will?
or......
are they limited?
destiny.....
no choices to make?
accept whatever comes?
all are fated?
life has to go on?
are we one of them?
are we controlled
by divine will?
or.....
are we controlled
by human will?
our life is determined
by divine will?
or.....
human will?

He, my dear friend

a courages person is he
for he encourages
only do the good
a confident person is he
for he gives
confidence to go on with life
a determine person is he
for he does
what he plans
a loving person is he
for so much of love
has he for you my Lord
a loving person is he
for so much of love
has he for the people and universe
a caring person is he
for so much of care
has he for the people around him
once......
when confidence was lost
when life was almost ended
when so much of pain
i went through
he, my dear friend
he, my divine friend
his prayers and cares
helped me so much
to go on with this life
now.....
he, my dear friend
he, my divine friend
so much pain
so much torture
so much suffering
is he going through
my dear Lord
show that you care
show that you love
help him to recover
for i know
only you can heal him

(specially dedicated to my dear friend)

when things go strange - cyclopseven

when the nude laughs
at the fully clad ones
when the mules
calls donkeys fool
when the cows stop oozing milk
and goats start mooing
when the moon get angry with sun
and sun refuses to brighten the moon
when water comes out dry
during the monsoon,
when fire's heat an antartica
and the artic's cold a savannah
when man start reading pictures
and looking at words,

know you my friends out there
mother nature is wryly preparing herself
for another dissolution.

the more i see - by cyclopseven

the more i see
the better i unlearn
the better i unlearn
the more i see
oh Lord
what's this
wondrous tale of mystery
that shroud the egotism?

Moiety
















Continuum...
Psi trailing you
trough
time and space
i try to pin
down my motives
love or lust
or a strange
soul connection
of yester lives
lived together ?
i scrutinize
destiny's blueprint (the nadi manuscript)
where the past
and present
merge
On this earth school.
Spiritual shakeups
jolt the being
forcing a deeper look
at existence
question
the finality
of Time
the limits
of Space.
As deeper truths
stare me
in the face
I bow my head
and
surrender
to the timelessness
the ceaselessness
of
our love
our souls....

You Said...
We are two loose end
sstill curved into the shape
of a knot
that
once tied us together
boundwe reach within
to feel its shape
alongthe cords of our existence
rippling beneath the surface
like some silent tide
sometimes rising
sometimes swelling
sometimes receeding
sometimes swamping
all the while
overwhelming us
we reach within
and feel the shape
of that knot
we were its heart and body once
we were its life and soul
we were us once
we are loose ends
two loose ends
still curved into
the shape
of a knot

ashes - by cyclopseven

ashes of dissolution
remnants of ultimate existence
of what becoming
and unbecoming of creation
reminds me of my uncharted breathing
that i am but a nought
in this unplumbed universe.

materialism - by cyclopseven

the asailing thoughts
camouflaged with desires
building castles of sand
within the mind of man
just to be washed away again and again
by the asailing desires in the twilight of life
telling man a story
that material world is just a temporal gain
the spiritual is the main.

nirvanic wish - by cyclopseven

liberate me my mother
the cosmic energy all pervasive
from the cycle of thoughts
that besmears me layer by layer;
allow me single thought
but a blissful knot
in love i shall be with you
kissing the love unseen
soothing the soul in eternal affair - nirvana.

Past - total dissapearance? - by cyclopseven

strange indeed to believe
that past is a history
yet we continually wallow in misery
by product of history!
if bygone be bygone
why man turn back to see
every steps he made, and,
every slips he made?

strange indeed to see how fast past enters
as every second strike at lightning speed;
have man learned from the past?
nay, i would yell in a thunderous voice;
if man have learned so
the past would remain a history
but woes of man is the story of history.

if living in the past lead us nowhere
why must i be sad of each farewell
if living in the past lead us nowhere
why man rejoice for every meeting
only to say with regret of meeting
"I miss you all".

is past an easy carbon
to be erased by mind stubborn?
is past truly unwelcomed
that to get rid of it is a whole lifetime?
is past never a mystery
that keep reminding us of the histories?

is past truly gone
that many writes lengthy poems?
is past a mere figment
of a mental layer unknown?

is past really PAST
or is it still breathing alive
amidst the thoughts that form the mind?

is past really a matter vanished
that yesterday's crude remarks
fail to exist in today's matured mind?

is past is whatever
that lived everywhere
yet it is nowhere now?

Past vs present

past is a history
present is a mystery
why think of past?
there is so much in present
past is a lesson
you have learned
present is a future
you have to live
no doubt
there is no present
without past
but......
live in the past
lead you no where
live in the present
lead you somewhere
a better life awaits.

No time

knock, knock, knock
anyone in there?
hello! hello! hello!
can anyone lend me your ears?
busy! busy! busy!
everyone seems to be busy
busy with life
busy with work
forgot to live
forgot to live the life
lame excuses are they
where are we leading?
top of the world?
fame?
satisfaction?
what not?
what more?
what a boring life

thoughts and actions - by cyclopseven

when my thoughts rush ahead of my actions
what is there for me to complain against my actions?
when my actions rush ahead of my thoughts
what is there for me to complain against my thoughts?
when thought released ahead of actions
precision not necessarily a compulsion;
when action done ahead of thoughts
compulsively wrong, actions may not become;
amidst uncertainty of burning aspirations
why man cry of laws and orders
and offers endless consolations
in the corner stones???

Real vs unreal

Life is.....
but like a walking shadow
life is.....
but so unreal
in life.....
everything seems to be unreal
in life.....
nothing seems to be real
what is life?
what is real?
what is real life?

passing stages by cyclopseven

i was a baby
was that a death now?
i was a teenager
that too a death now?
i was a youth
where goes the fountain of that youth now?
i am what i am now
when will what i am now
be dead under pile of years to come?

my dear past - by cyclopseven

tell me my dear past
where have you been hiding yourself
that i couldn't trace your trail;
tell me my dear past
where have you locked yourself
so that i can unlock and rectify some errors;
tell me my dear past
where are you buried or cremated
so proper rites i can perform for your peace;
tell me my dear past
why you hate the present so much
that you remain far from it;
tell me my dear past
why you can't invade the future
and tell me a story in the past
so i can re-live a life missed
once again in the present;
please tell me my dear past
why in shadow you forever remain an illusive dove?

please tell me my dear past
the many things that i have placed in your trust
and forgotten.
