Bipolar

Do I know you
Times like these
This is what I think
A world below mine
Now seems to exist

With different works
And strange cloaks
Do I know you
Is what I think

The nights when am lonely
Freezing cold and alone
The night the tasks seems
Lengthy and bore

My salvation fades
An obsession overtakes
And in death calm
I think
What an unlikely place

In what an unlikely place I am
Lost but here
And all I remember is fear
What a strange place it is
Am locked here and
The key too is lost

Oh my thoughts
My love and hate
Why do you remember
The thinks I try to forget

The things that seems hollow
The life that ain't mellow
Now when the time came
When I finally can smile
Without feeling insane

Why do you make me remember
With shivering hands
and teary eyes

Why don't you just surrender
Either to my will
Or my plight

S. Varma

New Starts

We all are lost
We all are mad
Thinking of advices
That we never had

Finding things
We never really had
Thinking of all
We have lost so far

Hold a breath
Search in your soul
Do you see past
Your own dark hole

Colours and patterns
Bright light and sparkle
Buried in there they are
Think again are you
As lost as you think you are

Breath in the mist
Think about trust
Have some faith
In all who you love
And the almighty above

Close your eyes
And let it go
You have a life
And it's never a stop
Just a new start

Thoughts

What are you
Randomness sought
An errant Hobe
A feature in my thoughts

Randomness and sanity
Prized in someone's vanity

What are you
A difficult path
A paved one at that
The way of my thoughts

Roberts poem, Hocus  Pocus
Thinking aloud for the road not taken

What are you
A constant glitch
A diety's uneven stitch
The place of my thoughts

Of destiny's play and faiths say
You write your own 'Nay' or 'Aye'

What are you
A merchants dime
The peripheral vice
A fodder to the wise

Near the surrounding close to the blues
Tell me something that they didn't knew

What are you
Keeping me awake tonight
Fighting me by mine
The only thing I thought tonight

Gum tape standard glue
Tell me the balm of my heart anew

What are you
A broken tale
A Shadowed faith
Shining bright but dead

They are my, thoughts that toy
Things that make me sigh!

Latibule

Latibule is the hidden place
Full of safety and comfort

At nights rough rumbling of fear
In your mother's lap
When you feel surreal
In daydreams and nightmare

A place in between worlds
Where dreams become faith
And isolation nothing to fear
Then say latibule is here

Tormented Soul

Lovely lonely little soul
Are you what I think
Or are you just plain alone

A light in dark oh little one
Tell me how you still
have a spark
In this chromatic world

Lonely oh little bit
Come we will think
A way to heal and
Not to let the red bleed

Oh my Pandora's box
Lovely little cunning fox
Stop hiding the links
Envoloping the dark
And trying to shine
Creasing all the kinks
And praising the elite

Oh my lovely come
Side by side we bleed
Beside me we sow
Grace and curtsying
Oh my lovely little mist
Let's steal one last kiss
Before we bid the archangel.

Dear Death

To fear you or not
You confuse me
Pardon me or not
It's just my soul
That cares for me
Knows the unknown
And the elixir stone
Dear archangel
You amuse me
Take the good
Take the pain
But still get cursed
Who if not death
The lady faith
And her swords edge

Paradise

With a soft kiss on your warm lips
I wonder how did it all end
Things going downward spin
I wonder if am anymore on your head

The touch the talk and the smile
Oh how I hate that memory of mine
The stars that still seem bright
The air cold and me misty eyed

I remember you putting Jewels
on me and my twirling around to show you
Never did it not go right
To steal another kiss from you

Now I just want to see you
Calling out my name
Lunging to me
Cause without you am never the same

Let's see the world and the light
How I want to hold your hand
And not move from your sight
Oh how I miss that life, my paradise
