EXPLORING BEYOND

I travel far and across;
Within a finite known,
And to an infinite unknown

A very complex expedition;
Within infinite layers of finite,
And to finite layers of infinite

The journey within limits;
Limits me on to my limited known,
And journey beyond my limits
Takes me to enormity of unknown

Where, what I am thinking now
Definitely unknown to my little known
But my known is feeling so blessed
In peaceful palms of a greater unknown

AN ABORTIVE EXPLORATION

Life emerges from zilch
For the yearn of living, embraces life
Travel from a nothing to an extinction

Earth, to sprouts a fragile stalk
Endows all power to rip her bosom
To gratify her yearning to dump it

Colors for the yearn of recognition
Embraces the light with all admiration
Same light confiscates colors after prime

This voyage is an abortive exploration
Commences from darkness of nonentity
And perish into cosmic light of time

SPELLBOUND

Spruced in time
Amid and surrounded
By net of moments

Shirking a moment
For a moment or covet
Fleeing from jaws of time

And marvel on the trend
Death of moment results
Death rendezvous with time
Take life into vastness

What will happen?
Will it be a pleasure or treasure?
When I will break a net of these moments
And flee myself from nets of time

Succession will surely
Take me out of the existence
Of reason and wobbly presence, and
Take me into vast lands of cosmic fortitude

And failure will honor me
The unchanged divine mortality
That relentlessly honors me philosophy
Of transformation to a undying eternity

THE EPIC

Inimitable preeminence
As life; as decreeing power
Neither entity nor appearance
Appeared on stage of existence
And would disappear
From phase of subsistence

As form of highest oomph
With unique privilege
Of having all the energies
Revolving around me as epic

Privileged, and sitting on prestige
Among all living energies
Revolving within parameters of life
No power has aptitude to challenge
The greatness of my persistence

As solitary engaging power
Moves and revolves around life
Engages life, relates life
And communicates across life

After leading my this epoch
Will transform as form of subliminal
And transform myself to another prestige

FATE, AN ETERNAL FINALE

On the rippling surface of boundless ocean
Sailing on a little Canoe called life
On a very lonely ,solitary voyage
In a diminishing period of light
between one darkness to another grievous sinister

To the scope of an eye could travel
I see nothing but mysterious space
Between running time and fading light
which I can not see till I shut my eyes

Sailing on juggling and dancing waves
Of an endless and aimless carpet of water
I started the journey on high hopes and dreams
With all the energies and power of dawn

I trusted the oars of motivation
And started paddling with reasons
Fighting a turbulent colossal ocean

I travelled as far as I could
but after wasting all my energies
I realized I had reached nowhere
Reaching the same point at every point
and embraced nothing
But an enormous body of water

After exercising all my powers of my prime
With no power and a dying time
Throwing oars into the vastness of the ocean
Left myself on the mercy of slappy waves
As light faded away and blackness emerged
Shutting the eyes from light is not an option or choice
It was the only way left till the darkness covers me
With its enormous weight and insistent shadows
