4. The Life endsThe judge raised his mallet
Announce he his – my decree
The court in silence smiled
As they sensed their victory.
I bowed my head not in shame
For I was – by proclamation – insane
Spoke him thus – altering my life:
“Hey you! I know not
Why thy have come here.
While, you could have lived,
Without stepping in here.
But as of now, you have
Condemned yourself to stake
So I decree – you deadon the eve of freedom day.
You shall die – like mad
As you have claimed insane
The current would burn
Your eyes to ashes and
Let the thoughtless brain – fried.”
I stood their meek
Blesses I thought of me
I die a death of sanity
To cherish the ever dark
No more the burdens
No more the twilights
I am now a man – who knows
Neither good – nor bad.
3. The Sanity ends“Penalise me not, I am chaste
I was a pawn not the king
I acted, but think I did not
Plot was his, me only a part.
Alas! Me could have been any
None could have stopped
As I stand here, could have many
But for fate – that deceived
So penalize me not for its act
I am just a puppet of destiny.”
The court in its very silence
Seemed to hold the axe aloft
I turned wild in rage
An anger born of fear unknown
I screamed again at one and all
“Hey! All you men of mind
Stare not thus with no shame
What moral right you behold
To slay the weak man by strength.
My curse will endure me
And ye all shall suffer –
Do not kill me – I am INSANE”
2. The Night Ends
In the darkness multiplies
The night crossed my shut eyes
A thin string of light shone
A messenger from the day shone
Sly, with cunning, in devil’s time.
I swung my hands blinding him
I was the master here in the dark
Dare not any invade my park,
Here, my mistakes are unseen
The blunders of mine or no more
Unknown in the dark – orphans
Responsibility I can shirk now
As none can prove otherwise.
But what is this? – he sees me
It can’t be, oh no! Never –
The sun cannot raise today
I forbid it, I did for ever
But the devil hides – me an orphan
I am no win the heat of the light
God! Why me – I ask, I scream
But today the court convenes.
1. The Day EndsHunched and crushed by sorrow
I await the twilight to pass
In that park old, besides the pond.
The sun seems slow and tender
The water shimmers in pleasant calm
As if, strangling me, my breath
In an exhibition, of qualities
That has forsaken me for long.
Still… nowhere else to go…
I ponder on the pains of my world
The setting sure should absolve me
Or I am a man with insistent curse.
Thus, I await, the sky to turn red
That alone forebodes the end of day.
Slowly, but surely the skin declines
The western sky – in a dilemma color
Many stand enjoying the splendor
Arms in arms – youthful wonder.
To me alone, this has to end
The dark has to invade the light
Then, I shall walk to home
Assured, burdens are gone –
At least, until the light again invades.
“Hey you! I know not
But as of now, you have
