*After the darkest days
beyond the harshest experiences
the soul still smiles
that’s the secret of life*
*Even in the silence of my tongue
my heart is eloquent
the one who listens
knows me well*
*Coz death comes home
a compulsive visitor
in your joys or sorrows
the wise open the door
smile gracing the soul*
*Unbeknowest to me
I held forth a promise
a seedling that grew wild yet strong
in the harshness of time and chance
when recovering from amnesia
the moment I acknowledged
the promise that I am
I know I exist*
*When at last you came
I had put up my hopes
dusty dreams were thrown out of my cupboard
in the nook and crannies of my heart
debts and ditch sat side by side
but then you came
opening a chink in my armor
spreading like fragrance in my head
and it seemed like a good life again*
