Blitzkrieg

From the ashes we emerged

Like a phoenix

Full of youth n vigor….

Worth undermined

And skill doubted

Our nemesis it was supposed to be…..

But proved ourselves to the world

Rose to the call of battle

Unflinching n undaunted

A lightning attack we made

Vanquished the entire army……

The clarion of victory reverberated thru the field

Arduous task accomplished

Victorious we stood

Unscathed……

Champions we are…

Undisputed kings - Blitzkrieg

Halo around you, I thought to be,
But a cloud I turned out;
Mar your glow,
Let you not shine bright.
Tie you down so tight,
Never let you free.
In a cage I bind you,
Rocks on ur back..
Even tears i've made you shed.
Yet you like me...
A moonbeam I tried to anchor,
Wings I tried to clip,
In turn you I blamed for wanting to fly,
Oh, cruel I am!
A dog I tried to make of a lion.
Worthy not your forgiveness,
Fly away, my love!
Sieze the sky!
This world can't bind you.

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man ?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand ?
How many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea ?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free ?
How many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky ?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry ?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind. 

-Bob Dylan

The waves carressing the shore,your breath on me.
Rain to a plant-your voice
Two suns in the sky when you smile
Stairway to heaven, your arms
Your presence...
The apotheosis in my life,
The only divinity my soul percieves.
Even a momentary absence,
My heart cries out in anguish.
In your life mine is
Without you, zilch.
Leave me not, ever
In your love, my immortality.

-Prats

Count the days,

Count the hours,

For a glimpse of you.

Wait all day for dusk,

Only to see the dark clouds playing jigsaw in the sky.

I lie in wait all night for my moon,

Lucky to chance a moment with him before dawn breaks.

And so on it goes...

Hoping against hope to see the moon every night...

Even while he's asleep,

Even on his days off.

O my moon! never can I get enough of you,

Only the memories to last me through.

-Prats

Where art thou?
In your quest I go,
No hurdle too big.
On your lap let me lie,
While the songs of your valour I hear.
To your arms I'll surrender,
None taketh me away.
Your kiss, the eternal one, I'd like
Forever in dreams I'll lie.
Even thy name...
Such peace it brings,
To slumber we go,
Away from pain.
Up, up and away from sorrow,
O death, embrace me!
Eternal happiness I seek.

They walked along the winding lane
He holding onto her, with love, it seemed.
'Where are we going?', asked she.
'To my house, of course', he assured...
'A lot of food you'll get,
Friends to play with,
Never a worry to wet your eye.'
With a smile and a spring
She frolicked all along the way.
Home they reached, a lovely one...
So much care she was given
She burst at her sides,
So happy she never had been before.
One day, for a walk they went...
'Where are we going now?', asked she.
'Too many questions you ask, dear one,
Do not worry when I'm with you,' he replied.
And on they walked.
Reached....a flight of stairs they met.
'Worry not sweetheart, for I'll carry you'
And so he did up the stairs,
While her eyes swimmed with tears of love.
On a table he laid her,
Petting, pacifying....and said
'Close your eyes, a surprise I have for you,'
Eyes closed, a smile on her lips...she waited
A peek she thought she'll sneak,
In time to see the butcher's knife fall.
With a look that said
 'What did I do wrong?'
The lamb died, innocently confused.
'Sorry', the butcher murmured,
'Better now than later'.
Pity he didn't hear the lamb's soul cry,
'I love you, still.'

Humans we are
Yet why aren't we?
Love we speak, hate we act
Selfish for us,
Selfless, well... for us too.
In beauty we bask,
But nature we destroy.
Unmaterialistically materialistic we are
Know not which is which.
Peace we look for,
Violence we need.. to find it.
Happiness we set out for,
But path of sorrow we choose.
For truth we quest,
To become lies.
Savage we are, though sophisticated.
Merciless we are yet charitable.
A paradox to humanity
Yet human we are...
Aren't we?

-Prats

As the horizon spans in front of my eyes
Watching  life pass by
I wonder what I'd set out for...
Happiness, I think it was,
But sorrow came along-
So much comfort it gave,
I drowned in it;
So used I got to it
Happiness I cared not anymore-
Far too hard it was to find
And only one life I have.
So, sad I chose to be!
Grief overtook my world
Promising sorrow for years to come.
I danced with joy(oops...I meant grief)
Happiness withdrew,
On the verge of extinction.
Then I happ to chance the horizon again one day,
As the sun set behind the mountains
I let out a smile quite accidentally
(I had almost forgotten how to smile, you see.)
And it struck me...
What had I set out for?
Happiness, wasn't it?


-Prats

Insecurities like ghosts haunt me,
That of the past,
That of the future,
Sucking the life out of the moment.
In clutches i'm put,
Release nowhere in sight.
So tight the shackles of fear,
Instilled so deep...
My skin is raw.
Even the moonbeam i'm scared to hold,
Fear the beam loses its shine.
But my only beacon of hope it is,
In this darkness of insecurity.

-Prats

He messaged and thus, began everything!

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

- John Lennon

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?

-W. H. Davies

Were you afraid that this person would occlude your very being,
that your life would become the baby and nothing else and that -
this is the most important thing - you wouldn't mind?

- Joanna Smith Rakoff (A fortunate age)

Voice of love I heard that never spoke,
Call of life I heard that never beckoned,
Real everything was but in a dream,
Days of sunshine in the dark,
Love I felt that never was,
Joy of absolute sorrow.
Life I live of death,
An end to a never meant to be beginning.


-Prats

Love my heart rained..
So much...
Monsoon in my mind started
Your thoughts like bolts thundered
My feelings into a storm raged
Love poured...
A time warp of torrents
Into a maelstrom of memories I was sucked
To the abyss deep
Fathoms how many, I know not.
Your hand I needed
A hold in the dark.
Only to grab fire..
So bright, my love couldnt dampen.
My only fault...
To rain..


-Prats

Silence of sorrow,
Deafening it is,
My ears bleed.
Darkness of the day,blinding it is,
My eyes hurt
Music of love, cacophonous,
My soul cries.
Touch of a flower,
Thorns I feel,
My flesh bleeds.
Wilted my soul has in your light,
Only flesh remains,
Wounded and scarred from your love,
Know not how I breathe still.


-Prats

Life I reclaim that which  I gave you,
Smile I got back that died when you left,
Colour my eyes see that  were blinded by flowing rivers
Happiness tangible through the unfathomable sorrow
Songs I sing now, for myself, your nightingale no more
Only love,on the path of damnation
Never I wish to chance again

-Prats

Two worlds I live in
Asleep and awake
So real both are
Know not which is which
Suspended between the two....
Confounded even more.
Groggy I wake up from both

Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." — Albert Einstein

The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.”
- Frank Loyd Wright

In the darkest hours,
When the sun dares not awake,
The whimpering wind stirs not a leaf,
Thou wilt come...
Arising from the glowing horizon,
Light of a thousand moons',
Shattering darkness like a glass,
Pouring light into every crevasse...
Thou cometh...
With Imperial radiance,
Even the heavens bask in thy light.
O, my Moon! your beauty the world can't surpass.
Blessed I am
With thy sublime presence!


-Prats

What is it we are actually doing?
So caught up in life, we forget we live-
Until the moment of death,
Only to look back with resentment and regret.
So short our lives, on which we have no control,
yet we screw up every moment of it,
In pursuit of happiness;
Happiness not from within but substitutes so temporary,
We make them our life and cling on forever.
Everything takes a backseat including life,
In this race for a name,
Our own name at risk of obliteration.
So fast we are running, scared to stop,
Fear life might catch up...
Only to die one day, alone,
Without a loved one to shed a tear.
For never had we time for anyone, loved or not.
What a life we lead- that of death?
Or does death have a better life?

-Prats

Darkness leaked out the fortified wall
A beam of sunshine made way,
Butterflies came along
Feed on the flower that reblossomed.
Ballad of love my heart sang,
So melodious...
A nightingale I became once more


-Prats

Ethereal touch,
Sublime love,
Surreal kiss,
Bliss in each other's arms
Heaven when you come home..
A paradise we've made
On the cloud of joy,
A dream it seems,
So real yet an illusion.


-Prats

On a hegira down my memory

Yours were a zephyr

Spring's first flower your smile

Sparkling stream your words

A dream in a dream our escapades

Heavenly twilight your endearments 

Winter sun your voice

An oasis your hug

An illusion it seems, your memories

Etched so deep never to fade

Sunshine they brought

And rain too

Only to walk on a rainbow everafter.
