GREY

GREY
In the underworld of top flights,
Good deeds neither appear appalling nor cheered,
Till the aging hair turns colourless.
The future of the blind, hopeless,
While the eyes 're still unsure who to see;
...
The cloud exhibits achromatic colours
Difference couldn't have been told,
Between black and white of tough time
Neither was right distinct from left-
Red begat orange; till ages fall;
...
A man in his prime, never wanted to
go down the grave, unfulfilled;
Oh! What a life of drama with less scenes
The present, unsure; Future still faintish
Then, as days roll, time flies;
...
Lads derailed from good trailing paths
The good deeds in the past, seem unworthy
"Why should we stick to destructing ways? "
Life's set of scent leaf; Odour, less perceiving
Fraudulence seem appalling over nights.
...
Now, grown children we have to cater,
Rights unwardy of the gloomy future
Our feet sliding off, from top we stand'
Future seen from bottom, unnoticed!
Indistinct, grey threads evolve from beneath

I'M A LONE NINGER

I'M A LONE NINGER I saddled my cradle in a lone way Yet, comfort zone seeks I My beddings laid fallow on bed My rail wallowed without trails Wherefore do my pain born from?  ... Perhaps, a vessel channelled me on Back on track race, motive to trace My ancestral origin behead nowhere For I lost grand and ground of care Yet, cracks and strokes at befitting future ... The fight fought, such beyond sought Presumably, pre-seeable; seen before then Now my heart heralds soothing breeze Without hope from hopeful points Yet, my bones wax stronger to life ... My bond, my half; mentored mine in me My origin stimulated independence My ancestors simulated I, such to grow For my (he)arts are borne of hatred My heart burns, born of confusion ©Tex (2017)

LOVE WITHOUT STAIN

*LOVE WITHOUT STAIN * Never think she loves him wholly, All his faults are locked securely Never believe love is blind, In a closet of her mind ... All his indecisions folded Like old flags that time has faded Limp and streaked with rains And his cautiousness like garments ... Frayed and thin, with manystain Let them be, oh, let them be There is treasure to outweigh them His proudness will sharply stir them ... Gentleness to beast and bird, As the moon in moving water And a tenderness too deep To be gathered in a word. ©Tex (2017)
