Why Love so Unfair?

   Why Love so Unfair? Those who can love And could find their halves Are fortunate Or so. Never they preach About oblivion they seek A soul mate on each bow. I, where careless tears shed To find a mere resolute, fade Into fanciful moisture_ Fumes of insecurity, Surreal Impasse lit it, Although for an emotional furniture! In vain I Cry For a thousand try, To love in back of what! With a face like Othello, In just Shakespeare, it’s mellow For Desdemona to spare a- ‘but!’. Hope is lulling And Age is calling, The seeker is a fake; Love is all, In it you fall Without a result to make. Just like this, My fellows beseech And Imagination of their own. It’s fatally rude For me to be crude! And state what is already known! Background - "A faded oil paint, considered an abstract, portrays the unpredictable love" The narration here is a normal guy, he just likes to state something that we already know. But the twist lies in his dialect, the imageries he used, and the comparison he detai...

Father's Upbraiding

 Father's Upbraiding


I don't know What's your problem and don't
Know why you can't do a single thing right.
You just stare at blankness, same as the fish
Can shuffle his eyes before being caught.
Do you know how shameful it is? For
it held me back when I try to support you
Son, you only mess up everything that I built;

I wonder what you lack as I
Am not so bad in raising a motherless child.
Proud is your brother who is an example
Of prosperity and have a healthy life where
You only are a disgrace and a failure.

Background - "An abstract of a Father and Son"


  • This is my first attempt at the 'puzzle-poetry' prompt, although it is written in free-verse poetry format.
  • Puzzle Poetries are those which have a unique pattern, and only you can have a complete understanding of when you are able to decipher that pattern. Somethings it can revert back the whole meaning of the poem, once you undo the pattern.
  • Just like this poem; for a reader, it will sound like a father's rebuking rather than his upbraiding. But only when you dig deeper you will understand the reality. Fathers have a unique way to encourage their children, they often resort to scolding and stuff and but ultimately what they want is our well-being and nourishment. Same as it sounds, this poem is written particularly on that note-
  • Take the first word of each line and form a sentence with them. Then you will find the underlying meaning of the poem which is nothing but 'a father encouraging his child'.

Patience

  Patience It is a gift of Bliss to have patience, A prolific symbol over a sordid Strive; Though in motion we live, in stillness We breathe, A foreboding loss of vehemence and pride. A thing we sought, in a life of need_ Where people stray to find; It is Wait, the patience of uncertain joy That gives us a peace of mind. For Beauty we worship, Even the incapability of our hold, Still, for being ugly can we disown  The distinction of pure Gold? There begins the drama of life, All emotions got a role to play; A knight called sadness slays the king, Happiness by name or it may! The play moves to Act V, Where we wait for the End; A climax is the last thing, Believe me, even I would faint! Bless thee! For Patience, The audience kept their seats; It enriches the manacles of Seekers at their forsaken forfeit! For what we wait in oblivion of life, All pangs and sorrows, answer me! Don’t be dumb to swear the name, Almighty knew who he is_ He kept us alive, he makes us to believe In tom...

Is It Love?

 Is It Love? Once I was born, in this world, to breathe, And they say it is a natural phenomenon of love and heat; The true love, is it? As they say indeed, Or just a hallucination, of each other’s need! As I came to know the actual testimony of love, The world seemth, out of true affectionate hub; My daily life goes on with this same question to Jove, If there is left, for our current race, any hope? At last when I learn human bondage, out of dependency, The fallen pieces, give it a ring, over my efficiency; It became all clear, love as a word, is just man’s insolvency, The obsession prevailed, o’er something, as a certain deficiency. Prithee God, doest not give ideas, to this civilized hierarchy, A man just needs, solace of empathy, to manifest true autarky. Background - "A Wondering Child at Dusk" I remember writing this poem as a graduation treat for my English teacher, who celebrated my high school English final's result, prescribed as Outstanding. Especially it is m...
