S JYOTI RANJAN Poems

In the solitude,
in the deafening silence of mid-night,
yearn for you.
...

Alone, all alone as you are treated with cosmetic courtesy in love,
Alone, all alone as you are spoiling your thoughts taking turns through the phases of night,
Alone, all alone as you have sold your soul to an apparently nonchalant being,
Alone, all alone as you are refused to be understood,
...

My eyes shall wait, so shall me,
Little more than they could actually,
Hoping against hope for you to come,
Darling, but without much aplomb,
...

Little more than you love me, I love you,
Little more than you hate me, I hate you,
Little more than you need me, I need you,
For, these 'little mores', make you, 'the you' and
...

Where shall I go? For I am made roofless by time,
She refused to hold my soul,
Naked, and meek as my soul shivers out in the celestial cold,
Traversing accross galaxies for the elixir of her love,
...

You are the envy of the moon,
Nature has perhaps sketched you with a
penchant for beauty and perfection,
This may sound platitudinous though,
...

Agony of failing kidneys,
Rise of creatinine and the hope to make it fall,
Hypertension, and the hope to make it balanced,
Tastelessness of renal diabetic diet,
...

Peeping out of the car window,
As I gazed deep into the dark and cloudy sky,
As I was unmindful and engrossed in the vague exercise of counting the beads descending from the sky,
Suddenly you appeared in between the tangible ambience and the intangible thoughts,
...

That must adorn her hands someday,
Or is it today?
But whenever it will,
It shall play with her feelings,
...

Men left behind, world is so unkind,
For those who come for you are long gone,
For no search, no beaming torch, no one seeking a find.
...
