Are'nt you scared?

We think its only humans
who have a population
what about the oceans' tide
it engulfs a whole big nation

lets all get together and dance tonight
cos there aint gonna be another summer midnight
is this how we declared our fate
we chose to ignore the screams from the sky

Grasslands burnt, birds died
and man made walls to hide
we yet have'nt seen the mighty side
any plans to save your lady and your child

lets run away from here
but no one knows to where
when the black hole becomes
big enough to fear
now tell me do you have a second to spare
Are'nt you scared?

------- Rest in peace Uttarakhand

Contained

The entire city is a set
we have full house all night
there are so many colors in the sky
do i see people fly
from the eyes of the ones
contained in boxes for life
its a glittering sunny day
if you let him out anytime
there are faces behind every mask
varities of life suprise everytime
just play the part and you are on
**********
all you know is all you see
and all you see is all you want to see
all that you want is all that you know
expand your zone to horizons unseen

THE BOTTLE MAN


He can't walk, it's so hot, he's talking to himself
He collects bottles from the bin to make his living
Sits under the scroching sun waiting for one more hand to free so he can grab
His life would be the same everday
Under the heat of today
Hunger doesn't suffice so he digs in deeper
Where we all sit in the piano man with breeze and tropial ice tea
Rags on the body and a broken chappal
Patience in his heart
That's his power
Throat llies parched while crushing a hundred bottles under his feet

Three Men

I dreamt of these three men
who loved me beyond the night
they were awakened from the past
could'nt see their faces, I had a blurry sight

Hearing me call them aloud
they came running on the path of my sound
I'd never seen that light before
I'd never felt this desire before

I need to go back in sleep
to brighten my heart, to clear the scene
to know what it was
to know where to find endless beauty in kind

Showered upon auras of three divines
like the heaven came down for me
I'd never seen that light before
but I wish to see it once more!!
