Satish Verma Poems

Something was sinister
in beautiful night.
The sharks come stealthily
in your eyes.
...

Pain indigo of
half-moon, will travel
from head to toes.
...

In small pieces
you come back to live
in my dark poems.
...

Moon was looking
in my eyes. Time to sink my
ship coming apart.
...

Tell me how to break
the moon, when night weeps
to bring home stars.
...

I let you go
to meet the panther
in his den.
...

In deep silence
my words float in your eyes,
past twilight.
...

I will go quietly,
when moon sleeps,
and stars play the chess.
...

It was a celebration.
You were ready to start
self-questioning.
...

Standing alone
in darkness of stairwell
searching light.
...
