Ashwin Satyal Poems

It was a dream, a dream i had
Lasted for just a moment but made me sad.
There she was, below the oak tree
The sky was blue and the birds were free.
...

Its been a month since uve gone,
Everything is messed up;
And all the things are yet to be done.
...

Faith is all I need,
A hatred for love.
As flowers before the seed,
All i ask is forgiveness for my deed.
...

I was so happy, I finally got a date.
I cursed myself, I was already so late.
Graciously, I saw the Heaven's gate.
I met my fair lady, finally I met my lady...mate! !
...

Oh death, my beautiful death! Where are you?
For the past two decades, Im waiting just for you!
I shall not fear you, I shall not be embrioled
Grasping and kissing you, black roses shall fall from the sky welcoming you.
...

Im not a poet, Im not a philosopher
All I do, is describe the word 'suffer'
Yes suffer, the holy word for demon.
A demon is just an artist,
...

Life didnt turn out the way I thought it would.
Sorrow, frustration and a broken heart; thats what I got.
But if life does have anything to offer me,
This wouldnt be my last tequila shot.
...

All I needed was a call,
All I needed was a smile from you.
Blowing up a midnight cigarette,
All I needed was a reason to forget you.
...

The years have passed,
The time has begun,
I dont know for how long my life will last.
...

It was the winter of 1942,
Getting involved in war was something I had to do.
All day long, I witnessed the torture of Jews,
The Red Army crossed the border, States had got the news.
