Feroze Varun Gandhi Poems

To pass over in silence
The preservation of love
Brutalised into evolving
Into the mould
...

If creation is not the answer to the conscious
Is it the releasing of the pain
If you held yourself up to the habit
Wouldn't everything be a spiral
...

Searching myself as an innocent
Demand: sucking forth
Beyond the hum of desperation
Awaiting the steps
...

This is the house of the shadows
There is this secret
which grows within us everyday
Slowly, we change, to keep the secret
...

I am not at war I tell myself
As I hold these captured silences
As trophies in my war of repose
My hands are too large for these shackles
...

Only the weak hide their scars
I want you to scar me
and claim me as a pawn
in your greater challenge
...

The wrong end of a sand glass
All born in different universes
But the same mind,
Born over and over again
...

I woke up to the
The rising of the hum
The sky a disappointed blue
I've been so far away at times
...

I lay my memories down
on this forsaken path
I've taken off my mask
It was starting to bleed
...

I live in a beautiful cage
Where my pain is light on your eyes
Where my tears are delicately timed
to offer no real surprise
...
