Deserted Abandonment

Grains of sand kept scratching those hard palms to get out..
The wrist kept on holding them tighter..
But failed to hold onto it..
Finally the wrist opened up to the open sky to let them fly..
Sad yet satisfied, the palm just rested on the coarse ground..
Injured it was, by the twiddling of the rude sand..
Just watched it fly away..
Stones on the ground weeped , but were helpless..
The sanctity of the union was lost..
While deserting, they did not even try looking back..

Scarred yet hopeful half lit, those fingers just gazed back smiling..

THE ILLUMINATED ECLIPSE

Eyes red as wine with anger, distress and disappointment,
Life as pale as the leaves fall in the gloomy autumn with an unpredicted predicament.
Raw flesh bargained for at the peddler at an rampant rate,
Rooms filled with chests of gold and..
Hearts filled with dishonor and scarred stigma;
Pretentious yet flawlessly striving among the normal,
Spending moments to realize the disgrace, the path traced
And the path yet to trace.
Few of the innumerous tears carrying childhood memories, dry off leaving stains.
Dreams that were never realized;
Choices that were never chosen;
Destiny that never meant forever..
Youth flew like a fast drifting raft,
A bumpy ride it was...
Like a slap on the face, life will suddenly become feeble,
And the flesh will no longer be worthy of...
Sad phase that stayed forever and...
Happiness that got locked in dark shady rooms...
Being a part of the hidden illuminated secrets of the rich;
Lost the identity of owning a family..
A path that was chosen had no way back,
A choice made had no alternatives but to regret..
Its perfect though...
But there's difference.. A huge one..
The eyes dreamt of love and smile at one who deserved,
Now it's just meant to lure, not one, to trade off yourself at higher prices..
Cannot fulfill this dream of going to a honeymoon,
Because every other night is one, where you just get to please;
But not acknowledged for the devotion and the emotions that are offered..
Because, again you are a dirty secret, not proud of...
A doll just who can reciprocate naturally...
Forced or unforced...
That's the only choice you get...


After visiting this part of Singapore one day, I saw the plight of this industry in this part of the world.. where human flesh is of no value and emotions doesn't play a role for anyone...
These verses are dedicated to all those who are trapped in this industry for years and never got the chance to move out and lead a respected life....
