The Man I Met


For I met  a man
Not in the streets of any desert
But we together ran,
On the same road of Life.

In his eyes he had no respect
In his mouth he had no shame.
For him the world was perfect
As for any problem he wouldn't be blame'.

So he moved on in his life,
Leaving the rest behind.
Or did they let him go?
For with him i now bind.

With a humble, elegant smile i walk,
But he walks with his pride
I leave a place with carved laughters,
He exits leaving a great tide.

As we move along this path,
The first thing that he said-
"I have more that thy hath
And I shall live, when thy dead.

For I met a man,
With an indomitable spirit,
As we together ran,
On this road of life.

"Life can do me no harm,
Its simply a  game of dice.
If i get all sixes I do win,
Even if through a pack of lies."

"Nature brings solace of all troubles
So why can't thou play fare?"
"Fare is what cowardess do-
Winning is what champions care."

"What is easy can drag you down
Thy demor only for attention.
For later, thou will have a frown,
Life isn't always Fiction."

"Life is an unreliable blend of Fact and Fantasy,
And I'm the best, that's a Fact.
I will later be in ecstasy,
Thou honesty will have no impact."

For I met a man,
Who gets happiness amidst misery
Tied up together we ran
On the same road of Life.

When shall I find peace,
And Rest within my self again.
I knew this journey won't end with ease,
This man was the biggest stain.

Battles raging within the mind and heart,
He would always choose his mind.
His heart lay there with no will to beat,
As he had become a very dark fiend.

To escape from his all night bickering,
I would sit Quite alone with Heaven.
I feel my heart beat in fear in his presence,
His heart he fed to a Raven.

But closely when I saw this man,
He wasn't so much different.
I couldn't bear the sight of my tears,
A chill to my spine the realization sent.

For I met a man,
Who was none other than me.
With him all my life I ran,
On this lonely road of life.

Pessimism

  School is one of the most boring places i visit nowadays . But that only implies if i am in class or not. Usually i am not but whenever i am, it  ends up that i sit staring at my teachers who is talking stuff which goes right above my head. So the usual pass time for me is either playing Sharades with my pals or drawing caricatures of my fellow classmates. But after a long gap an old hobby of mine came back. I felt like writing a poem. Even though earlier i used to write poems just for the heck of writing and would end up writting on topics like why my mom cried while watching a movie but that was the past ... This time i was in the mood of writing a real poem, a type of poem which i don't like and my parents don't prefer me to write. But i ended up writing it at the last page of my rusted English Language copy. 
     

I admit the topic is still a bit weird but that is what struck me, it is what gave me the chill to write this sonnet. About something which my parents believe i am not. So you can think that this poem was not written by me, but my alter ego who i like to call Luna Moonrider. The name isn't so evil but i bet he(or she..i really don't know cause the name is of a girl) is.
Anyways , here is the poem by Luna Moonrider a.k.a. Niranjan R. Bharati :-

PESSIMISM
As i stand in the midst of darkness,
and evil around me roams,
Ripping me apart with their sharpness
to find in my heart a deep hole.

In me, infested now  it lives,
and on my soul it feeds.
But when the lunar reaps ,empowerment it gives
Now on their soul i feed.

For light has an end, it will unlit
But the darkness is the almighty immortal.
When they rise, even Apollo is made to sit
For at night the world becomes their slave.

So we humans will always live with fear,
As fear is what they seek.
