[312] Seeing It All

May 23, 2020May 23, 2020by Rahul Gaur1 Comment

dismantling universes indifferently The starry sky abyss consumes souls we're spectators of our own demise playing Gods by our permission A lone wolf strays by the pond drinking skies out of thirst The darkness befalls on us all like a reunion of angry clouds I'm curled up in confusions The rain falling in dozes I [...]

[302] Open Up Your Mind

April 5, 2020April 5, 2020by Rahul Gaur10 Comments

A carnage that smells of life An irony that makes you feel alive I see civilisations collapsing right in front of me The wars that reversed progress I see birds that die of asphyxiation A million years wiped right in front of me I try to live in the second that demands attention A plane [...]

[270] Dreaming Reality Checks

November 14, 2019by Rahul Gaur4 Comments

The passing of my sleep signal a doom of my dreams where I watch all that I think I needed linking it with the edge of reality Of lost paths, I could have taken to happiness Of the ways, that I could not fear less It arrives to me like a bohemian sensation Light in [...]

[246] Confused Clarity

June 17, 2019by Rahul Gaur7 Comments

My distraction is aware of all that it lacks. It can be missing out on the various sounds of rain or it can be not holding the knowledge to appreciate architecture it falls on. I accept that there is a lot that I don't accept. I understand that there is a lot that I don't [...]

[154] Voiceless Rain

May 26, 2018May 26, 2018by Rahul Gaur7 Comments

Decorate your room for my memories to echo less Your lingering perfume wanes in intensity as I get undressed Tormenting clouds call me out to watch them perform a show for us tonight A show we're both an audience of separated by space and time The show gets over and I remember that my umbrella [...]

[151] Keep Me Where The Light Is

May 19, 2018May 19, 2018by Rahul Gaur2 Comments

I still remember your gestures in my dream The way your self-consciousness makes you more elegant than hideous, like you think The way your eyes held the calm of the mountains and somehow I knew the reason was me That was when fear gripped me for pain knows me way too well as it circles [...]

[148] Solo Travelling

May 14, 2018May 14, 2018by Rahul Gaur14 Comments

A snow-capped summit that evades you. You are filled with fear of the distance, of the journey that is unknown. Sounds that you've never heard conjure and hijack your senses packing your ambitions behind fear. One day you wake up remembering why you dreamt at all. The morning motivation coupled with no external stimuli of [...]

[128] The Constant Struggle

February 25, 2018by Rahul Gaur14 Comments

a mere appearance of wisdom a mind full of questions a laugh full of deceit what will I really be? Imperfect memories make me Unformed thoughts are my pillars When change is the only constant what will I really be? What I am is not what I was What I will really be is not [...]

[120] The Glory of Silence

January 15, 2018January 15, 2018by Rahul Gaur28 Comments

There's both glory and doom in knowing yourself. The glory is that self-awareness helps you to not make mistakes. The doom is that you still make mistakes and you are self-aware about it. You suffer. You feel like your suffering knows no bound. No one's suffering can compare with yours. But then you listen to [...]
