Why or why not, I ask,
Embrace the stars, their song bereft?
Like bourbon burned upon my tongue,
I feel detached, my soul bereft.
My tears, a paradox of glee,
Cascade at every whispered word.
And so I tell myself, this writer’s plea:
“I tell myself each waking morn,
The feelings that my heart did mourn,
The night before’s forgotten tale.
I tell myself this grand illusion,
To soothe the aching, haunting bruise.
I live to die, a swift collusion,
The trinity of me, myself, and muse.”

Stone Sea
Water turned into stone, trenches engrave bones known
God forsaken or forsaken Him, back to water, thirst’s groanSadness toast, hat tipped to despair, anger seethes in silence’s lair
Searching for light, sun’s fragments touched, disappearing at night’s glareFate’s jaws trapped, something to contemplate, pain religion, belief overdue
Anguish commemorates love’s giving heart, beats in isolation, soul blue.

The Elixir of Life
A wondrous liquid, so they say,
That can grant eternal youth,
It is said to be found in a faraway land,
And guarded by a fearsome beast.But some say it is a myth,
A tale told to fool the young,
That there is no such thing as an elixir,
And that death is our only fate.But I believe,
That somewhere out there,
The elixir of life does exist,
And I will find it,
No matter what it takes.

Inspiration Is Everywhere
Inspiration is lingering,
As if a gentle breeze on the sea,
It brings the promise of hope,
The kind that helps us to believe.It is a spark within us,
That guides us when we are stuck,
It keeps us striving forward,
Even when luck is out of luck.Inspiration is everywhere,
In the little things and in the grand,
It will take us places,
Where only dreams can stand.© VishalDutia

Get Up
When you are sad
Get up and look at the sun
When you are crying
Dry your tears
Get up and look at the stars
When you are hurting
Get up and look at mother nature
When you can’t go on
Get up and remember those that went before you
When you want to give up
Get up
Remember you have your own destiny
You are not done
You are special
You have work to do
You are loved
You are not aloneBelieve
