Avinash Nair Poems

Unseen, unheeded strands of existence,
Unheard is their Sound of Silence,
Dark faces smeared with dirt,
With traces of fear and hurt.
...

When time passes as time does,
Without you noticing it passing by,
A helpless senselessness creeps in you
That becomes impossible to hide.
...

I hold her close to me,
So close, so near,
That we cease to be
Two different entities.
...

For love is, that fleeting feeling
Of warmth in the coldest of nights.
It is the gradual healing
Of the pain in your twilights.
...

Thin, unnoticed she moves,
Amidst the crowd
Which promptly disapproves
Her or at least the shroud
...

Again, he embarks on this journey,
A journey without destination
With a slight change;
This time, it is alone
...

Suddenly he has grown old,
His once proud gaze
And forehead bold
Seem tired and cold,
...

With our fingers entwined in deep embrace
We stare out, away to some different space
The passion unspent is heightened here,
But then there is this guilt with a tinge of fear
...

What is it that you think, with your

Eyes fixated somewhere in between
...

Those smiles of sadness
And tears of happiness,
Whispers of care
And shouts of despair,
...
