Wildfire

Image
Wildfire Sparks of fire, infernos arise, like coloured glass and fiction in my eyes Hidden in the flames, echoes exclaim, my tender heart feels no shame Fear trembling, sadness wailing, fumes vanquish emotions prevailing Confidence accrued, feelings of vexation, wildfire burns like devouring passion The numbness is severe,  although my mind is so clear,  prickling across with intense pain Ember's bright and my soft soul: Forgotten holocausts have been caught within. - Mridini Sivakumar Image Credits: https://www.istockphoto.com/illustrations/burning-city istock photos ©

Inner Voice

Image
Poem - Inner Voice Oh lord, what’s my inner voice? the captain of my ship, and my guiding light Burning when my hard heart cries, Which hurts my mind, nothing’s fine A sense of universal harmonies, a measureless forever eternity A feeling of ecstasy and delight, eradicating austere thoughts and fright Jealousy, jealousy ponders within me, Oh, really? Forgive my lack of sympathy Sparks of raging and flaming fire run through my envious desire A dark, vast purple night sky, A crescent moon beguiling and shy My inner tones permeate my feelings Nostalgia creeps like tiny inklings Oh lord, Oh lord, what’s my inner voice? wistful, delightful or a frightening sight So many questions asked, waiting for a reply just listening to the voice that speaks inside What’s my inner voice? - Mridini Sivakumar Image Credits: BigThink  ©
