harshith

The last grain of sand

A mother's vengenance striking upon the scum,

and everything that is their creation.

The once proud edifices that meant the pinnacle of power

now turned into rubble and dust.

Clouds of darkness engulfing me

Not a sliver of light or a glimmer of hope

Blinded by the devil's trident

all I hear is the agony of perishing souls.

Earth erupting from beneath me,

sucking me into an endless fiery abyss.

The last grain of sand left

in my hourglass of life

Ending closer to the almighty

than when I arrived.

harshith in Poetry & Free Verse

Space Beyond

Blinding darkness, numbing silence

light years of it to every side;

ways to describe its humbling dominance.

Laws set in stone for us to abide.

Hiding behind god's shadow of delusion

to avoid answers more concrete.

A lot left for another day of expedition

with only a drop in this vast ocean mapped.

One day, some day maybe a chance

to plant the flag in the space beyond.
