Aadil Ghulam Bhat

  (Aadil Ghulam Bhat) (A Dramatic Monologue) I stand alone, a monument of flesh,   Chiseled by greed, by power's coarse command,   My hands, once pure, now bathed in scarlet hue,   The blood of men who wore the same soft skin.   Do you see me now, within this mirrored gaze?   A tyrant crowned by sorrow's hollow wreath,   A king of dust, with shadows for my throne,   My breath a gale that snuffs the weaker flame.   Where once was light, I cast an endless night,   And in my eyes, the stars themselves grow dim.   I break the bonds that held us close as kin,   And forge new chains of iron, cold and sharp.   I hear their cries, yet turn a deafened ear,   For in their pain, I find my twisted peace.   I trample love beneath my heavy heel,   And let it bleed into the barren earth.   I walk this path, alone yet not alone,  ...

Aadil Ghulam Bhat ( Poet and Author ) She was oasis to my desert, A sun of hope to my heart. The whispers of affection, A red whinny ink unto my pen. A freedom of a prisoner, My nightingale, a beautiful listener. A bunch of words to my poetry, A poem decorated with imagery. She was moonlight in my darkness, A balm of solace to my distress. The echoes of sweet devotion, A golden sonnet in constant motion. A liberty to my captive soul, Making broken hearts whole. She is verses in my rhyme, An art painted with over time. She was the calm before the storm, A rainbow after the rain has worn. The anchor in my stormy sea, A melody in the chaos, wild and free. The heavenly muse that fueled my art, A beating rhythm in my lonely heart. She was a sunrise after the night, A haven where everything felt right. But, now a water to flaming fire, A faulty, busted, twisted wire. A colorless resistor to my current, A cloudy fade unto my Crescent. The cut of furious and sharp knife. Fearful archangel'...

  Aadil Ghulam Bhat  (Poet and Author) The man had stolen himself. And, finally, theft of the soul. When among people, he wouldn't lie, And foliage not yet laid, there drove A selfish one to the yard, And who gazed at the world. However, in a rough manner, given that He waited patiently until he revealed his true self. A black mask to conceal his identity, He wondered whether self-importance Might resurface, to preserve its comfort, By searching for something it had forgotten, Yet we could not live without false notions. He thought, 'If I were to sell my blooming trees, My garden —the young buds and flowers, Where houses are all hearts filled with love,. I hadn't thought of them as loving birds. I doubt if I was deceived for a while. To uproot them, to ascend to heaven, And leave the slope behind, hearts all bare, Where the eye from heaven is no warmer Than the moon. I'd hate to part with them. I know if I was. Yet more, I'd hate to own My trees, except as others h...

Aadil Ghulam Bhat Poet and Author (Born on 02/04/1999) Once free, I roamed the sky, With wings that carried me high. A world of wonder and a life of bliss, No cage, no chains, no tethered kiss. But then one day, I met a man Who offered food with a gentle hand. I trusted him, for in my heart I had no fear, there was no smear. But as I sat upon his gentle palm, He locked me up in his golden cage. The cage was small, its walls were cold, My wings were clipped, and my spirit sold. I sang a song of freedom then, Of skies that held me high again. I cried and wept for what I'd lost, My innocence, my bliss, my cost. And yet I sang with patience too, For in my heart, I knew it's true, That freedom comes to those who wait, Who persevere, who don't berate. So with my voice sweet and clear, I sang the song for all to hear, Of tyranny and betrayal too, And of lost beauty, of hurting pain. I, the innocent bird, with my pitying voice, Sang the song of tyranny with no rejoice. But still, I...

  Aadil Ghulam Bhat [Poet & Novel writer]  Born on 02- 04- 1999 The grass is now no more green. And no tree can hold their leaves. The sun is now hiding in misty cold. Scenic beauty is no more on ridge. The days are now no more long. And no garden has a flowery tale. Fall has subsided the green gold . Flock singing is no more on ridge. A dry, hot, loo is now no more strong. And no Vale is singing the edenic song. The heaven has now nothing to hold Bird shrieking is no more on ridge . The morning breeze is no more fare. And no evening holds a crimson way Fall has turn'd every green to gold. Cloud dance is no more on ridge.

Aadil Ghulam Bhat [Poet & Novel writer] Born on 02- 04- 1999. Last Friday, through the window, Beside me was father's aging face. Pale, lined mouth, less toothed, Silver hair, once dark, uncloaked. Thoughts put away, rearview's glint, Journeyed together, ageless shimmer. Face, pale as sea sand, temporal hug, Wrinkles etched by life's gentle trace. Late winter's fourteenth moon Shone bright, was his reflecting beauty. Now feels as old as fading starlight, Crow's feet and a graceful bend, A gentle mark, seized reveries. Despite the changing tides of age, Clocks may tick and years may fly, Love still stands, love stands resolute.
