Wayward Waves, Reluctant Ripples (Poems and Song Lyrics)

Wayward Waves - Reluctant Ripples is a two-part poetic odyssey that charts the shifting tides of emotion, identity, and existence. In Wayward Waves, you’ll sail through turbulent thoughts, existential reflections, and bold metaphysical musings. From the hacker’s guffaw in Operation Unfriend to the vengeful blaze of Revenge of Sindoor, these works confront war’s debts, love’s betrayals, and society’s cruelties. Reluctant Ripples brings a shift in tone—gentler, lyrical, and often set to music—where the poet contemplates friendship, childhood, freedom, and love in its many forms. From the soaring spirit of “Stringless Kite” to the haunting vulnerability of “The Fire in Your Breath,” these verses give voice to both resilience and reverie. Whether whispered in solitude or sung aloud, they invite you to pause, reflect, and listen—to the chaos, the calm, and everything in between. This is a collection for seekers—for those who have wandered, wondered, and dared to feel deeply. A book to read, to hum, and to return to like the tides.
