The third section of “Tome of Stars“ is “Sporogenesis“ , a haphazard chronicle of the years 2011–2020.  It marks a shift from the cataclysm of “Senescence“  into a period of withdrawal and emotional hibernation, its eleven sonnets seeking to reflect the padam of the collection’s bharatanatyam-inspired structure. 

In “Padam”, the poet opens “Sporogenesis” with a sonnet that merges the aesthetic language of classical Indian dance with the emotional register of personal loss. The speaker observes a divine dancer named Shringara, whose name invokes one of the highest rasas in Indian aesthetic theory: the sentiment of love, particularly as expressed through longing, separation, and divine union. As such, the dancer becomes a symbolic embodiment of shringara rasa, a living articulation of sacred love transformed by grief. Her movements, once ecstatic and radiant, have slowed into mournful lament. The poem takes a dual perspective, considering cosmic and emotional landscapes, on a love that once carried mythic force but has since disintegrated into sorrow and fragmentation.

Lyrics

Shringara’s dance, once swift, now softly wanes,
Her pinions furled, she weaves a lovelorn song:
Two spirits twined by fate’s resistless chains,
Spark arcane flames—a bond both fierce and strong.

Lithe limbs with love caress the endless skies,  
Yet sorrow stings her eyes with winter rain. 
Reborn fate’s dungeons, lovers’ last goodbyes,
Rend hearts enveloped in unending pain.

She writhes in torment, star split in the dark,
Her silent scream stretched stark through timeless space.
Grand galaxies are maimed with glowing marks. 
Marred adoration weeps upon her face.

At last, I grasped the pattern in her stars,
And Shiva laughed: her story now was ours.

HEARTBREAK

Second single from upcoming EP, "Nostalgia".

I reached out to @lanvark-music after discovering him on a music forum. He had a voice and tone that I thought was an absolute perfect fit for the soundscape of this track. All the way from Spain, he agreed to help me and we got to work on it right away. I'm very grateful he loaned his voice to the project and can't wait to keep working on projects in the future.

"Questions", is a song about asking why things have to turn out the way they do in regards to this person you're trying to detach yourself from, how you ended up falling in love only for it to be wasted because there's no way you and this person could realistically work out,

The "Nostalgia" EP is an Indie Synthpop project with hints of Dreamwave and Vaporwave sprinkled throughout. It has been in the making since my first album. This is the first project with a more focused sound and theme. "Nostalgia" is largely about reminiscing about things of the past. As it progresses, the tracks drift away from that nostalgic feeling and instead focus on looking forward to the future.


Lyrics:

So, as they said,
Here I am,
But my questions are there.

What did I expect?
Again,
I've paid for my mistakes.

It's hopeless to think of it in a different way.
And I wish I never told you how I felt.

Because of you I've lost my mind.
I thought I could help you.
You taught me otherwise.
Now I obsessed, and it's tearing me apart.

Why have things turned out to be so bad?

You know, I know that we deserve better.
Yeah, we both know that you and I don't belong together.

So, as they said,
Here I am,
But my questions are there.

What did I expect?
Again,
I've paid for my mistakes.
