You stare at his thumping heart,
It’s rhythm and nervous smile 
Sweeps your insecurities aside,
His exceptionally wide arms
Makes you want to be wrapped 
But you wait for the 
Beautiful beginnings to unravel.

How far could you travel? 
How far is he willing to? 
All that you once expected
Is all that you now want to be;
There’s an urge to fill up the garden 
With all pastel coloured ...

I used to believe that 
The wind would carry me 
And that I’d go with it’s flow,
But nothing really lifted me up
Until I rigorously learned 
To harness the wind.

I began confessing;
Letting the free flow of words
That were stuffed in 
The bottom of my heart.

I took the flights and hit the roads
Until my second thoughts
Were truly surmounted.

If I’d waited for the right time,

The men of wrath 
Banter and rant 
Next to the famed bar,
While the man inside 
Recites his years long poetry.

Amidst the sectored chaos,
The beauty of his work 
Seeps through the ruckus 
To an open window
Seeking ailment and cure.

One by one, the broken pieces 
Of a ceramic glass 
Come back to life,
As the hours of the night
Dim the harsh voices of the strife.

A nearly wasted...

When the silent night glimmers,
And the farthest star shimmers
Before the procurement of pitch dark,
Eyes search for the embodiment of warmth 
And the heart pounds at the 
Growing boundaries of silence.

In such moments of dense gloominess,
Tense feeling reach culmination 
For the first time in years,
And as the clouds of distress 
Come together up above,
Souls begin to cling;
Her hea...

Journey to the heaven’s gate begins
And I try to lift my hand 
To wave a final goodbye 
But it feel twice the size;
Failing to rise, claiming 
Not to be mine.

There’s almost little to 
No strength at the 
Bottom of my spine,
But I still stand anyway 
To watch him make his way,
While I, being his only connection,
Stand at the edge of the land 
Trying hard to say many things 
But fai...

Their eyes don't meet with mine,

There's a full stop to the routine 

Chatter at quarter past nine,

An elderly heart whines

For the savings lost 

On fruitless mines,

I get to hear furious yells 

More than the temple bells,

It's a heartbreak weather altogether;

One by one, we lose all our feathers.

The food is served unequally

And there's more on my plate;

Th...

A heated argument

Takes a drastic turn 

As things fade into black,

And as the white comes back,

One regretfully stands out 

The barricaded door,

And with utmost concern

Knocks and knocks and knocks

Expecting some response;

On the other side of the door, 

Water splashes and rinses

Blood, a lot of blood,

And the dreadful flood

Seaps through the door gap.

As the morning goes into 

The arms of the evening,

And the sky turns pink,

Not all bonds stay linked;

One's wing kisses another's,

And the clock fails to cling,

And the time drops, a little too fast,

As two residents of air 

Fall from grace 

To forever rest 

On the earth's surface.

I take the long way home 

After spending the evening with you.

I watch the city lights' contrast,

And the shadows that the 

Edifices effortlessly cast.

The wind carrying your love 

Follows me until I reach home,

And no matter what the cost,

I'd limitlessly spend every 

Pound and dollar and ruppee 

To witness this luminous feeling. 

I reckon there's no bet...

Harsh spotlight penetrates 

Through the high tides

To track the underwater stars

And to store them in the jars. 

Gadgets drown and scatter

To gauge the deep underwater;

Keen cam-eyes spot some light

And share the resplendent sight. 

In the unravelling of fate, a pearl

That denies to reciprocate with 

The light is left alone in the water,

Only for it to li...

I walk out into the lush green

To a tranquilizing Kargeen,

When a far gunshot shakes my soul

And the delicate trees lose their moles. 

In the presence of whose reign 

Is the humanity drowning in vain?

Some depend on War and Peace 

To realise the pragmatic fact that 

Conflicts can be dealt with ease,

While some still continued to tease,

Others relentlessly aimed t...
