Dil

DilĀ  apne liye hamesha hi pechide raste khojta hain, Kabhi ek raah to kabhi dusri pakadta hain. Galat raaste ko sahi maankar kabhi kabhi woh itna door chala jate hain, Ki wapas aana namumkin sa lagta hain. Aur kabhi kabhi us galti ko woh itna such maan lete hain, Ki galti ka ehsaas bhi nahi…

Confluence

Everything was dark around,the planks beneath and so were the feet; cold. The pound under the chest was vigorous,and the mind was dealing with its own hurricane.All he could hear was his deep exhale,a few murmurs behind those thick curtains,which seemed to increase with every subsequent breath. He tiptoed to the centreas if he was…

Silhouette

Hey Sunshine,When I stand facing you,What follows, is a shadow. Something that mimics me,Something that mocks,Something that echoes my inner darkened blocks. A dark shadow,A dark reflection of my very own,Yet seamless,Clung to me. What it doesn’t reflect is my shattered soul,My wrecked heart,And the fractured mind. If you look carefully to realize,It’s only you…

Moments

On the lonely roads, I wait for you, So that no one can see us together. No questions No complaints, Just cross paths so I can see you and live that moment forever.

May the history repeat itself

As I entered the airport last night,I was upset and missed you. Not because you weren’t there,But the fear that you may never be there. It did and will always remind me of the unfulfilled promises we made,And the untraveled destinations. They say that if you have to know your partner well, travel with him;I…

Covet

The earth broke apart,All the trails disappeared.The heart broke into endless pieces.How does one convalesce the broken heart?Unfortunate me, the happiness had always remained beyond my reach,But with my pyre, I light the lantern of your happiness.May you be blessed with it wherever you may go,I pray fervently that you thrive and attain your covets.My…

Scared

I am scared. I am scared of myself. Of my mind. Of who can see the mind I have. I am scared. I am scared. I am scared to hear. Scared to think. Scared to be. I am scared of me. I am scared. I am scared of who is in my head. I am…

I can’t, and I don’t want to

It seems like yesterday, when we met on a random summer evening,The arena was full of innocent souls and was operatic,And the dark night illuminated with a glitter of your eyes.For the sake of my lustre,I don’t want to let you go, my sunshine. The place was new but the people were known,Where the song…

It was pouring today

With the sound of it,I felt like calling and telling you,Here goes another rainy day without you.Today, will you come and stand next to me and complete my monsoon?Hey, it’s pouring today. Walking on the terrace, contemplating,Didn’t know what to do.All I wanted was to hold you tight and inundate with you,Hold my hands, walk…

Witful

I was flowing in the wild, like the marram grass. Dry and gusty, and was so jaunty. You sneaked into my life, hiding in the mist. Quenching my eternal thirst, with your dripping tears. I bestowed myself with your dews of love, wilful that I will be clammy forever.
