In the tapestry of the fast-paced world we live in, we often find ourselves entangled in the threads of two contrasting feelings: self-love and loneliness. Sitting alone in a cosy restaurant, savouring my meal, a thought lingered in my mind: is this solitude an act of self-love or a reminder of my loneliness? In that…

To the World, With Love
I had this weird feeling on Monday mode,This might be my last day in this world’s abode. I had no regrets for the time I spent,My love for all was true, and I didn’t pretend. Only if I could have settled and secured my family,My soul could have parted and made a journey happily. Yet…
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…

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…

Custodians of the So-called-Society
A man, sitting in an air-conditioned conference room, conceptualizing and presenting a new idea: “Love your Parents.” What a brilliant thought. Parallelly, he has been getting calls from a known number, which he has been avoiding for a while now. He excuses himself from the room to come out and yells, “Don’t you get the…
Incomplete
You covered my sky like life with your clouds. They were bright, bubbly and smiling. You made me look good. Everyone looked up to me because of you. You made me look beautiful. Sadly, they have become dark. So, dense that even your sunshine can’t penetrate. They are so heavy with pain and emotions that…
For You…
I look for you,In this dark and silent night,I look for you. You always said,close your eyes and feel me there,I’m always there, just next to you. Here, I’m cold. I’m afraid,But you are not here and,I look for you. I’m crying,because my heart is heavy,And I need you. Not to support or console me,But…
