मर चुका है,हर आदमी अंदर से मर चुका हैं।किसीकी मां, किसीका बाप,किसका भाई मर चुका हैं।सांसद में टेबल पीटते दलालों का,जमीर मर चुका हैं।अपने जमीन का हक मांगता,वो किसान मर चुका हैं।ऑक्सीजन के इंतजार में वो मरीज,सड़क पे मर चुका हैं।गोलियां चलाने वालो को सत्ता दी है,देखो यह देश ही मर चुका हैं।

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…
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…
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.

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…
Untitled
I saw the sun setting,Burning the sky,Manifesting my desires. Reflecting on my emotions,When I stood there,Holding tight to your hands. Let it bleed,Let the world see it flow,Let it slide down my cheeks, often. You burn,And come back like a phoenix,And we’ll fleet together like we always wished for.
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…
All he had, was some queries
On a fatal summer night, every floor of the house, bolting them inside, was under the comfort of their ceiling fans and water coolers. Television was at its highest decibel, competing and trying to suppress the neighbour’s cacophony. Between all these, Aarav was trying to complete his homework. Playful, kind-hearted, cultured, sweet, cute, pure at…
