You can sleep uninterrupted,If you don’t mind the crying.It is one of those terrible Thursday nights. Only this time, I haven’t any strength to get back up,To fight right back. I speak of my pains, The ones that I could never tell to your face,The ones that I considered unimportant,And the ones that you thoughtContinue reading “Edge of the horizon”

I can tell
You kissed me at 2:27 am,As the raindrops clashed like cymbals against the window pane.A laugh in the sea of sadness;You took my heart and thawed the growing anguish. Our lips met in an odd old-fashioned manner, Filling the chasm of air that floats in between our pinched noses.Our heads tilted at angles that fitContinue reading “I can tell”
How your heart starts to smile
There is something very endearing about old times,Just like how your heart starts to smile-At the smell of a diary that has been shelved for years;Those tiny fragments of dust and dirt that sits on its cover,That brown tinge that envelopes the pages,Rides a straight path from your head to heart. Wiping off the dust,Continue reading “How your heart starts to smile”
Cicatrix
On this side of my skin,The dots turn into houses,The sores turn into hills,The scars tune into a song of their own-Song that reminds me of those battles fought, and lost. Just like the girl next door, my scars are usual and customary-But if taken the time to look at, they have legends to narrate,LegendsContinue reading “Cicatrix”
The Winds
The lawn seems greener today. As I step on the grass, my feet recall what it was like to spend hours laying still, Watching the sky turn from blue into a blushed hue. I sit here today and watch the leaves swaying, And mellow rays of sunshine peek from the rear end. Strangely, the windContinue reading “The Winds”
Macrocosm
Ever so often we are mesmerized by the beauty this universe unfolds.We are drifted away into the walls of an infinite rope-That connects us with things that are colossal,Made of half parts helium and half parts fire.The rope, on the edges of which hangs the belittled human race,With divine touch of our gods and goddesses.IContinue reading “Macrocosm”
Are you with me?
In times of a social evil or a massacre, When the news channels are flashing the same- Somewhere in the midst of all that, I feel the need of a physical presence; Presence of another warm blooded soul, Who would place their hands on my shoulder, And touch me with a feeling of assurance ThatContinue reading “Are you with me?”
What does blue taste like?
What does blue taste like?Is it close to the salty water of the seas and the oceans?Or the cradles of the the clouds in the sky?I wish it tasted like how my tears do,As they flow down my eyesTravel through my cheeks and reach my mouth;They are half parts salty and half parts sour,With sprinklesContinue reading “What does blue taste like?”
Why do you fear the stars?
What do you think of the stars?What are they, really?I am told that we’re made of star stuff,The stuff that lie miles away from our eyes.But, have they told you of the wars that they fight? From down here, it’s hard to tell-About the battles and their casting spell.The vast eternal maze, which we usedContinue reading “Why do you fear the stars?”
The other side of a visible spectrum
Violet Did you know that violet serves it best to both men and women?Never too feminine or too masculine.Always somewhere in between the huesOf the ultraviolet and the blues.In evening primroses that bloom in my garden,There is a hint of violet that remind me of the times I used to tear them off and flingContinue reading “The other side of a visible spectrum”
