Poem: The Rose Flower

Poem: The Rose Flower

Only one rose flower has ever bloomed, in my rose plant, ever since i planted it as a rootless stem, leafless and flowerless too, but full of thorns. I remember, how i found it hard that day, to hold on to your stem because of your thorns. Yet,i gleamed when you first bore a leaf … Continue reading Poem: The Rose Flower

Poem: What If?

Poem: What If?

What if we are mermaids Trapped in human legs? Or unicorns, mystic and majestic Shying away from magic? What if we are birds With long forgotten wings? Caught in the choices of evolution Or choicelessness of daily lives.

Poem: Aborted

Poem: Aborted

Another child? Eyebrows raised. Our Eyelids sank Ashamed! Depths of her womb cringed, Two sad gasps echoed. Umbilical chord, a tight rope Amniotic liquid, dessert of poison. Hands Unloved, Unkissed.

Poem: Life after

Poem: Life after

Oh baby.. Dont kneel. Daada hold me!! I'm sinking Is it karma Or death confused? Be quiet. Stay still. Daada I'm drifting Blurred sights Muted breaths, Heartbeats.. Past lives encircled Thoughts, memories muddled. Soul detached, Floating... Deep slumber Inner voice chanting Om...... Arose.. Incarnated!

Poem: Readers

Poem: Readers

World skims through my life, barely reading a word Benumbed in boredom blues. God watches me keen Through his rainbow shades, Repainting each tear smudged word With petals of love...

Poem: Silver fishes

Poem: Silver fishes

Misty breaths on a window pane Fingers crawl aimlessly Twists a figure in the wetness Revealing a man's silhouette Ah... the eternal addiction of love and loss When silver fishes meet old wounds!

Poem: What Do I Write?

Poem: What Do I Write?

What do I write? What can a penniless, clueless day dreamer Possibly pen down? A writer living inside her catacombs, Never leaving her cocoons. A dreamer, a loser, a victim All muddled up in one head. The vagabonds will have better stories to tell Of seas so vast Wind so wild Cliffs so enthralling. What … Continue reading Poem: What Do I Write?

Poem: Her Brilliant Colours?

Poem: Her Brilliant Colours?

Her brilliant colours? Faded and dull. Her unending charm? Long gone.
