Blushing cheeks and sweaty hands, Heartbeats dance a butterfly dance, Almost like love. … Engraved initials in inky hearts, Stolen glances and hidden love notes, Almost like love. … Spring breeze and sashaying trees, Blossoming lilies in burbling creeks, Almost like love. … Silver moonlight and twinkling stars, Granted wishes in stardust shower, Almost likeContinue reading “Almost like love”

Doors
Too oft my mind ventures, Out of its dark confines, Beyond the doors of solitude, Eluding its labyrinthine passages. Trying to seek refuge In blissful sunshine, And eternal hope, A place, where I can quiet my chaotic mind, And grab a drink, to sit with my musings, And arrange maybe, a bouquet of flowers, TheContinue reading “Doors”
Finger of light
Through uncharted territories, And wild, unpaved paths, When I was almost lost, You stood like a beacon, And guiding me through, Was your finger of light.
I heard your name
Into the woods I ventured, Between lowly vale, and cascading falls, And in the swishing of the wind, And the rustling of leaves, I heard your name.
Dinner time conversations
“We’re gonna relocate”, my dad said, Just as mom began serving dinner that day, It was the beginning of December, And yet, a trickle of sweat ran down my spine.. I looked at him in disbelief, then at mom, She didn’t have a word to say, but she didn’t return my gaze either.. “Why?? Where??”Continue reading “Dinner time conversations”
It’s not easy, being me
I might make your day easy, With jokes and puns that are cheesy, But I wouldn’t let you know, That my insides are queasy. I could crave pani puri and biryani one day, Or simply stay hungry and sulk away, One time I’d listen to Ed Sheeran and Coldplay, Or you might find me blaringContinue reading “It’s not easy, being me”
My creator
Maa sits on the swing in the balcony, Humming a tune from some old Bollywood movie, And I think to myself, When did I last see her so calm and peaceful. But I have seen her hum before, haven’t I? When she does the things she loves, When she works, When she cooks, Almost allContinue reading “My creator”
One more life
“Listen”, he said, Turning and looking at her serene, sleepy face, To which, she raised a brow, Without opening her eyes, “Don’t go”, he said, “just stay..” She smiled, eyes still shut, Tracing a finger on d edges of his face, Making a mental note of his features, “You know”, she chimed, “I don’t wantContinue reading “One more life”
I want you to stay
Because I wear my heart on my sleeve, And I’ve had it broken many a times, By relying too much, or sometimes too little, Or letting my hopes fly too high, Like a raging wildfire.. Before you came by And you showed me.. That it was ok.. to expect people to love you The wayContinue reading “I want you to stay”
Shades of silence
I wonder what the colour of unspoken words would be? The thoughts tinted by the emotion, Would it be amaranthine, like the blushing cheeks every time you saw your crush? Or aquamarine, blending with the calmness of an otherwise turbulent sea, An esoteric eburnean, like a blank canvas, waiting to be painted with lush greenContinue reading “Shades of silence”
