We all have our little secrets,
the moments, the stories, the hard falls,
that we don’t wanna discuss, but it stays with us
through every chapter of our lives journey!

Some demons of old times comes lurking
through our hearts and our doorstep,
like shadows, an unerasable footprint,
but we fight, sometimes ignore and walk past it
in absolute peace and silence without chaos
because you’re no longer the same old person,
rather someone who acknowledges everything,
accepts the reality and believes in moving forward!

This is life all about, isn’t it?
The changing times
and a better version of yourself!
May be life isn’t that hard,
So just keep hustling,
let go of your bad times and live slow!

-

you just completely fill
every path you walk,
every person you meet,
everything you see and touch,
with flowers, smile and life,
turning everything around you
in the world, into something
more beautiful, kind and warm,
radiating only infinite happiness!

He stayed with me
among the tulips,
we talked, laughed,
and danced to tunes
sung by our own minds,
we lived every moment and
stared at the sunset for long,
unwilling to walk back home alone!

-

a painful night’s darkness
and the silence of the dead;
only a woman with a sense of
determination and strength within,
can find her wonder and true power
in the face of the moonlight and
the sound waves of the restless ocean,
to pass through a hardened path of storm
and rain, to only rise again and shine!

-

holding all her raindrops
in the darkest of clouds,
and her goosebumps
feeling like a shape poem
with a gentle apricity
in her pheromones,
turning a hush night
into an artistic dawn
in a flash so intense!

Not A Usual Wednesday Morning!

There was no rush to get to office
Still woke up a little early
With a cup of hot coffee in hand,
I sat at the balcony near the plants!

Looked at the sky and didn’t find the Sun
But spotted the birds heading somewhere
Mist all over the city spread like thin cotton balls
Rays of the day strikes on the walls & trees!

I continued to sip on my coffee
Had a short conversation,
With the pond fishes & potted plants
Admired a cute miniature, kept under a bonsai tree!

Some pigeons visited my place in search of water,
But they left seeing me watching them
And I moved into my hallway to plan this day,
As the rest of my usual routine was still waiting to get sorted!

-

Like a soul flower
I come looking for you
every season, as it unfolds
only to go back in denial
from the very known fact that,
‘You are not here anymore’!

-

why I wasn’t available,
when you needed me the most!
But I guess you will understand
that I had some unfinished questions
within me that kept me occupied
in a way that, I was put to sleep at day
and made to feel lonely at night
staring at the window all the time
awaiting your arrival for good!

May be, this is the way
I wanted to apologise to you!

-

People come & go
Just like the flowers do;

Welcome the buds,
Spread its petals,
Sway in the air for a while
Fades colour as it ages,
And wither in pieces,
Irrespective of the seasons,
Sometimes even without
Little water and sunshine!

But the memories
They leave with us,
Stays like the preserved flowers,
Kept secret in between the pages of books,
Only dried outside yet never wilting
But very precious and everlasting!

-

We change; we fall;
but not by choice, by moods!
