the emotions I left
unrequited for ages
would haunt me relentlessly
through my years after
and a lifetime of repentance
won't be enough
to nullify the resentment.

days in the sun,
you don't know the half of it!

we were at a disagreement,
the adrenaline concocted emotions blinded me from making amends. "There is always a next time

that never crossed my mind.
The present is an infinite loop
of possibilities
that my neurons autoplay.

for a time machine, before
someone comes up to me and asks, "Karna kya chahte ho?"

at the top notch IT firm that day
but the ocean of wheels
at chouringhee chourasta
had their own plans for him,"
the sales executive being judged
for his deadlines thought to himself.

It takes two years
of high school cramming and
a precarious eight semesters
of engineering, to build up
enough courage to propose
to your parents a second time
your intentions of
pursuing writing as a career
since the last fallout
six years ago.
