Veiled
Stillness;
Forgotten
Aura; choked sentences,
Casual demeanor,
Identity suspended
And a trapped heart gasping for
Breath. Somewhere wrapped in riddles and
Chained in memories, it's strange how deep
Are the tendrils of love strangulating your heart.

Prone to be misunderstood, a victim of
Dreams and expectations beyond words
A lovelorn heart unexpectedly
Always gets entangled in
Battle between infamous
Pride, passion, lust, ego,
And Misread thoughts
Afraid to
Fall in
Love.

-

Ponytails to perming.
Henna to streaking
Periods to childbirth.
Approaching thunderstorms
To fallen trees
A flood of emotions
Childhood memories
And emotional saturation
Threatening to overflow
The banks of memories.
I had trained myself
To hold my breath
Coordinating it with with yours
Listening to your heart beat
As I cuddled up besides you
Nestled in the curve of your arm.
Chasing happiness
In a life full of imperfections
Dogged by challenges
Pursuing careers and my passion
I found solace in your company.
Comfort. Consolation. Cheer.
Three words.
One identity.

In the depths of our minds
We all hide
Shadows of mysteries
That we have left behind.

-

The joys,
The love,
The warmth,
The sacrifices
The heartaches.
An all inclusive package
Of the satisfaction
Fulfillment and
Wonderment
Of being
A Mom. 

-

I'm not FAT
I'm too damn SEXY
For flats to handle!

-

Comfort. Consolation. Cheer.
Three words.
One identity.
Maa

-

For everything
That is temporary in my life
Maa, you are
My permanent solace.
Happy Birthday, Maa.

Daily routine; Nine to Five.
I call this a bitter pill of life,
Meant to be taken in a stride.
Dancing to the beat of  same drum
We save the best for another day
Not sure of what future will offer
Our scars defining who we are...
A lone star in the sky, burning bright.

Life Is Meant To Be Lived.
Celebrate Each Day As It Comes.
You Don't Know
When It Will Be Your Last.

You call me FAT
I call myself...
ENDOWED!
