Of Amrita and Sahir
We are so much like Amrita and Sahir.
Spending hours with each other
without saying a word.
I finish the 15th cup of tea and you
smash the 15th half lit cigarette.
The room smells of ginger and smoke.
And the leftover tea leaves soak the
redness from the cigarette.

// Bangalore //
Bangalore is the playboy
everybody adores,
It's loud, unapologetic
and aloof.
(Full piece in the caption)-
I have a fire inside of me
Which burns only for you
And the flames won't die out
Until they have completely engulfed you-
Unrequited
Years of patience
Orgy of optimism
Outlived the mires
Yet struggling
To vent the feelings...
The surge
Of undying passion
Intoxicates my
Blood...and mind
You are the sun
I'm the moth
Fluttering in an ocean
Of flowers of mauve
Since all I had
Was unrequited love.-
Don't worry, love.
I won't let you perpetrate
the sin of neglecting me
and lamenting, later.
I will, slowly, deliberately,
scarce my presence and
walk out of your life,
making it look all intentional.
I won't even let you discern
that your ignorance
made me curious to
become a recluse. Ever.
I love you so much.-
Happy Father's Day (21-June)
Parents' love is unparalleled and unrequited.
If mother showers it, father supports it.
