You are a Poet

You are a poet
As you wrote, so what three lines
Food is hunger
Clothes are stroke of mud
Oh, shelter is sky
I in Crowd

What matters is disgust
Grinding two beans
I have unknown voices
roaming around me
Hard to Breathe

It’s hard to breathe sometimes
But I am writing to catch my breath,
In lamentable couple of minutes and hours
My eyes turn so heavy to blink,
Seeds of happy dandelion
Touched me many times,
Indifference

It’s you, It’s me
Or say we are we
You criticize
I hold it in myself
I doubt its beauty…
Anxious Silence

No freedom, no rights…
Listening to something
Something horrible
Yes, it is that only
Juggle is not
Key to success
It’s just a process
Waiting

In a waiting room
Fingers grasping a shroud,
Ay, shroud of moments
When I was happy as a Clam,
Ah, so what? Now you have
Skin all burnt…
Happy Lohri 2023

This Lohri
Let’s give us
Contrasting colours of fire
With every new breath…
Ugly

Her ugliness made her fall in love with herself.
Addiction

Lights off, spilled pills and a blur vision took a soul away.
Paused She

She smiled, laughed, wept and then paused. For the last time she saw towards the past.
Broken Heart

Before he could do anything, she broke her heart herself.
He

In an ocean of memories, he submerged all alone.
Me

What I see in myself is what I never see in me.
Mirror

Mirror was evidence of his tears, screaming and death.
Decades

It’s been decades since I lived with her but I only know her spelling.
