She asked for my new address,
around my birthday
Today
you have to scroll a lot,
on my FB page
To find a super belated wish
Yet, twice a day,
I merrily pick a small key
Acknowledge the faint flutter within
and check the empty letterbox
Coz I am pragmatic,
not a hopeless romantic
I check the empty letterbox,
coz I have already bought
a lovely red Thank You card

Those stars above,
are lovers who lost
Some had and lost,
some never had
Timeless is their glory,
blinding their glow
With burning fire of God,
****** untouched
and unearthly kept so
Shining on,
I will speak,
words and acts etheral
Coz your no,
didn't just **** me
it made me join them,
till sweet end of eternity,
and made my soul immortal

Tick tock
Midst your exhaling pleasure
Wanting more ticks,
and a few more tocks
Nothing on
but the watch
White,
midst the swallowing dark
Just as it was chosen
Thanks you said,
that birthday
I will always wear it,
promised your hopping innocence
Always
I wait,
as the ticks echo
Nearing crescendo,
for destiny meant so
A shivering delight,
I too win
In not letting go

Lost a pen
Stopped scribbling
Stopped scratching off,
as if some words were lovelier than rest
Stopped seeing,
started listening
Poems are not words,
they are unsung songs
Not paper,
someplace else they belong
Lost a pen,
but found my unsung songs

Reality shivers,
and uncontrollably so
I hold her hand
Her -
miles apart
and ages beyond
And the whirl slows down,
calms down
Like a kid,
who is promised a grand story
Thats her seductive charm,
that her unwavering glory
And thats my life
All known,
all writ,
yet a delicately unfloding story

You are my Homer
I rise as I sink
and sink back as I rise,
when through you I flow
Such poignant beauty
Now, today,
more than ever so

Back then,
I used to
silently weep words
Letting them go,
picking them back up
As they got,
heavier, shinier and calmer
Perfect was I,
Perfect was she
Just that,
it wasn't how it looked
Just that,
as the library in me waited,
I realized,
she wasn't that much into books

One dull summer evening,
I look up
and I see it
A big bob of cob-web,
lumped into that shape
Hanging from a fine thread,
like an upside down snake
It sways around,
responding to my fan
Stereotypical Indian music plays in my head,
and I stop looking up at all
Right below, coffee I sip
And it descends on me,
the thought -
What are the odds,
that into my coffee,
the snake will take a dip?
Low, for sure,
but maybe I can help
I turn on the fan speed,
and start drinking there more often
One day I come back,
from a hot sultry day errand,
the ones you just can't avoid
I sit down with my cold water
and realize,
long before I look up,
that the snake has gone
No more head bobbing around,
no more of Satan's spies looking down
I look around, and down on the floor
lies he
Just a film of dust now,
acknowledging the fan,
fluttering mildly
I guess for my coffee now
I will have to find,
a new hope
of an equally rich finish
Till then, just hazelnut, chocolate
or maybe something a little Irish

Around you and me,
around right and wrong
Time moves along
Sink in that,
let go for that
Patiently, for your love, long
as time moves along
Around happiness,
around our petty interests
we all throng
Coz, we run out of sand
as time moves along
I move down
along this curse
But all along
for her I long,
to no mortal end
As time moves along

What do you seek?
Ask yourself
You are the last on Earth
What do you seek now?
Ask yourself
Seek that difference
Sink it within you
For, one day,
against you,
you will have to
