Aayushi Anand Apr 2014
A nightly muse
Of thoughts diffuse
A thoughtless mind
With thoughts unkind,
A rhyme's plea
Beckoning to be,
A poet's mind
Her words unbind,
Far un sightly
Pained and slightly
Chaotic, inter-weaved
Labyrinthine and unseamed...
Her thoughts' stream,
A labored possession
Of loved recollections,
An urging tempt
To write unkempt
And sing untamed
Before the morrow
Bury thy sorrow,
In paper clean
Ink, ink blots
Joining scattered dots
Of unleashed thoughts
Across paper lays
Her scattered brain
All efforts vain
Seeming to be
Before trauma passes
Brought back sane
Weighing her losses
Weighing her gains
Poetic muse, that
Worded rather well
Like some stranger
She hath read
That signed below
Name familiar so
It dawned upon
This lady, wrong
Whenever did she
Write that song?
Which hers is
Now to call
'Tis dawn's dew
Awakening a new
Knowing of self
Last night's fire
Burned through those
Sheets of tire
Sudden smiles befriend
An unknowing visage
That must be
That must be
That is me
Spoke her mirage...

-Aayushi
Aayushi Anand Apr 2014
At a gun's glance
Said he
Let me **** you first
And then me
The gun laughed
At the lovers' plight
An only winner...
In eye's sight

Alternate ending-
That beast's might
Aayushi Anand Apr 2014
When you'd take leave
I thought I'd grieve
But it has now dawned
Now that you're gone
That it is all but the same
And that change changes change
In leaving you’ve left
Me, space for another
As for his arrival
I’m caught in a wait
The wait
That eternal seeming dictation of fate…
Aayushi Anand Mar 2014
Is there a place?
Where I can find,
My reason to be alive,
Where I could hear me breathe,
Where my heart would bless as it beats,
Where I would be at ease,
And be one with the earth,
And talk in the language of birds,
Where rhyme and rhythm would play,
Magic on the words that I write,
And fill my soul with some love and light and life,
Where pain wouldn't hurt,
Dreams wouldn't die,
Comparison wouldn't exist,
Where the mind could wander free,
Where it would be ‘us’ and not just me,
A place where we would care,
For the ones that cared for us,
Where life wouldn't play,
Mean, biased and unfair,
Alas a place, so far it is,
In realms of my own, I find myself search,
This hunger, this pain, a never ending thirst,
But beauty is as, beauty we behold,
And so I stand,
Unknown in a known land,
A young spirit, untamed and wild,
Intelligence that the age calls,
And yet the yearns of a child,
Living and believing this teenage dream,
Waylaid and undone,
Random as random is a stream...
