RECYCLED LOVE
Pakhi Singhal May 2021
What happens to the love that has died
what happens to the love that once thrived

are there graves made
for the shattered to be laid

does it vanish into thin air
like it never had a rightful heir

does it become recycled love
the one that has turned and  tried to fit the earlier glove

books
Pakhi Singhal Apr 2021
i have been re reading the same book now for months
trying to find sign of life on those dead words
looking for shelter in those false lines

was told to change the book but from the same author
give another chance to appeal
the words are still lifeless
the lines are pretentious

the pages have turned yellow
the words have blurred out in my eyes
I don't understand the meaning anymore
the lines have begun to fade away at this point

Medcine
Pakhi Singhal Apr 2021
How many sins before the final medcine
The medcine of peace
When the soul leaves the body
When the corpse is burned
And the ashes are flow
Oh! How much I crave the medecine
But I know I am not prepared for that drug

I Tried
Pakhi Singhal Apr 2021
I tried, I tried, I tried
and I still cried

I tried, I tried, I tried
but I still slowly died

I tried , I tried, I tried
yet i want to hide in the light

I tried, I tired , I tried
this feels like a landslide

WALK IN
Pakhi Singhal Mar 2021
in a room full of people
i look for you
hoping u might walk in
and as soon as u
my eyes light up
like the stars at night
like the sun in the morning

then i remember
u have not come for me
You have come for her
you  walk straight up to her
to talk like your every bit has yearned for her

but i am happy
at least you walked in

That Tree
Pakhi Singhal Mar 2021
today I went to that  tree
u were not around
u weren't with me

u were with her
laughing your way back
and i was standing there

i saw u go
i saw the light in your eyes
and i knew it was time for me to leave

you wont be there anymore
Pakhi Singhal Mar 2021
you wont be there to save me
you wont be there for me
you wont be there anymore

for you have found someone new
she understands you
like i did
bit by bit

you look into her eyes
and know what she wants
like once u saw in mine

you laugh at her goofiness
you smile at her antics
you company her in escapades
you wipe her tears off
you make her giggle when she does not want to

while sweetheart i accept that now you wont be there to save me
you wont be there for me
you wont be there anymore......

Colours
Pakhi Singhal Feb 2021
they say the colours of happiness are few
I don't believe its true
for every colour has the grace
to contend a new face

MOM
Pakhi Singhal Feb 2021
MOM
I am like you Mom,
the young girl you were once

You told me to stand
but every time I did
why was I left to sob

You told me to be myself
I did
I tried
but they wished me to be the me they wanted to see

You told me to be the girl you were not
but here I writing
hoping I mark a spot

Go so far
Pakhi Singhal Feb 2021
I will go so far from you that you will miss the scent of me in every bit of your world

I will go so far from you that you will think twice before you even say my name

I will go so far that  even you would long to live our memories again

I will leave u forever but remember that you will always stay in my heart
and I "probably " in yours

YOU
Pakhi Singhal Feb 2021
YOU
the song played again
i tried to close my ears
it seeped through the gaps
It didn't affect me
but somewhere within
i was slowly dying

you texted me again
you called me again
i said myself to hold
it didn't affect me
but somewhere within
i was questioning myself how long

Happy
Pakhi Singhal Jan 2021
Soon your short lived momentary happiness will be over
all u will be left with will be the grievances of life
the pain that it teaches you
and that my love
will make u stronger and beautiful
most of all truly happy

pain
Pakhi Singhal Jan 2021
what does an artist do of pain
she dwells in his pain
she lives her pain of love
she lets the pain eat her
and when she is completely engulfed by the pain
she dips her brush in the paint of pain
and paints the most expressive piece
but the mortals call it art

Beautiful Things
Pakhi Singhal Jan 2021
you are all the colors i ever wished for
but they wiped away sooner than i hoped for

you were the star that i looked for
but your light exhausted faster than i  thought for

you were the rainbow that i gazed for
but i found the end earlier than i saw for

you were all the beautiful things i desired for
except the forever that we promised for

ash
My love rose from the ashes
like the phoenix
it has always been

Leaving my past  behind
to a lovely present
and a wonderful future

Confessions
Pakhi Singhal Jan 2021
i have got something to confess
swear i will speak the truth
i am not as strong
as i pretend to be
actually i am pretty weak
and have been bottling up so long
i cant hold it anymore
the world around me feels me
but i don't feel myself anymore
it feels i am trying to fit in my own world
i miss those memories
for it i want to live again
not to change
but to feel myself alive again...

end
Pakhi Singhal Jan 2021
end
ends come so soon
that u are not prepared for it

sometimes ends are so abrupt
that u have not planned for it

sometimes end are so disappointing
that ur heart cannot embrace for it

sometimes end is not the end
but a new beginning for it

— The End —
