Sakshi Rajput Feb 2018
The misery
He is going through
Is not because of
The external wounds,
But the disappointments.
Every day,
Sitting in the backyard
On the chair,
He keeps staring
At the door and
Dies in the hopes.
May be at the age of sixty
He desires of a joyful
And a gladsome family.

The blank in his eyes
Is scaring me.
He couldn’t recognise
The voice,
Which once was
His only choice.
I can see my existence
Being erased slowly
From the fate lines
Of his palm.
His hollow memories
Resisting me to trace,
To trace his fingerprints
On my every dream,
Which now are
Nightmares.
It’s a betrayal, a betrayal of time.
The tick-tock of the
Running watch
Seems to eat me.
The tears are afraid to shed,
May be because
There is somebody
Who forgot how to hold on.
Sakshi Rajput Feb 2018
At the age of eighty
When you’ll be looking
For a hand to grasp,
I’ll become your crutch
Instead,
To walk with you and
Light up your every dream.

At the age of eighty
When you’ll be trying
To read
Your favourite novel,
I’ll become a nightingale
And sing every word of it
Melodiously.

At the age of eighty
When you’ll have wrinkles
And scars
All over your face,
I’ll be in love with you
With all my heart
As I’m today.
Sakshi Rajput Feb 2018
Today you are graceful,
Your eyes are twinkling
Like little stars.
Today you are
Admired by many
Because your charm is
Perfect.

But,
One day these hair
Will go grey,
Your face will
Get wrinkled and
You will be sitting
Quite on a chair and
Remind the days of
Your soft look.

Then,
That one man who loved
Your inner swiftness
Will cherish every
Beautiful change in you
And will love
Your pilgrim soul,
Because the beauty
Fades away but not the
Soul.

The elegance of that
Black eclipsed night,
I think
There can never be
This better sight.
Once I saw
Glimpse of those
Black coloured eyes,
That left me in
Immense delight.
I was lost
In the shine of her
Black dense hair,
That tied my heart
With all the might.
Sakshi Rajput Feb 2018
You might only see her outer cuts
And torn clothes,
But the depth of her inner grief
Can’t be thought up.
Her dreams are meeting to death
And she is becoming home to sufferings.
Her body is going through many hardships
And her shaking hands,
they fear to greet.
Though she is standing but her feet are shivering.
She is blaming to self.
Her colourful world is turning
Unusually into black and white.
Though she is a sufferer
But you all are staring at her viciously.
Now she is afraid of this world of demons
And horrified by your judgments.
Her life is lesioning.
All she is asking for is justice,
But the path to it is becoming cruel.
Sakshi Rajput Feb 2018
She might have stepped down
From the paradise
With beautiful stars in her curls
and glossy eyes.
She lightened up my heart
When I was fighting alone
With the dark.
Her alluring soul is
Wiping out the beast
Residing inside me.
Her warmth
and the shining butterflies
She brought
Making my existence
Kind and wise.
