Backseat Driver

Sometimes,
Emotions take up the role
of a backseat driver
while Logic drives drunk,
ready to crash...

And maybe that's why life gets ****** up. ..

Secrets

Of all the secrets,
you are the one
I would have exposed,
shamelessly ...

Suffocation

I stray away
from every pair of arms
which attempts
to enclose my being.

Flawed

Look at me.
Defects and flaws,
I wear them as
my crown.

Complexities

Gaps and distances,
and what's in between them,

innocent questions and
gruff answers, spoken offhandedly;
tones which speak volumes...

just like that
...love rekindles.

Reset

If it worked like a
twenty-four hour clock,
I would have reset
the hands of life
to one.

Barking Letters (Limerick)

There was once a poet in Shanghai,
who forgot to dot each of his 'i's
and left the 't's unmarked,
so his 'm's and 'w's barked,
making him poke himself in the eye!

Just a silly one.
