Parents always tell their daughters:
"Don't stay late, it's not safe."

Can't parents tell their sons:
"Don't disrespect, do not ****.
They too are human beings,
just like you are."
Akriti May 3
When raindrops fall,
rivers are formed.

When teardrops fall,
epic poems are born.
Akriti May 2
Kindness touched a heart,  
the heart turned into a beautiful flower,
its fragrance is felt everywhere.
Akriti May 1
In a unique galaxy
somewhere in the sky,
special stars live there,
big and small alike.

One day, a lost asteroid
found itself among those stars.
The stars were kind;
they let it stay there,
and one fine night
turned it into a star.

Now it is shining bright.
Akriti May 1
Loneliness - a lonely word.
Waiting - a dreaded word.
Death - an unavoidable word.
Hatred - a hateful word.
Love - a sacred word.
Friendship - a trusted word.
Kindness - a kind word.

Smile - now, that is a beautiful word .



Don't you think?
Akriti May 1
What will I leave
when I leave
a bunch of words
for someone to read?

What will I leave
when I leave
memories of a life less lived?

What will I leave
when I leave
dreams that remained unfulfilled?

Whatever I leave behind
will stay behind.
Not be my companion
in that other world.
Akriti Apr 30
She was told:
"You are sold
    to an old
for some gold."
