Two Cups of Tea

Two Cups of Tea * Skies the lightest of blue, so far away, A gaze upon which my heart did sway, It resembled once an empty canvas, To be then sprayed with colour paints. * Meeting with early mornings for a change, For boredom invited sleep the night before, A chance to stare at the tiny dewdrops, A   Read More...

O dear! My eyes are brimming of sorrow,  Tears in valley of my cheeks, they flow.  Though we aren't away by meters or miles,  Yet it might take eternity to reconcile.  Thousands of things, left unsaid untold,  Just like a mystery on a long lost road.  It's just to sa  Read More...

The Wounds That Make Us
By dominique mcphearson in General Literary | Reads: 497 | Likes: 1
Rummaging through a dead man's things is, perhaps, the strangest thing I've ever done. I sit on the floor in his room. A setting, orange sun filtering through the window illuminates my surroundings. I breathe in pungent cologne that still clings onto the curtains. The carpet remains sunk, coincidin  Read More...

Again!
By Ankita Sanghvi in Poetry | Reads: 496 | Likes: 1
Again, I heard the alarm beep. Letting my despondency seep through my insides, I picked up each broken part, Inscribed words of Hope in my heart, And forced my haggard self To an old directory on a wooden shelf, Although I knew the number well by heart. I heaved a sigh as it rang, And silently praye  Read More...

My Melancholy
By Anushka in Poetry | Reads: 495 | Likes: 1
My Melancholy My grief, even if it's grief Is so pure, so holy. Unlike that decorated happiness I've found peace in my melancholy. I didn't realise when my sadness and solace became synonyms. I never knew my sorrows  were turning into religious hymns. Being loving and caring  always led t  Read More...

Thou art my entire world, My thoughts are not as old; Thine dazzling eyes art the glorious sun, That shot me like a machine gun; Thy smile is the part of gold mine, Which makest me completely fine; Thy neck is the gate of royal, Where only I fill my precious fuel; Thee art my gorgeous wise girl,   Read More...

Just A Thought

And just when it was thought we have become human, The cries and the sighs filled the gallies and that was no illusion; "But I never asked them to gather on my name, And never promised them for this any fame." And just when it was thought we have become human, His place became more mutant, looking   Read More...

Not another Shakespeare wannabe

Not that I don’t understand tough words, feelings please me. The depths of which I do get, although there’s not much left to praise. I’ve been overshadowed and hunted, by Shakespeare’s words and poets - Like how a tigress defeats a deer; I’m weak, and my words aren&rsqu  Read More...

Sleepless Night

Sleepless Night Those nights were unusually dark She saw nothing and felt nothing until she heard them. She missed something.  The wall, the fan, the mirror knew the story.  The wind which blew from the fan, asked her,  Don't I make you feel soft, like him?  There came no answer.  Read More...
