Sky

She was pretty, intoxicating and every man's wildest fantasy. She searched for love in every kiss, in every hug, in every touch, in every promise, in every conversation.

Screaming in the silence of the night, this thumping, throbbing heart of mine. Seeks a calm that it cannot get, tries to shout but words fail it. So, I take my blanket, close my eyes              And try to become one with the abyss that right now presides.   Read More...

She stared at the empty tin box. She had half a mind to pry it open again. But she knew what she would find. And hope alone doesn’t fill a stomach, leave alone three. She looked out of the kitchen. Her children were playing there. Poor children don’t need toys to play, she thought to her  Read More...

'Amygdala'

We celebrated a man on the moon, but never raised a glass to that which gave us ‘here’. I don’t understand the obsession. If we do right by it, one world is enough.   A species risks itself by evolving. It is only fair. Creation calls for a continual shift in regime, like seas  Read More...

UMBILICAL CONNECT She smiles with tears in eyes, She weeps with nectar in heart, She greets with unbound cheers, Piousness never falling apart; She is a mother. They say the first day with you is best. Eyes half shut body begging for rest. Next day eyes peeping through the crib; And that novel surre  Read More...

How beautiful is the moon, the Goddess of the night bathed in an ocean full of milk, A vision of trance, in her unpigmented alabaster self, sending in her cherry kisses to my enthralled face, through the Midnight's breeze caressing my cheek, like the touch of lace and I, on the frozen floor of my du  Read More...
