Let Soul free
Pen in hand, gracefully crafting,
Soulful ink on paper, gently bleeding.
Heart whispers, aching and screaming,
Words entwine, a tapestry weaving.
Poetry pours from within, emotions flooding,
Unlocking the depth, feelings overflowing.
Each verse unlocks the heart, secrets unfolding,
In each line composed, emotions consoling.
Calming, serene, a spirit undying,
Heart alight, soarin...

Oh almighty,

dear God, please be there for me.

Palace
Collect your pieces again and again,
Keep building your palace again and again.
Right time may not come,
but face all the hardship
all the stone to build something beautiful again and again.
I thought to take rest,
but destiny wants me to be strong forever,
until the last breath.
Destiny chose not to give me peace but the palace.
So I accept it now,
embrace it witho...

If there was a rain like such
Oh God,
If there was a rain like such,
the heart gets purified,
from the charcoal of betrayel,ego, pessimism, hurt,
from the deeds of others or self,
burdening it with the clutter.
washing away the worldly sins and pain,
making it pure and innocent like a baby's soul.
Why life is full of suffering when it can be a fair of joy?
God, smiled and replied

To Fix or wave goodbye?
Fix once,
the benefit of doubt.
Fix twice,
might be human mistake.
Fix thrice,
your love and effort to make it work.
Fix fourth time,
with the demise of self respect.
Fix fifth time,
and get gift of for granted treatment in return.
Fix sixth time,
return gift is disrespect.
Fix seventh time,
and you will learn why you need to move on or end yourself.

The rain
The rain over ocean,
water on salty water,
raising the tide,
trouble for the ship.
The rain over desert,
the place it is desired,
quenching the thirst,
of passer-by and plants.
The value of water in the place it is waited and desired,
not the place where it is abundance to vain.

Wings of angels 😇
When the angels landed,
from heaven to earth with their tiny feet on the sand.
In the form of infants,
of humans, animals, birds or pets.
With the invisible & infectious wings,
of innocence & finding happiness in every little things.
With every invisible flaps,
sprinkling the spark of joy on earth.
Dont know where the invisible wing disappears,
with the departu...

Light
If the light of soul and heart,
outshines like the flair of art.
I wish if intentions were heard,
unlike the blabbering meaningless words.
I so wish if there was some mirror,
to reflect the soul more clearer.
I wish and so wish,
how sweet things might be to cherish.
How serene everything could be,
unlike the beautiful heartless concrete.

Bubble or void
Just like a bubble you disappeared,
It was for years yet not enough.
The affection and altruistic care,
it was just you and just you
You were a person till yesterday,
and today you are just a memory.
I lost the only person who had cared for me,
in this selfish and materialistic world.
I wish and can just wish,
If I could talk endlessly with you.
And let my heart out,

Inside the box
The bird of optimism,
followed the sun ray of joy,
knocking the closed ventilator,
of the box in head,
the jail of overwhelming thoughts,

refreshing the mind,
the chirping bird with twig of creativity,
creating the nest of innovation,
ideas and optimism,
with the open mind,
is now filled with sunshine and songs,

Advice to younger self
If given chance what would you advise to the younger version of self?
I would ask my younger self
to worry less and keep working,
things will fall in the place once time is right.
To trust not so easily,
trust is like diamond,
don't give to everyone.
Make self a priority,
at last but not the least,
learn to appreciate self.
That is all about me, what about you...

Words, eyes and vision
How peaceful the relationship would be,
if words and intentions are aligned,
no deception just version of soul purifed.
Paradise the earth would be,
if eyes could see heart and ears could hear unspoken words,
distinguishing the cheese on trap or fruit for charity.
This beautiful world,
free from chaos of imposter or saints,
innocent, pious and easily understood.

Lifeline of pets and us
Why do dogs and cats depart early?
To prepare grand welcome for us in heaven?
Or because they love us more,
& so much that they can't bear it for other way round.
And hence they wave us goodbye early,
the pure soul evaporating like morning dew before noon.

Why me?
Why me?
Is the question of everyone around me.
Cursing the misfortune,
forgetting the blessings & hope.
It might be dark & cold today,
But there will be sunshine another day.
Just keep walking,
cherishing the flowers on the path & birds singing.
Smiling and nodding off
"Why me, why always me"?
because it is not just about me.

The Spectacle
The spectacle of optimism or pessimism,
Frame life's vision thru' 'this prism
Optimism spectacle was all merry,
Fragrant earth with greenary.
Birds chirping, blossoming flower
Blessed seemed everything with this shower.
The season of spring with all hope and joy .
Ahh, the pessimism one was quite gloomy,
Thorns , falling leaves and trees were prickly.
Life was stuck in autumn, dan...

I don't want
I don't want to be ogled,
while walking in street,
being comfortable in my own skin,
wearing a short skirt,
or a denim or a saree or a hijab.
Inside the attire it is me,
yes the same me in every dress.
I don't want to be judged,
for my choices or the opinions
or my voice or my silence.
in solitude, intimacy or in front of crowd.
I don't want to be name...

Strokes of the scar
The scars of something broken,
inside the heart,
is not for breaking the spirit,
but to build something new,

that painting of color,
defining the vision and you.

Jazz of soul
I thought to pick the color,
painting the sky and ocean,
with tales and scenery,
thoughts and dreams,
hope and happiness,
all the ups and downs.
Playing the music,
with symphony
of dreams and hopes,
laughter and giggles,
nodes going up and down,
while the soul kept singing and dancing,
on its own beats,
with no obligations or boundaries,
creating the jazz of arts and emotions

Choices over desires
The day when I decided,
what I will not..
And what I Will..
Moving on..
from the chaos and further wreckage..
Preventing the further mess.
I decided to be the best version of myself.
I chose self esteem over suppression.
I chose to love myself the way I truly deserve.
I chose YES I chose.
I wish if I had chosen before.
And favored myself with the ch...

The wanderer
I don't know why or what
but the soul kept wandering,
in the forest,
like musk-deer for musk.
In the desert of mirage,
soul craving for oasis.
The soul kept wandering and wandering,
for desires with inquisitive mind.
From one milestone to another,
for an unknown voyage.
Desire for destination or the thrill of journey,
the soul kept wandering and wandering.

Neighbour's nightmare is your dream,
while yours nightmare is the neighbour's dream.
Neighbour's misfortune you desire as a blessing,
the neighbour desired for everything, what is yours misfortune.
How strange it is, you neglected the light,
which was desired by others.
Making me question for what you cribbed,
was that actually a nightmare or the dream?

Oh! the rain sky poured,
And I stole sometime from busy life,
clearing the mess of my room,
to do my favorite task.
Oh! the tiny water droplets,
falling in laps of the mother earth,
with some thunder and lightning,
playing the music of rain.
The dance of nature,
and green leaves of trees,
playing and refreshing itself with zillions of tiny droplets of rain.
The aroma of rain,

Plight of Migrant Labor Covid19 2020
I was always a supporter for our govt. Whether it was demonetization or lockdown, we tried to find the good. But the plight of migrant labor is heart wrenching. The wailing kids, ladies trying to carry as much as possible with desire of reaching home. In anguish multiple questions arise, while such mass movement of the migrant labor happened during lockdown where was the district administration, s...

Sand, sand castle and me
Oh the mesmerizing sand,
I so tried to be with you.
But you belong to the beach.
I also knew it,
yet I attempted,
and build the sand castle
Imagining it a true castle,
I desired many dreams,
And you stayed for few more moments.
Unless the wave,
that brought me back to reality,
what I was aware yet unaware.
And sand went back,
to the beaches,
where it belong.
I still hoped,

Why "it" never got affection from elders unlike other kids?
Why world was different for "it"?

Why "it" becomes the object of cheap humor and lust?
Why "it's" desire to dress up was considered inappropriate?
Why "it" has to suppress the desires?

How will I know if it is authentic,

Or let the circumstance decide,
with filing of tough time,
authenticity of the Pearl.
When the original remains as it is,

Wing and fin
Wing was the queen,
of her own world,
chirpingly happy with itself.
Fin too was a queen,
of her own world,
uniquely calm in itself.
Amazing they were unless,
they tried to be queen,
in other's world,
and lost themselves,
the wing and the fin.

With the golden silicon,
Shining in sun,
so mesmerizing it looks,
I tried to hold it in my hand.
But it slipped,
why it can't be with me,
it just kept on slipping,
from my grip.
I thought to set it free,
it doesn't belong to me,
no matter how much I desire,
I set it free
Washed my hands,
and let it be with the land,
free like it is,
setting myself free too.

Hope and sunshine
Sometimes hope is all we want,
just like the ray of sunshine,
after darkness,
Or the first drop of rain,
after scorching tormenting summer.
Sometimes hope is enough to spread the smile,
for the face that wept all night.
To try again with all the strength,
for the one who failed again.
Yes, sometimes hope is everything,
like the words "Don't worry everything gonna be alright"

What is it?
Is it about being superior,
Or being inferior,

Or outraging the modesty,
Or just to be a rebel to prove it,
Or to discard culture stating it old fashion,
Or it could be
Soft and sensitive,
Genuine and kind,
Feminine and strong,
Calm and peaceful.
Or it could be
to stand up after the s...

The blood of the dreams,
screams of people,
turning the soil from brown to red,
Janeu somewhere, kara somewhere,
while the namaj topi stained red lying somewhere.
Unable to distinguish the blood,
if it were of kid, mother or father,
or of Hindu or Muslim or Sikh or Christian,
because it was red for all,
unlike the religion of deceased.

Sunshine is brightest,

With her tiny wings,

She saw her siblings flying,
and so her neighbors,

jumping from the nest.
She fell down,
her wings were not strong enough,
unlike her aspirations.
She injured her body,

Darkness and light
The clutter of
insecurities, phobia and nightmare,
in my heart,
Can't reject you anymore.
I accept them.
The way I accept,
confidence, strength and dreams.
To keep the balance,
for realistic approach.
Darkness and light,
both makes me a human,
perfection blended with streaks of flaws.
Accepting them was my first step
towards accepting myself.

Just like the passing phase of life.

Sometimes hurt by stepping on prickles,
Petals teaching us the kindness,

The sun which was once loving,
danced with fierce rage,
burning up the earth,
with the torturous heat,
turning ambience dry and burning,
making the earth to scream for gentleness.
Her heart was burning,
so her surface,
The cracks on her lips
and streaks of dry leaves,
her charm was evaporating in the air.
She just wanted to be like what she was before,
