Blooms OR Ashes?


When they found you in each word of mine
When they found you in every hour of mine
They all threw a common question
Why?
Did I loved you?
Were you my crush?
Until then you were just a friend of mine.
But then the nerves of the head started to ponder
And the beats of the heart, tried to sync with questions.
When couldn't conclude,
Started to note the bits and pieces of you rather all of you and bits and pieces of me.
Then it all came as chapters,
All scribbled but yet incomplete.
There's no perfect reason of involving you in the day
No bad habits of you discovered.
No specific reason to narrate them about the happenings with you.
It was not just your vocals to leave me numb.
It was not just how you heard all stories of mine
Without any lines on the fore-head
And any cotton in the ear.
It was never about your looks
Until a day the pupils met your smile.
Penning it all leaves the ink to dry
And words hard to replace the happening
Of the head and the heart.
Before the ink dries again,
And pen goes spell bound.
Just as they -'Everything happens for a reason'
Denial of all
Ready to accept -'Happy that you happened to a heart of mine'

Normal problems please !

  I miss the normal problems I miss mom scolding me for being late from work I miss being stuck in traffic when out for office I miss being out with my friend and then planning another outing I miss the gossips at the coffee shops I miss the crowd at McDonald's I miss waiting for my chance in the queue of burger King I miss seeing the teenage girls in sarees for farewell in college waiting the bus and the train I miss seeing the boys trying to fix the loose tie standing by their crush I miss seeing dad care free about us being out of home I miss the normal problems The news of people dying is suffocating The news of all the chance for this virus vanishing is nowhere They talk of precautions  Now each day seems a achivement Now each but of oxygen seems a reward Now washing hands seems the only hygienic essential Now being around your loved once seems so terrifying You can't touch them  You can't hug them You can't even wipe their fear tears You can just stand their prayi...

That notification

When I received your message today  I was on my way to office, I smiled to your text but missed to reply Today when my phone buzzed with you name with a message underneath  I peeped at it and missed to reply, again! The other day when I received your message, I was out with a friend so I kept it on unread to reply later But I slept  And days followed  Your name kept shining everyday I kept going without replying to them on time or even not But you stayed  So the other day when I didn’t see your name in the notification bar  I missed you, only to realise I missed to live the moment of the words that you shared  The moments you remembered and I failed to live it again because I was just lost  While you stood on the door  I was just wondering here and there  Ignorant of the fact that the sun will set and it will be night soon You will close the doors  To sleep with moon outside the window

I am stupid with love

The ceiling  The fan The curtains The door The windows All are still With the silent Breeze making its way into the room Like the thoughts in my head I can hear the ticking of the clock  The heart knocks against my chest Sometimes even the a sound of my eye lids flickering  On the thoughts that are non stop I cry to myself in the head  "Nobody loves me." Before I throw another tantrum  My head replies Your family loves you. And i suspend that answer  Thinking of  A friend i have known since 10 years now A friend who can read my thoughts through the phone screen Just by knowing me through a year A boy whom I had met years ago  I don't even remember the length of his smile Of the shape of his head or the position or the color of his hair But I think of that boy When I say nobody loves me. Now the irony is  None of the three people  Like to express love in words  Or in loud gestures And i crave for words  But if they tell those wo...
