Is there electricity failure ?

Sitting with her
Adoring the stars
She raised her tiny finger to the sky
Point to one twinkling in the west
"Mumma, does that star has name like me?
It's so bright
It's just like the one in my drawing book
Small but bright."

She had no good answer to it
Besides smiling and saying
"Yeah it does have a name but will ask her mom
Just like you did ask Anne about her's."
And thought clouds passed her
He too was lost star
Whom she was curious about
But just as she was unaware of answer to her daughter question
May be universe was unaware of the lost star
Or may be she wasn't sure with her question
It's true your parts are lost in the universe
And she found the one
Sitting right besides her
Settling her life long raised questions

"Mumma, that star is not there.
Where did it go?
Will the moon find him?
Is there electricity failure?"
Laughing to which she had said
"They slept."
And she said alot many things to herself.
'May be the star has left, left forever.
To find his way back to light
Until then the moon is just helping the others to shine, to hold on to hopes.
May be the star has left for others to be found.

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...

The shying words

How do you believe the moon isn't whispering your stories to someone aren't the chance of him whispering it to some writer high May be one of the reasons why you related to the story yesterday on Netflix May be that's how your crushes end up in your favorite color today May be that's how you cleared the interview today How do you know the moon isn't working on his script with your lines If you can believe someone that far How do we end up doubting the skin and flesh besides and around us If we don't hold expectations and grudges when it comes to him Why wonder for years over a message that din come through I don't understand how we whisper our secrets to the mountains and the sea but fear of losing them against the people we breathe with How do we trust the living forms breathing without the flesh over the living we can touch and feel How do I trust the paper with my words and strangers with my smiles With every question I pen I end of writing hope, belief, ...

The dinner was set.

She had made his favourite food Dinner table set His favourite show was opted to feel him in his absence And then there was sudden knock on the door The knock was familiar And so was the face But still was unknown person Unable to stand on his feet Tumbling from left , stepping two and then right. She was shook. But helped him to the bed instead of the dinner table She hadn't done this today But was living it from past one month If you want to know One month ago The guy tumbling down like a bottle Was a person waking up to her calls Of course not the first call but of course with her only calls Instead of the good morning thing Her ears had heard "Thanks for the breakfast its yummy" Instead of love you , it always came "Stop watching saas bahu they end up to same." The dinner table slept with the food And she slept nursing his hair The bird chirping had woke them She wanted an answer from him The reason why was his losing...

Blissfully inhaled and exhaled
