there's a river flowing
inside my head, and
i can hear the sound
of words dancing
to the tune of violent
turbulence and pebbles.
life is a barren vacuum,
there's no light here.
darkness has a way of
shutting those who blink
even the slightest
but poetry is my last hope,
to bring me into existence again.
if my poem doesn't rhyme,
set my feet free please,
and I'll run fierce
like a free verse.
there are broken crayons
inside my bag and i wish
they befriend my emotions
and tell each other stories
of how it's impossible
to be whole again.
i've learnt quicker that
behind a broken heart
is a brain that feeds it
and that if a house
is full of demons, maybe
there are better confessions
than vacate and leave it empty.

I'm merely a stranger in your life, Yet I have known is only you.
I'm a summer noon in your life,and you're appealing sunset.
I'm scattered beads in your life, And, you're like my fav sautoir.
I'm unspoken feelings of a lover, you're the moment of confession.
I'm a stammering mouth, yet I have spoken first word is your name.
I'm like a love triangle in your life, but you're the only love line in mine.
I'm a broken glass of wine,but you're a vessel well design,
I'm a dark swampy forest, you're the only sunshine.
I'm merely a sentence in your life, yet I have filled library's with thoughts of you.

"I PROMISE".
What can you do for me? He asked!!!
Well! I can tell you my cosiest place
Where you can bellow out your ache.
You can put your head on my shoulder in hard time.
And I promise, I'll not budge for a while.
I can paste our pictures in my diary.
To keep our memories alive for eternity.
I'll make you feel wanted in the streets of my heart.
I'll make you believe in yourself after your every defeat.
When you'll get annoyed by my presence I'll give you space, make you free from me & my thoughts.
I'll please your eyes by my beautiful smile, also tease you by your funny names. Whenever you feel low, there would be my shoulder,so you can cry upon.
I'll love you till my last breath, and especially when you feel unattended, I'll give you all of me,
I'll give you all of the best parts of me. I promise.

"YOU WANT IT, JUST GET IT".
Please don't stop, ask for it, claim it.
it's yours, totally yours, you deserve more.
What can be yours, what should be yours, doesn't decided by them, you want it, just get it.
you can't defined by their set of rules, because you make your own and follow them.
“In a society that profits from your self-doubt, Start investing in your growth just start liking yourself, don't make them profit, not a buck".
Self contemplating can't help you,
you're not just a toy, not for pleasing one's libido. Please, you are the hope of many fettered feet, fettered by being hopeless, worthless, useless for this patriarchal society.
If you gonna raise your voice, this would be gift to thousands of voiceless mouths.
You'll be guide to them, so please take a step, take a lead,for riding speed.
You're much more than you know yourself.
You are the Goddess Spes , full of hopes and lives.
Stop believing them, they want you to be always clueless.
So, don't let your guards down, show them you're the Jupiter.

Title : Wallflower
While tying up pony, she was thinking,
declining would had been a better idea,
her unwillingness, had always been her panacea,
To bring down all the worldly hassle.
Lingering over self is one of her fav bustle.
Even,when I got no friends, I love my company extremely,
she was murmuring while strolling along an alley.
Mama, Am I looking ugly?!, she asked sadly,
Although she knew the answer so sure already.
Mum likes me even when I can't like myself.
How cute she's, unlike all.
Going to a party isn't her Idea at all, but for mama she can do whatsoever,at one call.
As we set foot on the party, I got easily distracted by everyone's keen eyes.
Is my hair alright, what about my cosmetics?
My plumpy body isn't party fit at all.Aah! what a melodrama!
I couldn't hide the vehemence of my reaction, from mama.
She came to me, put her hand on my shoulder, all I did is stare.
She told, Even Wallflowers can be grown in garden. why don't you try to communicate?
Being a wallflower was not my choice, but this is what I'm, I won't deny.
Ohkay, I can do it, C'mon,take a deep breath and let's give it a try.
I teetered, towards a girl, and hushed in a
muffled voice, " Hi "!
She looked, direct into my eyes,I almost got to cry.
After that, all I could heard is,"You are the one from south block of the town, "Right"?!
I said, " Yes ".Hi ,Can I be your friend ?,She asked upright.
I glanced, at mama, she nodded in agreement,"Yes", was I said.
Mama, was always right, even wallflowers
can get along with peeps without hatred.

Title: "War" :(
War could make you feel deterred,
It could wreck your whole world.
War between two nations,
War between two communities,
War between two thoughts.
War could snatch your identity,
It could sieze your entity.
Many children grew up without their fathers,
Wives left alone, insurance salesman became rocket launchers.
Artists lost their existence,
All were the aftermaths of war.
Children lost their parents,
Amateurs lived lives of paupers.
People lost God's grace,
Noncombatant strayed from their residence.
Hospitals became prayer halls.
Cementries listened wails,
What not?!
War is the result of incessant hostile thoughts,
Million more innocents, million more onslaughts.
Yes, we got praised.
Got praised for what?!
Winning war or loosing trust.
As all wars are civil wars first.
Because all men are brothers.
Even after several years,
We are unable to free ourselves,
from the shackles of distress.
War is nothing but a cowardly escape,
from the problems of calmness.

A Drowning man
It's the undertow
That hit me in my bed.
In a moment,
My life was out of my hands.
One moment it's bright
Other- I'm trying to turn on my lights,
But life's made me blind.
I fall,
Crumple up on the floor.
It's too heavy to bear this loss.
I'm tossed across
These wicked waves of grief.
Drowning in my agony,
I wish nothing but love.
But where did that go?
Lost in the void of this deadly snow.

Tyrant
Tyranny of my mind,
Abandoning me everytime.
I call,
Stand up for me!
Call me back to home.
Home? You say,
It doesn't feel like so.
Shouldn't have to walk on eggshells,
Just living across the walls.
It's not home .
You are not safe.
Tyranny of my mind,
Abandoning me on the gate.
I try to run away,
Those threads tie me down to ends.
I cut loose,
And then I fall.
No I can't! you say.
Telling me how weak I am.
So when I am strangled again,
Cycle will repeat in my brain.

Yearning
Sometimes,
All I want is to walk away.
Somewhere,
Faraway from your reach.
Somehow,
Out of your hands.
Slipping,
Away into the abyss.
Sometimes,
Your love is the worst of my pains.
Somewhere,
Inside my heart I'm broken.
Somehow,
All my feelings are lost and frozen.
Slipping,
Far into bleeding oceans.

Hurts
Darling I know it hurts;
The burning flesh of wounds no one can see,
Bothers you even in your dreams.
I know you bleed everyday,
Tears that turn to pearl.
But the pearl is all they see.
All they see is you smile through your agony.
But I know it hurts to hide,
And hurts even more to admit.
So let me help you
By not asking you anything instead.
Cause even when you don't say
I can feel your soul drown,
Everytime you take a breath.
But it's usually dark before the dawn
So I want you to hold on till then.

Razorblade
I saw you walk besides me,
Holding my hand for security.
Taking me to dream lands I haven't been,
Showing me scenes I have never seen.
Then we were apart,
Walking on a razor blade.
Hate and love just went hand in hand.
I hate you; I love you, I repeated again.
But I hated me more than anything I could explain.
You were what I loved,
But never my idol I must admit.
I still love you, but only at my own risk.
For I know you can't be relied on;
For I know you are just a disappointment.
But I still need you here by my side
To hold me, help me, love me like you do, always.
