Inner Demons

Sinking into the depths. Feeling that weight of guilt dragging me again. Hearing whispers in the darkness, Sweet lies And the truth that causes pain. These voices are of the demons inside me. Demons who holding me tight, Making me suffocate. I tried a lot to kill them, But seems like they are an integral […]

One Night Stand

I have moved on; At least that’s what I kept telling myself, But have my mind ever accepted what I say? So, I decided to try a dating app, Thinking, maybe this a great way, Not just to confirm the closure, And to reassure myself, But to tell everyone else that I’m not someone who […]

False Consciousness

What if I tell you that you are nothing but a cash cow? They are making you chase the money, For which you become their corporate slave! Then the system steal all that wealth you gain, By creating delusional reality, Spreading lies that are now so engraved in your brain. Look around, what you see? […]

PAST

First of all, I would like to say sorry to those of you who were waiting for the next part of The Captive of True Love. I am still working it. Anyway, yesterday, Anshika sent me her new poem and I wrote something in response and accidentally we did a new collaboration, here it is. […]

Stillness in Turmoil

While everything around me whirls and storms, I remain grounded. In the middle of all the turmoil Of all the intense energies and emotions, When it’s all just so dark, I cannot see anything, cannot touch or hear. I think about you, My heart feels your love. And I get clarity. With no pause between […]

Announcement!

Hola Awesomengers, I hope you’re having a great time. As the title of this post suggests, I have an announcement to make. (If you are connected with me on social media, you’d probably know this already) Well, I have been sharing my poems to people through my blog, social media accounts, but when they are […]

Nationalistic Rite

I suffer from the conflagration in my mind, Should I stay on the side of dissent? Or should I dive in the stream of the contemporary nationalistic rite? I worry that someday the reflections of my youth may pass me by, Like traces on the car window, Driving at 120 on the freeway, Haunting me, […]

Words

Dying embers. Wild flames. Twenty-six letters. A thousand names. Scratches on paper. Slender frames. Young words. Ancient games Wither and fade, Into an insipid blur. But with some Rhyme, Alliteration, Assonance, And consonance, Forming a battalion of lines And stanzas, Winning hearts, And breaking too. Leaves their mark. Forever. – Mahesh Mali.

Story of a lovesick fool

Lately, I found that I could not write about her, It’s not that there are no feelings to describe, It’s not even a problem of having second thoughts about those feelings. The problem is that no matter how much I have delved into my brain or how much effort I put into finding a way […]

Ineffable Friendship

It is an ineffable bond, It is passion past recognition, Caring from the depth of the soul, This is a connection so strong, So strong that it can hurt sometimes. Yet, It is so wonderful, Too intense to be pen down or capture, Amazing, astonishing feelings, Confusing feelings, Perplexed feelings, So very many feelings. Oh, […]
