You left me when,  I needed you the most, All those cacophonic years, I was with you facing them, I was there when you lost, I embraced you, I trained you, I made you what you are.  Yet you choose to deceive me,  You turned away, when i called,  You didn't care when i howled with  Read More...

Rose  In the nature's tapestry I once was in search of a wildflower  Each and every variety of flowers were discovered all unique in itself Radiating tranquil hues of pantheism I explored each one cautiously Loosing my rhyme and lyric I came across one such flower It's petals spooning eac  Read More...

Breath

She fell asleep by the window seat, The gentle breeze fondling her wild hair. Stirred by his warm breath, She opened her eyes in half hesitation, Only to find an empty seat beside. Remnants of some broken memories, Jerked out from the graveyard of past, And grinned at her brutally. Her eyes fixed fa  Read More...

Gray scales

I woke up to the sound of silence. Even though I hadn't been asleep for hours now. My eyes lit up and my heart skipped a beat as I let the quiet consume me and become one with it, which tasted rather bittersweet. Drowning in the pool of sweat I had created under me, as I twisted more into the blank  Read More...

Oh,rain!  Come back some other day.  I can’t share my pain today.  My doors are closed and windows too, the only destination I can travel to is the loo.  I feel a void inside me in this fuss , All because of a damn virus!  Going out is from what I am restrained, I wil  Read More...

Indian summers
By P. Sharma in Poetry | Reads: 719 | Likes: 1
Days are bountiful, nights are diminutive, Fun is more, boredom is less, When summers in India are on. No school for kids, They do as per their wish, Play all night and have sibblings fights, Day ends but their enjoyment never ends, When summers in India are on. Flavours and taste changes like sea  Read More...

IKIGAI

I plonked, Seeing all my strenous efforts turning into a fiasco, My heart fluttered. I cried in my mother's lap, Eyes hurting with anguish, She caressed my forehead and rekindled hope in me with the word"IKIGAI"! "Embrace who you are"! It showed me an untamed picture of myself, Filled with flaws, cr  Read More...

To love someone you have to understand someone. To love someone, you have to trust someone. To love someone, you should be clear like a glass with your partner. To love someone, you don't need to sacrifice anything. True love never fights, who fights means they have some grudges against them which   Read More...

I had reached Kolkata (then Calcutta) by air , in those good old days, when there was no Covid pandemic, no traffic jams, nothing. Being young, I had a carefree attitude and didn’t bother to plan either my travel or my stay in a city that I was visiting for the first time. Uncertainty is encha  Read More...

As the time will elapse,your memories would decay.. As you will be gone,your presence would slay.. Tied with the strings of norms,you will let go off me.. Broken apart,i will cluster myself and pose a smile.. That disguise curve on my lips will tell the pain i bore in me .. That shiver of my hands   Read More...
