Aaj pata chala ghar me aata kahan rakha hai, Kitchen ki almari ke dusre maale par jhaankar dekka, Toh pata chala, ki do mahine pehele kharida hua besan, Abhi bhi vaise ka vaisa hai. Jab bartan dhone gayi toh kamzor vim ka tukda mila, Woh bai bhi kitni mahan thi, jo us bechare sabun ko ghis ghis kar   Read More...

Sucidal thoughts.
By viraj in Poetry | Reads: 676 | Likes: 1
Sucidal thoughts.   Life is a gift, still people want to end it. We have good options to spend it, Still people want to end it.   People aren't the same, they change all the time, It's called evolution not a bloody crime.   Rough days are rolling, it's okay we are controlling, The pai  Read More...

Floating through a reckless river  Got to the boundless shore Celebrated it as a victory But it was all a lot more . Had to live numerous phases Had to face the countless edginesses Ran through them with all efforts But they went in vain as it was eternal   The deeds I did were given back   Read More...

Counting from Twenties to Forties
By Mridula Singh in Poetry | Reads: 357 | Likes: 0
In the early twenties, the world is a zeal. To conquer and make it kneel. The life's a ball game for you to catch. The tempest in the ocean is not your match. The next five years you yearn for a mushy affair. It's the time to lock your heart in someone's care. You juggle to settle or still bounce   Read More...

The Bus Journey
By Apoorva Vishnuvajhala in Poetry | Reads: 248 | Likes: 1
THE JOURNEY The big, brown bus stood  In all its glory, To add to its lifetime Yet another story. It had dusty seats,  All worn and torn. With a huge steering wheel And a siren-like horn. I got onto the bus, With others who had places to be. As usual, there was a huge commotion, With peo  Read More...

CODDIWOMPLE
By K. Vaishnavi in Poetry | Reads: 511 | Likes: 3
The world believes life should be prolific, Replete with satisfaction and happiness ; So does he. He thus wants to travel in a purposeful manner, He knows he has to move towards a vague destination ; He realizes he is a coddiwomple.

A letter to Pain
By Anam Sania in Poetry | Reads: 273 | Likes: 1
People left like it was soothing, to see my heart whilst bleeding. They dragged me to a place so dark, it was a sort of maze, with no exit mark. As I went on miles, all in vain, What remained with me, was my very own, pain. To deduce it's effects, so hard I tried, But deep buried in my chest, my hea  Read More...

"Carte Blanche": A freedom we shall achieve
