Split The Pain

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Poems by Neha

It was that day you left
To never come back again
That I decided to divide
The things you left behind.

I get the cup you broke
The day we made love
On the slab of the kitchen
You can keep the rest of them More

Jo Baat Hai Dil Mein

Posted in Love, Neha Jhingon, Poems by Neha

*First attempt at urdu Shayari*

Dil-e-aatish humein aasim banaya aapne,
Tammanaon ko naasur-e-aaraa kiya aapne,
Aashuftah chale they aashiyan ko apne,
Bejurm itlaaf ke humein hawale kiya aapne

O fire in my heart, you turned me into a sinner,
Turned all my desires into embellished wounds,
Tired to my core, when i thought of returning home,
You turned in my faultless soul to the ultimate ruin.

Silence of Centuries

Posted in Figments, Neha Jhingon by Neha

Silently, she left the dining table, the food on her plate still untouched. She struggled with her tears, lest they betray her sadness. Upon reaching her room and securing the door with the latch, she let out the flood of emotions inside her.

Yes. It is true. She was never a good daughter. She never thought of anyone but herself. She looked at the marks of the past on her body, cigarette burnt flesh and cuts from the shards of glass - the irremovable marks that he inflicted her with. Yes. She was selfish. Because she had loved. And because her love had abandoned her in her time of need. More

Lets paint the sky tonight

The Death of Mr. Love

Destinies

Torn from the middle
It hangs just mid-air
Like an unsolved riddle
In the wizening glare

Dil Ki Nagari

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Poems by Neha

Dil Ki Is Sunehri Nagari Mein
Milte Jaate Hain Bahut Dilwale
Muskurahat Chahte Hain Sabhi
Par Yeh Chhale Karun Kiske Hawale?

In This Golden Land Of Love
I Keep Finding A Lot Of Lovers
They All Want My Smiles
But Who Do I Trust My Blisters With?

Bye Bye Bangalore

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Non-fiction, Thoughts by Neha

The last thing I remember about leaving Delhi would definitely be the heavy sleet in which my father deftly manoeuvering the car safely deposited me to the airport. As I later disappeared into the surging throng of human bodies, I saw him stagger to the car, knowing that he had lost his daughter to the world. More

The Violence Continues

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Non-fiction, Thoughts by Neha

When I was younger, my grandfather used to tell me stories about Pakistan. He would tell me of the glorious days spent there, the riches, the land, the beauty and all that west Punjab was. The love that the neighbours shared, how easy trust came in those days and of course the ghost stories. No story of my grandfather’s could be complete without a mention of the supernatural. With my growing up, the nature of his stories changed. He began to finally tell me about the killings and the blood spilling that happened during the time of the Partition.

Of Optimism

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Poems by Neha

He felt the world tumbling around
A winged dream jaunted by
And slowly whispered in his ear
I know you worry, but why?
Too often it is that worlds fall down
But at least you have got me

Conversations With God

Posted in Comic, Figments, Love, Neha Jhingon, Thoughts by Neha

“So…? Is this the punishment for not being religious?”
“No… I mean not really.”
“Then? I mean… I know I haven’t visited a lot of temples. And I know I think of him in the only prayer I attend and I know you might be pissed because I climbed all the way to Pahwagrh and never went into the temple and I know you are irritated because I tell everyone that I do not believe in you when I secretly do… but aren’t you supposed to be forgiving?”
“Of course… but you have to remember what you believe in. Karma. You have a lot of bad Karma lined up against you.”
“What sorts?”

A Thousand Wishes

Posted in Love, Lust, Neha Jhingon, Poems by Neha

There lie a thousand silences
In the gaps between your fingers
But only one resolute apeal
In the width of your hands lingers
