a Miss

Posted in Anirudh, Poems, Thoughts by Anirudh

I missed the moon and the stars..
a ray of sunlight…or two?
i don’t exactly remember..
but more than anything, i so missed you, yes..
i have been doing this since..last..august?

no not august..november..yes..NOVEMBER..!

it’s hard to write a poem or a song, when one is missing someone..
and more than that, if you sit down to write one,

its harder to rhyme your words.
it’s like..
pasting that pitch perfect cactus,
on the top of all absurds..
you know..in the process of missing you,
my nothingness has grown busy..

i have tried hard to find you
in the hotchy lanes of day,
and in the corners of my vacant dreamstreet..
but none’s too obvious or easy to show you..

and there stops my pen…

i will now go to sleep..i am tired..and my eyes are dizzy..

Why must I leave home
and strangle myself on this road
that never ends
yet never starts
help me
save myself

Malfeasance

Posted in Neha Jhingon, Poems, Thoughts by Neha

This Parched heart wants not
All the milk of human kindness
Just the dark cold ash
Of your once lit desire for me…

why you made a fool of me?

Posted in Kunal Goel, Poems by Kunal Goel

were you not joking then
last night when you said you
never really liked my dance
i mean i thought you liked it
when i danced in fact
i never danced before i met you
you said you liked it and
i worked to improve it but last
night you called it shit could it be
that you were in a bad mood then
in case you were not joking?
