You

-



Day within day,
My nights are for you.
Masks are for them,
Marks are for you.

Words are for them
(elegant, adorned and embellished);
Sealed with symphonies,
My silences are for you.

Stars are for them,
And so are the flowers.
Heart is for them,
My aches are for you.

Sighs, giggles, tears,
Dark circles are for you.
Victories are for them,
My battles are for you.

Wild, vulgar and dark,
Wack, vulnerable, dope;
For you are my struggles,
Chaos is for you.

Them stretches that I wear,
Hostilities that I fear,
My rules are for them,
My crimes are for you.

    The way you knit words
    And express yourself
    Makes you desireable
    My wishes are for you

कल उसने एक रात ओढ़ी थी

कल उसने एक रात ओढ़ी थी; चाँद को माथे पर लगाया था।  एक डिब्बी जुगनू लपेट; अंगुली भर तारे समेट; रात की रानी के साथ पिरो -  बालों में गजरा लगाया था।  कल कलाई पर कुछ क्यारियाँ,  एक कालीन हथेली पर  सजा कुछ तितलियों से और तर्जनी पर सूरज किरन; उसने चंदन इत्र उढ़ेल  आँचल पर गुलशन महकाया था।  उसने चंद्रमुख बेला पिरो लक्ष्य रस में डुबो कर,  कल एक पाँव में बाँध  और दूसरे में खरी चांदनी,  मनभावन मृग चाल से बीहड़ में सरगम खनकाया था।  ***

Metamorphosis

Image
Yesterday, she stretched her arms on the street freely as an eagle flexes its wings in the sky,  Taking the whole well-deserving space;  It's breast straight up and head proud.  But today, as I was searching for a corner  to hide from the rockets, I found her shrunken  like a scorpion, hiding behind the closet;  Clawed, defensive yet fearful.  Tomorrow if we meet again, if only;  She and I will find each other climbing walls and  houses of other people,  like two house lizards, in search of insects;  Chirping only when its dark and lonely.  ***

To All the Fuckbois I Have Loved Before

Rahul is a  cheater  fuckboi!  He is a  cheater  fuckboi!  Scene-Still from Saawariya (2007) by Sanjay Leela Bhansali starring Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor  Rahul came into my life when I was on the threshold of my teenage. Standing on the edge of my teendom cliff, I felt no less than Holden Caulfield except that here, I wanted to happily jump off, thus, falling into the hell that they refer to as adulthood. I killed my mockingbird for him. I wanted to adult for Rahul. He with his Peter Kavinsky smile triggered my primal instincts; driving my animal out of the Sundarbans into the sophisticated jungles of concrete; causing a little catastrophe in my world. Rahul flipped my Universe upside down, easily becoming the centre of my being, and I began to associate myself with Simran, a complicated combination of Maya and Nisha, and Anjali. Rahul was my only boo but I did not turn out to be his only bae. He carelessly bro...
