POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing since last two years. Writing poetry really makes me happy.
If I go back in time
If I ever get to go
Back in time.
I won't see wars
Not a single crime.
I would see if love existed in past
which the scholars call the ancient time.
I would make them meet
Who were meant to be
But never destined.
I would cover the world
with a cloak of love.
Or would inject love in clouds
So it could rain evenly in every heart.
They would barter things
In exchange of love.
Only love would be farmed
In the field of heart.
There would be no envy
That gives birth to every crime ...

Your book and the memories
Today I opened that book again
Which once you had given.
Every line, every word
Reminds me of how you used to dictate it then.
Your intonation
Over every full stop and every exclamation
Today I feel them lingering in my head again
After traveling long from my memory land.
I know it had gone too far,
It took me long to send it there.
But now when they have found their way back
They are not gonna leave without
Unpacking few more memories sack.
Can you see this bookmark?
It still has that laughing emoji on...

Like an earth she was
Like an earth she was
Carrying all the loads
Laughing like a wave on the shore
Bringing life to dust
Keeping pain Inside its crust.
Like an earth she was
Attaining all their needs
Keeping mouth at ease
And a frequent smile like some breeze.
Like an earth she was
But the world called her a woman
And forgot she was indeed a human
Used her in as many ways as they could
And I never saw her complain for anything
Coz she never would.
From morning to night
She used to be on a work ride.
A single...

Creativity it is
Creativity it is
Where one speaks
And others just don't.
Those who can ask for dinner
Eats.
While others who can't
Sit quiet till their hunger sleeps.
Creativity it is
Where countries creates bio weapon
To take lives of others.
And it leads to the death of
those street wanderers
Who have no idea what it means.
Today when I fed a street dog
He stood their even when I was gone.
Was he waiting for me to bring some more?
Will he be their tomorrow again?
If yes, how long will I feed him?

Celebration of love
There are days when sun looks brighter
There are nights when moon looks pale.
Those time when I walk alone on the road
Having memories of my loved ones on a trail.
I don't know the pain
Unless it leaves.
Like it happens
On new year eves.
Celebration of love
With my loved ones.
Their tear filled eyes
When they see me come.
Holding them in arms
Crinkles in my eyes
I wish that celebration comes more often
When evenings are spent with laughter and delights.
Celebration of love

Pain that I got
When I was with you
Life seemed like an euphoria.
Nothing seemed tough
That I couldn't have, I couldn't do.
And you know I could have walked oceans
If you had asked me to.
And then when you asked
For me to go,
There was no reason
I wouldn't do things you wanted,
And I showed.
Thank god for the pain
That I got
When you broke my heart into pieces
like a hurricane on some shore.
That pain made me
Meet myself.
Which was earlier enfolded with the
Dust of your love
Which I thought to be...

Doubt
A seedling of doubt
That's what she grew.
His negligence watered
And the barren it drew.
It spread with touch
Everyone knew.
Few could escape
And to few, it drew.
That's what she grew.
His negligence watered
And the barren it drew.
It spread with touch
Everyone knew.
Few could escape
And to few, it drew.

Success is stalking you
Success is stalking you.
But still you run looking for it?
You'll always be ahead of it
But still miss the touch of it.
Slow down and
take a deep breath.
Or you would keep running
Till you meet death.
Turn around
and see what you have.
Gather your hardwork
And set them in the fire
Fire of perfection.
Success is here
Not beyond the line.
Show it the perfection
And let it make you shine.

Your eyes, my little paradise
Walked thousands of miles
Seen millions of doors
And then, like a exuberant wave
I hit your shore.
Inside your twinkling eyes
My whole world lies.
My everything is in them
Except for me,
No matter how hard I try.
Giving up on you
Is never a way.
Your chasmic eyes
are where I wanna stay.
Someday I'll be there
And you would not even know
I'll steal all your glance
And then I'll show,
Something that is still
Invisible in your eyes,
And my love will become everything for you, ...

The white orchid
I will give him a flower today.
Not those red, pink or yellow, green.
It's a just a white orchid.
I remember the day
when he brought me some red.
And I asked him to exchange it for a plant instead.
A year has passed since then.
I know he would find it awkward
And can say that
I don't stand by my own words.
Believe me I would listen
To everything he would say.
I'll accept my mistake
And keep my ego at bay.
I will close him in my heart
And won't let him go.
Let me see him once,
And I'll...

Intoxication
Intoxication is in those
Hanging snow White fluffy bed.
Where all day all my
Dreams rest.
And at night
Before it turns off the light,
I make sure to take them back
And keep them safe near the window
By my side.
Intoxicated my dream is
Coz it never sleeps.
All night, it competes with
The moon light,
And wins.
The moon and stars
Grouse about it.
They envy too.
But will never discern
How I make them shine
By intoxicating them with
Rapture and rhymes.
My rhymes is no...

Dreams rest.

I call it a grace
When the whole world
Is staying alone together.
There's no more talk about
Work and weather.
You're right Infront of me.
What do you call it baby?
I call it a grace.
It's such a big world to be in
Where one can lose themselves
Without even knowing.
Then how did you end up near me?
What do you call it baby?
I call it a grace.
Oh no, you don't know me.
Call your stars
Whom I have bribed
Told them to show me.
You.
When it's light
And when it's dark.
What do you call it baby?
I...
Is staying alone together.
There's no more talk about
