Fire and ice
My heart was racing at the sound of the doorbell. There were butterflies in my stomach. Butterflies that I hadn’t felt in a very long time. I knew he felt the same on the other side of the door. I looked at myself in the mirror before letting him in. I thought he would grab […]

जहां तू रेहता था कभी (Where you once stayed)
I wrote something in Hindi which is my mother tongue and for some reason it gives me a different level of comfort when I write something in Hindi. It soothes my soul. But I know a lot of you are more comfortable in english so I’ve tried to translate the poem while struggling to maintain […]

Some more time to heal
I dreamt of growing old togetherAnd together we’d turn greyBut with every passing dayYour memory fades away. I felt darkness was there foreverThere forever from dusk to dawnWe stood still, while you were goneWhen life became a game of pawns. I find it hard to recall, hard to rememberTo remember, what life once was aboutI […]

Breathless
“One thing does not lead to another”. She said taking a small sip of her drink. “It does” . He said taking a large sip of his drink. “Come on Siddharth! Are you seriously telling me that you’ve gotten carried away in a “moment” and did something you wouldn’t normally do” “I wouldn’t put it […]

Is the mirror getting old?
She raises her doubts, to the figure in goldAm I pretty no more, or is the mirror getting old?She finds a scar on her face, she looks untoldAm I pretty no more, or is the mirror getting old? She looks at the glass, who looks back at herShe tries some make up, but it doesn’t […]

But why?
I can turn around. But why?Maybe look back and heave a sigh.To ensure, I didn’t walk too far.If you’re still waiting, to say goodbye. I can still fall apart. Can I?Hear another truth, hear another lie.To believe nothing mattersIf you really hated, to see me cry. I can still fake a smile. But why? Hide, […]
