You’re Not Alone

Listen to the Spoken Word version of this poem *** To those who are alone during this lockdown,I’m one of you.So, I know how it feels like waking up just to go back to sleep,I know how it feels to check Twitter obsessively,I know what it feels like to miss someone, anyone; him around me.We’ve…

Stories

Listen to the Spoken Word version of this poem *** I wanna live where the stories are!I don’t wanna live in a world without stories!I want to make people feel,I want to make people dream,I want them to smile, to chuckle,I want them to feel overwhelmed,Just as I feel after watching “The Lion King” *…

Why Me?

Listen to the Spoken Word version of this poem *** Why me?A question I ask myself often these days.I ponder, I wonder, I sit idle.I shed tears every now and then,Even though I know, all my tears are in vain.Why me?I’ve never done wrong to anyone,I’ve never wished anyone bad.Yes, I’ve had my moments where…

“My Father” – A Father’s Day Special

Within These Four Walls

People You Lose to Depression

Listen to the Spoken Word version of this poem *** People you lose to depression,No, not just the dead ones but,The ones who just changed over the course of time.You once saw them happy, smiling,Now their eyes are still and they feel like nothing.People you lose to depression,Are your own people.It’s your father or mother…

The Color of My Skin

“It’s so exotic”,“You look like Pocahontas”,“I love how tanned you are”,“Oh, your color is so sexy”,The color of my skin,It’s not for you to objectify, it’s a part of me.The color of my skin is who I am!This golden hue, the wavy black hair,These gloomy dark eyes, no, they’re not for share!No, you can’t touch…

X & Y

Listen to the Spoken Word version of this poem *** Clustered. They’re bundled in pairs. Shapeless, forming numerous layers, Of cognitive notions that are beyond my reach, Defiantly, the randomness of life and death, Whether we make it out alive or we die, We’re trying to untangle the X and Y. Wailing, amidst the dandelions,…

Mr. Dates

One of the things I miss during this lockdown, Apart from going to the gym and of course being able to walk into any Starbucks and order one Café Latte, Vanilla flavored & 2% milk, grande, And of course, doing my hair so that I can keep their desire locked into my locks, I also…
