The world has ended.
The blazing sun has become cold,
The smiling flower has frowned and
The wind has refused to blow.
What comforts this life could bring to a mind
for whom spring has ceased to be trended and
What comfort these luxuries of
The world could present to a person
For whom the world has ended.

You take away their power
to affect you any longer.
You heal from the damage
they could cause you.
Your heart comes to peace with yourself and you can freely breathe.

Our old bittersweet days
for it reminds me
We were never meant to be together,
Never meant to come so close
Only to separate and live forever in grief.

Israel v/s Palestine
I can't say with conviction
Who is right and who is wrong
But I do see burning streets, debris,
dead bodies on streets and the horrors of war on both sides.
No, none of you deserves any of what
you are going through.
Israel we see missiles being fired on you,
Gaza we hear your cries,
Palestine we too are devastated
to see your children die.
We can feel your fear of constantly
living under attack but
Can you sit for a moment
And see what you are doing is nothing
but a human against a human
Trying to build a palace on the dead bodies
of innocent lives.
Do you call this your paradise?
Can you forget what happened in the past
and do something to
Improve today's plight?

Is for you to walk only.
Some will try to assist you,
Some will block your space.
Some will try to stop you,
Some will push you forward.
Some will throw thorns to test you,
Some will throw petals to ease your pain.
Some will laugh at you
for your wrong choice
Some won't believe
you made it this far.
Some will try to burn you
by calling you a witch
Some will be in awe of your magic.
So choose your path wisely
You won't always be given a chance
To retreat your footsteps.

A Girl Without Her Mother
Maa, there's not a day when
I don't miss you.
Your touch on my face,
Your tight hug when I got frightened
in the middle of the night.
Your struggle to put me to sleep
by singing lullabies.
Your waking me up early in the morning,
Your feeding me with your hands,
Your combing my hair,
Your running after my school bus
To give my signed test notebook.
Your cooking my favourite kheer
When I won a medal in sports.
You left when I was too young to understand
what it would mean to live without your presence.
Everyone says I have to fill your place.
I have to take care of the house,
I have to be the mother to my brothers,
I need to comfort my family and wipe their tears.
But who do I tell I miss my mama and
I'm in excruciating grief.
I wonder if you also miss me
When the night breathes!

From childhood
I struggled
To love myself.
I was always told
I'm too sensitive,
Too loud,
Too dumb,
Too gentle,
Too ugly,
Too much of everything.
And now that I'm grown up
I wonder how to be less.
Less thoughtful,
Less giving,
Less affectionate,
Less gracious,
So less that no one can break me.
I lost so many people in life
Some due to my own negligence,
while some betrayed me.
And now I struggle in this vast
Measureless waters waiting
for someone to pull me out
And show that the storms
I have been fighting for so long
Were only meant to teach
How to sail in the sea .

A student's love for his teacher
I wish I could tell you
How beautiful you are in my eyes.
The way you care
The way you speak
The way you carry yourself
The way you clap when I win
And the way you cheer me up
when I feel defeated.
The way you enter the room and
Fill it with your positivity.
The way you start teaching
And your eyes get lit up
while explaining things.
The way you keep repeating
the lines just in case we missed it.
The way you scold when you feel
we aren't paying enough attention
our minds are deviating.
The way you let go many times
when we are being playful while reading.
The way you want us to succeed
And brim with joy on every little step
we take towards our journey.
Dear teacher,
Is there any way I can possibly explain
What all that means to me?

She decided to free herself
The day she felt neglected
But excused you defending,
"He has other things to do."
And cursed herself for not understanding.

She decided to free herself
When you were not there when
she needed you the most
But consoled her heart arguing,
"He is trying his best."

She decided to free herself
Several times when she felt unloved
But retraced her footsteps each time hoping
Someday you will change and reciprocate
the love she never claimed.

But finally, she decided to free herself
The day she realized her self worth
And freed herself from your bondage
Knowing her worth as a queen and not a mere object.
