The house

hey mots,

going to malad has left me with a sense of loneliness , yet again.
Its a place for us together. Just one of us isnt enough for that house...

It is screaming for you in its deafening silences. In its unruffled sheets. In its dry bathrooms. In its pigeon infested balconies. In its picture adorned walls.

Come back soon babe

"Doubt" - He Said

you never ask-
if the sun would rise strong and loud
but the gloominess when its covered by cloud
you never question -
ebbing of the tide
but the rock which can kill its pride
you never doubt-
the diamond's shine
but the shining diamond which is not enough prime
and i certainly never doubted your ability to rhyme


but my ability to keep you mine..

"Doubt" She said

Please dont ask me if I am sure,

Did you ever ask if the sun would rise

Did you ever question ebbing of the tide

Did you doubt the diamond's shine or even my ability to rhyme?

Hell.. you never doubted a traffic jam,

or cramming up two days before the exam

or babies being taken out in the pram.

Then why the apprehension, this rejection....

Do remember, if you crack.. I will crumble

Love always,anku

Hmmm

Can God be this kind..?
Can a kiss be this sweet?
Can a touch be this sensual..?
Can love be so tender..?
Can concern be this sincere..?
Can a bond be this strong..?
Can talking be this addictive?
Can survival be so dependent?
Can someone be this sexy..?
Can anyone be this lucky..?
Can someone be incomparable..?
 
Can a single date on the calendar be this magical..?
 
Happy Birthday beba.

You smell yummy honey..

Fresh ground coffee
Page no 151 of a book just bought
Fresh made pudina chutney
Orange peels
An old book with a pressed rose
Rain on parched earth
the fireplace on christmas eve
mehandi on my hands
chandan face pack
popping pop corn
Just want an excuse.. any excuse -- to think about you :)

Firefly

Atop the himalayas..

Upon a hill
Overlooking a valley
Stars smiling down on us.

You , me with fireflies for company...

We make oh-so-sweet love
like never before, but for ever after
unleashing ourselves like doves
leaving our bodies behind
We fly away with fireflies for company..

Poetry??

A Balcony overlooking the creek..
A lazy autumn Afternoon..
A Ghazal playing on the computer..
A glass of red Wine..
A peaceful mix of anxiety and calm..
Some Hopes , Some Dreams..Too many fantasies..

Many iffs.. many buts..A stolen Kiss , a tight Hug..
Sleepy Drunk Dancing..
Her head on his Shoulder..
Shedding silent tears --
to mourn the End..
Or Rejoice in the beginning......
