calm

at the evening time
at the time which doesn’t carry with itself
the worry of return
is when it’s calm

the starlit sky, deep with all the particles in it
seeming flat, but deep
lit by the lone shimmer one
is calm

the sleep
that descends to take you to the other side
which your body has no clue of
is calm

the baby that sleeps
with the dreams it can’t make any sense of
is calm

...

तेरा रंग निरंग

...

We all just want to meet somewhere else but not here

...

Allow me to float away

I’ll be back soon

I’m going where one of my foot lay

begging me to step on the other side

showing me promises of flight

Unlike what the bird has

a flight not in this space

a flight unknown, without wings

I’ll be back soon

don’t wait for me

I’ll be

That what is not

Running away from my shadows

Running into myself

every now and then

The light is blinding

and so is the dark

Everything is silent

and yet the noise deafens

Mirrors and mirrors everywhere

and yet not a mirror to see

Only water

it flows away

Moves away silently

untouched by my presence

I can feel the cold

I can feel the hot

But I cannot feel that what is not
