Adulting ke side effects

Samajhdaari ke nashe mein kuch aise pade hum,

Ki pyaar peeche choot gaya.

Utarna toh thaa 'crazy wild love' junction par,

Pahuch gaye 'maturity' terminus par....

The disguised pain

The stress lines on my forehead, 

Hid well with that compact

The dark eyes, from that endless worry, 

Hid well with the concealer

The weight that I carry on my chest, 

Undeciphered, unwanted, unexplained

The myriad thoughts in my mind, 

Random, negative, eclectic

That curvy strained smile,

Someone please unfold, unfurl, the pain behind it all

Rid me of this overthinking, this constant turbulence in my head

I wish to be mended, 

Because something's not right

It pains, pains in so many places, 

That I can't really pin point. 

Find it, Oh please find it, 

Relieve me of all this pain. 

All I want is to be heard 

Unjudged, unblamed, unprejudiced

I wish to love, and be loved in return,

Sans all the worries brewing vehemently in my brain

I wish to go back in time, 

When I was more of myself, and not this forlorn

Latent Love

She was like a feather to him....

He always blew her off, the gravity of their love brought her back to him....

She: Why do you always blow me off, away from you?

He: You are my feather sweetheart.
 I may blow you off, but always up       towards the sky.....So that you always find a way back to me
Never would I ever blow you off in any other direction

I may not express my love for you, but I'll always want you to come back to me

You are my feather, you see!

Love over Ambition : Voice of an educated homemaker

Dur aasman mein udd jaane ka jazba toh tha,
Par mitti ki sondhi khushboo qurban karne ki himmat na thi;
Log karte rahe kabiliyat pe shak,
Par dharti ke moh ke saamne har tark dhundhla sa tha;
