On my demise

On the eve of my demise,
I woke up in an I don’t understand world.
So tranquil as it’s words frozen
Pictures too bright for my vision
Path so fragile as no-one ever walked over
Couldn’t feel any beats or breath intakes
My thoughts don’t feel mine anymore,
Somewhere in this untold crowd
I think I see things, but you nowhere.

On the day of my demise,
strolling over my regrets and relish
found a piece of paper with a single syntax
in a language I can never decipher
resembling the imposters of being alive
and echoes from an unfinished poem
written by this coward poet,
who don’t know that letting go is better,
better than clinging to something and hurting oneself.

On the very next day of my demise,
I was found guilty, for not being there
to wipe my mom’s eyes,
and every tears shedded for my reminiscence.
Unable to undo any memory I ever created in you
On all tomorrows after my demise
I’m so sorry for being alive,
alive somewhere in you.

Letter to girlfriend's mother(s)

Dear girlfriend's mother(s), It's an illegitimate adjective, I know So what's legit and how'd you rate? Don't tell me it's to be blind, deaf and dumb your whole life Death makes more sense than this anonymity. Don't tell me it's threatening and obeying To uphold family integrity by sacrificing identity. Don't tell me it's obvious to remain incognito I won't change pronouns of my love poem. What's between us may not entertain you Or your trusted psychiatrist who found 'cure' for us Who disguised truth over cultural ethics. It wasn't love at first sight and healed later Or a cute valentine's day proposal We didn't fall in love we grew up to it. Holding hands without skipping a heartbeat Is a luxury we've been longing for In a dream when we kissed, she refused to close eyes She was afraid of 'people hunting people'. When you requested us to stop 'everything' I didn't know how to prove the authentic...

from Story to Poem

Once there lived a 'story' As the authors said it was 'beautiful'. Every letter shut by guards of glory Every twist and turn coiled with fetish Still security breached with a loud hush. A pervert nib stabbed the young tale Like injecting chemical on a Gini pig  The fear went straight through. Bloody one neither spoke nor died Thought it might be a cynic's errand. Never dared to complain the authors It doesn't matter though. It could do only one thing Turning itself to something stronger to strive Like the million other times, 'story' grew to 'poem'. It's easier to live without fitting in Moral or vicious who cares. Everyone thinks they hunt down the gist Everything peripheral concealed to showcase. Hence the cuteness frowned Some called it coward. Others praised the courage They know wounded ironies Conceive brave rhymes. Picture source: Google

The girl who hated earrings

The girl who hated earrings lives in my room No-one knows, just us She roams around my cupboard and scans everything Throws away those cute studs grandmother bought me. She lies in my couch and interrogates "Why does your ear need rings? She had an engagement? At 28th day you were born? What if she likes to be single? Anyone asked for permission? Noway - just default detachment"  She says it's embarrassing Punching ears just to look 'good' Isn't that awkward? As a kid when they punch, it hurts less When you get older, pain doubles Because it's not just about ears! But when I looked her closer Close enough to pickup that unibrow and blackheads I found patches of a dead earring in her lobe When I touched it, blood dripped out.
