Mishmash of Love

Love
walked us through
the mishmash
of unexpressed
emotions

Sometimes,
you encountered the maze
yet, at times
I ran into
a thick wall.

Hopeless souls
we two-

We carried on!

Wine-Kissed

Summer wine
swirled languidly
around her tongue.
He watched her eyes
turning into
stormy twilight

Outside
the dusk had left.
The peach smeared
across the sky
melded sensually
with silvery greys
 
His gaze but, lingered
over the hint of wine
sitting pretty
on her lips

Enchanted Dreams

The sun rays
sneak in
through the white lace curtains
and, kiss my
still sleepy eyes

I wake up
from a dream-
of you and me
and fields of
buttercups
and tulips;
Of roads
flanked by
lush green stretches
of fields.

I open my eyes but,
to sterile white walls
the hum of air conditioner
and the monotony
of life

All This While

Your promises
 Neither broken,
Nor met;
Suspended,
Trapped in a moment.
Frozen

My heart tells a story
To my soul each evening
Some memories re-live
By no will of mine
I am defeated by my own
Through the tests of time
I had been stalling
All this while
All this while!
