Burial of his Dead Heart
It is not ready to strive
Pounding hearts witness brutality live
Someone they know is left bleeding
Hungry dogs got a nice feeding
The owner of the heart
Knew from the start
But he got stuck in the whirlpool
And look what is left
Shreds of love and care
Strewn here and there
A clear sign of a savage massacre
Now it is time for the holy burial
The priest has come for the ceremony
He raised his hand to declare his supremacy
“We have gathered for the burial of his dead heart”
The crowd nodded
Bereft of hope they have accepted the unaccepted
“Now I shall read some false beliefs from the book of love quotes” he grins
“I want a pair of slaughtered dove to mark the end of what they called love” he ordered
The grand ceremony concluded
Now hatred shall prevail
Let it consume your hearts
Let it blacken it
Let it feel the hatred
Love doesn’t live here anymore
As it rests six feet under.

Moonlight, Stars and You
she admires the beauty of that white ball
up in the sky
like a little child
like a little angel
myriad gleaming things surround the white ball
as if they are displaying a beautiful show for you
merrily you count them and childishly ask
if you can have two of them
I look at them and tell them to come to you
they come down and she gives them lovely names
one is joy and other is love
delightful they rest on her palms
O the moonlight, stars and her.

Wisdom Haiku June 18, 2012
Unrequited Love
The world halts and vanishes for him
As you arrive
Slow motion
In fact no commotion
The lady in blue
Behind you
Vanishes in an instant
Confirming the aforementioned statement
He adores you
You sit there with no clue
They say unrequited love is the purest
But fail to complete that it won’t ever manifest
Your heart is killed and brought back to life
A million times, each and every day
He is hoping against hope
His heart hanging from the rope
What he doesn’t want to hear is ‘Nope’
I met him yesterday
Busy making her sculptor with clay
And tells me, “now she is here to stay”
My core aches to see him
Giving up on someone who might adore him
Love is a two way process
I tell him to get out of this mess
He is busy crafting her sculptor
Unaware that his core has a little rupture
As blood of his emotions continue to roll down
She is there
Unaware
I wonder how to end this
On a happy note
With two lovers entwining fingers
Or on a deplorable one
with a bleeding heart and dead hope.

Oil, salt and vegetables
Ordinary day
(my granny used to love making pickles for us, this is for her)
Ordinary day
She comes, fine ballerinas
Summer becomes spring.
(Summer in Delhi is unbearable, uncomfortably hot but when she comes my summer becomes spring. This is for the most beautiful girl I know.)

Untitled
Her halcyon face brings a smile on my face,
Melancholy, no! not even a trace.
This one is untitled
As I wonder what to name it, maybe ‘Exulted’,
Harking back to the initial thought
Damn! I always forget, mumma says, “tie a knot”.
You will remember what you thought
I just grabbed it, it just got caught
Cries my thought
Halcyon face brimming with joy
I am going weak at the knees, O boy.
Her brown eyes snatches life away
I look into them
So peaceful, so serene
O eyes, you are mean
It makes me dream
Like Benson’s solo absolutely smooth and clean
But wait, I have peeped into them
I can see my life ebbing away
Who is to blame? Are you going to take the claim?
Take it,
Now I don’t care
I wish to stare as the drummer hits the snare
You stand there and enjoy the finger popping tune
Someone asks the name of the song
We call it ‘Sand Dune’.
Harking back yet again to the initial thought
I wonder why I get lost
Someday it is going to cost
O you when will I reveal?
That my heart is steal
Should be stolen but who cares
Until it is rhyming the Nash way
The forgotten thought I missed you again
My girl, when will I reveal
The thoughts and what I feel
They say, “One day my friend, one day.”
This one’s silly because everything’s blur
As you read you might find her
Hidden in the words
Chirping like tiny birds.
