Winter Love

She stepped into her small kitchen, which seemed otherworldly in the early winter hours. Sunlight pooled in through the window, its slant rays illuminating the dust particles that waltzed in the air. The refrigerator hummed in the quiet and the birds sang their hearts as the sun warmed their bodies. Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Black

They say life goes on

People mourn, people forget

But that’s not for everyone, is it?

For some, it is too much to bear



Like her parents

Who lost their only child

All this time, she was their everything

But now, she’s gone, leaving them with nothing

 

Like her Continue Reading

Spring Love

Spring, the meat between your McDonald’s burger, the conversation after a fight, the jam in jim-jams, the glances between painful sobs laced with the slightest giggles over the absurdity of it all, the season between winter and summer. 

 

Spring follows cold, harsh winter. When you’re left alone, all you Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Blue

Love for me will always be blue,
Tinged with sadness,
It’s a bittersweet hue.

Blue for the sky that Icarus fell through,
Trying to soar for freedom,
Too close to the Sun he flew.

Blue for the loss Daedalus felt,
When he beheld his boy,
Suffering the curse he was … Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Autumn

Weary of summers past and wary of the winter to come – Autumn is a gaunt, worn veteran, hunched over on public benches. He sits with pursed lips, silently mouthing the ending of every story that begins now. As the harsh, dry wind claws the leaves off the trees, the … Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Lilac

Every evening, I look at the sky

Wait for the colours to change

To what reminds me of the years gone by,

You, me, and the lavender haze.

 

The sky is pink

The breeze cool

Even on a cold winter night

Or scorching mid-summer June.

 

I’d hate for … Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Pink

You carved little hearts out of the cement,

and I laid down the foundation of the road.

We paved the path together, and now you repent

for creating with me, your house and my humble abode.

 

Our hearts, which were once whole, are now empty with agony,

I forwent … Continue Reading

Seasons Of Love – Monsoon

Mi amor, come as abundant as rain,

Pervade my senses, render me restless,

Hold me in your spell. Do you see me swell

Akin to columns of wood, whose fortune you tell?

Beckon me from the shade, whence you dwell –

Illuminate every creature under your spell.

 

There’s no … Continue Reading

Colours of Love: Red

I arrive in her cheeks,

his hands in those hair,

that kajra hanging like it’s always belonged there

the arms hugging from behind, the lips on that neck.

There’s snow outside yet warmth in that home felt infinite

Dancing, yet again, to that flop song

With that twinkle unexplained, those … Continue Reading
