Read MoreDark is the night.
In the distance,
the dogs are barking,
probably fighting,
over a mate,
to mate,
so human.
I am sitting still,
staring at the street light,
flickering ghost-light,
as if a devil is opening
and closing its mouth
to quarrel,
"you aren't scared of me,
but lesser than me,
ghosts of my kind".
And, Across the street,
the black cat,
licking its claws,
as if she wants something of me,
I should probably pat her
till her claws clutch my veins
to rip them open,
but I am sitting still.
headlights swiftly approaching
towards me,
I would want them
to run over me,
not once,
not twice,
a hundred times,
and then tell me,
You just ran yourself over,
not once,
not twice,
a hundred times
But, here I am sitting still,
on the roof of my house,
and God knows
what I am imagining,
if I could help you visualise
the height and the edge from where
my feet are dangling,
you would probably think of
me as someone suicidal.
And some might know where are these verses coming from,
Like my mom,
who opens the gate sometimes,
and stunningly says,
I thought you were upstairs.

Speechless
It's the quiet ones that do their talking with their eyes that leave me speechless
And in this state I find a deeper grace from which to fall

ग़ज़ब तो , तब हो गई ।
जब हां के बाद , ना हो गई ।
लौट आने बाद , चले गए ।
खुद के पास कर , दूरियां बना गए ।
दिल में घर करने बाद , ख़ाली कर गए ।
ग़ज़ब तो , तब हो गई ।
जब हां के बाद , ना हो गई ।

Today
While walking home from work, I could feel a sense of accomplishment and good vibes surrounding me. I smelled Biryani being made in a nearby house. I was talking to myself, "You are made for more, Let's Rock it! " Today was just the begining many more to come.

Read MoreLullaby
Can you see the starry sky
Filled with billions of little
Lights , lit just for us tonight?
Do you feel the chill in the air—
So that you can hold me close
Hold me tight .
As the wind plays softly
With your hair I wonder.....
If I say the words I’ve been
Meaning to tonight, would you
Consider it a complete blunder.
The gentle swish and swoop
Acts like a LULLABY , makes me
Want to cuddle up to you....
I hope this is a start
To something brilliant
And something brand new —
We’ve only known each
Other a little while I know,
But I’d do anything just
For you to let me be
Your beau.
Contrary to the steady beat
Of your heart , my own
Is filled with anxiety and
Flutters every time I think
Of my vault into the unknown.
I hope you’re there to catch
Me as I leap onto the other side
Because no longer do
I feel the need to,
From you my feelings hide ....
Poured out onto a sheet
This is my LOVE LETTER to you
That talks of my life’s greatest desire
Filled with the scent of ROSES few.
I wonder why people akin
Love to a disease ....
Because if this is love every
Moment I’d like to seize
To tell you how much I adore,
Respect and admire you too
How much I like your little
Quirks, how much
I love you

Follow @bhuvviiwrites on @mirakeeappYou notice that life places many people
around you, all of them are looking for
something from you, bad or good,
now it is your decision to give them
something of you, but be careful if you
give too much, you may waste more than
time or words, sometimes time and words
go with feelings.

जिसको भी चाहा वो दूर हुआ हमसे
खुद से ही मिलकर रोया मै खुद से
बात उस बरसात की है
खंधे पे सर रखकर रोया था वो हमसे

Read MoreI SOLD MY SON.
I am the princess of roads and streets,
Wrapped in the velour of dirt, my personality greets,
I do not have a diamond tiara adding to my grace,
The only jewel I wear is my emarald eyes and smiling face.
The harshness of the passers by couldn't snatch my charm,
A bowl of hopes in one and nurturing starvation in another arm,
I swallow my thirst like a glass of old wine,
Waited all my life for a miraculous turning point of mine.
O! But so stupid was I, never knew, never ever realised,
Dreams aren't meant for the eyes, with poverty that are paralysed,
He used to pass daily through that lane in his car,
Dropped more than I desired in my bowl of scar.
He claimed that he loved me and his love was true,
He was the prince Godsend to pull me out of my days of blue,
Very soon I sat next to him in the car, crossing the same streets,
Not for begging, but enjoying his sweetness, lovely treats.
We completely forgot that we were still unmarried,
We lived our lives like a couple, his child I carried,
But destiny was a foe and remained until last,
It dugged out my misfortune and enliven my past.
He broke all promises and merged with the soil,
A major car accident was the reason for the spoil,
Months passed by and my labor hit me finally,
I became the mother of a son whose father silenced eternally.
The unborn I carried, didn't abort though I had the option,
As I didn't want to kill the sign of my love, resting peacefully,
Breast-fed my baby once before giving away for adoption,
To a barren couple who would give all the luxuries to my son, like a royal family.

Read MoreLaugh
A touch, a song, a smile, a laugh, a moment
Sometimes take me back to you somehow
It doesn’t feel unpleasant but like nostalgia
It’s like a dull ache in my bones now
It hurts to remember what I once felt for you
It’s pains me that I don’t recall you well anymore
No longer do I wish you would set out on a course
And someday sail towards my shore .
That savage wanting does not exist anymore
I don’t need you now like I need air
That need to be possessed by you has simpered
And I’ve come to accept you’ll never be there
Loving someone you cannot have is a pain
A tiny tear that slowly rips you apart
The boiling obsession simmers down to a bubble
Leaving you with a torn and broken heart

@writersnetwork @miraquillbare foot on the edge of the river,
gazing at the flowing water,
keeping my eyes on the green beauty,
i kept walking ahead without any destination.
i peeked at my reflection in water,
puffy eyes, dark circles, stained cheeks,
rubbing my eyes and cheeks,
to get rid of all the tears,
laughing at my saddist state.
the thundering of clouds reminded me,
of how even up above is laughing,
laughing at my pathetic state of mind,
laughing at me…
i always wished that the clouds be happy for me
but little did I know that
that others always laugh at my expenses…

Sick
You are my torment
In a place I'm meant to find contentment.
You build darkness
without making an announcement.
You shatter my hope with words birthing wounds
each time I think I can cope with your existence in my world without grievance.

मन मेरे
तुम्हारा ख्याल आते ही
खिल जाती हैं बाछें
जग जाता है एक समंदर
और उफनने लगती हैं लहरें
हवाऐं तुम्हारी एहसास भरती हैं
मैं लगता हूँ अटखेलियाँ करने
पंछियों की तरह आसमां में
अबोध सा उन्मुक्त विचरते
पता नही कब ऐसे में
समय रुक जाता है ठिठके
खुशबुओं की मलयानिल बहके
जज्बातों की महफिल में थिरकते
मगन मैं नाचता तेरी धुन पे
खिल जाते हो आसमां में मेरे
बन कल्पनाओं के मूर्त्त साये
समा लेती हो नक्षत्रों को इतने
भूल जाता हूँ मैं अस्तित्व अपने
हो जाता हूँ मैं लीन तुम में
चले जाने के बाद भी
नहीं जाते हो तुम यकीं से
सोया भी रहता हूँ अगर मैं
जगे रहते हो तुम लबों पे
सितारों की हँसी से झलके

Laugh
At the beginning, your laugh was the reason for my smile, because I thought they were because of us. But I couldn't be more wrong, and now your laugh tantalizes me as it will never be for me

बेवाकी
लिखता हूँ सहज भावनाऐं
कविता का तो नहीं पता
चलता हूँ सीधी राह पर
अपनी चाल का कुछ भी नहीं पता
मगन नाचने वालों को भला क्या पता
अब आंगन है टेढ़ा या सीधा
फब्तियाँ कसते नहीं थकते
तेरी आँखों में पता नहीं, है क्या अड़ा
भागती हरणियों को क्या पता
अपना इलाका कब पार गया
शिकारियों ने है कहाँ जाल बिछाया
एक अबोध को मालूम ही क्या
कब तक उसकी भी है साँसें बची
उसे भी है अब कहाँ पता
पर पता है मेरी नस्ल खत्म होने में
लगेगी देर, और क्या पता
बचे ना शायद तेरा ही ठिकाना
आओ मिल कर चन्द घड़ी दुआ कर लें
फैला लो अपने दामन, और
सोच का थोड़ा और दायरा
मानता हूँ गुनहगार हूँ सबका
पता है करता हूँ अनजाने गलतियाँ
जो कमियों का है भारी बस्ता
पर पता है जीने का सिला
ढूंढ लूंगा इक दिन अपना वास्ता
पत्तों पर ढुलमुल यह काया
पता नहीं कीचड़ है कितना कहाँ
पर यकीं है इक दिन खिलेगा
अपने मन का पावन कमल यहाँ।

You and I were made for each other
Not for this world
Maybe in another world,
Our stars would have aligned perfectly
We are nothing but star crossed lovers
Bound together in heart but separated by a Curse
It's in that Curse that our fate lies
I'm sorry,
But I've come to terms with the notion that ours is a forbidden love.

To believe you can spend the rest of life with them,
then to close your eyes and turn away,
explaining yourself,
why bother her,
go home and write poetry,
why bother the poet too?
