A LADY IN INCOGNITO...

 

A Lady in Incognito…


I’ve been feeling something new,
Something near, something dear,
Something off the monotony
Something very peculiar.

Is it something fresh and new?
Or a ghost I’ve seen before?
My soul has wept for many nights,
Washed again upon the shore.

I’ve been sensing something odd,
Strangely present, oddly known,
Feeling like an infant yet
still feeling fully grown.

Now I found the crux of it
A soul, with hunger famishing,
A lady in incognito,
A lady quite ravishing.

Something gets my gut tickling,
With Oxytocin, I gleam,
waiting for that Cupid’s bow
To shoot a killer beam…

Behind those tipsy, silky drapes,
Lie two dense drops in milk,
Are they coffee? Hazel? Vanilla?
A mystery in the strands of silk. 

But I ask something different,
Behind that flirty smirk,
Behind your eyes, of hue unknown,
What emotions do lurk?

Beneath the halo of your skin,
Inside that practiced glow,
I seek the soul that’s trapped beneath
The self you don’t show.

Astronomy of Us

No one warned me that falling for someone could feel like accidentally opening an astronomy textbook. Suddenly everything in the sky began reminding me of her—blue moons, quasars, faculae, even weird celestial jargon I didn’t know existed two months ago. So I wrote a poem that wandered through the universe just to explain one feeling: How impossibly, ridiculously cosmic she makes my heart behave. I’ve always believed the universe speaks in patterns—gravity, tides, orbits, pull.  And for the first time in my life, I felt that same cosmic pull in a person. S o I tried to capture that sensation, the astronomy of “us,” in a poem where every stanza mirrors the way she shifts my axis, pulls my tides, and rearranges my constellations. This isn’t just poetry. It’s the physics of being in love. Astronomy of Us 🌌 So peculiar is the Astronomy of us They think it's the same, but is anomolous. Like this pull between us that Feels lawful, ruly and also treasonous. Your beauty of a Blue moon ...

Poetic Water- 02

Image
           In the long path of human history, we have witnessed and learnt about the very humble beginnings, to the unique urge of humans to innovate, leading to progress and evolution. On the shining and proud pavement of the timeline, there lie some pits. Pits which show humans as the worse for the planet. In those pits, lie pests, who were once known to be lethal. Dirt, the filth of the bad time. And lies some water, water of records, articles, books, literature; Poetic Water ...        This water reflects the stories of the time of these pits. Some pits, WW1 and 2, Jalianwallah Bagh Massacre, Spanish Flu, The Great Depression etc, have a great amount water in them. The literature describing these periods are infinite! In the swamp of the pit of HOLOCAUST , I would like to add another drop...      My poem, The Black Smoke, shares true events and instances molded into a story. The story of an innocent, kind, yo...

A Special Record

There are moments in life when affection grows so quietly, so steadily, that one day you realise it has become an entire universe of its own. This poem was born from that universe from a love that feels ancient, ocean-deep, and divinely placed. It is a confession, a devotion, and a promise whispered between heartbeats. And a message to my beloved... Lovie, Every time I try to explain what you mean to me, words fall short. So I wrote them differently; slower, deeper, with a bit of my soul stitched into each line. This poem is my way of telling you everything I feel but struggle to say out loud. Maybe one day, some very blessed will bestow upon me the right words to express my love to you. Till then, this is all I can do... My Eternity Oh how do I tell you, dear? How much do I adore you? This degree of fondness I ever Had for none afore you. Like Poseidon is to the waters He loves it not for the striking blue But for the jeweled ocean floors When newborn caustic lights break through. Oh...
