Wings

Of four walls and a pin drop

judgmental eyes with a verdict, awaited

This was only one road out

as if the world is on my shoulders

in the verge of a burst

destruction

I grew a pair of wings

He said,

it is for me to fly


If you were to be in my shoes,

I wonder...

Orderly Fashioned

We met and I really liked you

- just something that I'd never come across

Like spring water in winter

Like rose petals found hiding under the comforter


I've learnt to like you so fast

A fall without the sharp pain

Its something about your smile,

how you speak and how you react,

I guess...

we've talked about it,

even though you might not recall -


And then we had to call a break

I lost you out of the sudden

I was kept aside, I wondered...


When I look back,

I've never forgotten why -


Even after months,

when I see you

donned in your handsome green blazer, paired with your green low cut boots

or in your stone washed top on a clear day


It feels like I've never ever learnt to like someone based on how they express themselves in such manner

Guess I shall have that indulged silently

After I kissed you goodbye

I got anxious of your intermittence of mixology

I liked you again in your shorts

I even liked you again when you smiled - whole heartedly


Falling into somebody should be free

without constrains

without expectations, patterns, systems, order or chronology

this is how I fall for you



Fashioned as such

and such is how I like you so

Intoxicated

Beer

traced on the layer of the humid breath track

the alimentary canal

as sun rise


I tried so hard to recall

after all the trouble

what I care for

and why


If you were to protect me

you and I could have understood what is best for all

but you didn't

you didn't want to make friends in this cruel, cruel world

- that's why I said I have trust issues


So much for being rewarded
