A Bright Future?

When will I improve myself? Tomorrow
When will I chase my dreams? Tomorrow
When will I be happy? Tomorrow

Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow.
Everything in life is suspended until that fateful day
It’s how my life is going
It’s how things are moving
It’s what I thought was right
But it’s not
It most definitely is the wrong approach because

My therapist, my astrologer and even my dog tell me that things are not going to get better for at least another ten years

Real Love

There is just one person
In my head all day
One person I think about
All the time
The person who enters my mind
In the warm mornings
And stays until it is
The dark of nights

Yes, it’s me, me and only me. There is nobody I think about except me, myself and I. Call me a narcissist. A psycopath. Or any other word your vocabulary permits. I don’t care.

Be Yourself?

They told me to
Be myself and show
The world the real
Side of me
They told me I
Need not be afraid
Of owning who I
Am and what I feel
They told me to
Not succumb to
Societal pressures

Then why is everyone avoiding me now when I am being my arrogant, snobbish, mean and smelly self?

Love is etched

About every tiny little detail

not-poetry #16

In English we say:
I miss you from the bottom of my heart.

In insta-poetry we say:
I miss you
From the
Bottom of
My heart

Late-Night Thoughts #82

My heart woke me up
In the dead of the night
Crying for help


As I was about to ask
What I can do to make
Things better for him, the

brain intervened and said, “Switch off the damned phone and go — the hell — to sleep.”

Is Love Blind?

When people say that
Love is blind
I find the statement errant
You can see that it is
Simply not true
On further assessment

Blind is actually a person with severe visual impairment

Real Art

In a room full of art
In a museum full of artefacts
I’d have my eyes on you
And only you

Because you’d be either walking around with your fingers in your nose or stumbling over and breaking something priceless or both

Eat Together

In a schedule packed
With chaos and rush
Sharing a meal with you
Is perhaps the most
Peaceful part of my day

Especially when you are hooked to your phone and I am to mine

Self-Illuminating Love – II

Beautiful, radiant and bright
You glow, golden and white
Twinkling like the stars in sight
You love with a lustrous might

Surrounded by your constant light
It’s getting hard to sleep at night
