Don’t strive
To write
Poetry.
It will
Never
Come to you.

Instead
Give it
Some
Space
And
Time.

It will
Trickle
In you
Like a
Drop of
Water
And
Soak you
Like the
Monsoon
Rain.

Feel

That sense of
Completeness
I feel with you.

In separation,
I feel like a
Body
Without a
Heart
That has
Gone off
With you.

Look Forward

You look forward
To my poems,
Don’t you?!

I look forward
To you
Reading them,
I do :)

How does it Matter ?

I may die
Today
Tomorrow
Or
Day after.

How does it
Matter?

As long as
My poetry
Is with you,
You may
Read me,
Today,
Tomorrow
Or
Day after :)

Have

When you have
Too much to have
You can’t choose
What you want to
Have ;)

(Poem themed on Buffet)

Poetry

Poetry,
You come to me
Every night
As if to wish me
“Good Night”
The night
You don’t
Come to me
Something
Doesn’t
Feel right!
