all that loss
does not go away in a jiffy
tears cannot wipe them
the wounds stay fresh
below a little scratch
the rawness slows
the raging fires
in the heart…
hold on to you
stay afloat
this shall also pass

Blunt
A common fear
binding the unlikely,
in an invisible togetherness
the edge of the hatred
is getting blunt,
a sapling of love is
rearing its softness
in the eyes of the wise
while the fools are aghast
staring at the blunt weapon
in their hands.
Many went ahead
Walk before the tiredness
pulls you into a lull
feel before you can’t anymore
love before the dreams shatter
don’t let go of it
it’s your life.
Stay calm
no matter how much
torment the storm is causing.
Stay assured
since you feel that
this shall also pass.
Stay strong
never know where or when
the life takes the turn.
Many went ahead
many will follow
nothing new, nothing more or less.
Don’t hide
The mystery of existence
engages and discards
in the whirlwind of its activities
we are tossed around
don’t be afraid
put your ears to the ground
obey what they tell you
in whispered monologues
you are not the only one
fighting the tears
in the nook of your arm
Loss
A huge shadow of grief
on the horizon of loss
envelops the pain
of collective deprivation
hearts crushed
bodies wounded
words meaningless
yet potent like poison
better unspoken and unread
