I always like to ask people how they would describe a colour to a blind person.

“Crimson is being in love, being passionate, being intense.”

my madagascar- poem
“je ne parle pas français,”
i can hear the sea laughing at me but the sand
agreeing with me because
some experiences transcend words.
some feelings elude the need for language.
While Falling For- poem
It’s a spark, a tiny, kindling flame,
A humble comfort, a meek butterfly
But a butterfly nonetheless.

As everyone waits in anticipation for the ‘ball to drop’, the world comes to a standstill at midnight. We all halt for a few seconds. It’s one of the more meaningful yet fickle moments in life, a sign that time moves with a mind of its own. A sign that we’ve endured 12 months again …
I Met You in a Dream- poem
I met you in a dream.
I met you in full HD, in the highest resolution, in the most brilliance.

And maybe I imagined you fading slowly.
Certain Kind of Sadness- poem
There is a certain kind of sadness that resides in
The depths of the world.
The kind that stays hidden till sought,
Concealed in smiles and laughter;
The kind that ventures out in silences and boredom,
Like a hand that reaches out to pat you
But instead grabs you to the deep abyss
