Scales

One by one,
the scales of pretense

fall away

It exposes,
the love, care pain and hurt

With days,
these tender muscles beneath
will fade away

One day,
those scales
will not be needed

they never were.

RIP : May 6th

Memories & Pain
Or the happiness
don't fade gradually
People lied.

its an instant of thunder light
that takes it away
And then,
like clouds they creep in
We need thunderstorms
every moment
Do not hide in your basement
Let it go.

RIP : May 6th

One

I wish,
to wear the stars,
the bright ones
and dance with the curves
of trails and snakes
Or stand on the waters
and sleep with ocean and lakes
to embrace the mountains
in sweet intimate ways
and grow the trees
inside me as mothers
or hold the sands
Like my own brothers

I wish,
the stars, the lakes,
the trails and snakes
mountains, trees and sands
respond in their own little ways

And, me and nature
Become one.

Women Holding Her Light (Concept & Painted By Me, 2011)

तन से वस्त्र उतरते
मन पर चढ़े
जिस्म ताक लो,
मन पढ़ने का धैर्य कहाँ
बहुत परतें हैं

सोसाइटी प्रगतिवान है
