O' Mirror!

Image
Me: Mirror mirror on the wall Who's the happiest of them all? Mirror: Wait, aren't you supposed to ask who's the fairest? Me: No, I know I'm not the fairest, And I don't need anyone to tell me I'm less pretty than anyone, But Tell me who's the happiest So I can borrow some from them, And give it to my heart, And look at you face to face  Stare without getting heartbroken at my reflection  That looks like it's grieving for the smile  it has lost in the war, And every time I look at it,  I feel like I'm attending a funeral. Maybe it'll give it some strength  to lift up the curves even if it is just for the crucial times. Tell me, Tell me so I can turn the world upside down, To find it Even if I have no magic in me,  Facebook is no less than that, Tell me o' mirror, I need to know I'm tired of seeing this soulless eyes  That has been washed way too many times by tears  And has lost i...

Disguised hate

Image
I hate you, You heard it right, I actually hate you for all pain you hid under the hood, And cloaked it by your smile, And made it look like it doesn't even exists. And I hate myself For not being able to see through it, Even though I was known for being able to disect your feelings layer by layer. I was the best detective  Who used be able to read what's going on in your heart Just by the degree of curve on your lips. I hate you, For all the time you pushed me away With the fear to lose me in the heart, That has always been beating for me While it was beating you up with the guilt Eating you up like a maggots, Sucking life out of you like a parasite, And I hate myself for letting you push me away, While I blindfolded myself with anger, And shut my ears out of fear of not being able to take the truth. I hate you like how I hate sun that enrages me when it's at its hottest But still keeps me warm, Like how I hate moon for...

Known Strangers

Image
Dear stranger, It's been a while since you last called. I have been longing to hear your voice But it is not easy to call a stranger, right? You have to muster up all the courage And think about all the responses they might give And critically analyze if you're strong enough to digest it along with all the butterflies you still feel for them. You see, I was supposed to write about a random stranger but, my heart only drags me to your street. It's easier to write about when you know which way you're going, And my mind, body, and feet always turns to you all the time, Wish I could stop it but my reflexes are so familiar with your memories, It always ends up betraying me even when I tell them that's not the street I should be taking. Dear stranger, How are you? I hope you are doing well. I hope you get hurt by my poems less by the day, I know you still read them, I know you still wonder who makes me laugh these days like you did, Or maybe you pretend t...

तिम्रो परी छ कि छैन ?

Image
दिनरात तिम्रो बारेमा कविता लेख्ने म आज म आफ्नो बारे लेख्दैछु र भर्दैछु त्यसलाई चुम्बकले जसले तानोस् तिम्रो मुटुलाई जुन भन्छौ अहिले फलामको भएको छ। मेरो बारेमा थाहा नभएको त के छ र तिमीलाई? कुनै शब्दले भनिसकें, कुनै कवितामा भरेर दिइसकेँ, र जुन छुटेका थिए, त्यो तिमीले आँखामा हेरेर पढिसक्यौ। आफ्नो बखान कुन शब्दले गरुँ र? म भन्दा बढी त तिमी गर्थ्यौ। स्वर्गबाट तिम्रै लागि मात्र पठाएको परी, जसको एक मुस्कानले मन्त्र मुग्ध भएको थियौ, जसले प्रेमको क ख नबुझेकोलाई पूरा परिभाषा सिकायो जो तिम्रो अँध्यारोमा उज्यालो भर्थ्यो आदि इत्यादि। तर अहिले भन्छौ कि परिभाषा भुल्यौ रे, अनि साथै सबै स्मृति जसले तिमी र म लाई हामी बनाउँथ्यो अनि सोध्छौ त्यो आकाशकी परी कुन्नि कता झरी खोज्छु म वरिपरि, तर देख्दिन म कुन्नि कसरी। अनि म उत्तर दिन्छु, त्यो परी को जादुको छडी, त गएको छ आजकल उसलाई छोडी, अनि एसो पछाडि हेर्दा त गइसकेछ उसको पखेटा पनि उडी, त्यसैले होला सात समुन्द्र पारि तिमीलाई माया पठाउन सकेको छैन, अनि त जाँदैछ तिम्रो मन पनि टाढिई। तर अझै पनि आशा गर्छु, फर्किनेछौ यी शब...

My choice

Image
This poem is inspired by Deepika Padukone's video "My Choice"   directed by Homie Adajania. This poem represents voice of all the women in the world to the narrow minded people in our society.. My body, my mind, my choice, My choice is to wear the clothes I like, Even when your stare makes me uncomfortable in my own skin, Making me feel like any moment trouble can knock in, And other people will leave it unseen, But I'll stare you back, Like you're shit's stack, Instead of changing my choice, I'll fight back for what I like, And This is my choice. . My choice is to give words to my thoughts, Your threats makes me doubt my own voice But you wont succeed, If you'll try to supress it, I'll speak louder, Your threats doesn't scares me anymore, I'll scream till my throat gets sore, I'll get it heard anyway, I wont stay dumb anymore, I'll fight back for what is right, And This is my choice. . My choice is ...

Journey to Country of Dreams

This is dedicated to all the friends, brothers and sisters who are out of country for abroad studies.. D ragging legs that felt heavier than stone, taking steps that takes him away from the home, To a place, he once dreamed to be, To be somewhere he always wanted to be, But now dreams doesn't feels right, When It came to Leave the closeness of beloved ones behind, Struggling between heart and mind's fight, He makes his way towards the plane to catch his flight.. Holding heart heavier than his luggage, He turns back to hold everything in his eyes in one gaze, Trying not to let those water spill from his eyes, He bid his last goodbyes, When he was wishing for time to freeze, That was moment when plane left the ground with an ease, To the country of dreams, Where light of hope beams, As the plane took the pace, His heart begun to race, Because he was leaving a piece of it here, With bundle of feelings with no one to share.. Staring from the window, ...

Regret

If I tell you about my regrets That burns me like a cigarette Slowly turning me into ashes, Will you listen to me? Or will you also say "stop Let it flow out of you with teardrop." Like how everyone said "past is past, You need to move on fast, Everybody makes mistakes, But All you need to do is wake, Like it was just a bad dream Silencing the heart's scream, Start forgiving, Start with yourself." I want to, I want to do it so bad But my feelings are dense, Regrets so deep, In my heart it seep, Those immature words, Careless acts, I cannot forgive, I was too dumb to understand how people will percieve, And I'vent said sorry yet, And I guess I wont ever be able to, As some are no longer in my life, And most of them has already forgotten, But I wish I could tell, How sorry I'm, For making them wait. For the words I said, For the  scrunched nose I made, For the time I've not be there. I should have said sorry, Also...

In a place beneath dark sky

Beneath the dark black sky, I ask my questions why, To myself, maybe Or to the unseen forces, that's too afraid or too shy to show up.. Underneath the twinkling stars, I wish to grow up, Spiritually and mentally maybe, Into A person that noone can stop. I ask them for help, Let out my yelp, But they are too deaf to hear, I guess, Leaving me alone with my life to face.. Or I'm too dumb to understand maybe, Expecting with someone who didn't even exist, Sitting on the top of my house That feels higher than the Everest, Searching for a shoulder to rest, Wondering if my life is just a waste.. Somebody said I can, So I can maybe, Somebody trusted me, So I also should mayb, So I can be somewhere, In a place someone once believed I can be... #eleven11poetrychallenge #day3 #place #me

Self advertisement

Thoughts deeper than the ocean, Heart vast than the sky, Tongue sharper than the razor, Can make you both laugh and cry, Coz her mood swings faster than you breathe, can be that sweet that'll make your heart skip it's beat, But, beware!! Coz she Can also be a fire, that'll burn you down into ash with her anger's heat.. Her heart, her pride, Her dreams make her thrive, Her dedication, priceless, Her Love cannot be bribed, Coz she can forgive your mistakes, Can give as long as one takes, Can laugh when she's sad, And can still pray for your good even when she's mad.. #eleven11poetrychallenge #day2

A Poem for someone I love

For, the foods you make, the pains you take, the way you cover up my mistake, Mom, I'm sorry, i've never been humble.. For, all the love you gave, all the money you saved, all the good things you said, Dad i'm sorry I never appreciated.. For, all the harsh words, all the good words i left unheard, all the time I acted like an absurd, I'm sorry, I've been a terrible daughter.. So, now I promise to make your mouth ache with laughs not your heart with words, fill the your eyes with happy tear, not the sad tear, i want to be the reason you smile everyday, and be your best daughter.. #Eleven11PoetryChallenge #day1
