A silver filigree carved with finesse
I have seen the transformation of a girl,
From a tenacious teenager to a pretty lady,
While making me her secret keeper,
I saw her transform from a friend to a lover,
Showering me with love and compassion,
I saw her turning foe, with bitterness
Showering me with hurtful words
When it came to choosing love or family,
She feared that her family will disown her,
She chose to leave me behind forever!

Library of souls,
A place to embrace the silence of the afterlife,
To let go of the burden from the past life,
Where one could communicate with mere presence,
Where you can find the long lost buddies,
And those bete noires,
Share all the pain from the previous life
and the dearest memories,
And dream together about new lives!

She's listening to the melancholy
Of her beloved's sweet mutterings.
He felt he found a tender soulmate.
My nightful behaviours changed,
As depression twisted my mind,
Sleep is beyond my control,
I surrendered myself to medicines,
Instead of listening to contorted lullabies,
I couldn't watch late-night football,
Nor sunrise,
I found my relief in poetry!

Their romance echoes in the mist,
They exchange glances,
While walking in the park,
They freed their smiles,
They shared their hearts,
Silently over the months,
Without uttering a word,
He follow her upto her street
To get a special smile for the day
They wait for the morning to meet
again, And engage in their silence
He used fingers to express how pretty
she was, On days when she looked
traditional, They found ways to tell
if they won't come next day,
He rode his scooter in front of her
college, She showed him an angry face
He told sorry with hands on his ears
Next day, he plucked the flowers
she touched, And left a letter for her
She took the letter from the grass
He had confessed his love for her
Her eyes sparkled with joy and
he was over the moon, She waited
for him at the coconut stall,
She gave him her landline number,
Told him to call when she's alone,
The start of their love journey
Beyond the boundaries of the park!

Dark night taunts with silence,
Shadows are waiting to emerge,
While the moon played
hide and seek with clouds,
While all found solace in sleep,
The lone guard of the night remained awake,
With brimming eyes,
Hooting with all fury,
To break the silence and haunt the fearful

Determined to break free
Away from the tangles of medicines
Under which I remain stress-free
I am in a battle with my mind,
It never stops thinking,
I took the help of psychiatric medicines,
To control my mind and to get sleep,
Now I feel that I am caged,
I am trying to find pathways,
To get rid of medicines,
Depression is a not so easy battle to conquer

A window of hope
Closed with barbed wires
At the border of Belarus and Poland
Thousands of refugees
Caught in between the politics of Europe
While they chose a hard journey
To reach this far
Away from the miseries in their homelands
They dream about a better life in Europe
They're now stuck in the forest in Belarus
Waiting for an opportunity to cross the border
Even as the armed men trying to close all openings
On the Polish side
Some are lucky as they crossed the border
But their future is still uncertain
They could be deported back to their countries
As the winter embraced the landscape
People are desperate to cross the border
While surviving with whatever given by NGOs
The burning of woods remain the only source of heat
People lie close to each other with blankets
To beat the cold while awaiting their opportunity
To cross the border
