Go, if  you must 

But u will not be challenged so much

That u wish to blow the walls away 

Shriek your heartful and

Forget to just say

Wish I had not let you go !!!

Go, if u must, go 

Don’t ever think
Your wheels and my steps
Are ever out of sync
I m learning to walk slowly
To catch up with you
Who is so ahead
In the world of compassion
And congruence

I m learning
Give me a chance
No matter where I am
Breaths weave a quilt
To keep you warm
In the winters of life
I m learning

When tears don’t flow 

The roots wither away 

The waves swallow 

All the froth, fainted fishes and their future

Tsunami will not hurt anymore 

Let the roots wither away 

If it’s time that we measure ;

Then who measures the shadows 

Which tell us, what is there to see 

Let us just pause 

And, be!

#poem

Hazy choices 

Dilemma are deep 

Middle ground is eroded 

Will you show your fortitude?

#poem

Don’t unburden too much 

Lest my dreams fly like dried leaves 

Get scattered beyond my reach 

Let me stay buried 

Under the debris of promises 

I could not keep 

#poem 

Among the dark clouds 

You are the ray of hope

When everybody keeps quiet 

You might be the voice 

That will reverberate in the ears 

Of those had not heard these voices 

For long 

Will you stand up 

For those, denied 

Agency all this while 

It’s your call 

Only yours

 #poem

Paradoxical  swings

Mean a little

If navigating through 

Hazy treks is a burden 

We started together 

Four decades ago 

With just a promise 

To not be one predictable 

Thank you dear, enigmatic swirl 

Still survives despite shaking hands 

#poem

A wave gone astray 

But not yet lost to the time;

Will you lend an anchor to the boat 

Or latch it to the wave
