Through your telescope, my love.




In June, look West my love
Look as they find each other
Venus and Jupiter

In June, look south my love 
As we drift apart
further away
From each other

Today is the end of the month
My love
Tonight they shall kiss each other
Venus and Jupiter

Tonight we shall lie in our beds 
And not think of each other 
Fated to never speak
Fated to never meet
Today is the end of our season 
My love

Tonight the stars will celebrate 
The slow walk to a fleeting embrace 
As they put their arms around each other
Venus and Jupiter

And in the blink of an eye
They will be on their way
Putting a respectable distance 
Between each other
Venus and Jupiter

I, 
I will stare at the sky
For a few nights to come 
I will bury your name
In some constellation

You and I 
We are not like Venus and Jupiter 
In the month of June my love
We are a sad sad story 
Without a fleeting embrace 
Without a month 
Without a night 
Without a promise 
Without a romance
Without a heartbreak 
Without ever knowing 
Each other

The need for mundane love

There is a street, a cobbled one
Where light falls on your face
And we stand next to each other
Sharing a cigarette

There is a pool, dark and deep
Where you dive in
And we swim by each other
Without touching

There is a restaurant, with a special corner
Where we always sit
And I make boats of tissues
While you read

There is shade on our bedside
That keeps saying yellow
While I drift off
To the sound of your  breath
Everyday

I want to feel done
I want to feel numb
Not even guilt
For walking out on you

I want to love you
So mundane and regularly
I want to us to be so basic
A cliché, a boring story

I want to sit across a table
And not even realise
That we don't talk anymore

I want to sleep next to you
For years and years
And not be touched
Or touch you

I want you like a habit
I need you like a rotting  disease
So that I can
Break up
And move on

But for all this
I need to meet you
I need to like you
I need to love you
I need to adore you
I need to need you

Taareekh (history)

Seedhe  mein zakhm hain
Aur ulte mein veeraney
Judi hain hatheliyan ye abhi
Tootenge lekin ek din ye yaraney

Rooh ki banjar gehraiyon se aati hai awaz
Suno ghaur se ye cheekh
Sannate mein lipti hui

Mere dil ki zameen pe chorh gaye badshah kayi
Toote hue khandar
Girti hui deewarein

To love or to lust...

On a day like this
When the heart is conflicted
To love
Or to lust
As cold breeze blows
And the clouds gather
The rain drops weighing down the sky
And you wait for that moment
When the sky will open
Like his mouth
And touch his tongue to yours
When drizzle will turn to sheets
And then to cats and dogs
For the harder it hits the ground
The closer you come to climax
Your skin soaking
And vision blurred
Or you may just choose to sit
Under the shade
As the sky opens
Like a memory
And just in a bit
You can't hear, you can't see
Anything else but that feeling
That feeling that you are all alone
And there is someone, somewhere
With a strong cup of tea
Who stares in to nothing
And feels the same
Though your heart wants to love
But Your mind lusts
And then you imagine
A day
When the sky opens
Like a flower
And high on love
You lust
As lines of water drill in to your skin
You are in your own love lust frenzy
Till then
On a day like this
The heart is conflicted.

Hula Hoop

Spread me out in the rain
Knead my back
Let me feel your weight

With the flat of your hand
Tap me lightly
Unroll my legs
And don't stop
Till I am spread out
Like a squished frog

Dip your finger in my navel
And twist it slowly
Raise your arm up in the air
And swirl me
Like a fan in the football field

Tie my legs to my hair
Make a loop
Wear me like a wreath
Twirl me like a hula hoop

Wear my skin
Drink my blood
Speak in my voice
My own words

Come to me
With all your pain
Let me waste you
In a lowly lane

Let's be the
Saddest
Most
Pathetic
Tormented
Hideous
Souls

Let's be together
Right now
Till it rains

There is no forever
Never
Ever

Rain Ruined Relationship

As the rain falls outside
On the street in front of my house
On the plants outside my room
On the empty tea cup next to the old chair
There is only one thought on my mind
You
I want to ruin this sound for you
Forever
I want to travel with you on a bed
While it rains
I want to take your face in my hands
I want to brush my lips to yours
While it rains
I want to give you so much pleasure
While it rains
I am already past when I say this
I am past us not being together
I am past pain
And this thought is my only pleasure
That this sound
Pitter patter
Turns a switch in you
That your insides ache
Every time the clouds gather
This will be my memento
My moment
When I will still be with you
After all the heart break
At this moment you can turn around and say
Woman you are crazy
Coz we haven't even met yet
And I will say
Duffer
This is how much I desire you
That I devised a plan to stay on
Because I know we will meet
And then part ways
I want you to look up at the grey sky
and think of me
I want you to see the clouds
And feel the sheets
Every time a drop falls on you
I want you to remember the taste of my lips
I want to ruin rain for you
Forever
And you can ruin something for me too
But I choose rain
Because that's how you make me feel
Like dust and dirt
Kissing the first rain of summer
I promise you
A
Rain ruined relationship
This
I promise
