death scares me
as does life
but
it would be a lot easier
with you by my side

It is not about feminism
you raise your voice
you disrespect me
you lose me
because
it is not about feminism
but it is all about
self respect

your love
you loved me
but
not the way
I envisioned

her avatar
a simple metal pendant
faded red lips
sun tanned skin
old sari
chipped nails
discoloured nail paint
threadbare shawl
but those eyes
looking around
for someone
who would
like her
in that avatar
May12
no love
can you
ever
love the one
who
eons ago
bruised your body and mind
May4
time
it just slips away
the time
we have
on our hands
so
lets promise
ourselves today
to
make each moment
worthwhile

the child
I saw
childhood
begging on the streets
running nose
torn clothes
those tender feet
blistered
disheveled hair
I looked
for a sign
of hope
and there it was
in his eyes
the child in him
was speaking to me
