Yet again

You are gone
yet again
vanished
like the rainbow
on the yonder horizon
leaving me
utterly nonplussed

It’s hard to sync
life with days
when pushed back
to abandonment
and loneliness
yet again

Thoughts explodes
out of control
as life desists
in paused moments
and frozen times
Loneliness bites
splashing
bitter sensations
from  your  going

and its hard
yet again
as always
as ever
in fact harder
this time

I  am left staring
expectantly
for your return
though I know
you have just left

pamparamentally


A naughty smile
A hasty question
truant ways
pamparamentally
Amidst
growing concerns
my son grows
Let not the laughter fade
and playfulness die
I am not alone
I have you my son

Happy Valentine


Time has come its round
Valentine is here again
celebrations everywhere
love is in the air

I shall play my part as well
and wish you Happy Valentines
even though you are gone

Its for you to decide
if you should ever come back

or shall i carry on?

Am I a poet?


Am I a poet?
Can what I pen
be called Poems?
I ask myself
the mismatch
so surreal
It only baffles me

Nothing


What is Nothing?

Hmm…
Nothing is
not anything

Anything
That is something
is not nothing

Nothing is something
that isn’t anything?

Something is nothing
when it isn’t anything

So to say
plainly
Nothing is nothing
But no
Nothing isn’t nothing
It is anything
infact everything
Nothing is something

Nothing is empty
Nothing is void
Absurd, vacant
Nothing is zero
But zero has its value
So does nothing

aim less

Many a paths
lead to 
destination
But 
what purpose 
are the paths
when there is no 
destination

a snowy Thimphu night


the sky is overcast
snow descends
in flakes
on the barren willows
amidst the concrete jungles

the solitary moon
and the distant stars
have shied away
this chilly wintry night

only a lone me
breathes still
to see your face
in the snow

a little too late



send-great-flowers.
Am I a little too tardy
to hail the new year
Did I bid the yester year
a courteous bye?
and...
What about the resolutions
that all and sundry makes?
What have I been doing
all these days?


Hmm… I don’t know
I've woken up only now
Belated Happy New Year

a passing thought


Of what purpose are the name and fame?
when  life is just a briefly played game
the mundane realities one can’t disclaim
someday the inevitable death shall proclaim
what remains then for one to acclaim?

rains & sins


Sunny, moments ago
Heaven has opened up
all so suddenly
and pours down in showers
drenches me to my skin

May it cleanse
all the sins in me

If only sins could be washed

Paused musings


I’ve been rushed off my feet
off late
I’m running around
to catch full circle
hectically hustling
on tons demanding
my attention
wondering at life
offering many errands
that must be run
nonstop unto death
off to poems for a while
I shall not pen down the lines
Someday
When I shall be free
i shall catch my thoughts
and weave it in words
But for now
It’s paused musings

fatigued thoughts


I am fatigued
thinking of you
Aren’t you tired
crossing my mind
over and over again?
Why irk ourselves
Can’t we ease the gap
and be together
than visit each other
just in thoughts

earthquake (September 18, 2011)


source: kuenselonline.com
The walls rattled
The showcases
The cupboards
The photo frames
and everything
that there was to rattle
The lights blacked out
Everything was cursed
in absolute murk
as the world jolted
one and all trembled
Everyone knew that it was
Saw the end was nigh
As death came knocking
Bequeathing a close call
Leaving homes crumbled
Hearts grievously tormented
and lives put on the line

Home alone


Every day I come home
Swing the door open
and step in anxiously
Hoping to find you home
but you are never there
I scour the place
And still
there is not even a trace
not even footprints
unknowingly left
I sit on the couch
all alone
hoping you will walk in
any moment
Knowing you can’t stay away
But perhaps I am wrong
The air gets eerie
Loneliness gnaws
even memories hurt
As yesterdays flash alive
and I walk out dejected
Lest I go out of my mind
