Not just another Saturday night

Us:
Part icebergs and dormant volcanoes,
Sharing anecdotes from past love stories
While 
Listening to love songs sung by ex-lovers,
Ex-flames, and ex-muses.

This much remains:
Smudged kajal; squinted gazes.

And a bit of self-imposed, incensed silences.

Us:
Islands unto ourselves scattered,
Across rivers of time and space,

Feeling certain songs and ghazals, 
As bridges,
Which trigger that immediate cause.

And in the aftermath of 
Our collision and eruption,

This much remains: 
Bliss, peace.

Aur thode khushi ke aansoon.

Hide and seek

Happiness is like my cat, Cookie. Every now and then, she plays hide and seek.

We're

Romantic. Chaotic. 
Geometric. Surrealistic.

Still. Motion.
Natural. Abstract.

Landscape. Portrait.
Existential. Modern.

Narrative. Symbolic.
Religious. Violent.

We're mere paintings 
Waiting to dry and be consumed.
