EVER-BURNING SULPHUR
"The fire-smouldering inside me from the last four Thermal summers and five inclement winters, More inflammatory and much more ruthless."

WHEN YOU WAKE UP?
"When you wake up? I am still waiting. Candles are to die. And the hearts are to break," writes the poet.
Poems
FLOWERS WITHER AWAY SOON
"Flowers wither away soon. The fragrance ends in a jiffy. And the charm doesn’t last for long. Gardens are watered to dry, Seeds are sown to die."
Poems
OUR HEARTS LEAVE US EVERY DAY
"Our hearts leave us every day, Without leaving traces behind. Dying in others' homes. And coming back to their homes is their habit."
Poems
LET US LIVE TODAY
"Let us live now. We have been dying so far. The weather is less gloomy, And human beings look healthier."
