Avinash Nair Poems

Those smiles of sadness
And tears of happiness,
Whispers of care
And shouts of despair,
...

“Alone” she said, “I wait”
And I could actually relate
Her to a bird with broken wings,
Caged to a word with broken hope
...

To my dearest,
I can wait for you in your absence,
I can hear you out in your silence.
I can define your sadness,
...

The subtle loneliness that hath,
Built its walls were crumbling,
As I ventured into that path
Of needs and belonging.
...

I have been on this lane before,
I have seen the disdain and more,
I have known this dark alley
These dark labyrinths,
...

What is the strange sadness that dwells in me?
Which wakes, sleeps, twirls and swells in me.
Is it the sadness of satisfaction?
Or is it because of dissatisfaction?
...

Remember to forget,
Forget the pains from your past,
They say, as they always do,
And if may you dare
...

When I die,
Bury me in those pages,
Which failed to become
My identity, my stages.
...

If only words were capable enough!
To articulate how I felt,
The delicate heaviness that dwelt
In the crevice of my heart,
...

Let's be lost in time,
For this is the best of the times
To be lost in.
Leave out a part of us back here,
...
