Lenin Meitei Thingujam Poems
You rein in my wings,
And try to tame me.
“But what about my fiery breath? ” I ask you.
You smile and tell me you are a phoenix.
...
Am I standing still on a moving train?
`Cause I see things passing me by before my eyes
Let me take a moment
I want to savour these dried roses
...
I may be a Boho,
But I do save for a teary day.
See this piggy bank?
It holds your words-in-eclipse,
...
All day long, I`ve been studying signs;
But still I can`t find my way back home;
And the compass mocks me,
With its hand pointing north.
...
When I was small,
I was not so tall.
Used to go with mama dear,
To the park with my teddy bear.
...
Inch by inch I will move,
But move I will, nonetheless,
And not settle into
An algal crown.
...
Are you supposed to tell a story?
Or are you a mane of words in a messy head?
Are you an onion high on ethos?
Or are you just skin-deep like a beauty queen?
...
I want to carve your name in the sky,
And sing it to the tune of the whistling winds.
...
The winds shake my bones.
This life is in sepia tones.
I wake up and shrug off the cobweb.
I wish someone would pick up the tab.
...

The Best Poem Of Lenin Meitei Thingujam
Burning Bridges
You rein in my wings,
And try to tame me.
“But what about my fiery breath? ” I ask you.
You smile and tell me you are a phoenix.
I look back and see smoke rising.
I see the bridges I burnt down.
I want to fly back and reach out,
But my wings have been clipped.
I am a dragon.
And your eyes mirror our differences,
But you ask, “If a lock is the same as the key
How is it ever going to be opened? ”
The love in your eyes is on a high tide,
But I don`t know how to swim.
You tell me to take the plunge,
As I take your hand and stand on the edge.
I am scared, so scared.
I was the one who made you smile,
The one who made you rise.
What if I burn you down and fly away?
Your eyes hold me as I pull you near,
And our heartbeats race each other.
You whisper a song of notes divine,
As yesterday and tomorrow get blinkered out
Will God toss his coin and decide for us?
Or will we rewrite the lines on our palms?
Because you are a phoenix and I am a dragon.
Because I am a dragon and you are a phoenix.
